Although being one of the most internationally popular cannabis places, California breeders suffered from a stifling cop pressure, so they crossed the pond and settled in Holland – very tolerant legislation for them to keep researching, so, by the early 80s, Holland got full of American breeders with their corresponding American genetics (strong foothold in Dutch market – some of them became real cannabis legends).

In Europe

For example, Sensi Seeds was the first bank to market Big Budgenetics from California, originating the Critical strains; that original Big Bud genetics has some of the characteristics which gradually made its Critical offspring a real milestone – Big Bud was very productive, and it flowered in just 55-65 days (ideal properties for cash growers to totally monetize their grows): Big Bud was starting to gain ongoing supporters, becoming one of the most sold strains.

Right in the middle of the 90s, mythical Shantibaba breeder’s seed bank, Mr. Nice Seeds, released Critical Mass – kind of improved Big Bud strain; Mr. Nice’s strain had almost-traced properties, with stronger smell and aroma, and even faster flowering.

Later on, in the late 90s, a Spanish bank tightened the screws of Big Bud genetics – Dinafem Seeds, a bank of Bilbo (Basque Country), put the new Critical Bilbo on the market; this strain’s the result of a long hard Critical Mass selection for an even faster, more aromatic and more productive strain – Critical Bilbo has become internationally famous quickly, and it has won countless cups (such as Bio Cup category in High Life Barcelona ’14).
