    Jack personally: Friend brought seed from Afghanistan to Vermont in ‘75. Whole area smelled like skunks everywhere l. Gave Many seeds away. I grew for it original landrace; widest leaf’s I have ever seen. Some still doing it since then, keeping strain excellent.

      Some of those are actually still around. Ace Seeds works with a lot of old school landrace genetics, especially tropical sativas. They haven't had any Central or South American lines for a few years, but they've definitely carried them in the past. All worked to increase how frequently quality phenos show up. Lambs bread seeds are still available if you look carefully. And there are at least 4 road kill skunk lines still making the rounds, full of onion and straight skunk piss funk.
      You'll have to avoid all the seed vendors selling goofy corporate hype or relabeled Spanish junk, but those just good ideas regardless IMO.

    I am SO glad for all the amazing work you did to share this treasure with us! I hope Oregon helps the entire USA see that legalization is a good thing, and Congress finally decriminalizes weed, so that other countries can also decriminalize and we can all have a legitimate worldwide trade, and people in far away places can earn a living doing something positive.
