Continue the Legacy: Hardy Nieto's Mark on Cannabis Breeding
Mourning the loss of one of our own, this episode of the Cannabis Breeders Network features an archived conversation with Hardy Nieto, founder of Cora Genetics. Hardy spent his life dedicated to the cannabis plant. He traveled the world collecting seeds and breeding; he developed a vast collection of both genetics and stories. You'll hear some of those stories on this podcast that I produced for Cannabis Breeders Network.
You can also listen to a conversation I had with Hardy in November 2022 on Potcast 236: Cannabis Breeding and Seed Selection. You'll hear stories of cultivar hunting around the world, preserving genetics, and the art of choosing the best seeds for your medicine and your terroir from a pioneer in cannabis breeding. Hardy shares things to consider before buying seeds online and his work to develop resilient and drought-resistant cannabis plants.
Our love, thoughts, and prayers go out to Hardy's wife. All sales of Cora Genetics' seeds go to her. Shop online at alpineseedgroup.com/cora-genetics.
As we reflect on Hardy's legacy, we know he would value receiving your feedback on his cultivars and knowing the genetics are being of good use. If you fondly remember Hardy or any experience with his genetics, please share! Email [email protected].
