Arthur Mix Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 (edited) No the collective started properly around 92 by that I mean seriously having squats as a base negotiated on a lease which was the farm. Before that they had done smaller gatherings then it snowballed quick. Lovelite did stuff pre exodus.

I believe that is the same article discussing Milo isn't it? At the very least, the info is badly worded there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Military Grade Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 Royal Queen Seeds WHERE DID CHEESE COME FROM? The original Cheese strain emerged in the 1980s under mysterious circumstances. Legend has it that California cultivator Sam “the Skunkman” moved to the Netherlands to get serious about growing. He brought with him the iconic strain of his creation, Skunk #1. This became popular among Dutch cultivators because of its quick turnaround time. A recurring problem, however, was that the smell from the plants was too strong; so strong it would be hard to avoid attracting unwanted attention. When one batch of Skunk seeds found its way to the UK in 1988, something peculiar happened. A cultivator in South East England found that the resulting plant had a distinctly cheesy stench. Noting the massive yields from this plant, they cloned it and saw its success spread throughout the UK. It proliferated at several festivals and alternative communities throughout the 1990s, becoming the strain of choice for those in the budding rave scene. Whatever happened to that batch of seeds, it resulted in creating a Cheese cannabis plant. The strength of its taste and its high led to increased demand. Today, it's pretty common throughout the UK and in any jurisdiction where cannabis is legal. All info seems to say the same. Disclaimer: everything I'm posting has nothing to do with the milo or big Buddha debate, just about the real Cheese. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back in the 1980’s a group of ravers and cannabis fans calling themselves The Exodus Collective discovered they had an exceptional individual plant when they grew out some Skunk #1 seeds. The Exodus Collective lived in a squatted Manor House just outside Luton where they were in the habit of growing plenty of weed. HAZ Manor as it was called was a hub for the free party scene along with an enthusiastic involvement in the campaign for the legalisation of pot. It was the Exodus Collective sound system, on the back of an ex-army Bedford truck, which led the legalisation marches through Brixton to Brockwell Park in South London in the early noughties. Word of this Exodus strain spread through the cannabis community reaching the ears, and lungs, of Milo, a talented grower and breeder from Birmingham. I won't post the rest of the article cause it's just arse licking Milo. Either way, I'll skip on that one as being a reliable source It'd be lovely to know the real history of cheese. The internet can't even agree on whether it was the exodus collective that grew it out or whether they were given it by someone else. Most seem to speculate that it was Sacred Seed stock that Sam worked further on his journey to RKS that eventually became the seeds that were grown out.

As I said my posts are purely about the origins not this milo/Buddha bloke, I don't care about that 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HazyHashMan Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 Not 100% on this but I believe when Milo changed the cheese seeds from regs to fems he had greenhouse help him to feminize them and in the process they became the people manufacturing the seeds can’t remember the source it’ll be years old. So I’m guess he lost his company back in like 2010 or at least lost control of a substantial amount of it. That’s my guess anyway but the thing about green house making the beans im certain is right 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
