“I started dabbling with growing in the early 90’s. I brought some seeds back from Amsterdam, bought a Phototron (LOL) and I was off to the races. At the time, getting information about growing was difficult and getting strains that were any good was just a matter of throwing darts at the board and hoping for the best.

By the late 90’s, I had discovered CannabisWorld and OverGrow sites on the Internet, cautiously venturing into these “taboo” sites to suck up much needed information on how to properly grow. It was a different climate (people were scared) and it was the first time that people with a passion for cannabis were able to meet other real heads from all over the world with a similar love. It was here that I discovered C-Bay (the best seed auction site EVER) and Heavens Stairway (the seed bank running c-bay) and started getting a steady supply of beans from mom and pop operations with a huge variety of strains with completely different lineages, highs, flavors, etc. It was truly HEAVEN.

By ’99 or ’00 I was really rocking it. Killer strains from seeds, MH and HPS 1000W lights, hydro and soil – what could be better? •
And then I discovered clones!
•
I was fortunate enough to acquire the “Katsu” cut of Bubba Kush in ’01 and promptly shared it with everyone on the forums. It was the best weed I had ever had – high, flavor, everything. I wasn’t trading it or selling it, I was giving it away because EVERYONE should enjoy it’s awesomeness, even if you live in bumfuck Idaho with shit laws and no neighbors.
•
So off it went. Everywhere. All over the US, Canada, even to Europe.

And then…then the REAL magic started to happen. I started getting cuts back – a favorite strain from the dude in bumfuck Idaho, the hot strain from NYC or San Diego, a hoarded cut from Kentucky… It was unbelievable. At one point, I was trying to manage over 40 elites.
•
Flash forward a couple of years later – personal circumstances change and I am unable to grow for a while. When I decide the time is right again, guess what – hookup city. In no time I’m off to the races with all of my favorite cuts from the past along with some more recent goodness.
•
I know people’s natural inclination is to “protect what’s theirs” but I’ve always felt like the more I gave, the more I got back. That said, feel free to breed with and share my genetics.
•
I would like to dedicate Katsu Seeds to all of the friends I’ve made over the last 20 years because of this special plant, and to all the friends I hope to make over the NEXT 20 years. All of my seeds are made from elite clones, heirloom cuts, and dank genetics from the last 25 years. I don’t follow any fads or chase any particular flavor. I like weed that does what it’s supposed to do and try to collect the very best of what is available.

Share the love, people.
Katsu Bluebird”
