I have run some Barney's w/decent results my fav. Vanilla Kush(cupwinner) 8.5/10,Orange Sherbert(newer strain2-3 yrs old) decent 7.5-8/10,Pineapple Chunk (cup winner)dissapointing did'nt like it 6.5/10,Laughing Buddah so-so 7/10, am trying Lib. Haze w/Van Kush this season Cdog91xG13 is L Haze interested to run it,also have Gorilla Cookies but have never opened pack. So, I guess Barney's is ok some hits and misses pretty much like everyone else.
Peyote cookies is wack also, yeah we didn't like their Pineapple Chunk or Buddha either, their Lsd is pretty hard hitting though but I've never grown it, the little i got was hermied af but I'm pretty sure the grower was at fault...

Ok yeah my friend came back from the Dam all excited about the Chunk and Tangerine dream, such a nice smoke he said.

Turned out to be a anything but on the other hand the critical kush was killer, people were complaining that it was too strong.

Barneys always get it rough :lol: Got 4 of their wedding cakes on the go now. Very pretty plants with violet tinged buds with a month to go.

I also keep a tangerine dream mother. Don't believe everything you have read on this thread. The tangerine dream genetics I kept are very good and the best I have. Even then I could of kept 2 or 3 just from a 5 pack. Stunning strain! Strong. Stinks and tastes of oranges. It puts tropicana to shame! Dense buds too. No complaints from me.

Anybody with anxiety just order a pack a their pineapple express auto's. Or great for grumpy people too. It makes you smile. Walk down the road and people smile at you all the time, then you realise you were smiling at them without realising. It's a great strain for an old skool auto.

I take it as a compliment that I can grow proper dank from Barneys when others seem to struggle :lol:

My tangie clone is so good that I'm chucking 3 clones into 20 litre pots with coco and perlite and growing each one in a 4x4 tent next. There is a demand for dank orange weed.

Cool, I've never tried it,Barney's has some winners and losers but if they've been around since 1986 how can they suck? I've grown a long time outside and before all these new breeders came on the scene Barney's was one of the few that you could land some good genetics for the people who trash Barney's just haven't grown long enough, they are plugged into American breeders(USA now breeds the latest killer strains) and get one shitty strain and say the whole catelogue sucks based on that, but I've gotten shitty seeds from all breeders ,it just happens and is part of the game IMO, you show ignorance when you buy single seeds and say this or that sucks based on that, you have to go through at a minimum 5-10 seeds to get 1-2 decent phenos its the same w/breeders they throw out 99 plants to keep 1-5 ccguns

I wouldn't even order single seeds,if you can't pop a 10pk to find a decent plant knowing you'll throw out 9 then why invest in growing supplies,your doomed to fail,never made sense to me ccguns

Highly recommend, there are a few phenos from what I've seen, 1's pretty citrusy and not as potent as the kush leaning phenos.
Those are the ones you want, mind numbing goodness :eyesmoke:

I think something happened at Barney's at some point in time, like maybe their head breeder retired or whatever, I don't know, all I do know is that I have mixed feelings about their genetics.

On the other hand a friend grows almost nothing else but Barney's and people wait anxiously for his stuff.

Agreed, you gotta be patient and hope you strike gold. That Critical I keep talking about, we popped 1 seed and got a killer pheno right off the bat, sometimes you get lucky.

Critical kush was a good cash cropper...ran it years ago, yields were huge. Nice looking bud but a but weak on potency but great for chilling at night though. For strains like wedding cake you want to get beans from USA breeders not Dutch. Honestly I wouldn't run a barney's strain again and I haven't in years, lot of their stuff I seen from them just have weak phenos compared to what's available today with modern strains like gelatos ×'s and also great triangle kush from breeders like Clearwater, cranecity cannabis, wyeast farms, compound genetics, lit farms and envy genetics, just to name a few< I'd go with these guys over barney's all day. Not meaning to sound like I'm shitting on barney's farm- just an honest opinion, I just believe there's far better options around these days.

Once I started growing connoisseur, og raskal and subcool I was done with barney's and all them. Couldn't get all those cali clones out here in MI so had to get whatever dank seeds I could.

Ya I had a buddy many years ago that ran barney's and greenhouse seed co...those were the last time I've seen a grower grow bud that had that hay smell phenos or just no nose...there were some good ones.. like the Critical kush cut I ran...fucking thing was yielding like over 10 zips a plant easy- in a 5 gal pot on the regular...bud had some good bag appeal as well. Last European breeder I ran was serious seeds and I did love their ak-47 but this was years ago. I have a pack of karma biker kush though...karma is legit.

I had a big critical kush too looked just like their stock pic but still wasn't that great. Last euro strain I ran was a wonder woman clone going around a few years ago and mine was better than the other growers I tried but still not great. I'll fuck with karma, connoisseur and devils harvest still

Ya the critical kush, was a straight cash cropper- looked decent in a bag, had q good smell, yielded huge, easy to grow and had a fast flower. You could chop it at like around 60 days. Only thing bad about it was the potency, which I found weak especially after puffing on it for a few days it just didn't get you that blazed. Was great for stomach issues, sleep and eating some food, shit gave me the munchies like no other.

54 days here and nothing else you'd buy on the street worked after smoking our critical, even the trimmings were more potent...

I thought it was just the pheno but we gave some of our buddies clones and none of them even came close. Smoked that everyday for over a year and it just kept knocking you on the couch, hell the 2nd run looked nothing like the 1st cause we was all glued to the couch high af :bigjoint:

I hear ya with the U.s. Genetics I have a few running sourced from original breeders cause the right people gotta get paid.

Ahh gotchya...also looks like Richard Ashcroft, lead signer of The Verve.
The verve, such a shitty thing the Rolling Stones did to that band. Completely ruined them for sampling on of the stones shittiest songs. Made me hate the stones as people after that bs.

Heard they finally can make money from that song now or something to that effect, 20 years later... bitter sweet symphony
