We are sad to announce the loss of a legend, Nevil Schoenmakers. Celebrated for his innovative work in breeding and genetics, Nevil was known as the original king of cannabis. In his career, he set the early groundwork of modern cannabis genetics and was responsible for some of the most popular and lauded strains in history.

We are working with Nevil’s family and friends on a larger feature to celebrate and highlight his life, achievements, and legacy. Stay tuned for updates.

Rest in peace, Nevil. You will be deeply missed.
