Things are looking good.
Everything is well into flower. At the 11 second mark you’ll see the Honey Glaze. She’s busting out all over.
Last plant in the video is the El Dorado. She’s well over 9ft tall.

We’re currently rounding up the last of the clone-gathering phase of our 2026 phenohunts. This year, we are strictly focused on narrowing in on tried-and-true, field-worthy cannabis genetics that are already at upper-tier filial generations (F3-F5). The ultimate goal? Working these lines down to true-breeding, fully stabilized Inbred Lines (IBL).
We’ve proven time and time again that these stabilized IBLs are the absolute workhorses of our cannabis breeding program. And honestly, there is no better place to hunt for winning, stress-resistant phenotypes than a massive outdoor field in the Midwest. Out here, every insect, pathogen, pest, and bad weather event is actively trying to take the crop down. If a plant thrives in this environment, it's bulletproof.
In the Field: The Hindsight F2
(Pictured is the Hindsight F2 that we are currently hunting to make F3s)
Hunting Hindsight at this scale has been incredible. We’ve observed three distinct genetic patterns in this F2 generation:
• A green stem phenotype.
• A purple stem phenotype.
• A variegation pattern appearing on about 6% of the plants.
Interestingly, all of the variegated plants appear on the green phenos. At this point, we are leaning heavily toward the purple-stemmed pheno as the overall winner. However, we still collected about 30% of our clones from the green phenos—just in case the final product turns out to be superior in the dry room or the wash.
So far, the Hindsight F2 has proven to be an exceptionally field-worthy variety. It is a massive biomass producer, and structurally, the stalks are sturdy enough to hold up heavy colas without the need for a trellis net. That is a massive win for commercial outdoor farmers.
Why We Hunt at Scale:
Hunting in these massive outdoor fields enables us to make numerical, data-driven observations that are literally impossible in small indoor pheno hunts. The sheer scale allows us to spot rare genetic anomalies and hunt down those true "unicorn" plants that check every single box for vigor, yield, and terpene profile.
It’s a massive undertaking. It involves visually observing thousands of plants, taking clones from hundreds of them, and then brutally refining those down to a small handful of elite keepers.
Because it takes 8 to 12 months to get the final results on these selections, our breeding projects only move forward every other year. We operate on a strict schedule of even-year projects and odd-year projects. Every once in a while, we find a phenotype so undeniably special that we “fast-track” it into an annual project, but the rigorous standard remains the same.
To the outdoor farmers putting in the sweat right now—hope your canopies are holding strong. We'll be dropping more updates from the field soon.
Almost at 3 months growth. Getting good flower sites on all of them, but the Honey Glaze, being an early finisher is exploding.
this is last summers train wreck, it faired very well with all the heat and humidity we had highly recommend. tough girl and prolific. not quite a pound after harvest.
Nice metal and relaxed high.
Grown in organic soil on my roof in brooklyn NY. Tough climate w/ a lot of storms and humidity, but this strain did fantastic
A rare look into our new facility with a glimpse into our process with Adam and Aaron!

We solely grow Twenty20. We have a great relationship with the breeders and do R&D for them as well, helping to find what grows well in our area. We don't use trellising so try to have sturdy outdoor plants that are mold, mildew, fungal resistant. Right now we have close to 17,000 plants on a 12 acre plot. My favorites have been MMXX, Breakfast in Bed(high yields and quality!!), any of the strawberry varieties, Afghani and definitely we like as an early the Honeyglaze. This year they named a strain after our farm PineRose and so far in the field they look consistent and fantastic. We have 17 strains and some I'm excited to see finish are Summer Lemons, Glue Sniffer(love the structure!!) ApplesnAfghani, Hindu Flurry, and Bubbahind because I love the clear high from Bubbawhip. And the new early strains are huge and already fully budding. Dirty Blonde, Honey Banana, Deathstar. I'll post more as they start to ripen!
Let’s hear it! 👂🏼 👇

Federal policy shifts and big corporate interests are threatening the foundation of cannabis: seeds.
The federal hemp ban isn't just about regulating cannabinoids—it's creating a gray area that threatens genetic diversity, independent breeders, and your right to cultivate this plant. In this video, we expose the downstream consequences of these sweeping restrictions and share why Twenty20 and a massive coalition of seed breeders are fighting back on the frontlines in D.C.
Seeds are biological time capsules, not corporate property. They hold decades of selection, history, and community effort. While Washington tries to package nature into IP and trademarks, independent breeders, pioneers, and outlaws are standing together to keep genetics open, accessible, and decentralized.
We see this as a hurdle, not a roadblock. The fight isn't over, and together, we remain rooted.
Stay rooted. Stay resilient. And keep growing.

A-Team R&D she smells like cherry candy. Can’t wait to harvest this one.
Another banger from the best breeders around
A-Team R&D plant 1. This girl has very large purple frosted nugs. Very dense. Funky and sweet smelling.
Have 3,, one is a little gas w sweet and other 2 smelling like candy
Almost all the plants are taller than I am at this point.
Seeing a lot of them with the beginning stages of flower. Some have more than others, and then, there’s the Honey Glaze and she’s just bursting out all over.
3 stage hunt. Won't reveal just yet...
Named after the famed highway in Humboldt County, this is a union of three cultivars from three different Emerald Triangle breeders. Championship Pedigree. Out of this world terps!
