And Humboldt Seed “Sour Diesel”

The Royal Kush and Royal Highness were decent, but not anything I would grow again. The Sour Diesel had zero phenotypes that even remotely resembled sour. The one in the pic was nice but had more of a grape than anything, another plant tasted like peanut butter (gross). Their Fire OG was also decent, wasn’t quite like OG but resembled it.
From my experience their seeds do well outdoors, they were vigorous and healthy. Just never found anything I wanted to smoke from those plants

Yeah I get strong sham European seed bank vibes from this place browsing the website just like the other one with similar name. I don't see anyone in Homboldt labeling their seed lines and genetics like these guys. Makes sense nothing is what it says it is either. Sour Diesel isn't exactly a hard detect plant in crosses or supposed s1's.

That’s what I was thinking, how are none of the plants even remotely like Sour???

I'm really excited about these; the little info I could find on the internet is really positive. Even if they don't yield close to the 10 lbs they say is possible, it should be a fun grow. I'd be happy with one lb, lol.
That's precisely the reason I am trying them out this year. The advertising of 10 lbs per plant is what caught my attention, and also the supposed pest resistance. I will not be satisfied with just 1 pound.
Going to veg them indoors and then put them out in middle of May or beginning of June. I hope that's enough time to get them a head start.

That's pretty much my plan, but I've already germinated what I was planning for the summer before these arrived, so I'm just going to try out two seeds; one for my backyard and one for a friend's. Let's see how it goes, mine will go into the ground with super soil. Hopefully it'll thrive.

I noticed some confusion a number of posts above. Just for anyone that might be reading, this is the Humboldt Seed Company thread, true US west-coast breeders, and not Humboldt Seeds Organization, the Euro company.

Sounds like a plan. I have two seeds popped already and put into cups. Waiting on the other two to pop.

Yes there seems to be much confusion between HSC and HSO. I find it very misleading how HSO state on their website: 'from California with love.'

I order awhile ago from dcse and got the vanilla frosting and ppd both fem. plan on running them and some useful seeds and 1 mass medical next run.
Now that's funny. I ordered from DCSE and got beans from Mass Medical, Useful and Humboldt to run next cycle too. (Kernel Pupil, Chem cooky Trip and Notorious THC.) It will be fun to see if the Notorious lives up to the hype, it's supposed to be as potent as they say, so I guess I'll find out.

Pineapple Upside Down Cake flowering time is 45 - 50 days so expecting end if September or early October at the very latest. Humboldt Dream is 60 days so early/mid October; a bit more risk weather wise. Fingers crossed.

I am watching to see how some of these raspberry parfaits you guys are picking up turn out. I 'm intrigued as I haven't found a really raspberry flavor/nose that meets my criteria. Post pics if you can please.
