Would you want ACE Seeds to carry Romulan?

That is really cool that you found that, never heard most of that stuff.. all I had heard was this connection and either Canadian or US Korean war veterans bringing home seeds. Such an awesome read brother, thanks for finding that. :)

I thought it was cool especially because it literally was a 30 second google search for Korean cannabis history.
Would I be correct to say that we’re building a general consensus that it is probably Korean/Chinese rather than Korean Thai? I still feel like some genetic testing in conjunction with opinions well versed in East Asian cannabis traits will be more solid than some historical breadcrumbs linked by a potheads logic:big-grin with that said I do think it’s a more likely explanation than Thai genetics coming out of Korea.
Maybe there’s someone out there with more direct knowledge of marijuana’s genetic history in that area (cough cough Thereverend cough)
Anyways I’m glad I could contribute a little t bit:tiphat:

All I can say is the story goes they brought it home from Korea. So it could be anything in the general area, yet was called Korean Thai because it came from Korea and was Thai.

I've never really put too much thought into it, because the story is coming from old timers that I honestly would trust with my life. Good old boys, that always seemed to be a step ahead of their time. ;)

I was probably wrong and your source was probably right about the Korean Thai thing:tiphat:
Thailand was one of first Nations to join UN call to arms in Korean War.

Don’t know about fact checking but this seems legit enough on the surface...

Maybe it’s Chinese as you say but they called it Thai so people had a clue what to expect. Thai was probably some of the only weed from that area in the world that anyone had tried much.
I can see a POW bringing seed back and saying it’s Korean but it’s just like Thai weed..

That's a great story, good find my friend. Must not have caused paranoia, otherwise you'd think the number of POW's using it daily would be lower.
Thanks for posting that.
Peace, God bless

Lol I think they said some guys got high as fuck and freaked out and they just told the Chinese “oh.... it’s shell shock... yea man. Toootally”

I might be paraphrasing a bit...

I thought I'd ask some people what they thought of ACE possibly carrying Romulan?

What we have is made from old seed stock, and has some slight variety in the phenos but almost all are really strong pine scents/taste. A few run purple, and some rare ones are quite unique. I felt like asking around as ACE seems to mainly carry old landrace strains and the like.. and I think Luis' interest in our Romulan is in that it is a poly-hybrid of 4 landrace strains.

What do you all think.. Is it appropriate? :chin:

how about some show and tell ? let us see the phenos pics tests whatever you can share with us. Sounds like great to list with ACE

Ahhh I see. I bet if you go to his website it is. I never checked though... hopefully he posts up some of what your after.
For my own purposes I’m assuming it will be a pretty classic American sativa shape but maybe a little more compact and tighter internodes and bud formation from Afghani influence..
lol now I feel like I should check his website and see..

You need to speak to people like mustafunk. They have sent deadlines to ACE, only for ACE to capitalize on it. If they approached you then they are interested in your line from commercial perspective. If you want to be a breeder/seed distributor then I would say do the hard yards yourself and reap what you sow
