The shop sells some of the world\u2019s best flower, including current seeds of Dosi and some Dosi crosses. Simply amazing.<\/p>\n<p>We just picked up some DosiTree (Dosidos x <a href=\"https:\/\/www.leafly.com\/strains\/lemon-tree\">Lemon Tree<\/a>) seeds for $100. There\u2019s a&nbsp;Dosidos F2 clone selected by the breeder himself for $30. The feeling? Imagine going to a Tesla showroom, buying AutoCAD files for a Tesla Model 2, and 3D printing one yourself. It\u2019s thrilling to have state-of-art, world-class cannabis genetics right in your garden, as well as the ability to reproduce or just run selected cuttings for connoisseur quality home grown.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI love that you can buy direct from him and get great pricing. I popped a ton of Dosi hybrids,\u201d said Lidie.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized is-style-rounded\"><img alt=\"Dosidos weed strain up close, showcasing tightly packed resin glands rich with THC\" class=\"wp-image-187135 has-ll lazyload\" width=\"960\" height=\"640\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/thcinct.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/the-leafly-strain-of-the-year-2021-is-dosidos-9.jpg,compress&amp;w=550 550w, https:\/\/thcinct.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/the-leafly-strain-of-the-year-2021-is-dosidos-9.jpg,compress&amp;w=740 740w, https:\/\/thcinct.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/the-leafly-strain-of-the-year-2021-is-dosidos-9.jpg,compress&amp;w=1100 1100w, https:\/\/thcinct.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/the-leafly-strain-of-the-year-2021-is-dosidos-9.jpg,compress&amp;w=1480 1480w\"><figcaption>Dosidos up close: Tightly packed resin glands rich with THC.
