Dying Breed Seeds

Dying Breed Seeds is a modern American cannabis seed company founded in 2018 by a collective of breeders and growers in Northern California. The company's name reflects its core mission: to preserve, protect, and proliferate rare, classic, and 'dying' cannabis genetics that are at risk of being lost in an era of commercialization and homogenization. They are particularly known for their work with heirloom landrace strains and classic American hybrids from the 1990s and early 2000s. Their breeding philosophy emphasizes **authentic expression, stability, and vigor**. They often employ open pollination and selective breeding techniques to maintain genetic diversity and the original terpene profiles of their source material. Notable contributions to the cannabis gene pool include their work with **'91 Chemdog, SFV OG Kush, and various Thai and Afghani landraces**. They have released several acclaimed lines such as the **'Project 4516'** (a preservation of early 90s NorCal genetics) and their **'Legacy Series'**. Dying Breed operates with a boutique, artisan approach, focusing on small-batch, hand-selected seeds. They are respected within the cultivation community for their transparency about sourcing and their dedication to genetic conservation.
