In 1980 Mechoulam clearly shows that the CBD has medical effects, is urgent to apply this knowledge to patients that needs it.

CBD has medical effects / El CBD tiene efectos medicinales

Resume The medical part of the CBD is very well documented by the science. Raphael Mechoulan and another scientific discover in 1980 the medical use of CBD and explain that is totally non psychoactive cannabinoid. In this text they make reference to another studies much more older like O'Shaughnessy (1842), Shaw (1843) or Reynolds (1890). Bedrocam offer Bediol, a medicine that is powdered weed with a ratio of 1/1, finally a plant rich in CBD is registered like a medicine.

Hay un lado medicinal del CBD muy documentado por la ciencia. Al principio de la década de los 80 del siglo pasado, Raphael Mechoulam y otros científicos publican “Chronic Administration of Cannabidiol to Healthy Volunteers and Epileptic Patients”. En este estudio afirman que el CBD puede ayudar a pacientes epilépticos y que no tiene signos de toxicidad, ni contraindicaciones importantes. Este trabajo ya cita la aportación de otros precursores del siglo XIX, como O'Shaughnessy (1842), Shaw (1843) o Reynolds (1890). A estas alturas del siglo XXI ya se han acumulado decenas de estudios que tratan sobre los efectos medicinales del CBD.

Recientemente Bedrocan empezó a comercializar Bediol, medicamento basado en una marihuana con unos niveles CBD/THC de 8/6, cultivada libre de pesticidas y metales pesados. La presentación del producto final es picada, en paquetes de 5 gramos. La variedad Bediol, con ratio cercano al 1/1, ya está registrada como sustancia medicinal, tras pasar todos los correspondientes controles. Si no tienes acceso a Bediol, tu mismo puedes encontrar variedades con ratio 1/1 en algunos genotipos de cualquiera de las variedades que tratamos en este artículo.

Por supuesto queda mucho por investigar y avanzar, pero a estas alturas podemos decir que el CBD es medicinal. Siglos de estudios científicos lo avalan.

Champion strains

Resume

The medical strains does not born in a laboratory and you do not need to be ill to smoke them. The CBD has a more balanced effect and is good for the people that wants a more balanced effect, ideal for the moments when you do not want to loose your head, but also for the mature smoke that is ready for a new type of effect. In fact they was selected by expert growers like Jimi and Jaime and they have win in a lot of famous cups, including High Times Cannabis Cup, Cannabis Champions Cup, Catalunya Grows Cup, Alacannabis Cup, Cannabiscafe Cup, Garraf Cup or Girona Cup. Is clear that is a very recognised pedigree.

H. Madera (Soft Secrets)

Estas variedades no nacieron en un laboratorio, ni hace falta estar enfermo para consumirlas. Si conviene tener criterio propio y un paladar maduro, o al menos acercarse desprovistos de prejuicios tipo “esto no coloca”.

La mejor forma de apreciar las variedades altas en CBD es empezar fumando desde por la mañana, sin haber fumado antes una variedad rica en THC, luego seguir fumando CBD todo el día. Cuando haces una cata completa durante una jornada, te das cuenta de que es un efecto más sutil, pues también te pone ciego, pero con la cabeza más clara. Tampoco es un efecto de intensidad física o sedante, sino que te mantiene ágil de mente. Más equilibrado y adecuado para centrarte en la vida diaria que una variedad con solo THC.

Otro campo de posible aplicación son los usuarios que quieren hacer un consumo lúdico equilibrado, como el que se toma un par de vinos o cañas al salir del trabajo, pero no le gusta llegar a casa ciego.

Muchos de los que aseguran que la marihuana les da “mucho viaje” y prefieren el hachís comercial echan de menos el CBD, antes que seguir insistiendo con variedades ricas en THC que les sientan mal, deberían darle una oportunidad a estas variedades.

Insisto: aunque el CBD tiene grandes aplicaciones medicinales, no es necesario estar enfermo para disfrutarlo. En realidad fue seleccionado por dos cultivadores veteranos y con criterio propio, Jimi y Jaime. Desde su aparición, las plantas de la ola CBD han sido muy apreciadas por los catadores más expertos. Prácticamente todos los años han estado en el podio de los premios lúdicos más prestigiosos, como High Times Cannabis Cup, Cannabis Champions Cup, Copa Catalunya de Grows, Alacannabis, Copa de Cultivadores de la Asociación de Internautas del Cannabiscafe, Copa del Garraf o Copa de Girona. Jimi y Jaime hicieron su trabajo, lo hicieron bien y el esfuerzo ha sido reconocido. A estas alturas ya no hay nada que demostrar. Es un pedigree laureado. Se trata de campeonas por derecho.

Ringo's autum 2012 new strains

At the end of 2012 Ringo introduced his new Sour Tsunami's crosses, including CannaTsu (Cannatonic x Sour Tsunami), Harle Tsu (Harlequim x Sour Tsunami), also he was working with AC/DC and Swiss Gold.

For his interest I reproduce an article of O’Shaughnessy’s- The Journal of of Cannabis in Clinical Practice The articles say that AC/DC is a hemp plant of France, we suspect that is a phenotype of Cannatonic.

Article of O’Shaughnessy’s- The Journal of of Cannabis in Clinical Practice

We got an update from Lawrence Ringo of SoHum seeds, whose booth at the High Times event in L.A. last weekend featured seeds from three CBD-rich strains: his original Sour Tsunami, a Sour Tsunami-Harlequin cross (“Harle-Tsu”) and a Sour Tsunami-Cannatonic cross (“Canna-Tsu”). Back at the ranch, Ringo told us, he’s growing out two new strains — “Swiss Gold,” a clone of which he purchased at Organicann in Santa Rosa, and ACDC, which William Courtney, MD, gave him saying, “Grow billions of seeds. The world’s going to need them.” Courtney told Ringo that a lab had found ACDC to have a 22:1 CBD-to-THC ratio; and that it was a Sativa-dominant plant grown for hemp in France; and that it was being grown on 13 hectares in Luxembourg for use in a clinical trial of its juiced leaves and flowers. Ringo describes the Swiss Gold as “a pure Indica, short and fat.” He grew it out in a 20-gallon bucket to observe its traits. “Everything that I grow the first year goes into a bucket,” he explains, “because I don’t want to waste this primo ground that I’ve spent years building up.” It was tested by Pure Analytics and found to contain 8% CBD, 2% THC. His ACDC was only a foot tall as of Feb. 12. When it’s two feet he’ll take cuttings and speed up their budding so they can be tested while the mother plants continue to grow. At the High Times event in LA interest in CBD-rich herb was strong and foot traffic heavy, Ringo reported, but SoHum was directly across from a DJ box that was loud from 50 yards away. “A lot of people wanted to talk but couldn’t because we were getting pounded by the music,” Ringo lamented. “Five or six people were in wheelchairs and they never came back.” The booth cost $3,000 —$800 more than he’d ever paid for space at a trade show.

Report from Pure Analytics Samantha Miller of Pure Analytics tested the two sets of samples from Ringo’s recent crosses. Her comments follow:

Group 1 All samples received were freshly harvested cannabis seedling samples from three different populations of seed stock, Swiss Gold x Sour Tsunami, Cannatonic (2:1) x Sour Tsunami and Harlequin x Sour Tsunami. All samples were dried in the laboratory over the course of eight days. All dried samples were analyzed for cannabinoid potency and profile to determine THC vs.C BD dominance, approximate ratios and distribution of those ratios. The Swiss Gold x Sour Tsunami group of seedlings consisted of thirteen individual samples. Of those thirteen, six seedlings were found to be CBD-dominant, supporting the prediction that progeny from the cross would have a CBD-dominance frequency of 50%. Of the 6 CBD-dominant samples isolated, two were found to have a cannabinoid profile consisting of very high relative CBD levels with only a very small relative amount of THC. Both a female and male were isolated, #3 and C from this high relative CBD group. The remaining four CBD-dominant seedlings were all found to possess a 2:1 ratio of CBD:THC. The Cannatonic x Sour Tsunami seedlings consisted of a group of 8 individual samples. Five of these eight were found to be CBD-dominant, supporting the hypothesis that the progeny from the cross would have a CBD-dominance frequency of 50%, or one out of every two seeds. Of the five CBD-dominant seedlings, one was found to have a cannabinoid profile almost entirely CBD, with only a small relative amount of THC. The remaining four CBD-dominant samples were found to be 2:1 CBD:THC ratio seedlings. The Harlequin x Sour Tsunami seedlings consisted of a group of nine seedlings, where seven were found to be CBD-dominant. Of the seven CBD-dominant seedlings, three were found to have very high relative CBD-levels, and the remaining four seedlings were found to possess a 2:1 ratio of CBD:THC. This seed stock would represent a unique offering with 3 of every 4 seeds providing a CBD-dominant plant. Additional analysis of a larger sample population should be performed to validate this finding to support the potential claim of 75% CBD-dominance frequency.

Group 2

Seedling samples from two populations of seed stock, Harlequin x Sour Tsunami and Swiss Gold x Sour Tsunami, were analyzed for cannabinoid potency and profile to determine THC vs. CBD dominance, approximate ratios and distribution of those ratios. Three samples of Harlequin x Sour Tsunami were analyzed. Two of the three were found to be CBD-dominant and both of these were found to have a 2:1 CBD:THC ratio. Two samples of Swiss Gold x Sour Tsunami were analyzed and were found to be THC-dominant in both cases.

Lawrence Ringo's biography

Biography information of Lawrence Ringo that I take from Kingofcbdgenetics.com

Lawrence Ringo's Timeline

1956: Lawrence was born in Orange County, CA on October 21, 1956. 1971: Lawrence started growing and learning the traits of the plant early on as he started collecting pollen and making seed for the next year, thanks to a seasoned backyard grower. 1980: Lawrence started Light Deprivation by accident and was thankful for his new found knowledge. Light deprivation is when you cut the light back on a plant and fake it out so it thinks that it's time to flower and starts to, you have to cover the green house and block all sun light. 1982: Lawrence had light deprivation figured out, he used it for early sexing so he could plant females in early May insuring huge plants that finished earlier. Then using the left over plants for light dep he could insure fresh medicine for the summer. 1980-1989: Lawrence purchased 40 acres in Blocksburg to further his skills in growing/breeding. Lawrence established seed stock and worked with all the original land race strains from Mexico, Thailand, Afghanistan, etc and made all the F-1 crosses while acclimating them for ultimate growing traits that would insure highest THC results. 1989-1996: Lawrence found a job at “Seagate Technologies” and raised his 3 boys in Santa Cruz County. All while growing gorilla style in the Santa Cruz Mountains by Boulder Creek and in Scotts Valley. 1996-2001: Lawrence transferred with Seagate to their newly purchased company in Longmont Colorado to Build 540.000 sq ft R&D facility on 40 acres. 2002-2009: Lawrence moved back to Blocksburg, CA. With a few strains that some old friends gave him I Lawrence started breeding for the next season. While searching online he found Marc Emery’s Seed Company and obtained 8 strains over a 2 year period and developed 20 new strains. 2009-2010: Lawrence started the collective "Kush Seeds" to distribute seeds because the demand was high and he already had a loyal local following. Also Lawrence was tired of getting poor genetics by the other seed companies that sprung up after Marc Emery was taken down by the DEA. 2010: Lawrence closed down Kush Seeds and started Southern Humboldt Seed Collective. After watching the video "Run From The Cure", Lawrence made his first batch of Cannabis oil. 2010: Lawrence had his first tests done and found out that he had a strain high in CBD's. "Sour Tsunami" After realizing about the medical worth of Cannabidiol, he started focusing his breeding for CBDs. 2011-2014: Lawrence fine tuned his genetics and his collective by networking with some of the most knowledgeable and respected individuals in the cannabis industry. All while training his 3 boys how to sustainably grow and continue breeding the strains that he had been passionately breeding for many Years.

Lawrence Ringo founded SoHum Seeds and pioneered CBD genetics all while sustainably growing organic cannabis for over 35 years in Southern Humboldt, California. Music was Lawrence’s first love; his love for music was born through his grandmother Hazel who encouraged His fist solo performance at the young age of 7, while attending Margaret Harloe elementary school. Lawrence enjoyed writing music; manly rock and roll songs and even a few classical compositions. During the 80's Lawrence was known locally as the "Guitar Monster" and he played at Reggae on the River in 2006 with Jade Steel. His other love was cannabis. In 2010 he started Southern Humboldt Seed Collective and through testing found that he had high CBD in his genetics. "Sour Tsunami" was the beginning, then came Harle-Tsu, Canna-Tsu, Swiss-Tsu, and ACDC with some of these strains coming up all CBD dominant. Lawrence Ringo was well loved and respected in the cannabis community for his generosity and dedication to organic sustainable agriculture; working with HuMMAP, Tea House Collective, and the newest CBD collective Lost Coast Botanicals to provide CBD medicine and support small farmers.

History of Sour Tsunami

The history of Sour Tsunami was explained, for first time in O'Shaughnessy's- The Journal of of Cannabis in Clinical Practice, in the number of Autum 2011. Aditional notes by Fred Garner made April 5, 2014. For his historic interest I reproduce here that article and aditionl notes.

Fred Garner introduction

Lawrence Ringo died yesterday. Cancer. Cigarettes. Not yet 60. He was a tough guy in love with life, fulfilled by what his own life contained: plants and music, friends and family. I met him in the winter of 2008/09 through Samantha Miller of Pure Analytics lab, who’d heard we were on the lookout for CBD-rich plants. I interviewed him that day for the Anderson Valley Advertiser. Unlike most growers and plant breeders, who are understandably reticent when it comes to describing their work, Ringo was bold and forthright. He (and Samantha) gave Project CBD a great boost in those bygone days when we still felt it necessary to define cannabidiol for readers of the AVA.

Sour Tsunami Stabilized

For the first time, a California grower has "stabilized" a Cannabis strain high in Cannabidiol. Lawrence Ringo of the Southern Humboldt Seed Collective is now offering seeds of "Sour Tsunami" that have a one-in-four chance of containing 10-11% CBD (and 6-7% THC)! Ringo, 54, has been dealing with severe back pain since early adolescence. "I have no disk between my lower third and fourth," he told us. "It’s bone on bone. When I was 13 some kids thought it was funny to let me take the weight of this thing we were lifting up. I‘ve been dealing with the pain ever since. I’ve been to every doctor and chiropractor. No one can really help. There’s no way that I’m going to do any drugs, ever. I despise them. And I'm not going to do any back surgery. I'm going to rely on the strains I’ve developed over the years. When my back really hurts I do the the high-CBD kief. Two pipeloads and I can go out and do anything —ride a motorcycle, work in the garden."

Ringo started growing at 15. On his way to school one day he found a sapphire gold ring and a snub-nosed .38 and a film can of cocaine. He threw away the coke and returned the ring and the pistol to the local head of the Hell's Angels. "Come on in little brother," said the grateful biker. When asked what he wanted way of thanks, Lawrence pointed to a big Sativa plant he saw growing in the backyard and said, "I want to learn how to grow that!"

At age 19 he went to college Solano Community College and learned organic horticulture. He has been crossing plants of interest for many years, with the goal of creating a strain that would lessen his back pain without giving him "a clogged head." He says, "There are certain highs that you can operate on and some that you can't. You smoke three hits and you’re passed out. I don’t like that."

"I saved seeds whenever a plant gave me a creative feeling," he explains. "I bought 'New York City Diesel' seeds from Marc Emery. I liked it —great taste and no couch lock. I took the males from that and crossed them onto Sour Diesel female clones. I crossed the NYC Diesel and the Sour Diesel for about four years kept crossing it back to the Sour Diesel clone. Each year I’d save the male and do the dusting and make my seeds. One year a friend popped in with something that had a really nice creamy taste. I thought it was an Indica but it turned out to be 60% Sativa called Ferrari. I’ll never forget that creamy taste. I smoked it and my brain just took off. I’m a musician so I just grabbed a guitar and was going nuts for hours."

"It took me about a year to get that Ferrari clone. It was protected by the rednecks — the good old boys who used to be loggers and now they’re pot growers. They have this little clique going, the good old boys network. Very secretive and protective. They weren’t going to give it to us but we got it. I crossed my Sour Diesel —Double Diesel, I called it—to the Ferrari clone five years ago. Two years ago I re-crossed it back onto the Sour Diesel. Before I did that I had this thing called Tsunami. It was the Double Diesel crossed four times to the Sour Diesel then crossed to the Ferrari and then crossed back to the Sour Diesel. That made Sour Tsunami. It's unbelievable. The creamy taste was there. I had no idea what the CBD count was until Samantha Miller [of Pure Analytics] analyzed my stuff and said it was 11.3% CBD. 'And by the way,' she said, 'You have eight other strains with great CBD potential.'

“I have no disk between my lower third and fourth. It’s bone on bone. When I was 13 some kids thought it was funny to let me take the weight of this thing we were lifting up. I‘ve been dealing with the pain ever since. I’m 54 and I’ve been to every doctor and chiropractor. No one can really help. There’s no way that I’m going to do any drugs, ever. I despise them. And I’m not going to do any back surgery. I’m going to rely on the strains I’ve developed over the years. When my back really hurts I do the the high-CBD kief. Two pipeloads and I can go out and do anything —ride a motorcycle, work in the garden.” Interview Notes Lawrence Ringo 1/17 Nine strains with CBD. He saved seeds whenever a plant gave him a creative feeling. We were doing the Diesel. Not couch lock. Good taste. I bought “New York City Diesel” seeds from Marc Emery. Took the males from that and crossed them onto the sour diesel female clones. The next year I took the seeds from that and started buying clones again from Organicann and a dispensary in Ft Bragg. Purple Urkle and I would cross it with all kinds of stuff. The sour diesel crossed with the NYC Diesel and I did that for about four years kept crossing it back to the sour diesel clone. Each year I’d save the male and do the dusting and make my seeds. One year a friend popped in with something that had a really nice creamy taste. I thought it was an Indica but it turned out to be 60% Sativa called Ferrari. I’ll never forget that creamy taste. I smoked it and my brain just took off. I’m a musician so I just grabbed a guitar and was going nuts for hours. So I took that and it took me about a year to get that clone. It was protected by the rednecks —the good old boys who used to be loggers and now they’re pot growers. They have this little clique going, the good old boys network. Very secretive and protective. They weren’t going to give it to use but we got it. I crossed my sour diesel —double diesel I called it—to the Ferrari clone five years ago. Two years ago I recrossed it back onto the sour diesel. Before I did that I had this thing called Tsunami. It was the doubl diesel crossed four times to the sour diesel then corssed to the Ferrari and then crossed back to the sour diesel. That made sour Tsunami. Its unbelievable. The creamy taste was there. I had no diea what the CBD count was unti Smantha analyzed my stuff. 11.32 per ent CBD. And by the way, you have eight other strains with great CBD potntial. Ringo was breeding for back pain but I don’t want to have a clogged head. There are certain highs that you can operate on and some that you cant. You smoke three hits and you’re passed out. I don’t like that. I have no disk between my lower third and fourth. It’s bone on bone. When I was 13 we were doing stuff and the kids thought it was funny let let me take the weight of this thing we were lifting up and I ‘ve been dealing with it ever since. I’m 54 and I’ve been to every doctor and chiropractor. No one can really help them. There’s no way that I’m going to do any drugs, ever. I despise them. And I’m not going to do any back surgery. The strains I’ve developed over the years. When it really hurts I’m going to do the kief the high CBD kief. Two pipeloads and I can go out and do anything —ride a motorcycle, work in the garden… Granny D. I’ve been working on the granny diesel for eight years, also. I got my first taste of that real purple urkle and couldn’t believe the taste, the high was a little bit more than I like. I finally found someone who had clones of it. I took the NYC Diesel and crossed it to a purple haze and created a breed 10 years ago called purple diesel. I started crossing that onto the purple urkle. I’d get a clone every year for five year straight. Now my purple durkel or my granny derkel as I call her. Last year I crossed my purple durke which I’d purple diesel which I turned to Durkel sour diesel crossed all these diesel crossed with the durkels… Purple Haze crossed with NYC Diesel then crossed that onto the Urkle I liked it so much that first year and I wanted to get that F1 things and the only way to do that is to get a clone bring it back to th garden and save my males from my purple diesels –now it’s the durkel—and keep crossing that male back onto the urkle. That F1 thing… it’s gonna come out vibrant creamy freshest everything’s going to be the same. Almost every seed. You’ll only have two phenotypes but if you take the brother and sister and keep breeding them it takes 7 to 13 years to get yourself stabilized. We do deps now —light deprivation. I can do this two times a year now. I can pollinate and keep them straight and true. The F1 always comes out perfect. I keep all my pollen. I have pounds of it all tagged and IDed. What year what plant what strain. My goal? I have a seed collective. I’m trying to influence my friends form southern Humboldt – I’ve been up there since 1978. I’m trying to convince my friends to get rid of their old moldy seedstocks and get these land race strains back in order. I’m working on reintroducing Panama Red. I finally got the seeds. Big Sur Holy Weed. Started to grow at 15. Found a sapphire gold ring and a snub nosed 38 and a film can of cocaine. Returned it to the head of HA. Come on in little brother. Sees the big sativa in the yard. I want to learn how to grow that! Sonora college at age 19 learned how to grow, learned about organics from a really cool woman.

CBD Wave: first years (resume) / Ola CBD: primeros años (resumen)

Resume

Resume of the first years of the CBD Wave and some of the mains things. Jimi, breeder of Reggae Seeds starts the wave in 2004 with a New York City Diesel Male with CBD that uses to create Juanita la lagrimosa, Kalijah and more strains, in the second step he creates in 2006 Dancehall, Dub, Session and more strains. In 2008 he gives to Alex Soma 5000 Dub and 2000 Dancehall (still not payed). Alex gives to Jaime (Resin Seeds) and say him that was MK Ultra x G13 Haze, Jaime select Cannatonic and Freeman selects Dieseltonic and Dulce Canna, we believe the 3 plants are genotypes of Dancehall. Jaime gets a prize in High Times Cannabis Cup 2008 and make the analysis in Canna stand during Spannabis 2009 discovering the CBD Wave. In 2009 and 2010 Jaime makes the first CBD genetics marketing campaign. Jaime and Shantibaba create CBD Crew to offer a whole range of CBD genetics. Another banks make collaborations with this 3 pioners and appears more CBD genetics in banks like: Royal Queen Seeds, Dutch Passion, Paradise Seeds, Medical Seeds, Eva Seeds, Elite Seeds, Pepita Seeds or Philosopher Seeds. In 2011 Soft Secrets writes "Cannatonic y Juanita la verdadera historia", first and only time that Jimi and Jaime explains the truth about this genetics.

H. Madera (Soft Secrets)

Jimi, criador de Reggae Seeds, inicia la saga con la famosa Juanita la lagrimosa, a la que siguen otras como Dancehall, Session, Respect o Sra.Amparo. En Reggae Seeds hay una presencia masiva del CBD, por lo que este banco además de ser pionero, es también una gran referencia para el que busque distintas variedades con CBD para hacer su selección.

Jaime, criador de de Resin Seeds, es el primer banco español en ganar una copa High Times, en la edición del 2008, con Cannatonic, entonces descubre el alto contenido en CBD de la variedad, algo muy sorprendente en ese momento.

En el 2011 Cannatonic gana en High Times Cannabis Cup Detroit el premio a mayor contenido en CBD. En el 2013, durante la High Times Cannabis Cup de Ámsterdam, Cannatonic vuelve a ganar como la variedad con más cantidad de CBD. Ora variedad de Resin con contenido alto en CBD, Dieseltonic, también resulta premiada en la High Times Cannabis Cup de Ámsterdam 2013. Además de ser el único banco español con cuatro copas High Times, Resin es el primer banco que intenta una campaña internacional de marketing de una variedad con CBD, con anuncios en High Times, Soft Secrets España y el catalogo de variedades que Soft Secrets publica en toda Europa en 2010.

Jaime funda CBD Crew, junto a Shantibaba, de Mr Nice Seedbank. CBD Crew es un proyecto de crianza centrado en plantas con altos ratios de CBD. Tienen un catalogo muy amplio que incluye CBD MediHaze, CBD Mango Haze, CBD Shark, CBD Critical Mass, CBD Nordel, CBD Skunk Haze, CBD Yummy y CBD Sweet and Sour Widow.

En el 2011, la revista Soft Secrets España publica en primicia exclusiva la verdadera historia de las genéticas con CBD de donde sale la ola actual. Por primera y única vez Jaime y Jimi se reúnen para explicar toda la verdad sobre la gran ola de CBD que llega a tu growshop esta temporada 2014. Si quieres conocer la historia no te fíes de rumores, lee la versión directa de los creadores en Soft Secrets Spain número 3 del 2011.

Royal Queen Seeds es el primer gran banco internacional que ve el potencial de las variedades medicinales, crea una linea medicinal que publicita y vende masivamente en todo el mundo, con presencia en publicaciones y growshops de multitud de países. Las variedades de de Royal Queen Seeds se basan tanto en el trabajo de Jimi, como en el de Jaime. Por el lado de Reggae Seeds vienen Dance World, Royal Highness y Royal Medic, por el lado de la CBD Crew llegan Euphoria y Medical Mass. A esto Royal Queen Seeds añaden vender un aceite medicinal con CBD, para uso medicinal de los pacientes que solo necesitan CBD, aunque en la mayoría de los casos lo que se busca es un ratio determinado entre THC y CBD, no solo CBD.

Las genéticas de CBD Crew también están presentes en colaboraciones con otros grandes bancos, como por ejemplo CBD Skunk Haze de Dutch Passion, así como las variedades de Dinafem Critical Mass CBD y Shark Shock CBD. Otros bancos con proyectos junto a CBD Crew son Medical Seeds, Positronics, Paradise Seeds o Eva Seeds. Esta temporada 2014 es la primera en la que el público tendrá una gran cantidad de variedades con alto contenido en CBD a su disposición. Sin duda merece la pena probarlas, pues su efecto es muy diferente.

Lawrence Ringo, one of the greatest CBD Breeders, has passed away

Lawrence Ringo was a big developer of the CBD Wave. According to the information I have collected in internet he was a experienced breeder, with a long history of work in the genetics of his bank Sourthern Humboldt Seeds also know as Sohum Seeds, he was very center in the medical part of the cannabis due to the pain of a back injury that he received when he was a boy. 2010 he discover the high CBD in his Sour Tsunami and he starts his career as CBD breeder. 2011 he presents his first seeds of Sour Tsunami in regular format with a 25% of the females CBD rich 2012 he presents diferents crosses including Harle-Tsu (Harlequin x Sour Tsunami) and Canna-Tsu (Cannatonic 2:1 x Sour Tsunami) in his packets he says about Harle-Tsu "early test show that possibly 25% could be CBD rich" about Canna-Tsu "early test show that possibly 25% could be CBD rich" 2014. Lawrence Ringo pass away the 3 april by a cancer. According with the information I have collect he was very generous with his genetics and fight a lot to spread the information about CBD in all USA and also to spread the genetics. About his work in Southern Humboldt Seed Collective he says in his linkedin "For 40 years, I have been breeding and collecting seed strains from all over the world. I have come up with some of the most exotic strains that I have ever consumed.I haven't been all around the world- Just a farmer that has been involved in this business for the love of the plant only. I have always striven for the best seed for my own taste and robustness of the flowers.I have been growing my own since I was 15. So 5 years ago I developed Sour Tsunami and since then I have just been breeding CBDs back into the herb and making different ratios. Harle-Tsu, Canna-Tsu, Swiss-Tsu, Pineapple-Tsu, Sour CBD ext.all have different ratios and all are making excellent medicine. 3 of the cCBD strains are between .05% and .07% THC. almost legal to grow fields,Someday." About his work in Lost Coast Botanical Cooperative he says in his linkedin "Using all the high CBD Pheno's that I have created to breed high CBD seeds and to stabilize each strain using the old fashion way mixed with the scientific technology. It has been fun. working on different ratios as 1 to 1 2 to 1 And all the way to 24 TO 1. Having these strains and the ratios insure the best medicine we can provide.!" In Spain we have heard about his work and respect it. When Nico Escondido visits Jimi in his house told him in USA was only one CBD breeder and we always supposed he was referring to Ringo. When Jaime was in USA in 2011, he finds Lawrence Ringo with a stand of seeds with CBD in High Times Cannabis Cup San Francisco. When I make in 2011 the first article with Jimi and Jaime together I find the information about the Sour Tsunami and includes at the end of the article. So we almost does not know Ringo, but he was with us in some important moments

Jimi, Jaime and myself, wants to send our deepest love and support for all his family, friend and all the medical scene of USA that has loosed his biggest breeder.

Respect the pioneers! Respect the creators!

I don't believe in secrets when it comes to pedigrees.

Some people ask me "Hey H, why is so important for you the real genealogy of the CBD Wave?, at the end the important thing is that a person that needs it can buy seeds with CBD and grow them."

My main reason, thinking with the brain, is that I'm convinced that as much quality information is available, as much faster will be developed the medical plants scene. My main reason, thinking with the hearth, is that I feel that the history is knocking on my door and I have to open or I will regret all my life.

Also there is a ethic reason, recognise the creators, this is really well explained by Neville in Mr Nice Forum, so i will take his words

"I don't believe in secrets when it comes to pedigrees. How is anybody going to learn if they are fed lies. The test of a Master, is not how many students he has, but how many Masters he makes!" N.

"I'll start with an example. If I buy a Dog, say a Bullmastiff, I can get one with or without papers. I might buy two brothers one with and one without papers. The one with papers is registered with the Kennel Society. You will get a pedigree certifying its parentage and ancestry clearly stating who bred what. His name might be "Chef vom Frankental" If you breed with this dog, as is your right, because you paid for the dog and it's registered name, you get to call the offspring what you want, you get to say that Chef was a son of the famous "Ladyface vom Frankental" and generally ride on the coat tails of the Frankental stud. Why, because you paid for it and it was a Frankental dog. With the unregistered brother, you don't get these rights. If you bought seeds from The Seed Bank. Say NL5 x HzC. You know that this is a Hybrid made from the Haze Brothers male line and the Northern lights female line. You know this because I didn't change the name Haze or Northern Lights. These were the names given to me when I bought the seed. If you bought Early Pearl x Skunk#1, the same applies. As far as I'm concerned you can do whatever you want with these seeds, except change history. If you want to inbreed Nl5Hz and put F2 seeds on the market, why not you paid for them. You didn't by Chi P variabilis and call it NL5Hz, you paid full price. If are saying that you have bought Seed Bank seed and tell the truth about the ancestry and what you have done (F2), I don't have a problem with you. If you made a 4 way with the EPxSK1 and produce excellent hybrids well the same applies. You may in effect be doing advertising for me or you might get doing what people thought I should have done or people might think that the SK1 one was the biggest influence and chase that up in the future. It's all out there and people can draw there own conclusions. But if you say that you have developed these strains from your own collection, then you're a liar and a cheat."

The mysterious seeds with CBD brought by Roger

Till now I'm sure of these facts

-The first family of CBD genetics in the world was created by Jimi Reggae Seeds with a New York City Male selected in a packet on New York City Diesel that he buys to Soma personally

- Alex takes seeds from Jimi (still not payed) and sold to his partner in Resin Seeds Jaime. Alex left the bank. Jaime and Freeman selects Cannatonic, Dieseltonic aka Picantona and Dulce Canna, really important elite clones in the CBD Wave

-Probably both of 3 are genotypes of Dancehall = Juanita la lagrimosa x Kalijah = (Reina Madre x New York city Diesel male selected by Jimi) x (Blue Heaven x New York City Diesel Soma's elite clon)

- Main 3 voices that explains you this history: Jimi (Reggae Seeds), Jaime (Resin Seeds) and H. Madera (Soft Secrets) think that the CBD was introduced in the lines by the male of New York City Diesel of Soma Seeds selected by Jimi. Another possibilities has been extensive revised.

- New York City Diesel = Sour Diesel? genotype found in seeds brought by Roger x Afghani-Hawaiian male of Shantibaba

- Shantibaba confirmed me by email in 2011 that he gives the male to Soma. Also Shantibaba confirmed me that the Afghani-Hawaiian male does not pass CBD to his heritage. In that moment Shantibaba was developing the CBD Crew project, so he has tested all his elite clones male and female, including Afghani-Hawaiian male

- So the actual hypothesis is that CBD was in the seeds brought by Roger

- I do not know Roger, but I know the history is true because is 1) in internet or the book of Soma. 2) Arjan of Green House Seeds knows Roger and confirms to me 3) Also another grower of honour, very respected between the underground growers of Holland, confirms to me that the seeds was brought by Roger. This in journalist slang we say triangulation and then we are almost sure of that fact.

- Roger says to Soma that was Sour Diesel, Soma says that 5 were female, so the tradition supposed that was a self pollination of Sour Diesel. But we, the people of CBD Wave, do not believe in that, because then all USA has to be full of CBD many many years ago, because the Sour Diesel is a old elite clone. The misterious CBD male pollinate the Sour Diesel elite clon.

-Also a lot of expert says that even elite clon of NYC Diesel of Soma is not pure Diesel, so there was something more in those seeds, this was the misterious CBD male

- If the selfing of Sour Diesel create plants with CBD, then the feminized seeds of Sour Diesel has to offer the same effect. The Sour Diesel does not content or pass CBD and the same about the selfing of the clone.

- So the actual hypothesis is that CBD was in the Sour Diesel seeds brought by Roger because same mysterious male pollinate it.

- Roger when you make that present to Soma you make a big present to the world, good job!!
