@Fraservalleybeans , the Shishkaberry 3f2 seeds I have grown out and done a seed increase on were given to me by another member here. They aren’t mine to just hand out to folks who PM me. That said, these seeds “will” be given out to the community for FREE … yoou just need to be part of that thread and hang out a while. I see you are new here and all you need to do is take part in the forum and the discussions and follow that thread for when the sign up lists will be availlable.
Now Kish… that’s not Shishkaberry. Kish was from seeds that were intended for marc emery’s store but an employee stole… I think that is the story. Those seeds ended up in the hands of a guy who labelled himself Cash Crop Ken who used breeder steve’s uncut genetics to win a cup and no credit to steve was given.
From a breedinng standpoint, I won’t work with anything not traced directly back to authentic Spice of Life genetics. If you listen to the various podcasts with breeder steve, he explicitly mentions Kish and that whole fiasco.
These are the reasons breeder steve left the cannabis seed game , the cash crop kens and the barney’s farms guys ripping on spice of life genetics reputation and using it to sell seeds
anyhow… hang out a while, take part in the threads I have going and you will get your chance at these free seeds just like everyone else here on the forum.
Not trying to be a dick, just trying to explain how things work here.

There are No dumb questions !!! I learnt this in trade school hehehe.
I am unfamiliar with reeferman’s older worlk. I know he was prarie fire beffore he became reeferman and not sure what all genetics he was using in his early days as reeferman.
What I have gathered on Reef’s G13 is this… Airborne G13 x (airborne g13 x Santa Marta Columbian Gold)
I am unfamiliar with the Love Potion but it hasn’t come up in my research on reef’s g13.
I have asked the guy several times but I get no answers. I also want to know who he got his BC kimo from in 1991 because it was my mentor , Sandy Richards (rip) that ws the original grower to receive the Chemo when it left the UBC research center. Sandy wrote it down as Kimo so anyone who got the orignals might have received them labelled as such.
Charles doesn’t seem to want to discuss the origins of things so I gave up a few years ago trying to get answers on his older stuff.

I didn’t know that I’d had some trades with that nick way back. Cool

I used to spend waaaay too much time hanging out on the Reeferman forum, 2004-2006. I think he didn’t start offering his “Reeferman’s G13” (if that’s what it is you’re growing) until the very tail end when I wasn’t paying quite so much attention.
Love Potion 1 was supposed to be the Airborne cut x SMCG (although there were always people popping up and claiming it was something else… uh… oh man… Lemon Thai I think was what they said). Er, come to think of it I think it was supposed to involve a backcross, but I’m thinking back almost 20 years and can’t quite remember.
Charles (that’s what he was calling himself at the time) was often around in the site chat before he left Canada, and then some when he was in Holland. Sometimes talkative. I don’t mean this as an insult, but I read something once that reminded me of him, about US Southern story tellers… “If you can’t improve on a good story you have no business telling it” so… grain of salt.
There were certainly a fair number of people mad at him about using other people’s work and claiming it as his own, at least by not correcting people. That didn’t seem to change.

Get ahold of him on fb Dave Scott , easy enough to find

dude… I don’t do facebook hehehe
I’ve had convo’s with him online and even via text when he was in the lowermainland a few years ago. Was trying to meet up with him to snag some seeds but it never came together.
@yardgrazer I wasn’t really online until around 2004/05 but I didn’t pay any attention to the online cannabis scene. In 05 I shut down and didn’t grow again until 2015. Started my first seeds in 10 years on boxing day 2015 
after joining icmag a couple months before that looking for anything i could find on spice of life. It is then that my learning curve into all that I had missed in the 10 years i paid the cannabis scene no attention. I smoked copious amounts of weed all those years… just grown by friends.
The G13 I have is from the freezer vault of the late Classic Seeds (rip) and were gifted to me to grow and increase. The baggie was simply labelled Reeferman G13. The other baggie that came with it was labelled 2009 LUI x G13. No idea if that is reeferman’s cross or something Classic did. It seems that Classic networked with several differnet growers including Canadian ones we are familiar with from the 2000’s.
There are more seeds on the way from Classics vault , what they are will be a surprise for now because I’m not entirely sure myself and they have a long way to travel.

Nice.
I found a listing online for Love Potion, it did involve a BX, it was (G13 x SMCG) x SMCG.

Super colliders getting pretty big and some good flower development.
Should get a few seeds from stray kush 4 x ssdd pollen as well. Which will be a nice bonus.
I just put in a more stretchy pheno of coastal bb in to flower as well. I’ll grab some pics tonight.

@Kyumonryu , looking great !!!
Thanks for posting
Nice frost layer building too I see. These were potent plants when I grew them out so I can’t wait to see what you find.
I’ve had a few growers reporting in on the Coastal Blueberry as well so it’s going to be nice to hear from different growers on how they turn out in everyone’s various set ups.

Nice I’ve got 2 more of the coastal bb in veg, they are just slow growing and I assume minimal stretch. So I’m going to grow them out a bunch more before I throw them into flower.
I have 4 healthy ogkb that shouldn’t be more than another few weeks before they are big enough as well. I ended up getting 4 without pigment. 3 of which didn’t make it, just kind of ate themselves after a while. One is still trying though.

Got a bunch of new seed inbound and winter 2023/24 is going to be very hard for me to decide what to pop LOL There will be landrace sherberghan and a couple other raw afghani seed lots as well as some stuff of Pakistani origin… I am keen to dive into these as well as the seeds of Sar Hawza F2 collected by Gage Amsler while on tour in the Sar Hawza district of Afghanistan.
I want to start with some building block strains and see what I can come up with in a complex breeding program.
I’ve been thinking long and hard about putting the work into creating a Pink Kush “RIL” an idea inspired by the work @Tonygreen has done with sour bubble and GG4.
So I’ll select a Karma Genetics Biker Kush V1F3 father to start with then in fall I’ll be popping DMT from @JAWS and hunting out a father for the parallel line.
Gotta have a plan and I get sidetracked easliy because I am a seed popping addict LOL. However I think the journey I am on as a “breeder” and my personal quest for cannabis that gives me a better quality of life , mentally, physically, spiritually and socially is starting to come to fruition in ways I had only hoped for. Generosity of others has enabled me to aquire the building blocks and a genetic library I can hunt thru to find those plants that truly help me with those 4 key facets of life that I seek to satisfy.
At the same time… my general motto is… All Killer and No Filler

it’s odd they did the no pigment thing… i should send you a few more ogkb bx… I don’t have many left but I do have another pack of the pollen used to make them. If you want some more beans to make up for the duds, send me your info

No need to worry about that, they were untested and I was well aware. If you’d like some more run I’d be happy too but if you’re short the please don’t worry. I appreciate your repeated generosity!

She seems to prefer not being topped

well… G13 is being pulled from the breeding plans for now. She has produced a tight male flower at the very tip of several flowers. I am also somewhat unimpressed with this girl but I’ll take some tweezers and pluck those flowers before they can do any harm.
I’ts possible its a stress thing as there was a minor light leak for 1/2 hour last week. No direct light but not complete darkness either. I’m gambling that was why so I am keeping the clone plants to run again and see what happens.
