That's awesome! I had seen someone else on instagram that had a Mountaintop Mint with a bit of a freakshow pheno but I assumed it was really rare. I wonder how much that trait will express; it might be worth cutting clones!
I'll monster crop it if the flower is keeper status. I didn't take any cuts in veg.

I made some more Jelly Rancher hash last weekend (from dry cured bud, since the fresh frozen is long gone). It came out a nice tan color, pictures from the day it was made after a couple hours in the freezer. I finally shelled out for the press club plates, so I'm going to let it freeze dry until this weekend when I (hopefully) pick up a shop press and I'll press it for rosin.View attachment 5025997View attachment 5025998
What flavor and scent profiles are you picking up on the Jelly Rancher ? I've got 2 going close to flipping the room to 12 h. I have read a few of the growers journals and cotton candy lemon berries, to strawberries? I was looking for a nice daytime sativa heavy but the fan leaves are rather small on these new hybrids.

Mine is some kind of sweet artificial fruit, like a blue razz or something like that. Fruit-adjacent but not like a real fruit you'd get at the supermarket. I guess you could say cotton candy-ish or like a fun dip or something. Smoke is definitely sativa-dominant, not sedative and it's a goofy, smoke that gives me a bunch of "high-deas".

I'm hopping for a similar experience exactly what I need!

I did a 2 plant jelly run not too long ago and one is straight blue raz candy and the other is a bit cherry/black licorice/blue raz . I agree with GJoe, def a sativa high with energy. Frosty strain for sure. Good luck, drop some pics! Journal? :joint:

I'm trying to get through this thread, but wondering if anyone has grown out their Emerald Fire OG photo OR auto, as i got free autos and they had a good description, but believe they are not that old as i can't find any grows via google. Thanks.

You should enjoy whiffs of dank and gassy. If grown correctly no reason it shouldn't be everything your looking for. They use it in many crosses and all Humboldt Seed Company Strains the real Humboldt Seed Company, not sure about the other HSC over in Spain or whatever. Not sure what the other one is but it's not American. I been meaning to ask Chad or Haley Pennington to clarify that because the strains are not the same and packaging. They do use cool ass wooden boxes though.

Im not sure what you meant to type and to who. Though to clarify, people remain ignorant on HSO. They state on their website, they are based in Spain but source their cuts for breeding from Humbolt. Breeders have confirmed they have given/traded their cuts with this company so they are legitimate. People just don't do the research.

They weren't operating because Pot Sistemak (their parent company) got shut down for a long time for stealing electricity to run the La Mota/Dinafem/HSO breeding operation, it looks like whoever was operating it re-opened it with regional distributors. I don't know who's trading cuts with these folks but they're clearly attempting to market themselves as a Humboldt area breeder which is deceptive. Their about section and blog sections don't make any mention of Spain at all; there is an obvious effort not to be perceived as a Spanish company.

So your acknowledging you know they are based in Spain, and distribute from the US and at the same time say they are trying to hide that they are from Spain XD k... everyone is entitled to their opinions, but only new growers that think Barney's Farm, Greenhouse and shit from Swerve/GU are "fire" don't really know the breeders and the way they do their business. HSO has very legitimate genetics and only gets held back by novice growers that only fixate that they are not based in Humbolt rather than they pay homage to the great growing tradition and genetics that originate from Humboldt as stated int heir about us section.

Hi Everyone,

There's so much info here on CSI Humboldt and Humboldt Seeds Organization. I searched the forum and didn't really find a dedicated thread for Humboldt Seed Company, so I thought I'd start one here.

I just ordered a feminized pack of Humboldt Dream beans from Hembra Genetics. HSC and Hembra both seem like good outfits. This strain looks like it can get quite large when planted straight into the ground outdoors, and the limited number of reviews on Leafly seem really good.

I just thought I'd try to open the door to more conversation about HSC, they seem like a legit breeder from Humboldt, CA.

I was trying to do the same thing a while back but I'm still trying to figure out how to use it correctly. Just last night I remarked on HSO and got a rather weird reply from somebody defending HSO because I said it's not real because they used verified Humboldt region cuts to breed. My response was they don't sell half of what HSO markets and that HSO is still selling Blue Dream ??? HSO is headquartered in Spain. Good job man.
