Then its not the same nl5 we all know and love from the 90s as that was nevils more indica cut unless its literally that it aint what everyone is seeking i can guarantee you that
Idk why even call it NL5 then?

Imo releasing it as a new strain different than NL5 or anything else would help save face from all the "this isn't the real NL" backlash that they'd receive.....and when not expecting NL5; maybe ppl would actually like it lol

The name bit is cos $$ I agree if it was actually like the old nl5 i think it be everywhere it might still be nl5 but they should have added the usa part then at least folk would know its different from nevils his was more indica he even said himself there was very little influence in his of the sativa in it the thai/Hawaiian thai or whatever it is the nl crew is claiming these days think last i heard was mexi now who knows cos they changed storys a few times

A lot of the Old School strains (if not all of them) are not the same anymore if not long gone. What's out there now are distant relatives with the same last name. Like Conner said.. all about the M O N E Y

Some u can still get some are gone forever and only exist in namesame its down to can you get the right line with the right parents? cos if not then it now only exists in namesake or in the genepool of older hybrids at best sad but true cannabis aint even the worst i did some time volunteering at a bird of pray sanctuary years back the amount of species we have wiped out or we have got down to the last breeding pair of is sickening and even then folk would still try and steal em cos its $$ same goes with cannabis some folk lack the morals and will do anything to make a buck so they cash in on the names or worse.

What about CSI/Riots NL5?

It's supposed to tie back to the original....does it? Apparently they got it from Seattle Greg if I'm not mistaken
Todd used same stock
I grew out and fgenned the csi/riot release, found some very good representations in first grow and fgens very reminiscent of late 90s nl5 I was getting in Seattle.
Do I believe the story about lost beans in Seattle Greg’s aunt’s fridge? Highly unlikely story, tall tales in cannabis.
The plants do speak for themselves, so I’m happy to have a big bag of these beans and crosses I made. Whatever it is, it certainly took me back to 1997
