And the plot thickens.. LOL. Well Reef, your panama red line wasn't legit according to the old timers in my family who ran it. There's a line that goes 20+ weeks from breeders choice that's supposed to be the real deal. Would be nice to get your thoughts on that. The other lines I've been curious about were the North Indian used in "bertha", and Vietnamese you were selling at hemp depot for 180 a pack. Ya know, the one with zero percent germ rate. Maybe you've got some pics?
The Panama red line was actually traded to use by Hashgar or I can't remember his name he a major poster he got really pissed when I sold it but we traded him genetics for the line that he could do with what he wanted .
The north indian line was collected north of Amritsar India near the boarder with Pakistan , my Children went to boarding school in Amritsar I have 2 unique lines 1 Kush type line and a second more lowland cultivar we used 3 males to pollinate our Burmese line from the taller low land variety , the other I call Golden temple aka Hapy hindu .
The Viet line I have is called Hao Bac or silver flowers , I have a good friend from Vancouver Island who is from Dalat Vietnam , for a couple years I had asked him to get the Kamir strain he had been saying was better than Willie finally in 06 he went home for Christmas and I received a card from him with those seeds in it and yes I am growing it now and I likely can and will post pictures of it .
I have have asked permission to post our entire library on line I will find out tuesday what my boss thinks about that .
Its funny how subjective different opinions again I am sorry you did not find the Panama red to your expectations .
Charles:thank you:

Hi Reef

Wow, you sure are in a better place these days!

I couldn't think of a better thing for you to do than to acknowledge c-ray like that. Good form!

I want to address one last topic that is people say I have not stayed working with any "group" very long .

Let me say I really really got burned in Netherlands in a big way I was a sheep with wolves , I have tried working in different groups since. I will generally invest 6-8 months into a project and see who exactly delivers if its not a good fit I am out that simple .
In some cases things are really not progressing in a positive way its better to leave before there is conflict .
Also if someone says different things behind your back than to your face its best to bail , a majority of people who have solicited me have had the primary goal of exploiting me in some regard which is cool as long as you say what you mean and do what you say .

I had made agreements and partnerships with people who than bring in another partner or consultant and everything changes from what was agreed , I have to ask myself when I am committing energy is this a worthy compromise of my time or would I rather be in the bush with my family .

Than there is the family test something I learned in south American would I have this person to my home with my family if that answer is ever no I should not be there either .
People follow your instinct its often correct and try to be sober 70% of the time and you will make better decisions .
Haha
Peace
Charles

I enjoy reading your posts and I'm glad your back. I've been lurking this forum and others for a long time, ever since the Overgrow days. I not a huge contributor because I like to keep a low profile. I learned early to listen more and talk less. I've always enjoyed your genetics and your character. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience.

Its nice to inspire you to post ! thanks so much for your kind words of support I am glad you have enjoyed my strains and post over the years .
I miss overgrow I put lots of work into that web site , RC was also the most honest ethical seed seller I ever worked with he helped me to establish my brand way more than Emery ever did its a real shame we lost him , my business model would have been different had my relationship with RC not been cut short by the feds .

reef, there are a few strains that seem to perhaps have a very good synergistic effect when used in hybrids;purple haze, burmese are a couple. i have a burmese different than the one you used and it seems to me from early test results to be better in hybrids.

i would like your thoughts on "synergistic strains" in general and your burmese's synergistic effects in particular.

i also had zero germination results with hao bac (silver leaf). i am still very interested in obtaining this strain. is there any way that some of your elite genetics can be made available from a third party source even though you might personally be constrained from doing so?

imo, van isle Burmese is a go to strain as a pollen source. as reef says " everything it touches, turns to gold ! " have seen a 2 lb'er of pure burm, done outdoor in BC. some boterytis, but cured to a golden brown hue and tangy taste ;) potency is up there too boot

I have a Burmaberry cut from 2005 seed stock. Smell and taste are epic!

Thanks for the reply Reef. Would be nice to see your library. As for the Panama Red, I've yet to see any replication offered that holds a candle to the original. That's why I asked if you were familiar with HHF or zamalito's lines. My uncle ran only ten seeds from your line though so I'm sure there could have been more potential there.
I asked about the North Indian because I assumed it was a roadkill skunk type. I figured the crossing to Burmese would have been right up my alley.
Right now there's a breeder named karma working with some of your old lines and having people test them out on another site. Was wondering what your thoughts were on that.

Hi Guys the stuff Karma got was all old crap that I left in a fridge in Dam , I would be shocked and amazed if any of that germinated and if it did there is a reason it was left behind .

Damn, I may have fallen for the scam and bought some of these at this year's SF cannabis cup. I too remember your genetics from back in hte OG.com days and when I say the booth with reeferman genetics of course I bought some VB x NYCD (King's Ransom). 2 weeks into flower and who knows what im going to get but damn these things stretch.

my LP1 cut, gifted by reef, is an all time keeper. big yields of lemon pledge/piney buds and massive colas. high mean THC average and can be cut @ 8 wks, but vastly improved yields and quality after 9-10 wks... easy to grow/clone but can be a PM magnet if humidity and temps fluctuate too drastically ;) finishes outdoor at 49'N, coastal BC, by Halloween, but is much more suitable for greenhouse production. Here on the island, a lot of LP is mis-labled/flogged as "Hawaiian", for whatever reason?! makes outstanding dry sift, bubble and hash oil, light coloured and very heady. certainly deserves it's cup winning status

G-13 ( can't recall if is Pacific or Airborne ) x SMCG ( Santa Marta Columbian Gold ), is what I've been told. I think he said there was LP #'s 1-5 and the #2 was a "rootbeer" G-13 leaning phenotype with massive yields.
-ps, sorry to Charles if any of my take on LP is false, but i'm pretty certain that's
that ;)
