Stressful and early is not the best combo. Like, give me that adrenaline rush then immediately back to sleep lol.

Does anyone know how many packs of the Puck crosses seedbanks are getting on average? I know the last go around there were 150 packs total of the BC2, but it seems the others are low numbers too.

Anyone with NL knowledge care to explain the difference between the NL, NL1, NL2? Which is the preferred cross?
Seeds here now has great descriptions of all the crosses from the latest drop.

@GrownAtHighAltitude nailed the descriptions of northern lights afaik

He seems to say the NL5 is a Hawaiian Sativa x Steve Murphy's Afghani

The NL1 is 100% Indica type. I am starting to think it is nothing more than Steve Murphy's original Afghani?

NL2 is a hybrid of The Indian (Afghani hybrid) x Steve's Afghani.


Northern Lights is not a single variety, it is a set of hybrids created by the Northern Lights Crew by crossing Steve Murphy’s Afghani to a number of varieties. The numeric system used to name the Northern Lights varieties 1-11 was based on their size and trait expression with the lowest numbers representing the most pure Afghan and the highest numbers representing the most narrow-leaf equatorial drug types.
When matt riot and that other dude interviewed seattle greg, he said nl1 was a cross of steve murphy's afghan and a mazar-i-sharif that nevil collected. It's hard to know the truth when greg has alzheimers and everyone with his seeds tells a slightly different story.

Alzheimer's, that's news to me.

My NL package arrived today. This will be my next lineup in flower, including Brood X which is currently in storage. Throwing the Star Fucker in for another Sensi cross (Sensi x 91 Chem BX2). Unfortunately, the flower room won't be available for another 6-8 weeks, so I'm looking at October before these are ready to enjoy.

Here's the current run in flower with a couple of C & C strains. I had an Overkill male with a stem rub that was just rank, 5/8 stem and excellent structure. I'll be keeping the clone of him.

Bohdi - Mother's Hashplant Remix
Bohdi - Dragon's Milk
Copa - GSD F6
Crickets & Cicada - Overkill
Crickets & Cicada - Lights of Venus
Dominion - Dominion G
Top Dawg - NYC Chem F2
Lucky Dog - Hunza Valley 91
Omureta - Thousand Oaks F5

I found this from 2014 on a Mr. Nice forum. This quote is on page 2:

"Aloha, The 11 packets of seed Nevil received were graded the #1 ,2, 3, were 100% indica, #5 the clone I traded Herbie Nelson for was 50% Afghani & 50% Hawaiian sativa. The others #6-#11 were crosses with Columbian, Thai, and Mexican Sativas. Nevil then sold out to Ben, became partners with Arjan, and then hooked up with the Mr. Nice Crew."

Just received a shipment from SeedsHereNow for the presale beans I ordered. Was supposed to get the Chem91, G13HP, and OG Kush x Puck BC but all I got in the package was a Crickets and Cicadas sticker, some freebie beans from a no-name seed co, promo material from the seedbank, and a raffle ticket for some unrelated giveaway.

I called SHN customer support and they're trying to track it down. They said they recently moved their distribution to Oklahoma.

The fact that the seeds are not there is a little concerning to me.


I received my JBC order with all 3 NL crosses just fine last week.
