Archive Seed Bank

[Bob Zmuda]

@ zmuda ... yo got me smiling.

good yield , dank nugz, solid representation... im happy to hear all this.
stems? robust? fickle? no special treatment? flower time?

give it all to me.

you kept no clone bro? not to ask for it ....but to say "was that good".

im "shocked" more people dont grow archive here at RIU.
but, if you did content analysis, its seems cheap beans area popular here.
i saw some dude make a dankest ever thread & they voted deep chunk?

LOL!

ill never grow another euro seed as my primary mission.
side work, one and done, okay.

but pay for them.... at this point in the canna game w/ all this great USA gear.
never !

viva the dank in seed from the Doc !
ill be back to post in this thread. for sure.

HA! I feel you on the euro beans. I'm done as well. USA is killing it with beanfire.

Both I grew were very very viney beanpoles. But I top and supercrop always. I then used lots of twist ties and bamboo to lock those hoes down. lol. But yeah I am very happy with the results and will def be buying many more archive strains.

Archive is run by theDocta, Rare Dankess' former head breeder. He is based out of Washington.

 

[professor KIND]

the first time i heard of thaDoc, he was bashing the shit out of Soma (th# f@rmer) for faking NYCD like it was escd.
for jumping on the hype of a USA strain, clone only, basically an heirloom cut.
and giving up a product in seed not even close to escd.

not lying i got bubblegummer going. its from female seeds.

i love sleepy tasty weed.
with the bubblegum flavor, im inclined to grab more beans if the fems dont give me a winner.

ill always appreciate thaDoc , his candor, & his products.

really ? i was under the impression scott reach was the head breeder . thought tha docta was pissed at him for breedung with his cuts after asking scott not to. doubt he worked there...

a quote from archive
Docta helped contribute to the documentation of 3 strains in the original Canna Bible series and has charitably donated a large
portion of his extensive genetic library of clone only strains to be used in original formation of Rare Dankness seeds. A small, incomplete list of some of the clone only heirloom genetics ThaDocta was directly involved with and provided some of the earliest online documentation, verifiable acquisitions, and long term preservation's of are :

I do remember that story,i think it was about that face off og I think.

 

[hayrolld]

You are probably right, I did not get that directly from Doc or Scott. I was under the impression he was in charge of the American side - do you know more about his background you could put up? I am planning to pick up a couple of his strains and always like appreciate knowing more about the breeder.

 

[professor KIND]

dude got rep like obsoul (alien tech & others)

quote from TGA

"This cut comes with a slight mystery. It came from OBsoul when he visited and the bud was truly the stinkiest cheesy bud I have ever seen on this continent and it smelled dead on like the bud I smoked with Pistils in the UK. These buds OB brought up however were tremendous in size almost the size of baseballs and small fist and just uber cheesy. The mystery is the buds I saw in the UK did not look nearly as large or dense. I am hoping this is the difference between cheese grown indoors and Cheese grown under gods big ass HID in the sky.

I will run this and document it fully and it has already been passed to others in my area for more evaluation.

She grows alot like Space Queen tiny which makes since the bud structure is similar.

So without further ado Cheese from start to finish.


Stay tuned"

doc is from PNW.

straight.
simple.

read this. ends all debate : http://www.frank151.com/news/this-week-in-weed-the-docta-of-archive-seeds.html

killer photos from doc too.

 

[professor KIND]

Docta :

ow long does it take to develop a strain from conception to release?

"So for me, my goal is to bring a mother plant into seed form. So it takes me at least two or three generations to find a male that has the selected values of its grandmother. Then I transfer those traits onto any female plants I cross the male with. The time of it varies with the different strains."

&

Where are you from and how did you get into growing and starting Archive?

"I grew up in Virginia. I moved to Washington in my sophomore year of high school and pretty much spent my time in a scene filled with some of the most well known glass blowers in the country. Subsequently there was lots of really nice herb that went with that glass. A lot of the herb I was exposed to at a really young age was some really dank and amazing stuff, like Albert Walker, the Pacific Northwest Dogshit, Williams Wonder, and the UW Purple amongst others. I kind of developed a taste for really amazing stuff at an early age. At some point in high school, I decided I would rather grow than go to engineering school."

Cool article, thanks Prof!

i hate to be a scott reach hater BUT... i think he asked him not to breed with ALL the true cuts scott started with ...
its kinda bullshit to limit somthing like a plant . but if you accept the terms to JUST sell the produce(nugs) your a dummy ...

That's the story I've always heard.

 

[Bob Zmuda]

Either way here's my take on breeder drama: I don't care. Who's beans rock hardest?
