I was impressed by the first two Bud books. So I bought the third as well. After doing so, I bought Jason King's books and visited with him some on the topic of 'strain reviews'. He told me that all the strains in the 3 Big Books of Buds were paid for and written by the seed breeders themselves. Yes, these were rated and reviewed by the creators of these strains and not reviewed by the man (Ed R.) himself. So take whatever is written as such.

BTW -- these are probably better as strain grow guides than a reviews, meaning if they say to top early, or that it's nute sensitive or that it needs a lower ph, then it's probably good advice. However, when they sing the praises of a strain take it as puffery -- like a car salesman. Just sayin' . . ..

Ed Rosenthal has once again put together a fun collection of bud from the world's breeders. A handy guide in the back lists breeders' contact info. Beautiful photos and kind descriptions left me wishing the author would be a bit more objective and probing, but still great eye candy!
