Time for Jack to take the cow to town and trade for some beans

I've pretty much narrowed it down to the following strains for a couple SOG's (in order of preference):

Pineapple Chunk (Pineapple x Skunk x Cheese) w/ uber THC and yield, pretty quick and easy to keep

LSD (Skunk #1 x Mazar) another THC heavy w/ good CBD's, high yield, not as quick as the Chunk but still pretty fast

G13 Haze (G13 x Hawaiian) Sativa - My Day-Quil

Red Dragon (Brazilian Sativa x West Himalayan Kush) Notice the trend? High THC & CBD's, high yield - not as high as the first two though and a tiny bit slower

Vanilla Kush (Indica dominant '09 Cannabis Cup winner) same character as above

I can do four of these five so I'm caught deciding between the Red Dragon and the Vanilla Kush as my number four. Any experiences, comments or suggestions?

The Indica's are my meds, but after I tried the Chunk for the first I couldn't recall what was wrong with me,... or my name,... or where I was,... or how I got there..., or how to speak...

You might find a useful range of stretchiness to choose amongst the different G13 Haze phenos, you probably will want some stretch so you can minimise veg time.

Personally I would pick strains from more than one seedbank to try to guarantee a good range of selections. Despite their blurb most seedbanks use a very limited selection of parent plants so often the different varieties they offer exhibit similarities.

If you have the money, DJ Short has some legit genetics (blueberry), so does Shantibaba- the breeder behind Mr Nice seedbank. "Medicine Man" (Once called White Rhino) might be ideal or "El Nino" might have a little more stretch.

DNA Genetics make some good seeds. LA confidential is the only one I've tried- there's almost no stretch and the veg time is glacial so it's probably out for your purposes but they do do one called Connie Chung (who thought of that one?) that is la con x g13 x neville's haze which should suit your needs.

KCBrains and Nirvana do some bargains but it sounds like you're looking for some knock down power so maybe theirs aren't the best in this instance.

There's surely plenty more options out there but those I can definitely recommend.


I wouldn't pay too much attention to breeder's claimed THC content, they can get away with claiming just about anything.

Smaller numbers of each so you can have em all?
I would run the red dragon instead of the vanilla just because it wasn't an 09 cannabis cup winner.
But sometimes I just like to be contrary

The logos behind this grow is root'em and flower, so yeah...the veg time is to be de minimus.

Excellent point that I hadn't considered.
I am such a willing consumer...well conditioned by decades of Madison Avenue's best efforts to destroy my free will. I am but another consumptive whore amongst the lemmings.

Medicine Man and Chung sound very interesting. I'll take a look later today.

I think the Chunk and LSD pretty much cover the coma clout, at least for me (mr. lightweight), but I wasn't looking strictly for sledge hammers. A little more Merry Prankster and a little less Three Stooges is nice for those times when I still have to try an function in society.

I'm shocked! You mean to tell me I've been lied to...again!? And by sales people no less. Next thing ya know we won't be able to believe a word coming out of our clergy, lawyers or politicians either. Sorry, that was redundant wasn't it, they are all one in the same?

Thanks for the insights.

I suffer from, fully embrace and revel in the same dysfunctional mindset. As soon as someone says sit down I immediately stand up and start questioning why the fuck they want me to sit down and how are they tryin' to fuck me this time. What can I say...trust and anger issues all rolled into one, (I think the nice people at the hospital called it O.D.D. - Oppositional Defiance Disorder, or maybe they were just referring to me as "odd"...who the fuck knows?).

I also have this OCD thing goin' on where I want equal numbers in each of the two grow cabs, so adding one is a more likely solution.
