Greetings! It's been a while!
Pollen News - I have good news and bad news on the pollen. First, the bad news - My Irie Select male did not produce much pollen, so I will not be offering high test Irie pollen this fall. Bummer! My apologies to all who have been waiting for this!
The good news is that my Balance II male was a prolific pollen producer! It had huge clusters of lovely flowers that put out clouds of pollen. I harvested, dried and screened lots of pollen, which I now am offering for sale. The Balance II male is from a line that tested 4.2% THC and 4.4% CBD. Dominant terpenes are myrcene, pinene, caryophyllene, linalool and limonene. The plants are extremely vigorous and have had no pest or disease issues. They express strong sativa traits, including red stems, long inter-nodal spacing and sweet, floral and spicy odors.

Flower Show - Now that you're in the mood for a flower show, here are some more pics of my lovely ladies:
The Class Clown flowers are showing very red pistils and heavy trichome sets.
Another Class Clown girl - very sweet and sticky!
A Legend lady, with yellowish pistils and loads of trichomes.
The Santa Sesh girls have dark red stems and are filling out quite nicely!
The Irie Select ladies are huge - 8 to 10 feet tall bushes. They are really stacking on the trichomes!
September Santa - During the month of September, when you order ANY of our landrace sativa seeds or pollen, you will receive a free pack of Santa Sesh seeds. Santa Sesh plants are lovely, with purple stems, reddish pistils, and oh so sativa. Extremely vigorous with high levels of cannabinoids and terpenes. Regular M/F seeds.
Bug Bonus - The most common insects that I have seen in my plots this year have been native ladybugs! I see them every time I work my plants. I have even seen couples mating on several occasions, and seen something that I've never seen before. With the male mounted on the female's back, they sit quietly for a while, then all of a sudden, they quiver and twitch. I have a short video, but I'm not able to post it, so the photo below is the best I can offer. Cheers!
