People trip up over his personal life and whatnot, people kind of love to hate the dude for reasons I don’t understand.
But.
He was in the shit when it was 100% illegal, growing and breeding, with a public face.
His gear, though it was usually space queen crosses, was still usually dank. People rip on it for not being potent or whatever, but his gear was designed to be quick and smell great, yields and raw potency weren’t part of it. Jillybean is huge in CO scene, Agent Orange is great, Chernobyl (Golden Ticket) is still used in crosses today.
He did more than I will, now his watch is ended.

last 3 querkle seeds i have. Been sitting a few years in a drawer. Hope they pop. I had a killer purple pheno a few years back. Lost due to shutting down for medical issues. Hope i find it again. Slow growth in veg sucks though. But, it finished in 9 weeks and was super purple. Not the strongest smoke, but it was pleasant and tasted very good. Not like grapes. Cant really explain it. Maybe rosey! I dont know. It was good though.

Back in '04 I had just started growing indoors, and I didn’t have any seeds, so I decided to gamble my freedom and order some online. I researched it for 2 months, and found TGA on breedbay. I read about this strains, and then I saw the High Times article about “Danny Boy”. I was moved by Sub’s apparently sincere desire to memorialize his friend, and that tipped the scale.
I got Vortex, Jillybean, Querkle, Deep Purple, Space Queen, and Pandora’s Box, (I now refer to them as The Six). I’d always grown outdoors, so I didn’t really have a handle on keeping mother plants, and I didn’t have any breeding knowledge, so I wasn’t able to keep any of those strains.
Currently, I have Vortex, Scarlett Queen, Purple Apollo, Sweet Tea, and Fandango. I’d love to have more, but Sub was one of the pricier breeders, and I don’t think his stuff will be around for long. Out of curiosity, I went to @Strainly earlier, and looked at Sub’s listings. Last time I looked he had 56 different strains listed, today there are 2.
I read a comment where someone pointed out the fact that when marijuana was 100% illegal, Sub’s business, and his face were out in public. Love him, or hate him, he was a pioneer in the cannabis industry, and his impact will be felt for a long time.
Godspeed brother man.

That’s the recipe that I found that looked like it made the most since to me.
And that’s the one that I am using.

I was really sad to hear about it when he lost his home to the wildfires a few years back, and was really concerned the smoke might affect his respiratory condition.
it seemed like he got back on his feet pretty fast, I was always impressed with his ability to get shit done no matter what obstacles life put in his path.
rest peacefully subcool.

Indeed, it was, in fact, genetic. Lungs were effectively choking him to death. He knew there wasn’t any cure. That’s why the last couple of years, he couldn’t smoke OR be around anyone smoking. He described it as a “lonely life”, awaiting the inevitable. To me, I guess that is ONE of the reasons he was so misunderstood.
