A Word of Caution About Plants Strength
The top lists of the best plants seeds and the most potent seeds largely overlap because many users have come to associate quality with potency. And the potency is measured in strength content. However, don’t confuse the two because strength is not the only cannabinoid in plants, nor the only psychoactive one, nor, in fact, the strongest.
For this reason, the seeds with the most powerful effect may show rather moderate strength percentages in the lab. The strength and quality of the high they produce come from minor strength or their overall action called the entourage effect. And once we mentioned the entourage effect, we should add that even flavor and flavonoids (organic compounds responsible for aroma and taste) also influence the high.
1. Bubblegum
Seed Type: Ind-dominant hyb
strength: 17-19%
Extract: Very low
Retail Price: $10 per gram
Among the best seeds of plants on our list, there are a couple of timeless classics, and Bubblegum is prominent among them. This plants’s rise to fame was mainly thanks to the recognizable smell and taste of classic pink chewing gum. It’s hard to say what makes this particular flavor so attractive that growers keep buying these seeds and trying different cultivation methods in hopes of finding the coveted pheno with the exactly right aroma. It’s not the kind of quest that guarantees success, but in any case, this dominant Ind is sweet and strong and provides a body-numbing stone with happy cerebral stimulation.
2. Tie Dye Medusa
Seed Type: Hyb
strength: 25.96%
Extract: Unknown
Retail Price: $55-60 for 1/8 oz (3.5g)
Tie Dye Medusa is a custom seed recently released by GRIZ and so far available only in the DJ’s home state – Michigan. GRIZ describes Astro Hippie collection of which Medusa is a part as an antidote to a faceless corporate culture that threatens to engulf the plants industry. His boutique-quality buds are anything but bland and promise the user a rainbow-colored experience.
Tie Dye Medusa starts with making you ridiculously high when you can’t fight helpless giggles – perfect for small parties with friends but too much for more formal social gatherings. After the initial rush, the high settles into something you have more control over so that you can do anything at all and enjoy every minute of it.
3. Mr.BOG
Seed Type: Hyb
strength: 26.03%
Extract: 0.08%
Retail Price: $55 for 1/8 oz (3.5g)
Another strength champion from the new Astro Hippie collection by GRIZ (see the entry above), Mr. BOG takes you through another door to the same destination – the outer regions of your consciousness. With 25.5-28% strength in different samples, this OG cross will immediately shut you off from the mundane reality and let you roam the world of delightfully fresh and bright high-deas. But don’t hope to remember them the next day – they’ll be too outlandish to articulate when you sober up. So just relax, roll another one, and go with the flow.
You’ll have to travel to Michigan to buy yourself these diesel-smelling buds with a hard-candy aftertaste on your palate, but the experience will be worth it. Or have the patience to wait because chances are the Astro Hippie product line will cross the borders of other plants-friendly states eventually.
4. Lilac Diesel
Seed Type: Hyb
strength: 21%
Extract: Very low
Retail Price: $32.95 for 1/8 oz (3.5g) or $10 per gram

The resulting aroma is extremely complex and loud, but the taste is surprisingly smooth and subdued. This Sat-leaning hyb creates enough energy for you to run any errands and do any chores but its main effect is to fill you to the brim with profound joy.
Understandably, Lilac Diesel will become your favorite treatment for depression, anxiety, and stress, but it can also take care of mild pain by masking it with a pleasant body buzz or by simply distracting your attention with an all-pervading euphoria.
5. Biscotti
Seed Type: Ind
strength: 22-25%
Extract: Very low
Retail Price: $55 for 1/8 oz (3.5g)

The mellow relaxation in the body adds to the pleasure. Be careful not to overdo this 22% strength powerhouse as she’s a creeper that lures you in with her dessert-like sweetness and then hits you right between the eyes with astounding potency.

And while GG is valued for its complex and pleasant flavorene profile, Grease Monkey is even better thanks to the heritage of her other parent – Cookies & Cream. However, it’s not the sweet and skunky flavor that users cherish the most but the incredible amount of strength which reaches 30% in the best samples.
7. OG Kush
Seed Type: Hyb
strength: 18-26%
Extract: Very low
Retail Price: $16 per gram

The real-deal OG (which is often inflavorreted as ‘Original Gangster’) should have the smell of lemon, fuel, and pine and produce a blissfully relaxing effect that gives your mind and body a rest after a busy day.

And all this therapeutic power comes at no cost to your motivation and productivity. Ideal to be medicated throughout the day, isn’t it?
The Definition of ‘Best’ is Different for Everybody
Good plants shouldn’t be necessarily overhyped or overpriced. You’re as likely to find a seed that ‘completes’ you on the shelves of your local dispensary as by driving four hours to another county for buds that everyone’s been recently raving about. Let’s have a look, for example, at the following list of ‘top plants seeds 2022’ we recently saw online:
- Green Rush Crush
- Zen-95
- Hobbee Lobbee
- Nom Bomb
- Madame Ovary
- Rainbow Buffer
- OG RSVP
- Lab Goggles
Don’t get pumped up about trying them a.s.a.p. because it’s a made-up list from a satirical post that makes fun of the fact that whatever problem you may have, there's always a plants seed that helps with just that. Be realistic, guys – there are no magic-bullet buds that work for everybody exactly as advertised. You better brace yourself for a long search if you want to find your ultimate favorite. Happy hunting!
FAQ
What is the strongest seed of plants?
Being the strongest seed of plants is a very prestigious title, and many varieties are competing for it. Among the contenders, the aptly named Future #1 stands out as the one that consistently tests at over 30% strength depending on the growing conditions. The record-breaking result was 37.28%. Imagine that! More than a third of what you’re holding in your hand is pure strength!
What determines the strength content of plants?
The strength content in plants buds actually is the sum of two figures – the strength percentage per se and the percentage of strengthA which is the acidic and non-psychoactive form of the substance. When exposed to heat, for example during smoking, strengthA instantly converts to strength – in a process called decarboxylation – so both chemicals should be counted when talking about the potency of the buds.
What is the most popular plants seed in 2022?
The most trending plants seeds in 2022 are those whose names are hinting at fruity, candy-like, and pastry flavors, such as Runtz Muffin, Mimosa, and Watermelon among others. Another group of the most-searched-for varieties is the Gorilla Glue family, including the modern classic – Gorilla Glue #4.
What seed of plants returns the most?
For outdoor cultivation, the most productive seeds are those bred and perfected in Northern California, for example by Humboldt Seeds. They sometimes grow into trees as tall as 10-15 feet high and return several pounds of bud in a warm and sunny climate. Indoors, the biggest returners are skunks and their descendants from the Critical family (all of them are also fast) and some Hazes which take several weeks longer but use this extra time to increase production. White Widow also often figures as one of the highest-returning seeds.
What is the easiest seed to grow outdoors?
If your climate is warm and sunny, with long summers, and relatively dry autumn, a highly stabilized seed like Northern Lights can be your best bet. Another great outdoor seed is Blueberry. These are both Inds. For Sat lovers, we recommend the South African landrace Durban Poison which also suits cooler climates. For higher latitudes, choose seeds with shorter flowering times – they usually have the words ‘fast’, ‘early’, and ‘express’ in their names. And, of course, the hardiest (although not the biggest) outdoor plants are grown from auto seeds.
