Did you reserve any seed throughout the years? If so back cross it, Otherwise I would hunt a Northern Lights or Skunk #1 that fits your structure and has a similar taste profile to add back some of that vigor you are loosing. After doing all the work to lessen the hermie trait I would think you would want to preserve the line. You said the taste profile is skunk or fruit, can you elaborate a little more into the smells and flavors
Yes, actually have some from most every year. Tried to germ some from 2001 in 2017. Still has the bit of oil when crushed on a flat surface. Went funky before cracking. I have some in a jar in the freezer from 2011 and 2014. ill try again. Real problem is heating the space, We cant afford it anymore.
Maybe "teeth" out some groats and try them.
Is there a pure strain of ruderallis(sp?) it might be fun to do a cross like that.
As for actual taste and smell; i just dried it bone dry. compressed it into pint jars stick in the freezer for iso hash. quick wash...
Only as of late that im learning about squish and stiikygreens washing machine trick (we tried that last year works to good) ill be freezing alive from now on.
Got some beans from new420guy early skunk, they all cracked and forced but couldn't handle the heat in the GH and were ruined before I realized it. total loss. Sad snipping the two males. I converted a bedroom to a grow area (kids are grown and on their own) and last night 2 sour60 (new420guy) cracked and did the flip into the air. So many options/ways to go now its fascinating. Thanks J.James any other suggestions will be attempted.
