To be fair Simon from Serious did some banging regs. AK 47 was one hit. The Flying Dutchman Pot of Gold what a money maker, in a flood and drain, and like nice afgan hash. Sensei Seeds NL5 was tops. I wish again. Dutch Passion White Widow. Crystalline. As in anything filthy lucre becomes involved.
The genetics coming out from your side of the pond are the "next level". Like Heisen says if you have a table with a 1000 cuts and have the luxury to choose the special one.
My first time in Holland I had Colombian and the just out Super Skunk for breakfast with an Amstell and was flying. Paid in Guilders. The Super Skunk minged to high heaven. Fruitily.
Agreed there is a lot of pond weed seed sold as primo.
I know where I will be sourcing from now on.
🔥 from Mr H.
Seeds were rare in the 90's here in the USA....at least in my circle/area (Colorado). The first seed I ever purchased (in '98) was "Durga Mata" from Paradise seeds. 2nd order was Flying Dutchman "Thaitanic" and Mr. Nice "Great White Shark". I went on to buy quite a few other selections over the years until things opened up here in the early 2000's.

The "Durga" was very sought after. It had a nice, spicy thing going on and was muy stoney. The Thaitanic grew huge, medium density buds. It had a bit of an up high and a woody/earthy/spicy flavor. It was a challenge for me because at the time I was growing in a crawlspace with >barely< a 4 ft high ceiling under HPS with giant reflectors taking up space in the mix. I bent it over and kept it low but it was a good 6 ft tall. LOL. The Great White was one of my favorite smokes of all of the seeds I bought across the pond. It was the frostiest pot I'd grown to date...hard, hard nugs.....rivalling many strains of today on both accounts...and the taste was off-the-hook. Cleaner/nail polish/pungent/hashy...just a crazy good offering across the board.

We certainly have some frosty pot over here...but things are bottlenecking hard to the point where when you go to look at lineage...you see a lot of "Unknown" in the mix and you travel through history from past to present. However...almost everything started with the Skunk #1 (Thai/Afghani/Brazillian/Columbian) in the mix...which is tell tale here. Lotsa goodness in there, for sure. We wouldn't have the modern strains of today w/o all of those old heads...and old strains. I'm sure...just as happens here.... there's some stuff held deeply in certain circles there that has far more going on than most of the commercial offerings available.

I hope yer seeds arrive soon. I remember "the wait"....LOL. Checkin that mailbox...checkin that mailbox...

Legality has turned these growers into some straight up snitch spoiled ass bitches. I go out of my way to satisfy people. People have ordered seeds from me and I would throw in extras. Sometimes I'd even send em cut. If I have a legitimate issue to work out I wanna say thanks to everyone who understands the business and understands shit happens. To the ones who don't you can suck my dick. Someone called me lazy lol as if I spend all day watching TV or some shit. Haha I literally work 18 hrs a day and do everything in my power to get shit done. Fuk sakes.

"No good deed goes unpunished". Sorry to hear yer dealing with such BS. Dunno how this contest played out as far as no-shows who were sent seeds and haven't done shit/checked in since compared to past contests but it seems like you honed the process down to where there aren't too many grab and run folks this time around. Kinda surprised there were any with these frosty fuckin genetics...but surprises aren't in short supply these days for sure. Thanks from here. My shit is kicking into gear.

All 3 companies did some quality beans. All 3 you stated were good products.
The Sensei Star was ko. Very Indica. Frosty for the times as well. My pal went to Flying Dutchman in Holland, the gent recommended Pot of Gold. Our parameters were quality and to make some cash. The Pot of Gold ticked all the boxes. Great big long colas smelling like Afghan Charas.
My Platty Ice has arrived and this ole git is pleased as punch. Across the pond has taken genetics to the next level. I grew 12 regs of HiMac and one pheno was outstanding. The only downside was yield, the quality was outstanding.
The reason I chose the Platty Ice as my lad loves his Mac.
Impressed with what Mr Heisen is creating. Formidable genetics.

Mr H you are doing the business. Love what your doing. My Platty Ice arrived today. Thank you to the cannabis gods and of course yourself and Gu.

I thought this was a pertinent enough question to ask in the other thread but I figured I'd play it safe and ask here.

@Heisen....Can you offer any info/advice on the stretch these ladies are going to put out for those of us not wanting trees? Thanks.

I've not experienced any more than 2X stretch with any of Heisens gear I've grown.
Mine are gonna be short, stacked solid and frosty!!

@Big Terps - not sure how we're supposed to coment on pics in the other thread. In your most recent post that is a beautiful plant! That structure just screams "top me here" with those perfectly level 6-8 tops all canopied out.. I agree they must like the soil. My first run with living soil was harsh, but all after that were great. But I mixed my own instead of getting the pre-aged stuff.

You can comment on pics in the main thread. I’m just trying to keep the pages of back and forth about stuff down in that thread.
