Jason and I have met Maybe some day he'll swing by for a visit and a :jointsmile:

And to the rest of ya's, thank you for the kind words. We're trying to do things right.

Since the beginning, we've been growing out large blocks of plants from seed and whittling down the numbers to the top 5-10% of what comes up. This takes time and money and patience. It is the only way to weed out undesirable character. There are no shortcuts.

In our rooms we run ambient humidity and we do not enhance CO2. As a result, our lines tend to run well in Colorado's weird-ass environment. Anything that doesn't fare well here is excluded. Thrippy strains, nute sensitive strains, anything that stresses in our environment gets tossed.

Before we release anything, we feed our development strains to our local grower-partners who, we feel, put them through the wringer and push them hard to produce. These people are no-BS, tell-it-to-you-straight operators who know what to expect from plants.

I post most at gardenscure but also at TY, THCFarmer and some of the private seed collectives. We have access to pretty much anything we want, but we try to focus on genetic lines that have not yet been commercially exploited.

Our current project is based on a wild strain from Dagestan, a Russian Republic on the Caspian Sea. I'm pretty sure we're the first people to grow these in the US and probably one of the first groups in the world to hybridize this particular seed source.

Having said all of that, some of our stuff will be good, some of it less so and hopefully, some of it will be good enough to find its way into your gardens.

Whatever you walk away thinking, know that we take the responsibility seriously and we know what is at stake for the people who grow our stuff commercially and for those who are self reliant for their own meds.
