I'm sorry to break the news to everyone, but the original Cheese mother plant has been dead for quite a few months now. You won't find any sort of Cheese around Amsterdam now save for the Big Buddha Cheese (Which is well deserving of the Cheese name) and of course the Blue Cheese (Occasionally). These things happen people, but bigger and better strains are always being bred, fear not.
That is correct. Homegrown Fantasy used to have the famous cheese a couple of years back. I was told that the mother plant had died too. Yes it was nice. But nothing to wet your pants over.
Why is there such a fuss about it anyway?
The Blue Cheese is very nice from Bluebird. Really pungent

Yes it did smell different and it did get me quite baked but don't expect too much from it. There wasn't many crystals on it and it wasn't as good as I was expecting. Dam is like that though, you should never expect any weed to completly knock you out.
Having said that I am thinking of going back week after next and will be trying the stuff again, you know, just to make sure

wait. hold up. why does it matter if the "original" mother plant is dead? "UK Cheese" is one of the most widely-passed around cuts over the past few years. Cuts have even made it to the US and probably beyond. All of those cuts have the same genetic profile and pheno/geno type as the original mother did (hence "clones") and, if kept as mother plants, can themselves serve as new mothers for countless new clones.
Unless it can be said that all clones taken from this mother have died/been harvested/or were not kept as veg mother plants then the Cheese genetics are surely well-kept. In fact, I am sure there are hundreds if not thousands of growers using this cut and keeping the genetics alive. The fact that the original plant died (which I would have thought would have happened a long time ago as Cheese comes from a 1989 Sensi Skunk #1 pack) is irrelevant. The original OG Kush, Chemdawg, ECSD plants, etc., are probably long gone but the genetics are still there in the clones and are being shared as we speak.

It’s hard to argue against the point that a clone has the same genetics as the mother plant, so I guess the answer, as you speculate, must be fund elsewhere. You mention Kush as an example, the guys/girls at the CC told me that the “original” kush is NOT available, and that everything sold as Kush/Master Kush etc. is at least one generation removed from the original. (This does not include the fabulous and quite unsung Hindu Kush from ‘t Nes, simply a spectacular smoke!!!). I think I discussed this with Dave too, but that part of the night was quite hazy, being pretty late, and post a good portion of Daves mystery (not quite mysterious, but let’s keep the “theme” going on those
) and considerable amount of our own pretty punch-ya-in-da-face J’s, not counting the marathon sessions earlier in the day

but what i head is that the mother plant for homegrown fantasys crop died, meaning they could no longer take cuts and flower. meaning they would have to source a cutting from somewhere else, the uk?
