The Strains of Yesteryear
By DJ Short
Excerpt on Hawaii..
"I have tried to equal the Hawaiian experience outdoor on the mainland, and indoors, with no success. Everything I have grown from Hawaiian stock turned out to be nowhere near the quality of the parent stock. This is true for three generations of trials. The product from Hawaiian seed was equal to the best plants grown from mid-quality Colombian stock!
This led me to a hypothesis about Hawaii: that just about any stock grown in Hawaii will turn out to be of unique and relatively high quality.
Hawaii just happens to be one of those special places, I suppose."
Always good to be reminded how lucky we are to be growing here on the Islands...
