Gas says the BOH has the potential to be more potent vs the NL5/Hz.
I agree. All ( 10 BOH/10 NL5/Hz, were more potent vs the NL5/Hz, and also tasted much better. Our best NL5/Hz went 95 days, and could have gone longer.
1 BOH pheno we have is an NL5.
I took 4 HUGE Hits off of a 1/2-3/4 gram joint today, and was fried, eyes red and shit, for 5 hours. I hold all my hits as long as possible, and I cant take a huge hit, as Ive run 5 Marathons in my day with a 2 hours 38 minutes best ( 35 Years Ago ) but I still run 20- 40 miles a week, and lift weights.
But even for seasoned smokers, I promise you, you can get a real fry from all of the plants we grew. Some were considerably better than others, but all of them have been at lesast strong, and some produce e better than others. Right now, 1 buddy has 2 more phenos that at 30 days...... that are even more resinous vs the NL5 pheno we have when it went 65 days and the one I got completely blasted eyeballs from today, and right now, and anyone who knows what stoned looks like, would have known thats me, when I smoke this stuff.
My buddy pulled 2.5 lbs with 2 x 1000w Hortilux HPS, and 7 gallon Smart Pots, and this is with smaller plants, Production can probably do 1 gram a watt from the right plant of this strain.... NL%/HZ can also produce HUGE, but it just takes so long, and many of the plants Terpene Profile isn't nice, and is the main reason the cross it.
Originally when Nevil/Sensi Seeds had the NL5/Hz in the 90s it was eventually crossed it with Sk1 to add more flavor, and became Super Silver Haze, and also brought down the flowering time to 56-80 days.
If I were to use the NL5/Hz for breeding, Id use a Male NL5/Hz, and a Female.... Coastal Seeds Puck Yeah, or Dominion Seed Company Granny Skunk to add flavor, and an Indica Dominant strain
Puck Yeah is ... Heirloom IBL Pre Soviet Kandahar AKA REAL NL#1 x Clone Only Pacific Northwest Hashplant from 1989... AKA Skelly Cut.... Or Puck Cut. These plants are also literally loaded with resin, and taste like Pine, Fuel, and Hash... Skelly/Puck is said to be Thin Leaf Lebanese Hashplant x Broad Leaf Afghani
Nevil said the NL1 x Skelly... And the F2 Backcross MALE to Mom, which was known as the strain Hashplant, and Originally Available from Nevil The Seed Bank in the 80s, and then Sensi Seeds who still advertise it, but aren't the original genetics anymore. Long Gone... But Nevil/Sensi got these genes from USA anyway, and theyre still here.
As is the Original Super Sativa Seed Club Sk#1 from the 80s... Duke Diamond VA ( DOMINION SEED COMPANY )has the Real Stuff, and is in the Granny Skunk I recommended earlier. The Granny also has the SKELLY/PUCK HP cut.
The Granny is also wickedly POTENT, and is on par with the BOH, as is the Puck Yeah. BOH has many more phenos, so I cant really say the Granny is any more potent, and there are so many phenos to go through with the BOH.
Puck Yeah is Low Production vs BOH, or the Granny.
But for me, the best stuff I ever saw was a NL5/Hz x SK1/Skelly in the 90s that the Feds got. NL5/Hz was bred to 2 flavorful faster flowering strains. SSSC SK1, and Nevils Seed Bank Hash Plant. Male Sk1 x Skelly.
So ts possible the NL5/HZ with the Puck Yeah would make a killer cross, if 1 gets lucky, and finds a really good male. Its really harder to find a good male than it is the female. At least we can see, and smoke the female. Other methods have to be used for finding a good male.
