Mandala Seeds in "Seed Bank Hall of Fame"

SKUNK (Breeder Diaries) Interview with Jasmin

The same is true in the world of cannabis seeds, where industrious breeders are always trying to create or improve upon the next big thing. To some companies this means simply tweaking an old favorite or worse, smacking a new label on someone else’s hard work.

But India and, in certain respects, also Nepal really opened up my eyes to the enormous breeding potential of landrace cannabis.   >> Read More

GRASS TIMES Interview with Mike

High Mike, since we are standing in this rather impressive greenhouse, surrounded by one thousand selected and seeded mother plants, would you like to tell us how everything began and developed up to this point?
