That's gotta be the most uncanny coincidence then... :)
I got a call from a really good friend asking if I could help his childhood buddy with some indica beans..
I told my friend's buddy that I would happily help him..
Gave him some bubba 98 and 3 different types of OG to help with sleeping and eating issues..
Well it turns out that this uncle is a Kapuna... He has all deals with all kinds of Hawaiian herbal remedies.
He's actually whipping up some medicine for my brother who suffers from nerve damage.. And he ends up really being one of the kindest people I've ever met...
I even agree to give him cuts from all my stuffs that i have going now..

So he whips out a bag and tells me he wants to return the favor.. and inside that bag are 4 small newspaper bindles that had been stored in the freezer..
He told me he had been holding onto these strains for about 15-20 years. We had met in town so at the time I didn't open them up or look closer until I got home...


I had never heard of 3 of these strains before, so I didn't even want to post here on the board before I ascertained that these strains even existed.. Also I am aware that certain strains have been kept by families and I don't want to start any family arguments :)
In fact... Im gonna replace some names with ******** until I can verify those names too..

1) Puna Death x Molokai ********
2) **********
3) ********** Widow
4) The last strain just had 2 initials.. and for the life of me I could not figure out what they stood for.... Until kaloconnection made his post on 2/26.....
Those initials are JD...... which I am now assuming is Johnny D's

At this point in time.... If I was someone else reading this.... I would call bullshit on ME!!!!!
But ironically enough... Surfdout came over on Monday (Feb 25) and I showed him these beans..
LOL He can certainly verify all this....

What a fucking trip!!!!!
nah, I believe you. and I'm sooo jealous! lol

sheckster's the real deal gang.

From everything you said, I'm thinking at least 90% chance what you have are Johnny D beans. It's the only well known local strain I can think of with those Initials and it was definitely kept by a hawaiian family. 10 years ago in Hilo, it was THE strain to have and make all your buddies jealous. The strain was really something special from what I remember, and a buddy of mine said he saw some of it recently and it's still going around if you are in the right circle.

The puna death was also highly regarded around the same time as the JD, so the fact that you were gifted both makes it sound even more legit.

Please let us know how they grow out, you could be sitting on some gold!

Back in the day, my friend from big island always used to talk about Johnny ds. He said he had the hook up too for grab seeds. He also is from Hilo. All he used to talk about was how good the bud was. Close friends used to call him half pint. If any of u big island boys know him, u know he ain't a bullshitter. That was maybe 15-20 years ago. Real good Braddah that now resides in Seattle. Lucky him;)

I have yet one last short season grow in progress before I get ready for long season. What do I have growing now:

1. Twisted Sisters
2. Lemon Diesel X Salvador(trainwreck X Purple snowman)
3. Colombian Gold X Urkle****will plant this strain for long season to***
4. Mendo Queen X Paki Chitral Kush
5. Cherry Pie X Joseph OG
6. Grape Stomper X Grape Stomper OG

My latest short season is just going into flower. So I won't bore you with these kine pictures. Once plants start looking nice pics will appear. Probably in two weeks or so?

preparing my soil summer grow too. Here is my lineup for the long season:

1. HP-13 F-2's
2. White Kush X Sour Diesel
3. Banana Kush OG X Joseph OG
4. Daybreaker( ChemD X OG
5. Bandana(707 Headband X Snowdawg) X So.CalDawg( ChemD X ChemD)
6. Super Sour Diesel Haze X Green Ribbon( TW X Afgoo X Green Crack)
7. Super Blue Dream X Inferno Haze
8. Grape Stomper X Grape Stomper OG

absolutely known of these are fucking "feminized fuck the industry up European seeds". I work exclusively with Cali, Colorado, and Hawaiian genetics that are regular seeds. 100% good for breeding projects too. If your new to the cannabis grow/garden thing, I highly suggest staying away from feminized seeds.

This one has some wierd three leaf set thing going on
IMG_1996[1].jpg

These are suppose to be "OG Widow" seeds :lol:

Actually I just yanked them after taking this souvenier picture for a good laugh. It's more like the "Compost Bin" strain.

brah, have you checked Health Food stores? Last time I looked just about all of them should carry it. Maybe someday we will meet. But unfortunately, all my meds go to Honolulu to a couple of old ladies who I caregive to. Both of them became handicapped when they used to much "Miracle Gro" in their medical garden. They both have "Parkinson Disease" now. Just one more reason why we need dispensaries here.

Would that be Molokai Frost ?

I wish...
The Molokai strain I got is one I've never heard of..
Until I get verification from someone else that they've heard of it, I tend to shy away from throwing around names..

Especially after I recently found out I was wrong about having Johnny D.. !!!
"Those initials are JD...... which I am now assuming is Johnny D's
"
It turns out the JD stands for Juanito x Death.. not Johnny D... so not so uncanny afterall :)
I guess I should have asked the person who gifted me before jumping out on a limb :p

So I have
Death X Molokai?
Juanito x Death
Aina'ka= Death x (Death x Molokai)
Aina'ka Widow

So apparently lots of Puna Death crosses... I was told it is a super rain resistant pheno of the Puna Budder,
thats why this family crossed it to these other strains..

When you buzz your head, keep all the hair and throw it around your area. After you go hunting, throwing all your stink clothes in your area. Last but not least collect your shi shi! And dump it everywhere around your plants. Good luck! I put chicken wire around my plants one year to protect it from boars.
