Sorry if this is the wrong place, sorrier if this thread will only confused and infuriate (I anticipate mostly the latter).

In the mid 2000's (In New England, anyway), there weren't any real strain types known. People threw around names and gave whatever they had whatever name they knew. Most good weed (weed without seeds) was simply called KB or hydro, whether or not it was actually hyrdro. I'm sorry if I rehashed the youth of many!

More often than not, when I would get the expensive stuff ($50/eyth) it would be this one type of bud. Always good, had a nice crisp smell to it, big dense buds, good dark green, and usually some red hairs. I don't know if it was particularly high in THC, but I know I always loved it. I have to emphasize, I loved the smell. Such a nice pungent weed smell. I don't remember it being citrus like at all. This stuff was always the same regardless of who you got it from. I've always considered it the highest quality good stuff you could get, while there was much better stuff out there that was a bit more artisinal. Kind of like how someone would say that Harpoon is the best mass-produced beer you can get, before you get into the smaller breweries that make better beer. Essentially mass-produced weed.

Is this enough to go on? Does anybody know? I'd love to get my hands on some or grow it just for the nostalgia, and to see if it was as good as I remember it being. Thanks!
 
I see this is old but doesn't look like anyone replied. Same was here, end of the 90's early 2000's. Always heard it came out of Naples, NY but then again.... I've been searching for about 10 years give or take a puff. When searching and searching more. From what I can find the closest strain would be Cinderella 99 or King Banner, I could be wrong on the KB. Contacting the one or two that I could ask well here goes :-). Hay Zappy, Zappstir, Zappytellalaaaa, you still out there? 🎶🎶🎶 The other guy's well last I heard they were on some island running some fishing gig's or so I'm told. 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲Another name was Kine, (common mistake Kind) but you try going down that rabbit hole... I've even tried looking down under for something similar. It seems not one person really knows, but remembers. Also it is like asking for BC, as that was a big name back then as I was close to Lake Ontario. I found one breeder but think that was a ghost.... I have countless years searching. Hay if you ever find it, let me know. I'll do the same. Cheers from WNY.

Hey! Yeah, still searching. Talked to a buddy about it who grew up in the same town, he remembers it well, and thinks it may have been a landrace? Yeah BC and Beasters came about around the same time, but I think just the same, most things were called it. But indeed BC bud was exactly what I'm thinking of, but again, everyone called everything everything. KB was also thrown around, Kine of Kind, but again, everything that wasn't terrible mersh was called KB when I was wee.

A few years ago I grew what I THINK was Romulan Haze (pretty sure it was mislabeled) and that was SO CLOSE to the strain I was thinking of. Big, dense, fresh and crispy buds.
 
early 2k and every batch always tastes the same; sounds like some green crack to me.... that shit used to be everywhere and it always smoked the same no matter who grew it... for the time it was good but everyone got sick of it; that's the only one I remember that used to always smoke the same that had sorta the same profile you described
