Gday Mate.Hi everyone new here and hope to make some friends. Get some knowledge, and enjoy the talk about strains. Hope everyone is doing well and staying blessed!
Yes I am talking about catpiss. I've purchased from a bunch of different breeders and still have not found what I am looking for, and when I say a lot of different breeders I mean pretty much everyone who's claimed to have it, but it's just not it and I would say it's more sweet or piney then ammonia! I bought from akbeanbrain, 707, old school genetics, Sdge who was the originator of the Sam diego catpiss, also others. I still have not had the luck so wanted to see if anyone new anbout Neville's strain. I have and found a forum chat about it on here. They were saying that the old stock of nl5 x haze and inbreeding back to the haze brings out that ammonia smell, but I believe that Neville did not like that characteristic so bred for another characteristic that he liked more so I'm thinking there will be little chance of finding in his packs now. I would prob need old stock of seeds to find what I'm looking for, and just wanted to see if anyone can help me out. Sorry for the book I just wrote but I've just searched for so long with no luck!!Welcome @Dgcloud!
By ammonia I presume that you mean catpiss?
Don't have first hand experience but try the search function, I'm pretty sure that I have seen people report this here.
Allegedly, Super Silver Haze.Thanks @Uncle Jack. Well I was wondering do you know which pack of seeds would carry the ammonia trait in the herb. I asked but still have not recieved a reply. Been on the search of this trait ever since I first tasted it 25 years ago and still have not found anything close to that old school smell. Would appreciate if you can point me to the right pack if there is one.
The area for improvement was not the NL5xHz mother, SB already has cuttings of the best ever produced. The improvement would be in the SKxHz father. Later Skunk versions that were crossed with the Haze were far superior to the Skunk Hazes of the '80s.
As I have said before, inbreeding Haze especially to the same Haze ancestor leads to a greater incidence of the cat piss pheno. The Diesel or fuel like smells are an intermediate stage. NH also has more fuel type offspring than the 5Hz, but not as many as a plant inbred to HzC. NL5HzA had darker flavours than NL5HzC, but I wouldn't call it diesel.
N.
JH, SSH, Diesel and Sage were IMO all the same cutting, the ones that won the Cups. Seeds produced from these plants are often sold under the same name. I can tell you that you wouldn't want the batch that the NL5HzC x SkHzC came from. It was a "one off" in a batch full of skinny cat piss. Even 5CskC1 (new abbreviation) had a Diesel/Piss smell, and if it wasn't so quick and resinous (thank God for NL5) and so god awful strong, it wouldn't have been looked at. (I hope I'm not hurting anyone's feelings here)
In a draw full of NH and NL5C1 and NL5C122, it wouldn't get smoked at all. There are ways to improve it and experimental batches were made...
We have all been down that road of time and money and that is why most of us are here.…I was thinking of picking the ssh and Neville haze to cross and start my hunt. I just don't want to waste anymore time and money….
And dear braddah @Ken Abbis beat me to the suggestion about Mango Haze. The perfect smoke when friends are around. You might even find that you had more friends than you thought after offering this up BTW, I am smoking some MH IBL as I write this...As a hobbiest I just wanna find a good happy smoke for these long days. I'll keep hunting and will share. Herb is meant to be shared. Who likes smoking alone!!! It's like dinner time no one likes to eat alone. I just wanna smoke a good joint with close friends and talk about anything and everything.
a single male you have select is better with the trait(s) you desire (exemple pisscat odor) after if you use all in open pollenisation you will have a very large different kind of phenotypesHey again everyone. So when I f2 the mango haze or the ssh. Should I do an open pollination, or single male? Also should I keep the pollen from the f1 males/or male to pollinate again to the f2 & f3s to find that ammonia and making it more stronger In ammonia smell or taste?
