The Genesis of Soma's Cannabis Journey

It was 1967, amidst the bustling streets of NYC, when a young man named Soma, working at IBM, had his life transformed. An unexpected encounter with a colleague introduced him to the world of marijuana. As he lit up his first joint by the East River, the serenity and calm it brought changed his life forever. This marked the beginning of a lifelong bond with cannabis.

From Corporate Ladder to Cannabis Cultivation

Despite being on a promising corporate path at IBM, Soma's newfound love for cannabis and the counterculture of the 60s led him to embrace a different lifestyle. His transformation was evident - from his attire to his ideologies. Soon, he bid farewell to the corporate world, embracing the vibrant hippie culture of the era.

His journey took him from the iconic Haight-Ashbury area in San Francisco to launching a natural food bakery in Vermont named Salt of The Earth. It was here, in the serene surroundings of Vermont, that Soma began his cultivation journey. Tossing cannabis seeds out of his window, he stumbled upon the joy of nurturing these plants, although the cold Vermont climate posed challenges.

Trials, Triumphs, and the Birth of Soma Seedbank

Moving to the warmer climate of Gainesville, Florida, Soma experienced the joy of a full cannabis harvest. However, the journey wasn't without its challenges. A police bust in the 1980s was a stark reminder of the risks involved. Yet, Soma's passion remained undeterred. The late eighties saw him pioneering indoor cultivation, experimenting with unique genetics, and producing strains that are revered even today.

His expertise wasn't limited to cultivation alone. Soma's pen, under the pseudonym 'Amos Washington', graced the pages of High Times magazine. His journey then took him to Amsterdam, a haven for cannabis enthusiasts. Here, with the support of his partner Donamaria, he delved deeper into cannabis genetics, always in search of better medicinal strains.

Soma Sacred Seeds: A Legacy in the Cannabis World

Recognition soon followed. Soma's strains began winning accolades at the Cannabis Cup, and the Soma Seedbank was born in 2001. His contributions to the cannabis community expanded as he wrote for multiple magazines, sharing his knowledge and passion. The creation of strains like G-13/Haze further solidified his reputation.

For Soma, cannabis is more than just a plant; it's a sacrament, a medicine, and a way of life. Contrary to the stereotype of the laid-back stoner, Soma's life is a testament to the positive impact of cannabis. His journey with Soma Sacred Seeds continues, and the world watches with bated breath for the next chapter in this extraordinary tale.
