Had it been a normal NYS fall I would have had to harvest them maybe 2 to 3 weeks earlier due to cold but more important than that lots of clammy “RAIN” luck of the draw I guess…I posted up some MAC1 pics in Star’s MAC1 diary thread that were growing right next to the Toxic Truffle plants@Drumskinz Those are gorgeous.. I love it when I get to see what others find. Any info on mold resistance is good to know. I'll add those to my IG feed. Let me know what your IG name is I will tag you. She looks like an awesome keeper..Killer outdoor gown bud..

I know that pack of seeds well. I have some sitting myself. (A5s1)
I haven't listened to the TomHill episodes of the PotCast - think they were subscription only and I'm on a rice and beans life style currently, so my ears will remain deprived for the time being.
I've been watching the "Purest Indica" stuff on IG. Not sure what to think about Todd. How sincere he is and how dedicated he is to the plant vs just being another well connected seed mill, like Bodhi. (no offense intended, I've always held that opinion and the Berner collab just cracks me up to no end because it just speaks VOLUMES)
I'm interested in what you find in that old line. Good luck!!!
PERSONALLY - your next project, when working with such pure gene pools, I'd suggest you at least do some personal stash of your haziest x your best indica and visa versa. Inbred reciprocal cross. Then let that be your P1 BEFORE you add anything else into the equation.
Go the route you already are, just make yourself the PUREST true F1 hybrid you can for the stash.

My BH7 x A5(r) cut - IS a commercially viable haze. It came from KG and Yo Sammy's efforts. Same as the beans you just started. Very special stuff to be found in those beans. Seed lottery, you know the deal.
I don't know about things out where you are, but due to Piff Coast Farms - the haze revival is full blown and the east coast is on a different tick these days. There is some form of haze in so many gardens these days, it's only a matter of time before more excellent examples surface.
Holy Communion, via Piff Coast - is the closest thing I have encountered that has a true new school commercial structure and look, that still retains the old school piff profiles. The flower I sampled was selected by Masonic Seeds - and I have some seeds from his selection x Wilson!.
It interesting how much is going on these days...stuff is blowing up and everyone is a grower...LOL...

I'm not into anything on a commercial scale. All that stuff is beyond my abilities with the space I have. Just an old man doing what I love. With such a small seed lot of A5hs1 and B7XA5 to select from I work with what I find. The odds are not great ill find something next level. I'll take some luck any day lol. I think I can make something good, time will tell.There is a lot of lost value in doing a true (a x b) x (b x a) for a ab P1 line. The idea, is to make sure you have all sets of possible gene traits available in both parents, so they actually recombine vs deviate. This is used in commercial agriculture and animal breeding all the time, to increase stability when sorting hybrids.
We've been doing it wrong, the entire time. Me too. All of us. What we do works...sure. It could work better.
I wasn't suggesting you take in clones, only letting you know, if the seed lottery hits for you, and you have the a5s1, then I know you had the others too. You should hunt them. Very interesting and some very good flower in those beans. All I was trying to say.
Good vibes, dude. Back to the beat of your own drum.

Yeah, me either. I just go very very lucky with the plant I got from the BH7 x A5.
My main goals are just to enjoy what I have and to find some consistency within my cycles. Make use of what I have before me and hope I use it intelligently.
Not all of us can do a pheno hunt with 15 seeds and have that #22 be a banger. (or whatever Berner said) ... lolz
