History of our strains

You may have heard about the elite clones or selected clones. Perhaps because you are lucky enough to grow one, or because they are plants that are known for their particular characteristics that have "made them famous" among the cannabis community. Certainly, as any grower knows, when cultivating cannabis seeds (in fact any plant) we are sometimes lucky enough to come across a plant that stands out from the rest, usually in terms of
production or flavour and aroma quality. If the plant is preserved, we can certainly be looking at a future elite clone!

We present here some of the elite clones used by our breeding team to develop some of our varieties. Several of the parents used in Philosopher Seeds are selections from our own or from collaborating growers in our environment. In other occasions, elite clones are used, plants well-known for their particular characteristics, mostly of high quality, which have already earned their place in the ever-changing cannabis world.

Philosopher seeds is proud to keep and share with its customers and friends its marijuana genetic collection since the 90's, something that would not have been possible without the task of the cannabis pioneers, who brought marijuana to our medicinal gardens. Our team was wondering about which would be the two most important genetics in the dutch scene, and concluded that these two genetics would probably be White Widow and AK-47

For this reason, in this post we will tell you a few things about one of our automatic cannabis strains, White Yoda Auto, an autoflowering hybrid of White Russian from Serious Seeds, that is the result of crossing these two renowned strains, producing a compact and robust hybrid, ready to harvest in 60 days. Serious Seeds, with Simon - creator of the famous AK-47 - leading the project, used a compact and fast-flowering White Widow as one of the parentals to create White Russian.

Philosopher seeds' breeding team keeps a wide cannabis genetic reserve, with a great number of varieties with different characteristics that we use in our breeding lines. After a thorough selection work, we can finally offer these marijuana strains in our seed catalog. In this case we introduce you Fraggle Skunk Auto , an autoflowering hybrid of great size and huge production. For this breeding line we have used a renowned parental, Super Skunk from Sensi Seeds (Skunk#1 x Afgani), which is a selection that our team made during the late 90's for its high yields and particular taste and aroma, reminiscent of acid strawberries and pretty unusual in Skunk strains.

Philosopher seeds has been created as a group of growers who share cannabis genetics and develop new ones, improving the botanical traits of some of the classic marijuana varieties as well as creating new hybrids of excellent quality.  In this post we will explain the origins of Cheesy Auto marijuana , how it was developed and which are its main features regarding its growing, psychoactivity and organoleptic characteristics.

We think that making a series of posts about the development of our marijuana strains is the best way for you to know everything about them; their development, the selection criteria and their main genetic characteristics. In this first post we will speak about our  aromatic cannabis strain Orange Candy. With these posts we want to deepen the created descriptions to improve and extend the information on these strains.
