have only experience with Dutch Passion "Blueberry" was very good. Looking at BC Bud Depot's "Blueberry" wish D.J. Short had feminized seeds - this is were it all started D.J. Short's "Blueberry" There are many blueberry hybrids one specific strain called "Blue Venom" is excellent (white widow x blueberry) both in taste and yields.

I know regular seeds are better than feminized seeds - don't want to wait for females . regular seeds I feel are better - what is your germination rate ? You feel the same ?

FWIW, I personally prefer regular beans, as I feel like I have the option to run 4-5 seeds, see if I like said strain and keep the rest for down the road. At a point a few years down the road if I'd like to revisit something, I have the ability to make F2's outta said pack.

fem or reg does not affect germination rate, it will be the same. I think if what you want to grow is DJ short Blueberry , go ahead and do that, don't let reg or fem dictates what you are gonna grow. reg seeds are far superior in every way but that's a whole separate topic.

This question gets asked a lot on RIU but it always ends the same. The blueberry of yesteryear is "gone" so we are left with many separate breeder's work with those old beans. From what I've seen in person and via forum/internet is that the crinkle leaf mutant pheno of blueberry that was colored nicely, tasted like berry jam and was really potent has been bred out of most breeders lines. Doesn't mean there ain't fire blueberry but just not likely to find those mutants gems anymore.

I still read any thread pertaining to blueberry and love finding out or seeing new examples of blueberry and her crosses.

That being said I currently have a seedsman's blueberry (feminized) and an HSO sour blueberry (feminized) in flower (5 days). The seedsman definitely resembles my old dutch passion blueberry from '02, it has fat fingered leaf blades, grows slow, side branches don't want to spread out and doesn't like being topped.
