Hey all,
I was thinking about the subject of strain names and curious of other peoples view. To me, a strain name is definitely something that catches my attention and depending one how strong or unique it is can sell me alone. Any example is that I went to NASC last night and was looking to see if anything new dropped, checking on the stock I had been interested in and I saw they had a freebie called Speakeasy Double Whiskey Sour. I have no clue if Speakasy is breeder or part of name of this white label seed freebie and I have no clue the linage but I did know I wanted it and I wanted even more than the named brand stuff in my cart LOL. I actually didn't intend to complete an order at the time but I had my mind made up I needed these seeds and I couldn't even buy them. I had to buy other stuff to get them free. So I picked a few packs, realized I was spending more than I wanted and deleted a pack. When I deleted that pack, the Double Whiskey Sour freebies dropped from 3 to 2. Well that $50 got added back to get me that third seed lol One of the packs I bought was also a pack I always new I would get by name alone. Mendo Skunky Garlic. Just hearing skunky garlic tickles my soul.
Now having a crappy name can really turn me off no matter how fire. For example, I was trying to acquire all the Mephisto genetics I could and I had to really separate myself from the purchase on Man Bear Alien Pig. It just doesn't sound appealing at all. I understand where it came from but it just didn't hit for me. But I will tell you this, the plant did!!! I am glad I bought it and I will call her MBAP to cope lol
So lets hear it? Does the strain name mean a lot to you? Just thinking about the subject reminds me I need some Jeanos Rootbear Float. That name rocks!! Now I probably will never buy Dude Wheres my car though
