Well, Now They've Done It~ Full GMO Cannabis, and Damnable Open Door GMO Policies In Effect

This is really a huge deal.

When Starlink corn came out, and was supposed to be "controlled", the genetic aberration from it showed in wild corn in Mexico. More than 700 miles from the test plots.

GMO plants are truly Pandora's Box. Both for plants, and those who consume them.

Those Fucking Bastards!

Right? Fucking with the very thing that cures all manner of illnesses. It is NOT for the greater good. Genetic manipulation is insane. Evil in the highest realm!

Late night bump...Hoping some intelligent people that give a bit of care about what we do to destroy ourselves might take a look.

Bump to reply tomorrow since we grow landrace seeds from around the world. But I'm getting tired. To make it simple landrace (either sativa, indica or ruderalis) are hard to cross with anything. But that is not a chatter for tonight.

For the morning crew!

Looking forward to your thoughts, Lance...

Maybe it is different in the US, but most medpot in Canada is grown from clones taken off a mother plant. There is no viable way of spreading the GMO cannabis unless it is released via pure hemp growing. Even then, every decent grow room would be immune from pollen due to the fact that you really do need a proper HEPA filter in your grow room. This was issue in our Kootenays when they started growing industrial hemp. The outdoor growers got pissed off.

The indoor growers were already immune from pollen drift because of their filtration and any plant that may have gotten some pollen from clothing or hair or whatever, only would produce a few seeds which were trimmed out anyhow. I understand that in Cali and other places a lot is grown outdoors. It might be best to move those grows into semisterile greenhouses.

The nature of med pot is to not allow your female plants access to pollination. When we did more breeding, we kept our males that were selected very far away and hand harvested the pollen as the growers around me do still. The males are kept somewhere where the wind has no possibility of randomly blowing the pollen off.

So keeping that in mind. It is very hard for a GMO medical cannabis strain to spread, it's just not the way the industry work. In fact, strains are highly guarded, they are worth a lot of money. We were offered 100k for our 'Roberts Creek Congo' because it is actually a landrace, short flowering (9-13 weeks depending on what you are looking for) sativa bred for millenia by the pygmies of the Congo region for example.

We ended up just giving it away to people instead. It's a good plant and people are making crosses with it.

People get confused and think that hemp is not pot. It is, they are just different cultivars of the same species. Indica, sativa or ruderalis...ruderalis is only used in breeding because it is a northern plant and it auto-flowers really early. Which, if you are an indoor grower or simply a more northern grower is desirable. So I can't see how the introduction of GMO cannabis can really spread.

But then again, I know nothing about the Southern US and their growing styles. But most growers cull their males here pretty quickly if your crop is raised from seed. I do know a few new hemp farmers down SOuth and I'll see if they will chime in on this!
Cheerio!

i would love to get my hands on a few of your seeds

It would have to be cuttings. We are not actively breeding at present.

even better !!!
