Pretty sure seed companies are good in CO. At least thats what a team of lawyers and the MMED have told me on several long visits. As long as they are produced in an OPC, Manifested to your MMC and sold either retail to patients or wholesale to other licensed entities. As far as being able to produce quality IBLs and hybrids, I think Colorado is the best and safest place to be on the planet right now. We have over 2,000 patients in our system of stores and a very large facility with 28,000 watts dedicated to seed production alone. Along with another MIPS facility to run serious numbers of plants for selection. I spent the weekend talking with a few other breeders from Amsterdam, Spain , and the US, none of whom have ever run the seed numbers that we are right now. Nor have they ever seen or heard of it being done. Over the past few weeks we have popped thousands of seeds Up to 500 of single varieties. All of which will be gone through selected to some degree. As far as the team we have put together, I don't feel there is a stronger one out there. Lots of commercial growing experience and not just herb. I for one grew up under 450,000 sqft of glass and have never had a job that didn't include plants. Thats 35 years of commercial production and over 20 years growing cannabis. My boy Paco also comes from traditional horticulture and has vast experience in the field and with cannabis. Chapulin is the hardest working man in the biz. If there was a lumberjack type challenge for baller ass growers, this dude would be long time world champion. He gets more done by 7 am than most of you cats pull off in a week. The newest addition to the team has a masters and is a phd candidate in plant molecular biology focusing on genetics. He was part of the team that sequenced the strawberry genome and was responsible for extracting the RNA that was used in the project. Also spent a good portion of time conducting experiments on light spectrum in regards to terpene profiles in strawberries. I think we got this. If you have doubts than sit back and watch the ride, hate later after there is something to hate or love. New House Seeds is here (Colorado only), and we plan on doing more work and bringing more integrity to the table than anyone else in the biz. Just my $.02
Red Headed Stranger =Williams Wonder X Tom Hills Haze
The willy is an old SSSC Strain that has been inbred in Colorado since the 80's. She is a solid mother and Brings mad vigor and trich production to the game every time. The haze male we used came from a large population of seed and was a real standout in the line. Very strong eucalyptus citrus haze smells. The shortest internodes outa the lot (even the females) and seriously triched out leave n sacs. The seed that was entered in the cup went 112 days and wasn't the longest flowerer of the bunch. For the most part they grow like clones. There is the odd Willy leaning pheno that is shorter and quicker to the punch, but only like 1 outa 40.
TK. I smoked a lot of herb back in the day in TX that went by the name Willy Willies or willy weed. Never a RHS. The reason we chose the name was to honor willy without having to give it the same name as the rest of willies. It do remember the herb and loved it.
