Humboldt Seed Company (HSC) Thread

Not yet, I only got it about a month or so ago. I'll probably give it a go eventually. Where did you hear that it's low potency?

Not low potency per se but the blurb for the strain puts it in the high teens

VERY CHERRY CANNABIS SEEDS

This strain produced record amounts of terpenes in the extraction. Likely to produce only 18% THC but incredibly loud and very unique! MORE

This strain produced record amounts of terpenes in the extraction and is one of the best-smelling varieties we’ve ever created. That says a lot considering we created Blueberry Muffins. Likely to only produce around 18% THC but incredibly loud and very unique! Breeding seeds passed to us by a local old-timer, we found a plant that smelled just like cherry cough drops, and have continued working that into this sweet cherry blossom masterpiece. Perfect for sauce and terpene forward projects, this strain will not disappoint the discerning nose!

Oh crap, I meant Jelly Rancher was the freebie. My bad.

I'm growing outdoor, so it's early in the flowering cycle and I haven't harvested my JR yet but I'm running 5 and I'm very happy so far. It flowers quickly, it has tight internodal spacing, the terpenes on mine are starting to come in and it smells like some blue raspberry fruit candy or something like a sour belt.

SBBCal and Piper84 both have grows of it on this forum and I've seen @nosaltgrows and @overlyengineered on Instagram grow it and everything I've seen makes me excited to harvest it. It seems to be a very popular strain and I totally understand why.

Day 4/5 drying- the terps/frost are great, just watch the stretch in flower... not sure about outdoor, but mine just kept going. Also were light feeders as well. Happy growing
** I smoked a few nugs and I'm getting a bit of cherry. Forgot it was in the JRanchers

Chopping a blueberry muffin tomorrow, and planted 3 lemongrass with tails this morn after the moon. Not a lemon kush fan but that cross intrigues me. I see many starting to use that vanilla frosting one in crosses.

Thought you didn't like berry terps either, or I may be thinking of someone else. But that blueberry muffin has me thinking about scoring a pack, along with ak's blueberry too.

I saw someone asking if HSC would be at a cannabis conference in Chicago, and they linked the commenter to a Chicago bank who I suppose will be in attendance.

Anyways, I checked out their website and they were selling packs for $81 with free shipping, which is enough of a deal that I decided to go for one (Vanilla Creme Pie). I've never used them before, so we'll see how it goes, but I'll report back when I get the pack; thankfully HSC marks their packs with date of mfg.

I got the seeds today, so I feel comfortable plugging the website because it's a legitimately good deal; I've never seen HSC this cheap before. I paid venmo some time in the evening and they shipped UPS with tracking the next day.

The HSC catalog has been my go to place for internet seed browsing but I haven’t made a purchase yet. I love that they actually take the time to write descriptions but only thing holding me back is committing $100 to a full 10 pack of a single strain. Any recommendations on strains to start with? I’m in Massachusetts growing indoor and outdoor greenhouse.

The hundred bucks gets you 10 fem. seeds. Or 20 regular.

Had a couple packs with an extra seed or two.

Good suggestion, quick service as I needed to secure some Jelly Rancher.

What I liked the most was free shipping was over $80 and HSC packs were on sale for $81...

So many times I've seen a company have free shipping with sale items that just miss qualifying. It's really great to see a company choose the other way, bravo chitown.

Yeah, I thought that was awesome. The only major downside for me is that their website is kind of clunky and it's hard to know what's in stock, as well as not being able to sort, but their prices are reasonable and I didn't have any issues with service.

Humboldt Seed Co announced the rename today.

I don’t really, but had an opening and it was a freebie plus what’s been said. It’s pretty good, it’s it’s namesake for sure. Of course, I knock it some for potency, but it’s ok. Feels like it has a CBC/cbn component to the buzz, imho. Sure pretty and does got the smell and taste

I grew their Blueberry Muffins and I was less than impressed. Colorful bud but a mediocre buzz. But id sure love to get my hands on that Pineapple Upside Down Cake. I rarely run across a seedbank that has any of their gear left. They sell out too damn fast

The Blueberry Muffin I grew wasn't the most potent but it didn't feel weak. Very relaxing and pleasant smoke but not a strong head high I felt. It was good enough that I'm running a cutting of it outdoors, at least.

As far as the seeds, Chitown seeds and Hembra are both carrying pineapple upside down cake. Chitown is cheaper, Hembra gives freebies.

Has anyone grew out their Sour Diesel? I grew out the HSO version, it was decent stuff, but Im always on the hunt for a better SD

It's not a straight sour D but a sour D Bx3 x Humboldt Headband f4 (Headband x PPD). I have not grown it

I did last year , California sour diesel. I haven't tried the humboldt sour diesel yet.
- they grew out big, I ended up cutting at day 74, good smoke but I was early. Ended up using most on edibles and oils. If you have the time and space I'd recommend. I think I still have a few seeds so I'll be giving them another go sometime. They def had those funky gas terps going on.
