The only information I can find is that
The Seed Bank Of Holland won the 1989 High Times Cannabis Cup for Pure Sativa with
Haze x South African Sativa.

Puting 2 and 2 together after reading on the Mr Nice
Forum where Nevil Schoenmakers stated that he never used any of SSSC' work, but they had used his. I'm thinking they could be the same?
I would love to see the M48 page someday.
I’ve never heard that before about buds curing. I have heard that about teas and soil. I get ammonia when I break the buds open.
Thanks for the info!!

Bought 2 packs of the Williams Wonder just on principle. It was one of those "When do you think you'll ever get the chance again?" moments. I didn't pick up the KM but know I need to just for the vault if nothing else.
I have the Williams Wonder as well.
It was on the top of my list
WW was one of the strains I would read about in
High Times in the 90's that I couldn't find.

Golden Ticket doesn't appear to have their inventory database tied to their website. It allowed me to begin the checkout process with 995 packs of Kali Mist in my cart. So, I won't be purchasing from them.
I noticed too their website is a bit off. As I was browsing, when you select a pack it might say "Only 3 in stock" regardless if you switch between say a 5pk or a 10pk. It is confusing. Are they a relatively new site?
 
I do feel he has good gear, I copped a bunch of nl1 and bdbx before he was even in seed banks and found some really cool dank classic weed. I now just feel like can't trust the dude now. I don't think his gear is fake at all, I'm just not sure he even knows what he has. Im always extremely skeptical when someone has THAT many strains available. He must be outsourcing lots of work, cause if he's not it would be nearly impossible to not have pretty bad cross pollen contamination considering how many males he seems to use. Another sketchy thing was how he said HE had the freezer with the old beans in it but now it seems its some other dudes freezer?

The way he described his Black Domina bx like 5 different ways always bothered me, it does now seem on his web site he has it listed out correctly, but not sure why he couldn't have said it correctly to begin with and avoid the confusion. It seemed like when he got on seedsherenow he all of a sudden had a shit ton more crosses and got "breeder of the year", feel like that wasn't a coincidence. If you just think about how long it takes to develop and test a line, it just doesn't seem to add up. Lastly there was the incident with him blaming SKUNK VA for stealing all of dukes gear when he went to prison. He made an apology on IG then deleted it soon after. idk, just when there's smoke there's usually fire, especially in the seed game. sorry to bring in any bad vibes but Im just curious if anyone feels the same way about the dude.

I didn't know he was ever on Seeds Here Now?

I wouldn't want to talk about Ak Beanbrains business model or growing practices, because it's not my place.
Maybe, there could be more transparency, and most breeders will drive you nuts trying to figure out what's what with their strains and crosses.
This is often not helped by the vendors themselves being rushed into listing many different strains. Inaccuracies abound with lack of information and possibly understanding.
Nothing new there.
In the end if the beans don't grow out to your expectations then I'd be the first to move on.

I will say that he is known for his honesty and if he thinks someone is getting screwed over, he will step up and offer support. I'm not sure if he's afraid of much. Dudes a towering presence, but cool as they come.
BTW, that beef was started by Duke Diamonds wife wanting to find out where it all went.
Shit happens!
