Hey subcool, first off thanks for being The Green Avenger. I picked up a high times the other day and holy moly, its subcool and some serious gear. What a nice suprise, congrats on that.
Now on to the business at hand. What TGA strain would you recommend for a ebb & flow sea of green? Ideally i'm looking for something that will stay short, yield high and taste great. (isn't everybody?) I just cant seem to pick one out.
Thanks again for being so accessable. What you're doing is appreciated!

Everyone considering my gear should grow
Jack the Ripper
Vortex
These are the pinnacle of my works.
Here are some of the grower reports turned in on Vortex
I tend to keep herb for the enjoyment of the buzz only secondary to the enjoyment of the flavor, so you can probably assume without a reasonable doubt that this pheno tastes great. Secondly this herb has a very unique buzz, which I will try to explain from two peoples point of views. My wife says that this Vortex tastes like a tropical fruit smoothie made with sour cream, I assume she means she finds it has a fruity taste with a sour secondary. Her experience with the buzz is very energetic, she can not smoke anywhere near bedtime as it keeps her mind awake even though her body is drained. Now me, it tastes like Apollo of old with a slight sour undertone, for anyone who had the pleasure of growing or smoking real Apollo…. very apollo ”YOU DIG”. I find the buzz to be very heady and quite effective for reliving aches, make sure munches are available because your stomach knows not the powers of Vortex. This Vortex Phenotype is not a huge yielder, and will not win any beauty contests that’s for sure but for someone who has a connoisseur palette the genetic makeup of Vortex makes for some mighty stony, awfully tasty herb, Peace and keep well. SpeakersRfun
7 Females from 10 seeds. Three strongest kept for further testing. The four flowered might as well have been clones. Some subtle differences while growing and start of flowering but the end products almost looked identical. I went 70 days, it could have gone longer (hoping faster by clone) This is what my back and head is enjoying the most. Friends I've let sample have all said the same thing ... "I've never had herb like this before". Its just much different from any commercial, all TGA gear is that way when it comes down to it, spent two years in Van recently and bought a lot of high end commercial and had nothing even remotely close to this herb. Ya it all looks insane ( the commercial) but its just like tomatoes at the supermarket, all looks.
Very gooey obviously. Definitely more sativa and has a very pungent sour tropical fruit/ammonia smell that no ziplock can confine. Two tokes is all that's needed for this med user but of course we rarely stop there when it tastes this good. Finger sized joint, inhale ... pack the lungs ... push it deeper ... EARS tingling .... EARS ringing .... exhale and mellow rush comes over the body. Inhale ... pack lungs ... push it deeper ... ears ringing .... eye's getting floaters and stars ... exhale and paterns start to form on the carpet and ceiling if you let your focus fade.
Repeat .... repeat ..... repeat ...... testing .... Major Tom to ground control .... its so beautiful up here man! Very High with slight body stone, found myself thinkin' "man, I'm high as sh$t" but totally in control. Positive , positive meds. If you just "smoke" your joint ya you'll get wrecked, but if you really take it deep and pack your lungs taking all you can from this stuff ... that's where you need to be.
No ceiling, smoke more ... more high .... smoke more .... more high No burn out, but you sleep well at the end of the day. You may also be stoned part of the next day.

I would also like to include this amazing Smoke report:
Breeder: Subcool/TGA
Strain: VORTEX
Lineage if known: Apollo 13 x Space Queen
Grower: Dame900rr
Judge: PapaDank A.K.A "The pot snob"
Type (sativa/indica ratio): 80/20 (Breeder description) Sample appeared to have slightly higher "body" feel than the 20% listed above. Maybe 70/30.
EYE APPEAL
<9> Density
<10> Aroma (Best described as a sweet, lemony, floral, "leathery" smell. To date, This strain and JTR are the best samples I've ever smelled. Both from the same grower)
COMMENTS: This report is based on samples received to me by another grower. I did not grow this sample. Based on that, I feel my description is accurate and fair.
Visual/Smell - The well grown sample used in this report was gorgeous. Copious, visible trichomes adorned her "velvety", pale green bud. She was like cotton candy to the feel. A true sign of not only her superior genetics, but also a sign of a well grown bud. I opened the plastic bag she was in and took a deep smell. The first thing I noticed was sweet "perfumy", "leathery" smell with a light hint of lemon and a hashy finish. It was similar to a perfume my niece wore when she was a little girl. Very "sweet" and floral. Once I removed the bud from the bag, the lemon, industrial smell really started to come through. When I broke the bud up, the industrial, piney, lemon smell was over powering. It took a while to make it to my bowl as I was mesmerized at all the smells I was enjoying. I've never smelled anything like in my life.
The SMOKE: Once the sample finally made it to my bowl and I hit the flame, the first taste I noticed was a heavy pine, industrial, lemon pledge thing that finshed with a little hash. It was amazing. Her soft, sweet smells were short lived when the reality of Vortex came through. First hit was lung expanding! Her smoke was almost toxic. It was so strong. My nose tingled and she made short work of my lungs. I was shocked and not expecting that. 100% expectorant the lungs She is a deceptive one for sure! Once the coughing stopped and the lungs were cleared, I had a sweet smell left in my nose and on my face. I smelled it for hours.
The High: The high to me, was very similar to a great Haze. I had that warm, happy euphoric feeling. Makes a dark, rainy, winter day nice. I would have liked to be in a cabin in the mountains on this smoke. I noticed that listening to Bluegrass/mountain music was really nice on Vortex. Although not as " Trippy" and visual as JTR, still great none-the-less. Very creative feeling overall happy feeling was experienced on Vortex. She ended with the giggly, everything is funnier than it should be feeling (you all know what i'm talking about).
Medicinal efficacy-Vortex has been a better pain killer than JTR for some reason. To be fair, I was smoking both together the first day I got this, but the Vortex seemed to make it better. This report is under the influence of Vortex only. Maybe it's this sample. Vortex is great for depression, anxiety and pain for medical users, although I suggest using higher amounts for pain relief. Simply put, this weed makes you happy and feel good. Almost at peace.
Conclusion- Vortex is one of the best strains I've ever smoked. This was made easy by the fact it was grown and well cured by a really good grower. Vortex and JTR have some of the best "highs" and smells you'll ever experience. So much so, I have decided to buy everthing I can afford for my medical tent and get rid of everything else except for my keeper G13/WW/NL cut. This was my first time smoking any TGA gear and I now know what I've been missing. I can still smell this strain in my head. I can only hope and pray what I grow will even come close to this sample. Time will tell.

A Green Avenger always passes the first hit to whomever he/she is smoking with.What is a Green Avenger? I have put a lot of thought into this and there is of course a story behind it all.
Long ago before there was a Subcool or Overgrow or even a decent Cannabis web site I bought an Acer 133 Computer and got a dial up account. The net wasnt as organized back then and one of the things I found to occupy some time on this expensive contraption was build a web site. Now lacking skill I just grabbed a template and some wav sounds and grateful dead dancing bears and I put together a single page web site.
It was called The Green Avenger and I detailed the good about Cannabis and the Bad about the ass hats trying to put my friends and me in jail for smoking and growing it.
As the net expanded and other sites opened up I started contributing less and less to my site and eventually it went down. The founding idea of fighting back by teaching and sharing knowledge took a giant leap when I was arrested for growing weed and fucked around in the penal system watching truly evil people spend less time inside than myself.
This formed a desire in me to do more and I started sending Buds, Clones, and eventually Seeds to everyone I met online to create an Army of Green Avengers. I figured if enough people grew reefer that eventually the laws would have to change. Well I under estimated the bad guys but in the same turn they have under estimated The Green Avengers as well.
People world wide grow my gear and have taken up my fight even if theyre not aware of it. Every pack of seeds sent is another soldier in my peaceful farming army.
Twelve years later the battle continues and now people grow using my methods and breed new strains using my base line genetics and I could not be prouder.
Mission Accomplished!
So what is a Green Avenger today?
A Green Avenger is the guy or girl you know that has the Dankest reefer and the coolest bongs.
You can tell when ones in the room because everyone will be smoking their bud and asking them questions.
A Green Avenger always shows up with gift buds and seeds and cookies and Tincture for his friends.
If you visit the secret hide out of a Green Avenger you will leave confused and higher than you were the last time you visited.
A Green Avenger gets very busy and goes into hiding every 60 days. ( Trimming)
A Green Avenger cleans the bong way to often and is obsessed with clean water and ice. ( Masterchief420)
A Green Avenger will smoke his last joint or bowl with you if asked.
( Kareem)
A Green Avenger has perlite scattered all over the yard and garden.
A Green Avenger comes to a smokeout with his own bud usually 3-4 kinds.
(Jem777)
A Green Avenger visits his buddy in Jail!
(Badboy)
I need help with more of these so post up yours and they may get added to the master list
Find Subcool online and create the coolest Weedsite ever!

I'm trying to decide between a couple of your strains. I'm stuck on jillybean, querkle, agent orange, and chernobyl. I want something that sends me soaring high with an exceptional taste and from a good to great yield. Is that too much to ask for? lol.

Dudes..im not sub's buddy or anything so its no sales pitch when i say just buy'em all man, buy the few packs your "thinking about". JTR..$60..Agent Orange..$50..etc..etc..cmon man. Sick ass genetics for these prices. He even sells fuckin 5 packs for $25-30 of all the shit, get 5 packs n try a bunch, go back n get a 10 or another 5 pack when u get the money if u really like the shit. GGrrr drives me crazy man..5 packs man, have at it..u can "try" 4 different strains for the price of one on other sites for shit u know may be sketchy..cmon man..seeeerriousslly

Oh trust me, I'd LOVE to! I think I would create too many problems for myself that way though. For one, due to his high female:male ratio, I would be with more than the legal amount already off of one pack. I don't mind going over the plant limit indoors but when I do outdoors I stay legal.. for the most part. I just can't have a backyard FULL of plants. I just bought Qleaner last night hoping to get one of the pink/purple phenos and I have chernobyl on bid atm as well. Have you tried any?

A Green Avenger acknowledges beauty but denies perfection!
A Green Avenger will always refer to that one pheno that they slept on and didnt clone!

Subcool, thanks for being TGA!
I'm looking to order some seeds in the U.S. (not a medicinal state)...can you point me in the right direction? I looked around on the UK sites you posted a couple pages back, but couldn't find any US specific info/prices/etc...
It's comforting knowing there is a real (enough) super-hero out there!

Thanks Subcool! You've got some nice strains at reasonable prices--what's up with $330 seeds anyway?
I'm gonna order a pack of Chernobyl as soon as I find a place to ship it that isn't my house...

Also, do you recommend using bidzbay from the US? I'm just worried about international shipping...I guess hempdepot is international too (but less international than the UK...or something...)
You're reviews look solid though, and people in the midwest have apparently had good success...I just get so weirded out about getting caught...

RELAX!!! as the brits say" bob's your uncle!"...in this case, literally!... guess what I got today in the mail from harborne!!!...here's a weird hint: "sweet nancy was so fancy...to get into her pants, we had to feed the aristocracy....so we put her on the hitlist...of a common cunning linguist...a master of many tongues!"... sorry...I'm just a huge deep purple fan! I have the querkle, it's a definite keeper. I'm kinda' sketchy about pure clone only's around here( loss of vigor through 8000 clone of a clones)...also, the clone only erkle is kinda weak on firepower imo.
