so I'm on Maui and I've been doing some breeding projects for the last couple years. I always get nice big mature tiger striped seeds but the germination rate is always poor.....maybe around 50-60%. I dry the seeds the same place i dry my herb in a room with a dehumidifier for a few weeks. Any tips?

pollinate earlier maybe? I'm no expert and have only made seeds once, but when I did I pollinated at the beginning of flowering & that gave time for the seeds to develop. I've also read people suggesting to not cut N in flowering if a plants seeded.

not sure how true this info is but its what I'm gonna follow.

maybe you could hit up Good Gear Seeds & ask what their process is? they make a ton of seeds outdoors on big island

FYI Hawaiians
Just picked up some sale price Hilo Hammer packs ( Hawaii Web Indica x Molokai Frost) on Archive Seed Bank for $87. Reg was $125

Looks like fire. :fire:

I miss that soil you can buy in bulk all over the big island, was like 1/3 lava rocks, 1/3 macadamia compost, and 1/3 what...topsoil or something? Definitely the most fun place to grow outdoors. I haven't been satisfied with any of the so called "Hawaiian" strains that are floating around, they're just nothing like what we used to get back in the day. I bought a pack of Ace New Caledonia because it has the look that I remember, old time Pacific sativa.

Grew out some Malawi Gold from Ace this year. Went 12-12 outdoors from seed. Even so grew some large short season winter colas. I'll have to check out the New Caledonia.

They're both the real deal, I gave Thadocta those seeds years ago and he crossed it with his Faceoff and that's probably why he named it that. I grew out some of the Hilo Hammer, it'll definitely knock you out if you not ready :D

I gave CTG the Frost a few years ago and gave him the blessing (which i also got from my friend who gave me the Frost so many years ago now) to sell it. Brotherman probably gives away as much beans as he sells tho lol

I grew out some Malawi crosses in the past and if you have ever grown anything with Malawi, then you can recognize the flavor profile even in the crosses. Great weed!

Alright guys, just checking in, Me Ke Aloha Pumehana, the Highhawyn! :)
