who was is Vic High

amrad · May 21, 2010

I used to be a member on the old BCGA web site and always read Vic's comments especially on genetics, the guy was a warehouse of information. And after growing a pack of their mixed seeds one summer became a huge fan of their genetics.
But always intrigued me as to who the man really was, and what became of him. He seems to have vanished, or did he morph into someone else?

amrad · May 21, 2010

I know Vic High stands for I assume Victoria High. And I believe most of bcga came from that area.

He's gone, sadly, left the cannabis world. Subcool stole most of his work to pass off as his own.

amrad · May 21, 2010

ahh geez, I guess you wouldnt care to elaborate? Dont mean to be a noise parker, and certainly dont mean to interfere with his life today in anyway. Was Subcool part of bcga?
And how did he end up with their genetics? It was a group of growers no?

indifferent · May 21, 2010

Well, sub took vic's Super Soil recipe and claimed he came up with it himself. Then 90% of sub's work uses a Space Queen male which is from Vic's work. Vic was a breeding genius, sub is a hack who relies on the work of others (vic).

I think he got paranoid and quit the game/left the internets. Some of his choice clones/selections are still being grown on the island, romberry and orangecrush are alive and well.

I agree with you about subcool .. but at least he is keeping the genes going somewhat.

Fuck, man. I would kill for some Romulan.

amrad · May 22, 2010

yes, his strains had a certain something, sort of reminds me of DJ stuff, very idiosyncratic. LOL Anyway as far as the man goes, I think he was at one time a botanist for the B.C. forest service, but I may be wrong. He's one of those guys that has done so much for modern cannabis breeding and is hardly recognized for his stellar achievements, I guess he left to early, he probably got sick of the politics that are involved with the now cannabis industry. Arnt we all.

I met Vic High in B.C. about 10 years ago, he gifted me seeds and a fine collection of different 'erbal representations of what he had been growing/breeding......seemed like a nice chap....I even took the Romberry seeds to Laos and gifted them to an American grower there who grew them out to great satisfaction....

I'm not sure what has happened to him......after being so vocal for so long on the internet, he seems to have faded away around 6 years ago+, and I haven't heard from him since.....would be nice to see him about again.....I remember some great posts/threads he made from the Overgrow days......

amrad · May 31, 2010

Hummm interesting Gypsy, I wonder if your American grower tried any Romberry crossed with the local strains?

i'm on the hunt for romberry seeds any clues anyone ?

I think that greenlife seeds carry it, the original was clone only if I remember correctly.

i have 1000s of old seeds of bcga strains and subcools early crosses
none labled though but would be a tressure trove for a breeder

blastfrompast · Jan 10, 2014

with none labeled..I'd be leary on the early subcool stuff..and if you do watch out for Hermi's

Prick High was a self righteous, condescending, class 1 A- hole... love that fool to show his face around here ! you out there, Prick High ??? we had a pissing match way back when, and he said I reminded him of himself when he was 21 ( and I happened to be 21 @ the time

) now I ask...how technical is it to hit a Romulan cut with a C99 male ? esp 15 years ago when there were few seedsters in the game
