The Big Buddha has been writing articles for Weed world for several years, as well as providing pictures of the Cheese. In the meantime, during the last two years he has also had the opportunity to work on his genetics in the Meditarranean area.The Big Buddha first acquired a Cheese cutting back in early 2002 and started a little side work on crossing Cheese with an excellent true landrace Afghani male, that was given to him by an old friend who had spent time in the region. Selected female Afghanis were really big yielding plants, with really tight internodes, (as well as a rich, lovely deep fruity bouquet), the male had the same smell and had excellent tight branching. The first cross made was late in 2002. There were some varied results but through selection the best male was backcrossed with the original Cheese. Further to this, with a move to a more suitable location further backcrossing was carried out which helped to add to the hybrid vigour of the strain.Once some seeds had been produced and handed to colleagues in the industry who congratulated The Big Buddha on his work he began full commercial seed production, with an emphasis on testing viability, stability and germination rates of the seeds.

In the modern times of breeding, a combination of 2 of the best flavours around the cheese with diesel, we present the ‘C H I E S E L’

The male used was an NYC Diesel from the legendry Soma! The male added enough hybrid vigour and a distinctive hint of that grapefruit diesel taste to the ever popular cup winning Big Buddha Cheese. The taste concoction of old skool mixed with the new fuel hints, is a highly unique and a very memorable one. The C H I E S E L grows similar to its mother, a slender looking fast flowering Sativa with indica impressions.

The CHIESEL is truly a unification of two great varieties!
