Dutch Passion was asked by AMSTEL BREWERIES to stop using the name for AMSTEL GOLD seeds. Now those seeds are to be called Passion #1, but I'm not using the switch name yet, its too confusing to explain name changes while genetic make-up remains same.” – Marc Emery
I believe Basic 5 was simply a name SSSC used in the place of NL#5 because, at that time, Northern Lights wasn't yet a "household name". This would mean that M39 = NL#5/SK#1 = ShivaSkunk. I grew M39 back in the late 80's and I have been growing ShivaSkunk during the past couple of years.Taking genetic variation into consideration, they seem to be the same plant...although my memories of M39 are of a slightly superior plant - it's probably just nostalgia. Sad story: When my ex-wife and I moved into our ex-house, I had a vial with a dozen M39 seeds stashed in a box of old books. She was cleaning the basement one day and found the seeds. She showed them to me and I acted like I didn't remember putting them there. She turned around and threw them in a pan of bacon frying on the stove. I don't miss HER at all - but I SURE wish I still had those SEEDS. I worked for SSSC for two years in the mid 80's. I never asked "Kees" exactly what Basic 5 was...though now I wish I did because I've lost touch with him over the years. I can't say for SURE if it's NL#5, but I had that impression.” - MrSoul
