2x Jack Frost x ???

Can actually have 24 but would rather 2 and hope one is female at least.

Currently have some Girl Scout Cookies myself :D yeah menthol dough minty kushy taste sounds right, I follow a lot of growers on IG and the plants never pack the buds on like other strains but the fade to black on the leaves and the maturing of the buds is amazing to see :drool: Definitely a low temperature strain, top 10 stuff for me.

I should start by saying tonight, when my Haze arrives, will be my first experience with vaporizing my cannabis. However, since Colorado legalization, I have been able to try quite a few. Personally, I am a little dismayed at the trend toward higher and higher THC percentages both because I am a lightweight, and because I think this focus on THC excludes so many wonderful strains and the resulting different "highs" or benefits.
That being said, the first strain I look forward to vaping will be Blueberry. Love this for relaxing me at bedtime and, when taken by bong, there is this cool taste, almost like menthol, in my mouth. Just considering how it will taste without all the burn has me anxious for delivery!
I love Jack Flash - for me, it is a strong head high that gets me going.
LA Confidential for sleepy times is very relaxing.
Recently tried a hybrid available at a local dispensary, named Yumboldt 06, which is supposed to be a Sativa Dom hybrid. When I looked it up online, it said it was bred from 2 indica strains, so I found that curious. It did not produce as strong of a head high as Jack Flash, which is good because I have to be careful with JF about dosing or I get a little panicky. Y06 was a smooth hit and I look forward to vaping it as well to see how it really tastes.
Early on in my sampling, I was not as good about recording my likes and dislikes. The ones I did not enjoy I cannot remember.
I like Jilly Bean, but cannot remember specific effects.
I have Golden Goat and Headband to try soon as well. Golden Goat is one I am cautious about because the dispensary marked it as 27% THC. A friend and our budtender recommended it.
Love the FC forums, and I have really enjoyed this thread!

Welcome!

You have already begun documenting! :) I have a small moleskine notebook for that purpose. It's still blank, of course, but I do have one.

I do not yet have a Haze vaporizer. I am very intrigued by the concept. If you decide that you like how vaping treats the herb (and you!), you might consider a tethered model, such as a log vape, or a whip vape, multi-purpose sort.... it's all good, however. :)

Enjoy!

I'd really love to try some original skunk #1again before it got messed with to reduce the odour. sour sweaty feet skunk smell as opposed to the fruitier one you get today.

Get yourself some cheese ... very popular uk clone that is old skool skunk. Very pungent aroma of antiseptic berry funk. Everything round here is 'cheese' ... the real stuff is good tho.

I usually avoid cheese as it's usually bollocks cropped early weak genetics and nothing like the original Skunk#1 pheno that became cheese.

There used to be a great hack doing the rounds called nebula cheese about 10 years ago.

Ah fair enough, yes lots of 'cheese' going round that isnt the real deal. However proper cheese can be a great representation of a real old school skunk. If you want the real deal no1 Shantibaba has it but renamed as shit. Funny you said about the nebula cheese ... theres been some nebula going round my way recently. Its actually really nice ... LOTS of trichomes.

I did see some seed bank selling nebula cheese seeds not sure how close they are.

While it remains illegal cheese smells too much for its own good imo the nebula had a far more psychedelic high than old clone cheese but even more hum.

There used to be another clone only called Tootie Frootie had the exact smell as the sweets. It was a great indica dom. I see a tutti fruiti on leafly but that says sativa.

If any of you are sativa lovers and get a chance to grab some Kilimanjaro, I strongly urge you to do so.

It's originally a landrace sativa from Kenya and much like African coffees, this one is one of my absolute favorites.

My current favorites are J1, a hybrid of Skunk #1 and Jack Herrer, Nice Sativa high for daytime use
Pre 98 Bubba Kush does the trick for me at night before going to bed. A nice Indica

The Pre-98 was a free gram for bringing in a new patient and the J1 was my first purchase using Eaze, both indoor nice buds.

Hi all,

So it seems everyone in the world but us Aussies is smoking better herb than we get. Let me explain. On the East Coast of Australia, you will almost always find the same, very dense, unnamed strain with very hairy orange buds. It is almost always poorly cured, and stored horribly by whoever sells it. I know people who have had dealers tell them that there's is good because it was stored tightly wrapped in cling wrap in the fridge! The stuff is almost always starting to smell of ammonia, either wet from improper curing/storage or dry and almost moldy due to improper curing and air drying.

However, on occasion, you find some of the great medical strains getting over here. LA Confidential and Sublime have made appearances. Sublime is just a beautiful plant. I find that it generates major cloudage compared to the stuff you usually find around here. LA Confidential was incredible, but rare and not around for long.

So what's your favourite strain? Give us Aussies some serious envy!


I know this post is old but, As you know I am also a Sydney sider. What area you in because I in have no trouble finding chronic. My connect always has good stuff at good prices, yeah every so often he might get some under average quick grow crappy looking mj but 95% of the time its grade a stuff. I have recently got white widow , white rhino and silver haze. Most the time its an unknown strain but every month or so a named strain will appear and it blows my brain. those crappy asian buds you mentioned above I only come across it once in a blue moon usually when everyone in the area goes dry.

favourite strain that's hard. This year home grown train wreck

I love the White Rhino. It's an older strain that's been around for years here in the states. White Window is one of those that I like the feel but hate the taste.

I've been having some anxiety today hopefully the Tahoe Og that I'm using right now will help out. It's a nice heavy hitter. One of my fav strains. I have several and always finding new ones like Blue Kush.

agree on the white widow taste.
yes white rhino is a golden oldie. Even in Australia, We tend to get a lot of older strains but they are old for a reason because they chronic and get the job done. I hope some Tahoe will ease the anxiety I know it will heheh

Super Silver Haze ... the greatest modern haze hybrid

Btw Super lemon haze aint got no lemon skunk in it ... its just a ssh pheno. Same as amnesia haze .. another ssh pheno. Oh ye sage too ... and according to Neville nyc diesel is part of the nl haze family too!

Hindu Kush was the best strain I ever had. A real heavy hitting 'pass out with your vape in your hand' pure indica. G13 is a close second - phenomenal relaxation and couchlock. Unfortunately I rarely come across strains like these as it seems sativa dominant strains are preferred in the UK, which is a shame as some sativas really set my anxiety off.

All my days in a daze...
I love my favourite strain so much I had to buy the hat pin and then have a photo shoot :D

Everything I've read says it's Lemon Skunk x Super Silver Haze. Is it not one of Arjan's creations? http://www.greenhouseseeds.nl/shop/super-lemon-haze-feminised.html

Sorry but Arjan is a hack ... If you do research it is widely known that he has no breeding skills. Greenhouse used to be a decent seedbank in the 90s ... then shatibaba and neville left and went on to there own ways leaving arjan to take over. Shantibaba took all the world class mothers and formed mr nice seeds.

Why do you think greenhouse has only feminised seeds? Because they dont have proper parents. They just find a good pheno and make s1. As for slh being a lemon skunk x haze. It's highly unlikely ... head over to mr nice forums and most experienced growers there recognise it as a ssh pheno.

Also look at shantibaba is respected as one of the finest cannabis breeders. He is the driving force behind cbd crew which are the first seedbank to produce stabilised cbd rich varietys. And many other seedbanks use cbd crew to enrich there own varietys. He is the real deal.

I wouldnt trust anything Arjan produces that guy has bad karma.

There are a lot of amnesia themed cuts going about.

I've had Amnesia Haze (the hybrid amnesia x haze) amnesia lemon (amnesia x lemon skunk) and amnesia kush which is very skunky and none of them imo are not as good as SLH never tried SSH.

Luckily in my corner of the UK I get some heavy hitters and bubble hash which turns a Sativa into the right strain for me.
