No doubt I’m being a bit Pollyanna-ish, but without some sort of altruistic approach to what we have in our hands all the neat expressions we would like to see will be bottlenecked forever.

of course craft will be niche, the very nature of it prevents total exclusivity. It’s sort of lame that everyone wants to try to subjugate the plant. Personally, and it may be a philosophy, but all plant remedies have a spirit about them and that attitude doesn’t fundamentally jive with the spirit of cannabis.

I agree with the philosophy, but I think it's optimistic. Legalization means entry into the public marketplace. Most services and goods in the marketplace are in competition with other providers. Exclusivity is a natural outgrowth of competition. Brands want exclusive products, services, styles, technologies, etc., all the time in almost every market, even if the 'exclusivity' is just the lowest price or the prettiest logo/building. Consumers have to be incentivized to choose you over the competition, and most consumers do want to feel like they're getting something hot, unique, or for the best price. There are consumers out there (like myself) who are incentivized enough by simply supporting a moral and hardworking company, but this is the minority for sure. It's ok to want exclusive genes imo, so long as it doesn't mean lying, cheating, stealing, etc.

Just gotta hunt and create the neat expressions yourself. Manifest what you want to see in the world. I think alot of the industry homogenization that we growers fear isn't as encompassing or universal as people think. This plant has an incredibly diverse gene pool, and I don't see that changing unless this gov tries to legally categorize this as it does with tobacco, making it largely illegal to grow/distribute unless you're in their pockets. But we can and will fight that. Just stay positive and keep active.

I might take a gamble and try a few cuts out from pink box. Seems like a lot of sellers on strainly all have very similar menus and pink box has some of the best prices.

Is there any other recommended sellers that people here have flowered out and are legit? I want to find a good OG and maybe norcal dosi. I saw Dookie Farms had some SFV cuts but most other sellers have newer OG hybrids.

I don't have the history on Holy Grail Kush, I've heard it's from seed by DNA Genetics. That proves that popping seeds has the potential to find something original and better than the cuts everyone has. I pheno hunted some Seed Junky and found some of the best strains I've grown.

I found a very nice OG dom Headbanger a few years back but lost it earlier this year.
I have a dank cut of SJG's Wifi#3 x Animal Mints I've kept for a while, it was from the same seed drop that birthed the wedding cake cut, same male just different mom.

Recently is my first foray into clones, I used to have a nice little library of selected mothers. Growing from seed is best imho. I let my ladies go to move across a federal checkpoint/inspection station. For me it was more necessity at this point as I spent a couple years dropping seed with bad luck. It happens, but with plant counts now I just don’t have the capacity for pheno hunting until I can put something reasonable in my jars. I’m actually going back to my own breeding projects pretty soon. I have a male I’m about to test, he’s an og chem from connoisseur genetics. I have tested a few males from this line looking for something specific, there are a couple phenos in this that are, for me, stand out. I have grown out 4 packs at this point. I haven’t been able to locate either of the phenos that I was looking for on the females either I have two that are quite promising right now though they’re about to go pretty soon. Plus I’m working with a real chem d now instead of the Rez bx.

Interestingly enough, right after I made these posts I got a message from a friend I havent seen in several months asking if I wanted some unrooted OG Kush, and Puna White Widow cuts. Tried to ask what OG cut it was but he just said "idk, the original OG kush" so we will see whats up with that. The Widow is super dank though. Been passed around since I was in High School and makes some of the best bubble hash ever.

If its oneoftheluckyones chem d i have it to and its on the chopping block. I ran her 63 and 70 and doesnt hold up to anything else in my stable. Shes got a good rank smell but potency wise shes a day smoke with out a real punch to her compared to other's. Im a tester for CSG and one of his new project hes using his original diesel x chem d bx male that makes some great plants. The fuel i use to have stomped chem d badly all around. Keep an eye out over at icmag for when he needs more testers i think you will find much better girls in there. Im going to test original diesel/chem x skittles even though i already have/had them both by themselves.

Ya I been running ojd gear since he came out. I don’t have a desire to run testers but I’m quite happy with my results from him over the years. The og chem he has now is different than the original run.
I flipped the chem d back at about 5 weeks, I can say it’s the real cut. Terps are verified, my favorite. I know your stoked he is working some fuel again too if you like that. But if chem d didn’t put a good thump on you you probably didn’t run her long enough. She is daytime smoke at 8-9 weeks but 10-11 will give you that deep thump even 12 weeks will really fill in the bud weight too
