Shiskaberry…
@coopactiongroup
@PineTarBastard was looking for a breeder to run an Ustad Shiskaberry co-op run.
I’m stepping up to the plate
So what we have between us is a pack of Ustad Shiskaberry 3 f2 … I think these were released in 2015 and I bought some packs back then. Pinetarbastard is sending me his Ustad seeds. When I originally popped my Ustad seeds back in 2016 I also popped the last remaining 1998 Shishkaberry F1 seeds. I documented the grow on icmag at the time and I also have a fairly good spread of photos both indoor and out. So I crossed the nicest male from my Ustad seeds to the lone 1998 female shiskaberry F1 that came from the old seeds.
So @PineTarBastard 's seeds are 2015 Ustad Shiskaberry 3f2 original pack and mine are 1998 Shiskaberry F1 x 2015 Ustad Shiskaberry 3f2. I have 69 seeds left to work with. I released a bunch of 25 seed breeder packs of my “cross” to Seedbay back in 2017 but they are long gone into the community by now. The release was called Shiskabah.
I have many photos of the plants from the seeds I made.
So the plan would be to pop the Ustad seeds and keep them as the primary breeding plants and also I would hunt thru some F1 x #3f2 for potential males.
I’m new to all this co-op run business but I am not new to breeding and selecting. I’m also intimately familiar with the shishkaberry in general so am really keen to see this one through and make a few thousand seeds for the community.
