The Seed Bank was founded from Neville Schoenmakers. He create some classics, based onto some Cultivators Choice Genetics and also on the old American cuttings (like Big Bud, Hash Plant or Northern Lights). In 1991 The Seed Bank was closed and Ben Dronkers founded the New Sensi Seed Bank out of this old genetics and his own Sensi Seed Club.

We have continued to breed and experiment with our revolutionary early-flowering Rudaralis hybrids. The advantage of a Ruderalis hybrid is that approximately 50% of the seedlings will begin flowering at the 5th internode, regardless of the photoperiod. The other 50% of the seedlings will behave similarly to the normal strain to which they have been hybridized.

For the outdoor grower looking for a very early crop, we have discovered that Ruderalis hybrids will finish in early July if planted outdoors in April. The buds of the early crop tend to be a bit leafy, but they are resinous, salable, and are done pre-CAMP.

For a normal season crop, we recommend that you plant Ruderalis hybrids around June 1. The plant will then produce a solid bud in the late summer-early fall, maturing about 4-6 weeks before the normal variety. This past year, one of the worst summers in memory in Holland, we still managed to have Ruderalis Indica hybrids planted June 1 that yielded upwards of 1 lb. each, while growing only 4 feet tall. This was without any pruning or trellising. Generally not recommended for indoor growing.
