Best Serious Seeds Strain

[GreenphoeniX]

Which strain do you think is the best!?

Also feel free to comment on which strain you think, (or know!), would perform best in an Aeroponic setup!

These strains are available directly from the Serious Seeds online store or via The Attitude Seed Bank and other similar sites.

Chronic has a short veg. & flower times.

However, all commercial strains do, they also tend to give a narcotic stone.

AK-47 is in the lead!

I've heard good things about Kali Mist, it's biggest down fall being it's long flowering time, but 10-12 weeks isn't bad for a plant that is said to be 90% Sativa!

You asked for an opinion, this is why I chose Chronic...

Serious Seeds Chronic

• 
  [*]Winner of The Spanish Highlife Cup 2004 - 1st Prize
  [*]3rd prize High Times Cannabis Cup 1994

• 
  [*]Type: sativa/indica hybrid
  [*]Indoor clone grow time: 5?10 days
  [*]Indoor flowering time: 56-63 days
  [*]Indoor yield: 350?600 grams/m2
  [*]
  [*]Outside/Greenhouse harvest time: 15-31 October Improved in 2000. This is one of the best choices for growers tired of losing quality when increasing yield.
  This is one of the most commercial varieties, this medium height, not too dense plant is the perfect combination of good yield and excellent quality. Smokers that know and grow choose this plant for its combination of appearance and sweet smell. With its indica background Chronic can produce up to 600 g/m2 without losing that connoisseur feeling. Grows a single huge central bud with few side branches. Do not top plants to encourage multiple big buds, as this strain does not respond well. Mild, sweet smell develops while flowering, take care to dry thoroughly after harvest (before packaging) to maintain this subtle fragrance.

Without a doubt, Serious Seeds are the best genetics available to the general public. I know there are those that are AS good but IMHO, you can't get better than Serious Seeds. I have grown 4 of their 5 strains.

My order is like this...
1. Kali Mist - The absolute best plant that I have ever grown. I have probably made more posts about Kali Mist than any other strain. She is a beauty. Although she can be tempermental from time to time, she is easy to grow and a pleasure to smoke. Her high is "one of a kind"...She has a fragrance that is sorta spicy but intoxicating and a flavor that is just as unique. I am currently on my 4th grow of Kali Mist and she just keeps getting better. I still don't have her dialed in yet but in spite of ME, she continues to spit out huge, resin coated buds. The high is very long lasting and has no ceiling. The more you smoke the higher you get. Its a "thinking mans" high. On a side note...women absolutely flock to the stuff like a moth to a flame. Once they get a taste of Kali, they will follow you around like a puppy dog. I can't explain it, I just roll with it.

You know how you can get a good hybrid or some couchlock indica and after awhile, you don't get any higher? Well, Kali Mist will just keep on raising the bar. I have had friends actually say they believe you could OD on the stuff. Once you smoke Kali Mist, you will judge cannabis in a whole new light.

2. White Russian - Like all serious strains, this one grows huge, huge buds. It can take pretty much everything you throw at it. Very nute friendly and will produce regardless of what you throw at it. At the time I grew it, I had no experience but it was the best meds I had grown. The high will knock you on your ass. I am serious (no pun) this stuff will take your legs out from under you faster than you realize. The smell is very pungent and you better have some good odor control when you grow this beauty. At the time, I wasn't taking clones so like a dumbass I did not get to grow it but one time. I still have some beans and I will grow this again.

3. Ak-47 - The AK pheno I had was a bit harder to grow than I had hoped. It may have been my temps being a lil high (85 degrees) but the girls I had was a constant struggle. Even with the issues I had, I still got about 3 OZ's off of 2 plants. This one was a "stinker" as well and it was the reason I learned more about odor control.

The buds were very thick and resin coated. The high was a fun type of high...one that allows you to enjoy time with friends without the bleeding eyes and slobber running out of your mouth. This was NOT a one hit quitter like advertised but it was a long lasting high that never got old. The taste was a bit of a let down to me but again, It was early on in my growing career so I have no doubts I could do better if I ran this gear again...and I will.

4. Chronic - This plant starts out growing buds. I have never grown a plant that grew as many buds or as big a buds as Chronic. If I was ever going to grow to sell, this would be the strain I would choose. It clones easy...grows easy...produces huge yields...great bag appeal...a very narcotic stone that will get your attention fast. I grow in 4 gal buckets and I swear, the root ball from chronic was nothing but roots. I don't know what happened to the dirt but when I looked at the roots they were everywhere. Again, this is Serious Seeds and the type of genetics you get. All their plants produce roots like no other.

Sorry about the long post but I may not know much about growing but I do have alot of hands on experience with Serious Seeds gear. You will get consistant plants from everyone of their strains. Anytime someone tries Serious Seeds gear, it seems like they ALWAYS rave about them. You can't go wrong with any of the strains but if I had to choose just one, it would be easily KALI MIST!

Here are a few pics of my Kali at 35-42 days. Also, go check out Bonemans journal on his Kali Mist grow. That guy has some skills. Good luck and remember, you can't go wrong with any of Serious Seeds gear.

Its just so funny to hear why diff ppl like diff strains! One can never go off someone else's judgment on this shit, 'cause ya never know if the other person enjoys the same high you do. But, hell, I rarely get high, I just get right

Cheers for the great post! ... Very good to get an opinion from someone actually experienced with these strains... Have you ever seen how Kali Mist performs in an aero setup? ... I planned on getting Kali Mist and one other strain, the reason I made this thread/poll was to find the other strain!

Cheers again for the great info!

A good point... But generally I find that people who know their sh!t bout weed tend to know the difference between a nice 'high' and a 'stone' - Very generally terms, I know, but for me at least, it says a lot! haha

I have no experience with aero but go check out Bonemans journal. He is growing in Hempy buckets and his Kali is beautiful. Jump in his thread and I am sure he or others will give ya some good info.

You obvious have done your research and I gotta give ya props for that. Regardless of what other strain you choose, it will be a good one. Make sure and keep us updated on your grow. I love to see how others are growing the same strain from the same breeder as I am.

@where the hell am I - I use to never understand why there were so many strains. Once I started growing different strains, I finally saw the rest of the story. You can lineup 10 growers and their top strain would all be different. You got these people that won't smoke anything unless it is purple. Hell, I have smoked all kinds of purple and I get burned out on it pretty quick. I am just not that impressed. No doubt, I would be the exception to that rule but it just goes to show ya how everyone has a different palate for their meds.

One of the main reasons I always choose Kali Mist when discussing "best strains" is the fact there is no tolerance buildup that you get with 75% of the strains I have contact with. I have been smoking Kali Mist on a regular basis for over a year and I get as high now as I did the first time I ever smoked it. That alone would make most strains stabd out but then factor in the smell and taste and its a pretty impressive plant.

However, a majority of ppl on here like weed that I cant get around here, cause it isnt the kinda high I like. I dont like to be tweakin! I wanna not hurt, not move, just be. All of these strains just get me a lil stoned, and make my thoughts race, wen I want the opposite!

Yeah man, it really is personal preference when it comes down to it. I tend to dislike 'commercial strains' because they give me a heavy stone that puts me to sleep ... I get that that's some people thing, and that's what they're looking for, that's why those strains exist.
Personally, I like to be capable of being social, even if that mean socially high! lol ... And doing active things like going on all day hike through bush and mountain ranges... But that's just me!

I'm surprised you're the only one who's mentioned White Russian ... Everyone talks about how great White Widow is and how is so ultimate, and everyone talks bout how awesomely great AK-47 is... Yet nobody talks about the cross of the two that make the mega plant White Russian! lol.

I highly recommend you look into Aero if you choose to move away from soil at some stage ... Even a basic system (such as the one I run) kicks ass!
Bubbler Buckets can be effective too!

I've posted these pics like 4 times already haha, but it's a great demo of how good aero is!
This is 7 days growth in my basic aero system ... 7 DAYS
So the later pics are the plants at the end of Week 2 veg from rooted clones!

These are some nice pics of when I first experimented with bubbler buckets!

Classic Soil (AK-48 - Nirvana) (Nirvana are great seeds to learn to grow with! - They're cheap and not bad quality, but you do get what you pay for to an extent, but no point growing expensive strains until you know how to grow!)

 

[Rocky Top High]

SWEET! +Rep to you. Thats very impressive growth.

I won't say NEVER no to areo but I am an old grower who loves to play in dirt. I grow for the meds but I also get some great therapy out of mixin my soil...messin with my girls...I love the smell of rich, well mixed dirt. I don't do it for any other reason than the fact I like growing that way. Sorta like the different strains for different folks. Once I get my mind wrapped around aero, I am sure I will be more "excited" but right now, time is not something I have.

You are going to absolutely LOVE Kali Mist. If you want a high that MAKES you get out and go, Kali Mist will deliver. I am willing to bet you could not lay down and sleep after getting ripped on Kali. It's not that jittery buzz...it's a happy buzz. It lets you down easy too. You don't get that crash that you get with some other strains. I don't like cannabis hangovers and Kali is as far from that "feeling" as I know.

White Russian, for some reason, doesn't get the love that it deserves. I think most just over look it. It is without a doubt the most "kick you in the gut" kinda high as I have ever smoked. Seriously, you need to be careful with White Russian, she will slap you silly. I still have over 2 OZ's of my last harvest of Russian. A lil bit goes along way.

Cheers mate.

I know the feeling, I stuck with soil a long time, and wasn't that keen to even move into aero, but am glad I gave it a go! ... I'm just saying that if you choose to move into the confusingness of hydro tek ... Go for aero! 'Cause it delivers! Haha.

Kali sounds like my kinda high! And if White Russian is that extreme I might have to give it a go, it's something you can't really get in my area so if I'm the only one with it, it will be very popular with the mates... I'll save Kali for the ladies lol!

Thanks again for all the great info and opinions! Feel free to continue to chime into any of my threads with those long posts! haha

Yea, I guess I can get kinda long winded when I have passion about something.

White Russian and Kali Mist were unheard of strains in my neck of the woods...until I started growing it. Everyone has purple something and everyone has Kush something but no one had a clue about some of these other strains.

I don't sell my weed, it's for personal medication and for those that have no access for these type of meds. However, I do like to make sure and get as many people high as I can and once word got out about Kali and White Russian, I was more popular than a rock star. No one, I mean no one, knows I grow it. They just know I have access to it. Honestly, I could flip a quarter a week just through my close network of friends if I wanted to. The elite genetics are very rare from my area. It's pretty cool to be at a party and listen to people rave about the herb I grow, even though they have no idea that I am the one growing it.

The best part is, it's actually not me, it's the genetics. All I do is give'em a lil love...feed them what they want and stay the hell out of the way. It's all in the genetics and thats why Serious Seeds have such a strong name in the industry.

From what I have seen, you have a good understanding of how to grow Cannabis. Your pics of Nirvana are sweet. Once you get your Serious gear, you will be stunned at how those beans literally blow up in size and potency right before your eyes.
Good luck and thanks for allowing me to get on my soapbox and preach about Serious Seeds.

Haha cheers mate. And you're welcome. I can only hope serious seeds are as good as you say, and I will find out before long!

Have a good one!

Im still partial to my White Widow.... But sounds like Kali is my next seed order !!!!


Thanks for the info

Hey if White Widow is your thing then maybe White Russian would be worth checking out ... Sounds good if you want a shorter flowering time than the Kali Mist.

Strange thing is, on the poll at the moment, Kali Mist and White Russian are at the bottom of the popularity list, and yet, they're the two strains that I feel most tempted to indulge in... Maybe it's because they're less common, maybe it's because I've heard good things from people who have actually grown them. I'm not sure but so far they're at the top of my wish list.
I think Kali Mist and White Russian will quite happily grow along side my Super Lemon Haze!

Cheers.

 

[AK47StEvY]

Dude I love Ak47, its so fucking potent to me. But i must say that white Russian is a very awesome plant as well...but guys all the serious plants are just so damn good... its like wat could be a lot better than serious man.
