2023 Pheno Hunt

Nestled within the rugged landscapes of Northern California, the Emerald Triangle—comprising Humboldt, Mendocino, and Trinity counties—has long stood as the pinnacle of cannabis cultivation, boasting a legacy that spans half a century. However, as pioneers in the industry, we at Humboldt Seed Company find ourselves at the forefront of a transformative shift. This year, we embarked on a unique journey from the iconic Emerald Triangle to the landscapes northwest of Sacramento, a region earning acclaim as the “Golden Triangle” or the “Emerald Dot.” Join us as we explore the dynamic intersection of tradition and innovation in the world of cannabis cultivation.

Our Seven Day Hunt

During our seven-day pheno hunt, we ventured from the Emerald Triangle to promising territories in Nevada County, Yuba County, Calaveras County, and beyond in search of the finest cannabis genetics. This scientific odyssey took us to farms cultivating our prized genetics, as well as new genetics, where we sifted through dozens, if not hundreds, of plants of the same cultivar, seeking the unicorns.
