I will Vote in favor of a repro of blueberry blast, that’s for sure. I’ve only heard great things.
Not sure what happened with sproutways - I listened to a podcast where they were going to be selling / distributing snowhigh, Kagyu, and I think bhodi gear and I saw they had different packaging including blueberry blast, but I never saw much more than that podcast and a few people with the new packs, but I thought the parents were gone so idk if it was old stock or what.
I have really liked all the Snowhigh strains. I’ve made so many seeds over the years and sent them all out to the community so don’t always hear about or see the grows. On many of the early creations I only kept a single pack for myself. In hindsight I wish I would have kept 30-40 seeds for a future project to run through more for pheno hunts.
Sadly, the vast majority of the 1000s of seeds are likely sitting in peoples collections in cold storage (hopefully) waiting for their chance to run.
I think I have seen runs of the following and will check my notes. I think @avr1 may have run one or two of them too.
Heart of Darkness x X18
Royal Chocolate Thai x X18
That Platinum Flo sounds like a good one! (metal haze x Flo)
Here’s a less know snowhigh hybrid …Purple Rose (Flo '96 x Acapulco Gold C99)
Purple Rose is the combination of a circa 96 in-cross of original Flo, the mother chosen was a 9 foot monster with red to purple stems, purple, blue, golden orange and purple flowers lightly encrusted with resins. The father was an equally large dude that reached around 11 feet tall that comprised of Acapulco Gold x C99 genetics, the male leaning more toward the Acapulco Gold side. This is old School Mexican 70’s era stuff, happy, colorful and exotic but in a package manageable to grow. Don’t let this pass you bye, well worth the grow, aesthetically pleasing and a blast from the past.
*The 1996 Flo seeds were selected and distributed by Dutch passion and differs from what DJ has today…Also notable…DJ shorts created ‘Flo’
His newest version has BB bx in it however, he does still apparently have a 1997 Flo mother
That one is one of my grails, I love Flo and have been looking for this one forever but John said it’s been sold out forever and germ rates are bad, so hopefully someone out there has done an OP on it!
I keep seeing everywhere on YouTube that red stems are signs of a nuitrent deficiency. I dont know whether to believe them. So many strains have that as a trait it seems.
Ive got a pack of that; can’t wait to give em a try! Been admiring your work from afar and once I give some of the old beans I have a shot, those are at the top of my list.
I got to see a bunch of his snowcap crosses but didn’t grow them myself. What I remember is that it was Hella resistant to mold and the growers in Fort Bragg had some success with that line outsides. Good herb but just got played out and Berry White was rising in popularity as the Dep strain of the day.
That Goji Purple Fire Thai was FIRE. Was so sad when I heard that one was lost. Any chance someone is holding seed? That one should definitely be on a preservation list.
i cheked the vietblack at PremopSeeds you showed. Fakealert!
Lately there is a Guy who allegedly sells Congolese Black african Landrace…
I was for a while even defending this Guys offer, couple grew the alleged Black African…
It took a while for me to turn against him.
Because i tracked his few Forumposts down and interviews on youtube, in wich he said he backcrosses his landraces… He also can go literally hours complaing about the world and other breeders… you know… this type guy.
And i recognize the Vietnam Blacks Picture from multiple Sites that pop up just lately claiming to have the magic Vietnamese Black, Black african…Brazilian, nepalese…
Multiple sites with different layouts… but i can recognize the sites, are all having this “Cannbismagazine style”… all the same guy behind i guess…
I bet the whole site is either backcrosses or so… loo even at this vietnamese fat like afghani., but i always stay openminded, this is just speculation.
