Also why the fuck is my seed purchase being so heavily criticized? Guess I won't be sharing anymore...
I wasn't hating on the purchase. I think SHN has an exorbitant markup on everything, and they treat freebies like they paid for them. As far as the seed company, they are doing what I wish more would do, I love S1's and hunting through good genetics. If they started with the legit genetics then they are what will help break the broken system. As far as the PBB, is that a cut or a line of seeds that he sold? I know he sold the seeds but I think there was a pheno selected as "the cut", that you may or may not have in that expensive pack of seeds they sell.
"Notsodog" is the internet handle of a weed-nerd that geeks out on strain history stuff and participates in a podcast with Matt Riot of Riot seeds - none of us are using our real names for some reason... One thing I have learned about any type of verbal history, weed stories, etc. is that while it is sometimes hard to prove a certain claim it is usually easy to disprove something.
So a lot of the podcasts are either selling something or calling out bullshit. He's a little younger than I am but from the same general 'pre-internet' weed generation, and he grew and sold weed, was part of that deadhead/weed culture, and he has a library of genetics that he has maintained forever. He is the one that originated the Mendo Purps, and is friends with the CSI Humbolt dude and lets him breed and sell some of his cuts. Their podcast when he is a cohost are pretty middle of the road weed history and a good listen.
He has a unique (supposedly) LA Pure Kush cut that was sold as "Headband" and got the internet title of Notsodog's Headband. I am growing out a few now and it looks like good weed.
