CSI Humboldt

CSI Humboldt is a California-based cannabis breeding project founded and operated by **Nspecta**, a legendary figure in the cannabis preservation and breeding community. The project is dedicated to **preserving and proliferating classic, heirloom, and landrace cannabis genetics**, with a particular focus on the iconic strains of the '70s, '80s, and '90s from Northern California's famed Emerald Triangle and beyond. Nspecta's philosophy is rooted in **genetic conservation and open pollination**. He is renowned for his extensive collection of rare, true-breeding parent stock, often acquired directly from the original breeders or sourced from long-preserved seed lines. CSI Humboldt does not typically engage in creating modern polyhybrids; instead, the work centers on **stabilizing and offering authentic S1 (selfed) and F1 (first filial) generations** of legendary clones like Chemdog, OG Kush, Trainwreck, and Bubba Kush, as well as preserving pure landraces. Key contributions include: * **The "Triangle" Series:** Authentic S1 reproductions of elite clones from the Humboldt/Trinity/Mendocino region. * **Landrace Preservation:** Offering pure, unhybridized genetics from regions like Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Thailand. * **Educational Advocacy:** Nspecta is a vocal proponent of open-source genetics and educating growers on population breeding and preservation techniques to prevent genetic erosion. The operation is characterized by a meticulous, small-batch, hands-on approach, earning a reputation for **genetic integrity, authenticity, and reliability** among preservationists and breeders seeking foundational stock.
