Old historical references re: strains

There have been other collections of this stuff on forums for years, but it usually gets scrambled over pages and pages and takes hours to sort through. I spent the last year scanning in my whole collection as well as some of Madjags - still working my way through his. I’ll be dropping stuff here for posterity. There’s a few people like Bodhi and Madjag I owe a thank you to for helping me compile this stuff - all done on their own dime and generosity with the intent it’s shared for the future. So this is my attempt at that.

First up are some of the rarest things in my collection re: strains.

The brotherhood of eternal love was said to have published these calendars as a way to document the seeds they were bringing in, what the bud looked like, and as a way to brand the bud. Brilliant marketting and I am
Missing a few years and have never seen them available.

I used to study these, I remember my buddies dad having some hid in the garage like like they were Playboys or something. My boy @BobbyO gave me a bunch of super old ones for my birthday one year. If you were buying seeds like me and dropping the money I was back in the day, these were like seed bibles!

I’m about to toss up the sensi and seedbank ones that are scanned in as well. I used to just memorize every seedbank (there were really only a few in the mid 2000s as y’all remember) - so it was a lot easier. All of those descriptions for strains that ended up being sooo inaccurate 😂 (generally speaking of course) Nev def nailed it as did a few others pre Spanish seed white labeling
 
Green Candy Press ( PLEASE, IF YOU ENJOY THESE GRAB A HARD COPY AND SUPPORT THEM, amazing amazing people! And they’re affordable)

Again, not always accurate, but it was a great snapshot of what was being sold and advertised during the late 2000s.

I’ll scan in the other ones, but for now here is


 
Here’s some pdfs of old strainbases I would collect and save over the years - some are very wildly inaccurate, but for historical purposes theyre presented here whole
