Ugh, you're really making me want to pick up some of those tknl5 packs! Were all these from the TK dom packs or the NL dom packs or from earlier? That haze dominant one definitely looks like it would be my fav of the bunch, wish he had that as an option lol
I ordered mine about a year ago from Dankortowne and it just says Tk/Nl5 Haze on the pack.
Your's must be the F2's that I heard about.
He must have bred to a haze dom and also a Nl dom to predict the outcome.

Oh I don't have any but that's what he has for sale right now, a TK dominate and a NL dominate. May hold off then, I don't want either of those to be dominate.

In case there's still some confusion about this, he released TK x NL5Haze F1s originally. There may be more haze in those. I guess he's chosen to inbreed away from the haze for the moment, but we'll see what comes in future drops.
yeah that's what it seems like. I can understand that though, indoors usually want something shorter with a shorter flower time than something leaning towards the haze side. I already have some NL5/Haze x Sensi Star from Mel Frank so will just grow those out instead while I wait and see what AK does. I really don't need to buy anymore seeds anyways, just the addiction is real :bigjoint:

Ak Beanbrains is the real deal.
Well known for years in the cannabis circles here in SouthCentral Alaska.
He was the go to locally for American Bulldogs and he kept exotic boars at his ranch in the Matanuska Valley.
He sprang to everyones attention a few years ago when he reproduced his stash of SSSC, Seed Bank and Sensi Seed catalogs and started passing them around along with his stash of old school genetics.

In my opinion the Haze portion of Nl5 x Haze in the F1 that I grew, took a back seat to the Nl5. I grew Nl5 x Haze back in the early 90's and it was typically more Haze dominant.
Just a hunch, but
This leads me to believe that his Nl5 x Haze he chose was already leaning towards the Nl5, through selection.
Did you pick up the Mel Frank stuff from Todd McCormick?
Todd is another legend IMHO along with Mel Frank of Course.

He bred towards a TK dominant and a NL dominance, not haze. If you want the hazeiest go for consumption. It should throw mostly haze leaners. He told me that is where the heart pounding fire was...

Yeah Todd and Mel over on agseedco is where I got them from, Mel Franks collection specifically. Hoping they'll be more like the 90's variant since it should be from that time, but they are crossed with sensi star so gonna be indica leaning for sure too.

@psychadelibud Where is that Consumption at? I don't see it on jbc, do I just need to email him instead?

Yes shoot him an email. He will direct you to the master list and what you're looking for will be found there. Keep an eye out for the romulan BX coming up soon!! Should be on the list soon if not already!

I know first hand that Ak Beanbrains is currently working on more Haze lines as well.
He had inquired about getting cuts of a
Killer A5 Haze (A5 Haze x Malawi)bred by Ace Seeds, that I had laying around, but I assured him it was not good enough for him. :D
He is... He is working on quiet a few haze crosses. Lots of old school early and mid 90s legends as well. He sent me a super rare pack the other day, 1995 Sensi Star F4s, back when sensi star was wicked potent and devoured the outdoors.

You can find Consumption at JBC under Relic Seeds.. I believe it was a colab between them.

I am sending AK a couple of our local cuts that's been around forever now. He has been one of the best breeders I have ever got to know... a great friend. I'm gonna send him some Beatrix Choice from SSSC. He said that is one that he knows absolutely no one else has, luckily I got affiliated with an old guy that had packs in his deep freeze from SSSC, sensi and other pre 1990 beans that had never been opened. The success rate with germination is astounding and the vigor is almost flawless.
