3 Tips For New Growers

The best tip I can give any new grower is to enjoy the process. It is amazing how much you can learn about yourself, while learning how to care for and grow plants to their full potential. Take each failure in stride, and learn from mistakes that inevitably will come.

Another tip would be to reach out to others for help. Join grow communities like online forums, sites like discord, etc.. There are lots of places to get help!

And my 3rd tip would be to grow as many seeds as you can from different breeders and seed companies out there. You will eventually find people who make things that are perfect for you and for what you enjoy about Cannabis. Seeds and genetics can be like music, so find your favorite artists!

Favorite Breeding Project

My favorite breeding project has been my decade long quest of making Romulan seeds available again to anyone across the globe. Over the years I have made hundreds of different crosses using Romulan as one of the parents, and from those creations I have released almost 50 different Romulan cross strains since 2019. Those seeds have been grown all over the world, and I have heard from so many people how it has helped to better their lives just like it helped me personally years ago, and still is to this day. Breeding with Romulan, almost exclusively for so long, has helped to not only teach me about the deeper complexities of breeding with Cannabis but it has also helped to shape my future projects and where I want to take people on this journey with me. It has been the most exciting and stressful project that I have ever set off on in my life. And now that I am finally on the final steps of that journey, I am very excited to put my new work out into the world. This July I am dropping the first cross of many that will not involve Romulan as a parent, or root genetic, in the strains. The testers who help grow these creations out before release have all been talking about how good everything is, and I am just super proud of this new era of my breeding and I cannot wait to hear from customers and growers after they have grown it themselves. But I will always look back on the Romulan breeding era as a time that taught me everything I know now, and it will always be my favorite because of how meaningful it became in the end.

Smoke Story

One of my first times ever smoking Cannabis, I had the opportunity to smoke some White Widow flower. This was days after it had first been released to the world at the Cannabis Cup in Amsterdam. The flower we held that day, as young teenagers, was unlike anything we had seen before. It was beautiful and literally mesmerizing to all of us. We just stared at it for nearly 20 minutes when we first pulled it out of the bag. There was an instant feeling of honor and privilege that came over me. I knew this flower I was holding in my hands had been painstakingly created over years, and then eventually grown to perfection after trial and error, only to go from a farm near Amsterdam to an event in the city there, until it was flown on a plane back to California where I lived and shortly afterwards was in the pocket of my best friend as we skateboarded back to my house with more enthusiasm than I had ever felt before that day. When we finally sat back and enjoyed the smoke, it hit me like an epiphany.. I had found my thing. This was it. Hours later, and after hallucinating a television that was not there even though I could change the channel and everything, I came back to reality. All I could think about was how remarkable this plant was. How special it made me feel.. and here I am over 30 years later still enamored by this gift from God.
