Hey thanks for starting the page for me. I didn’t even know people still used Rollitup anymore until Whytewidow on here emailed me lol. Anyways thanks for being supportive of my brand. Here’s a little summary about me for the people who find this thread...
I’ve been a cannabis grower since 2002(guerilla style back then lol), I remember making my first seeds in 2006 for the hopes of carrying on good weed that I was growing or finding bagseeds with in fire herb. At that time the majority of cannabis on the market cane from really shitty genetics and so when I got something special I started trying to preserve it via Fem Seeds. In 2008 I made the move to SoCal and started acquiring the elite clones of the day, that was when my breeding started to really excel. I still made tons of herm garbage back then along with the occasional something great, but mostly I feel I was just learning at that time. I started buying seeds again heavily around 2011 which I had not done since 2008 because I felt like there was more that needed exploring. As a result I have a pretty nice collection of seeds of that era through today along with some stuff from before that time that was easier to find back then. Anyways it wasn’t until maybe 2012 that I started to figure things out more and started making more connections as to what traits in males led to hermaphroditism in the progeny. I also made the connection that spraying silver was more of an art than a science for reversing a female properly. You can spray the heck out of a plant if all you care about is the pollen, however silver acts like a poison on the plant along with denying the female hormone. Think about it like as if you took small doses of cyanide, not enough to kill you on the spot though. Silver is essentially the same idea as that, it won’t kill the plant in small doses but it certainly will destroy the DNA at a molecular level if overdone. That is why today there’s a trend amongst newer breeders and even a few older ones who simply haven’t made that connection and as a result their fem lines see exaggerated mutant, hermaphrodite, and other negative traits you don’t want in your progeny. That all said I want to go on the record that there is no such thing as a fully stable cannabis line at this time. We as breeders are working against millions of years of inbreeding of a plant that was bred in nature for absolute survival. Many landraces of cannabis express themselves as Monoecious rather than Dioecious which means they always have both male and female parts, it would actually appear that all cannabis is rooted to a Monoecious heritage when you go far enough back in time. That said the Dioecious varieties that we grow and love today are still rooted in those older gene pools and so when females in nature were not exposed to pollen the females naturally began to “stress out” and create their own pollen. It is only via landraces where the male and female gene pools were kept in proper populations that we see cannabis we refer to as “stable”. However stable cannabis is still a slight misnomer, if you run 1000 seeds of any strain you will always find herms. The idea for people like me who have had the years around cannabis to recognize the traits that make hermaphroditism common is too ween them out as best we can. A major focus on my brand has always been overall stability. Whereas some people are releasing strains where if you ran 100 you’d find 25 herms, my focus is trying to limit the occurrences to under 10% so that you won’t have to deal with the issue often or hopefully at all. I can proudly say most of my drops have tested around 4-7% unstable on extremely wide runs. Considering how absolutely imperfect cannabis genetics are at this time I’m quite proud of those numbers. I started making drops in 2014 via freebies through Greenline Seed Company. It was a year and a half later I put out the next drop and that was the first time I charged money and had real packaging. I’ve always stayed loyal to Greenline since he absolutely did help my brand launch and he also helped me acquire a few clones that have been really instrumental in my breeding program. I do recognize that some people have had an issue with him in the past. Almost every complaint I’ve heard with him has been related to the speed of delivery. Originally he was fast fast. And then he got invested in 5 other businesses as time went on and his customer service definitely dropped off, and he for awhile only sent order out a couple times a month or maybe even just once. I recognize that those problems turned a lot of people against him. However that’s a big part of why he chooses to charge only minimal upcharges on breeders seeds. He knows he’s not going to get the order out the next day and that you’ll have a slight lag, right now he runs a lot of other businesses and only dedicates a day a week to the Seedbank from what he tells me. Every person who has ever brought a seed order complaint with GL to me later told me they were 100% taken care of.
Anyways that him, and I am me. We are indeed separate people and I’m not entirely sure where the confusion on that started. I think it has something to do with a misinformation post that Relentless made a long time ago where he claimed we were the same guy(even though he personally knew that wasn’t true). I have been at several events where GL was also present, there are literally thousands of people in this industry who can clarify we are not the same person LOL
Just thought I’d put that out there for anyone who finds this thread.
My latest reg release is among my most special ever and they are limited to 30 packs per strain being released. They were made with a male that I’ve taken out to F3 over the last four years. The candy Skittle terps are unreal!! Far exceeding Zkittlez terps which I indeed also crossed with my Sin City Kush F3 male.
I offer my seeds directly.
Early next year I will unveil my brand new packaging and logo along with my new fems, which I have not released new fems in almost two years now so be ready for some new new heat from Honest Genetics here soon! I also have a website in the works.
I tend to take my time on things, I like to make sure my selections are right.
