Flowers by Fidels strain legacy—from its humble beginnings in hydroponic shops to becoming one of the most respected names in cannabis genetics and hash hole culture. 🌱🔥
🌱 The Origin of Flowers by Fidels
Fidel Hydro (Shawn Damirdjian) began his journey in 2010 as a bagboy at his brother’s hydroponic store, SCB Hydro in Los Angeles. Obsessed with cultivation, Fidel absorbed everything about growing cannabis and eventually helped scale the business into Commercial Grow Supply, a 26,000 sq ft warehouse dubbed the “Costco of Hydroponics”.
This hands-on experience gave Fidel the foundation to launch Flowers by Fidels, a brand built on:
- Clean growing practices
- Terpene-rich genetics
- Consistency and quality
- A deep respect for the plant and its culture
🌸 Signature Strains & Cultivation Philosophy
Fidel’s approach to breeding focuses on maximizing terpene expression and phenotype uniqueness. His strains are known for their flavor, potency, and synergy with hash rosin—perfect for hash holes.
