in Amsterdam there is a cut that is called Hawian Haze....its like a haze but sweeter and tastyer...

because the cut takes 19 weeks the 2ekarmer coffeeshop only gets it 2 times a year.....ive seen Greenhouse and Dutch Flowers grow the same type of cut ,but ive only seen it 1 time from them .....2ekarmer coffieeshop said they get it 2x a year......its amazing

true englishrick, that hawaiian haze cut is truely amazing, i had the pleasure to try her maybe 6-8 years ago and i still remember her as one of the best haze hybrids i've ever tried. I tried her a few years later again but was not as good, not grown to perfection. I'd love to grow the cut here outdoors!

my thought exactly....it has not been grown up to a good standard for years.....Amsterdam is crap for buying weed...knowone wants to sell "Propper Tasty Stuff"....

icmag should develope its own supply in Amsterdam....its a joke how bad Amsterdam weed is.....where the hell are the Ogkush and ChemD...

the cut is good tho!!!...2ekarmer, Greenhouse,Dutchflowers.....everyone had it back then...someones gotta been keepin the good stuff alive over there

im sure you would love it, if you had that cut.....i bet you would do top job on it too.....

Whoever started this "they are inferior when grown off island." BULLSHIT needs to shut the fuck up. Just look at Norcal, they have Hawaiian lines GALORE. I swear that I have had Hawaiian from Norcal that was as good or even better that the same strain grown in Hawaii,by the same people. The thing is when you are a visitor to the Islands, you don't always get the best. Most of the PRIMO local grown we keep for ourselves. Sourcing really good seeds is hard for outsider's here. The locals just really don't open up to the tourists like that. It may be different on other Islands, but I doubt it.

I'm not looking to enter this conversation at all, but only wish to share this writing by DJ Short. This may be where the "belief" comes from.

Hawaiian

Hawaiian a true classic. There is something special about a good island herb, and Hawaiian is among the best. When properly grown outdoors it has a wonderful and unique bouquet of fruity spice, similar to the sweetness of the fine Thai, but with a kind of tangy taste.

Good Hawaiian herb has always been a devastatingly powerful experience for me. It is very psychedelic and internally focused, contemplative and overpoweringly meditative. A Walk with the King, a Dance with the Queen, and a sunset on the beach! Aah... Hawaiian!

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.

All breeding attempts with Hawaiian stock were dumped from my garden by 1983. It was a pretty and robust plant though, and also quite productive. Just not all that impressive when grown outside its homeland.

Aloha :joint: Kauai Electric is a VERY hard to find strain in original form. I doubt very many people did a breeding project with her. In the Islands not very many growers keep records, let alone keep a strain pure for generations. Lots of hybridization and labelization, just to make a much needed buck. Unless you have good friends here, most people will tell you what you want to hear regardless of truth or origin. Sad but true.

,
You are looking on the wrong island first off. Big I strains are different from Kauai, which is different from Maui, which is different than Oahu ect... Second off the Electric was an indoor strain, thus the name Electric. Most indoor growers worldwide keep their mouths shut, imagine an island :nono: Third off, the strain is dated, oldschool. Finding pure, well kept seeds or clones is like finding a buried treasure. Good luck. I live in Hawaii and believe me the "Kauai Electric" is oldschool. I have only run across 2 verified instances in the last 10 yrs. The bud was ok. Defiantly had the Kauai vibe though. I can see why you want to hunt this down. I wish you luck :rasta:
P.S. There is way better strains than the Electric, try to source some of those, you stand a much better chance. Aloha

Id have to agree,, i get plenty friend and family around the island>> and i cannot even get hands on many of old strains. we used to have a very nice puna buddah x white widow... but not big island pure version..those who have lived in islands know how much of a siege has been waged against outdoor growers, forcing everyone indoors or importing commercial. It is sad that a place once heralded as one of epicenters of ganja growing, is now one of the most heavly imported scenes in cannabis cultures....

Its the volcanic soil that makes it so much better when growing in hawaii. For example the onion known as tyler onion because its from tyler texas is sweet and tasty but that same onion grown in hawaii is way better and much sweeter know as maui sweet onion. volcanic soils make everything grown in them better.

I was under the impression the main component that defined the "volcanic" soils was silica. Clay soil is very heavy in silica as well

You need to go to basics if cannabis is week it will be week if its grown in the best soil or the worse soil.

Hawiian genetics that i my self smoked and grew were very unique lines and the plant i rember the most was very special even grown away from hawiia my friends decades later still talk about it.

i have to agree with JITAMON, u guys are definately not getting the cream. i know that not even my boiz arent getting the best shit that i grow. whoever grew it deserves to get the fruits of their labor and definately, not no haoles gonna be getting that good good. I do agree that maybe there is a little special essence to bud grow out in Hawaii, but aint no scrag buds gonna be near good just because it was grown here thats for sure.

good luck on the quest monkey

"not no haoles gonna be getting that good good"
^ Howzit bruddah? Why you say no Haoles? Talkin outta ur hole no truth. Pakalolo is hard to find cause of the BATU!!! People with da kine usually only sell Kama'aina yes, but it there and it good. Those tweaks try a rob everyone on island, and the cali bud come to fill supply. If you in know you can find it, if not won't happen- haole or not bruddah!!! You sound racist like KKK. I walk thru Waimanalo or Waianae white like cloud and have no problem bruddah. Only people who eva bother me is tweaks, and they only steal. It help to be 6'3" 255#. It took a lot of sour poi, ahi poke, and maunapua for me get this big. You won't see the electric off of Kauai. The strain and seed are very closely held by those that have it. It is harder to find than the waimanalo blueberry, or the molokai frost/green. It not like the south big island where the budda can be found easy. It is as hard to find as the redeye/red hair, or the Lahaina lime green citrus tasting buds.

My friends on island say that the short season Kauai Electric is almost perfectly cured now. The old Hanalei bay strain "puff the magic dragon" is also making a comeback as the guy who had held those seeds for ages finally was kind enough to give a few beans to some local growers.

Hawaii rocks for ganja..I bought a bag on the Big Island in 1991 for 200. It was a half zip that consisted of @ 6-7 buds. Bright green with many other colors. Buds were dense. It was pretty fresh..I got lucky period. A conversation started over the dope car my husband and I rented and led to the purchase. Been wanting some more ever since..,the last joint of the bag got me just as baked as the first one..
