Last time I looked they’d reduced it to 22% Most tokers don't have the instrumentation lying around to measure Delta-9 THC levels so companies just take a figure X's it by 2 subtract one and that's the level 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Two years old maybe three I had a project in mind for them Mind blowing how some genetics are gone forever if you had the original purple Maroc seeds you’d be sitting on a gold mine !!!! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have some packs of the original PM's and easy Sat's, but they must be 15 years old, the company went downhill when Francine left, the recipes changed, I still have an invite to their breeding facility in Portugal.

When the Canadian strains came around they were so much better suited to our climate. Also the earlier finishing avoided issues with bud rot etc. The Canadian auto flowering strains made it basically idiot proof. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I know a little about the seed game, I have seen it evolve, from back in the day when the mail would deliver cash envelopes of sometimes thousands of dollars a day from the states (and oddly enough Japan) to the modern instagram orders and cali wonder strains, I ordered my first Canadian strains 20'ish years ago from ME (The self proclaimed Prince of pot)from Vancouver, always had a soft spot for canuck beans.
