Dutch Passion = crap! (we didn't grow out all their strains, so please take this comment on face value)!

peace n flowers ALL

Youre scarin me man! I have a bb mom that i got from DP seeds several years ago and i thought i would buy a couple of packs and hunt some more. According to Dj, his current blueberry is from "new" and different genetics. I'm fond of his original work so i dont feel as i have any choice but to buy from DP because unless there's something i dont know, theyre still selling the original strain. I expect to find a few nanners and a twisted leaf or 3 ..... but I have the impression that you research such things so your statement has me staring at my money order with apprehension!? Can you expand on those comments?


Petrola Headstash is a god awful pack of seeds. One of the worst strains ive ever grown

As of now my biggest disappointment was with BOG strains.

Bogbubble

Sour Bubble

Sour Lifesaver.
None of them smelled or tasted like bubblegum. Bogbubble high and yield are average. Most of the phenos from the sours are just stem with no bud. The high is boring (Sour lifesaver is nice to sleep though) and they take an absurd amount of time in veg (even with cmh lamp, best nuts and 85% humidity).
Also all of them turn Hermy in the last weeks of flowering if they are not in the perfect growing conditions. All in all, complete waste of my time and money.

sounds like other factors were at play, not genetics
my 1st grow(indoor) and I grew 5 Bog strains.
SB and SLS were a AAA bomb in potencty and nowhere near all stem like yours? that sounds like enviromental/grow issuses.
one of my bogbubbles tasted like hash.
even with my n00b 1st time grower mistakes they were extemely easy and stress free to grow.
they nearly grew themsleves imo

The White...most over hyped strain in history.....those crystals are fools gold ..... boring taste and high.....

To real stoners...who need str8 dank to get blown...the White doesnt get the job done...its kinda sad its being used in so many crosses....

also Alien Kush...... shit is no better then 6 outta 10 on potency....

dramamine

Dutch Pation - Frisian Dew
Sour D clones that are anything but Sour D. (in cali)
Romulan (most the cuts out there, the real deal is amazing)
Tangerine Dream - New seeds but 0% germ rate.


It's interesting about the Tangerine Dream...I was gifted a five pack of these beans and they are all pale and look immature to me.

I have to wonder, is this strain just some elaborate marketing ploy? Anyone have a good experience with it (other than those who smoked a grip of it for free in Amsterdam)?

The first time it could be my error for some part because I always had high temps in my cab. But now I'm growing in a badass new place with everything tuned in. Still the sour Bubbles are mostly just stem. I would have no problem with it if they were the bomb but it's just average smoke and the taste+smell is just absolutely awful.

So these are the reasons:
Too freaking long in veg. I almost die of old age before they grow a few inches in veg.
Awful yield: plants in 10l pots yield like 10g (with the full line of House & Garden nuts that make other strains yield 90g)
They don't tolerate heat well and some of the phenos might end up hermying. (This is no longer a problem for me as I have a new place and perfect temps)
Horrible smell and taste, boring high/stone (although in the high/stone department there are much worst strains).

Overall, yes, all things considered these were the worst I grew. Out of 30 seeds I found 0 plants with decent taste or smell and 1 with nice high (Bogbubble pheno). None of the 30 seeds smelled or tasted anything like bubblegum. :/

Maybe I just got extremely unlucky but I don't like these kind of 30 to 1 odds.

Nonsense,, hermies are generic,, like club-foot.

Slack breeders like to claim the 'grower' is incapable,, when in reality.. stable strains NEVER herm even with light-leaks (tried and tested). They just trying to explain away their weak Thai genetics in their strains and make the crap they write online gospel ... IMO/E dont buy into it!

peace

Exactly, I have some strains that wouldn't Hermie if they grew in a nuclear waste land, some Hermie if they are abused, and some hermie just because they feel like it.

Mine well I have a few but the ones I can remember lol lol.. GHS WW real shit !!!!!!!! and expensive they truely SUCK!!!!!

This one took me by surprise as everyone was raving about this shit but I got some real shit here org's OG Kush reg. from Cali Conn pooped 8 seeds white small seeds 1/2 works I knew they looked bad but I thought I would see. 5 months in they nannered on me real waste of time and $165.00 . I emailed swerve and he didn't get back to me .:dunno: not looking for anything or more of his shit lol lol.. fool me once and all that shit. Lots of these guys just start up with different names. Find a good breeder and stick with him. Fuck the assholes that fuck with the seeds. peace out Headband707

Yeah i second that immature beans from swerve i bought Tahoe and sfv from a club shit was wack only a few cracked and i know how to germ beans. This was when the Tahoe was first released i wanted it so bad i overlooked the white beans.... mistake on my part.
