:woot:BUMP!!!!!
I'm sure some have had some killer HPs, HP Crosses in all these years ????????:D:D
To make a long story as short as possible, I was growing with a partner in 96-97. We had been consulting together for 3 years. He was 67 years old, and I was 39. I have been growing since 1972, and started inside stuff in 76. At 18 years old. He had a 2000 acre farm. I knew how to grow weed, and he had a farm. He grew a few but didn't know ho to tell male/Female, so I was introduced to him from his nephew, who I knew for 30 years.
I started buying from Nevils... The Seed Bank starting in 84. My 1st order was Mazar, Cali Orange, Nepali
I got the following from Nevil in 88.
88 LTD Release NL5/HZ
88 G13/PNW HP
88 NL1/PNW HP
Bred the male NL5/Haze into NL1/PNW HP Female, and grew that strain for 9 years, and never got tired of it.
But in 97 he got caught by the feds with 500 clones I gave him, and he told on me, and theyfound another 550 + 30 mother plants. Needless to say I did a long time, and lost all the genetics. I did from 97-2001 locked up, and had 8.5 years supervised release. Didn't smoke, but did grow from 2001-07, until another partner ratted me out because he let is EX see the grow, and she used the kid against him. So I got a state charge ( Class C ) and that violated my Fed Supervision. Long story short, I pled guilty to 5-10, but the Feds took custody, and the State ran my time Concurrent, as my Violation Time ( 3 Years ) from the Feds was longer than Parole Eligibility from the State ( about 1 year ). State you have to serve 15%. I went back 3 more years for the violation.
Got out 1st time in 2001 started looking for the genes again, ( No Avail ) and grew Serious SK47, Sensi NL5, mainly, and it WAS really good stuff, but still not like what I was looking for. We also crossed the 2 with great outcome. Todays Sensi NL is NOTHING like the earlier stuff. Same for Serious AK47.
I was also a Mod on Serious, and Dan Van Pots site, who won the Indica Cup with BCBD ( Who Ripped Him Off ) for God Bud, and he took the Original Male, but they still do have the original mother cut.
Dan got shut down in around 2006.
So after I got out again in 2009, I started looking for these genetics again, for 8 years, and like many have said, NONE of it was like the original stuff in the 80s-90s, as places like Sensi, Serious lost some of their original genetics. The early 200s AK47, and Sensi NL5 were really good, and some really special plants existed. Some say not as good as the 90s version though, but I never had the luck to smoke that.
So in the last 4 months, and after hours more research ect, I have found many of the old genetics Ive been looking for, and some of them my friends are putting to the test.
Also consider some of these strains have been available, but were till hard to track down, and there are also many fakes, and false claims.
1st off I found the Original Nevils 88 LTD Release ( Though now F5 Stabilized ). These are the real genetics, and were bred by reputable breeders ( COOT/Swami ), and are nothing like the Mr Nice version. I also do grow Mr Nice SSH, and Critical Mass, but am going to different genes now.
I also found, and bought Hazeman/NDNGuy/Nevils Original LTD Release 88 G13 x Hash Plant
I just found, and ordered these 3 days ago.....Coastal Seeds NL1 x PNW Hash Plant.:nailbiting::nailbiting::nailbiting::nailbiting::love1::love1:
This will make up 2/3 of my original stuff I had in the 90s.
Mine was also crossed with an original Road Kill Skunk/Sk1.. And I have also found a stabilized hybrid of this, but wont be available until Spring. Its called RKS Guadlajara, and was bred with a local Guadalajara, and hybridized/stabilized for over 30 years for the RKS type. The RKS they used was Clone Only from 1985. And was taken to Guadalajara.
Swami does have a cross with Blue Orca x RKS Guadalajara.
I plan on breeding the male NL5/Hz into a really nice NL1/PNW HP/Female. I also plan on breeding the pure NL1/HP into F2, and then finding a Male, and breed it back into the F1 as Nevil Did to create the Hash Plant. These are NL1 HP by name. Nevil differentiated them by terminology.
He said crossing like this gave 50/50 NL1/HP phenos, with 1 in 4 being Outstanding, and ALL of them extremely potent.
