it is 2020 not 2001, the most popular variety here is white russian, if you want uniform plants, it is the best bet, folks are growing it outdoors massively here last 15 years, they grew dp blueberry or durban too, but these stopped to be reliable 10 years ago, so everybody is doing white russian. it is still the same as it was. if you want knock out stone. it is the best choice for white strain these days.

I must ask, although it doesn’t really matter to me seed wise, how is it ok to sell your half of the company, then take all the stock with you?
Doesn’t sound very honest or ‘stand up’ to me.
Just my opinion, of course

WHITE RUSSIAN: AK-47 x WHITE WIDOW
No hybrid offered by retail seed breeders is uniform and what was around 20 years ago including haze seams to be a lot better than whats been hyped today.
I got my seed from Shanti around 2001 and even Pacific used MrNice seed to seek out a male widow for breeding.I dont know what there current widows is like as i have not grown it but the original White widow that won the cup came from him.
Shanti and his wife/partner owned 50% of GHS the only thing that changed with the white lines when he sold his % of GHS and started MrNice was the names.
I did a full grow log on my widow grow back in cannabis world years ago from seed germ to harvest the 2 plants i posted pictures of here were my selected females and both were very strong.
I dont know when the seeds were made i grew maybe 2000 maybe before.
I find it funny that so many knock Mrnice and yet all the serious growers went to them for seed from 2000 when i joined CW/OG.
GHS ran out of seed after shanti left and had no seed until franco joined GHS some time after.Whats even worse is Mr Haze a mr nice seed retailer from Holland posted admitting he had sold Arjan / Franco F1 seed from Mr nice and that is how they managed to select plants and re stock there seed .
Franco did not even know the widow males id and i would bet money Arjan to this day can not tell you it also and the widow male is what was used in the Shark and Rhino.
Shanti gifted me 2 unreleased widow lines one you could only buy flower of in Coffee shops it was called White Butterfly i also have different stages of the widow in its development i also know the males id along with the moms do YOU.
Where did I debate if the widow came from the current owner of MrNice? I think I was pretty clear that I grew MrNice Shark Shock and Black Widow which I compared to the 90s versions of Great White Shark and White Widow, which were made by that guy but sold through GHS as he did back then. So I know he used to work there I don’t know why your rant about the current owner of MrNice, his life partner, GHS company and their current owner and his now deceased former partner, then when it comes to the only thing I asked you about, your experience and which expressions you saw, you say you grew two females and they were ”very strong”, the end. LOL
Ask yourself if you can answer the question if the one you grew was the same as the one sold in the 90s, if not, then it won’t matter much as we’re talking about two different things. I don’t care if you can id the males if the seeds aren’t the same then it doesn’t really matter what id the guy making the seeds told you he used for his plants does it…
of course I was a serious grower, I went to those sites a bit earlier and I also found out about MrNice earlier than 2000, how do you think I have the experience of commenting if I didn’t? I wouldn’t think of doing such a stupid and pointless things as talk about a variety I never grew so yes of course I got seeds from MrNice… that’s what my comment was about. Not what the owner told me or what other people wanted to do or did.
I have read through the stuff online and thought the same thing- if you are going to break up a company, you either leave with your stock or accept money.
No matter anyway, they are probably all working together- creating the rivalry to increase sales.
Much like wrestlers do.
I agree. and then we have these folks on internet, they try to act like normal growers, but talk like mns seed sale agent: "only mns has original, only mns has the best, buy mns, dont buy hazeman or serious, give your money to mns"
one guy posted some pics of greenhouse 97´neville´s haze plant and put new mns neville´s haze packs around it. LOL haha
The same happened with ssh, I asked him for old ssh seeds, he sold me 1 pack and auctioned others after asking him, but none resembled the original ssh in smell or taste
thx but to be honest, all 8 seeds i grew were almost the same pheno. so less variation ive never seen before, could have been clones
You need to suck you head in Stocktont and stop being a dick trust me i get it you dont like me but what makes you think i like you ?.
The widow i grew is the same line that won the cup and the F2s sold by people like Fet and Joey also came from same seed i grew.
Shanti was the breeder Arjan was the sales man nothings changed.
Lastly widow male not widow males and were are your pics of the widow you grew.My widow selections were so good i made F2s from both plants.
Show us the pics of your widows its that simple i don't understand why it has to be complicated i shared my experience with the line along with pics of the 2 females i selected along with my suggestions for were to buy seed and in you come with insults and an over inflated ego and self importance.
Spare us all your bull shit and stop derailing the threads.
