great stuff man!...i will be outcrossing both the Critical Mass & Critical Skunk to enhance the quality of smoke as well
btw are you venturing into the new releases from MNS such as the Roadkill Skunk etc?
I've got 75 beans of the NEW SKUNK. It's going to be my next MNS strain I run. Originally I was going to crack 25 seeds of them. But I changed course. About a month ago for no specific reason I just decided it was time for me to try something different. Originally I started with MNS for a couple of reasons. Number 1 is ever since I saw the first white widow pics I swore I was going to try these guys sometime in life.
Before I made the leap I did a lot of reading. Everyone has to make a choice for their own reasons. My thinking was simple. I don't want anyone copying my work and stealing my customers. Many seed companies bought seeds from them and started a business copying their work and changing names. Personally I'll avoid that if I can.
Secondly I don't like people making choices for me. Any company who sells strains that originated from MNS has selected phenos along the way. In doing so they're also removing some traits at the same time. So I'd rather do the selecting myself.
Even though Nevil has since left at the time he was still part of it. Between him an shanti having all the parents that made greenhouse seeds famous. As well as having put in the actual work growing them. Who else better to trust? There aren't many people with the experience those 2 have.
Third my God have you seen the prices on the auction site? I was patient and I just kept an eye open and picked up everything I wanted when the price was right. Very rarely did I pay more than 1/2 price. And as a beginner I could know I got the real genetics striaght for the guys themselves. Who more than them want to make sure people get what they're paying for in a pack of their seeds? Some wholesalers won't send seeds in breeders packs. How am I really supposed to know they didn't switch my seeds with some bags seeds they got?
