i feel really bad that i dont get to visit here that often, but i feel really good that such an amazing collection of charactors keeps this thread filled with laughter, debate, mystery and intrigue, and some really oversized neon green thumbs. i figured since I’m lurking ill answer a few questions from the last couple of pages.
how i do it:
heres my secret, no wharehouse, hoop house, or grow house, just my house….
i find exceptional proven unique males and do a run with all my moms, i bank all those seeds in my seed fridge and send out testers. i slowly release the tested lines that make the grade as new lines or freebies. this process takes years and gives the illusion of a massive catalog and infrastructure. this also frees me up to explore and be creative with my landrace and exotic lines, i do a lot lot of personal testing, r&d, collecting, and trading to keep things moving forward in a focused magical way.
appalachia hybrids:
all the appalachia hybrids were made in one run, vac sealed and put in the fridge. i have no fridge pollen of appalachia, as i lost the male suddenly during a collections trip. if it seems like more and more appear, its because the testers never came through on those lines and they are still awaiting testing results. most of the appalachia hybrids are gone or low except sunshine daydream and a few that never seem to get tested (giesel x appalachia, mss x appalachia) etc…
2015:
i make only seeds to keep things afloat, i stopped producing flowers which was a leap of faith many years ago. this year I’m scaling back on the polypolyhybrids and elite cross mashups, mostly focusing my commercial appeal seeds on extreme terpenes and resin for the concentrate tribe. i have been slowly collecting a massive library of the best of the best landrace specimens and will be going back to the future making pure f1’s. ill be making more pure landrace seeds this year outdoors under the nierika seed trust label, this years collections trip will be kashmir, jammu, and the pakistani borderlands in ladahk.
i know people are curious about bodhi seeds and the wizard behind the curtain, I’m slowly filling out my interview for skunk magazine as time permits. its not easy being a one man show, with three young kids, and a little farm on a hill top. i wake up early and go to bed late, i miss those days of being able to hang out online, sharing and connecting with my fellow green men and women. i love what i do with a passion, its what keeps me going, a green knight in her majesties secret service, just like you. but I’m burning out. i can’t keep up, and i dont want to let go of having my hands on each and every seed. i feel at my core its about getting this most sacred floral influence back into the collective consciousness, heal ourselves, our loved ones, and our planet. i love to give out freebies and testers because i love to give, it makes me feel good. I’m so happy that there are groups of amazing gardeners like you guys popping up all over, sharing the love, busting each others balls, cracking jokes, growing plants, and making beans.
I’m over my head these days, just keeping things moving forward on a roots level here at the farm, but ill try and pop by here and there to check in and answer questions.
thank you guys so much for all the love and support, the amazing grows and highs and lows of this path of the revolutionary evolutionary flower of power...
, glad he came around.
Thats not even worth a come back. I kinda miss the good old days arguing with Amos. Maybe get Stache to type for you IDK but yaaaaaawn.
