Haven’t grown it but I have a few bagseed of it from years ago. Wonder if they’d pop. It used to be pretty popular, especially around Montreal. Was always pretty cheap and had a nice lemon lime smell without the typical haze. Pretty good high too.
I’d like to see some hybrids with Freezeland. That stuff has been acclimatized outdoors in this area for decades and I think it is worth preserving and could probably make some good mold resistant strains. I don’t have any of the clones that float around here but I believe there are a few.
Nuken, Timewarp, Sweet Tooth. M39 isn’t from here originally but was super popular. Rockstar Kush and Death Bubba (already mentioned) are also pretty good but haven’t been around as long. Also some strain out east called R2(maybe NL2?).
Alot of good points @lefthandseeds and totally agree with the whole if your not willing to grow it 3-4+ times its probably not for you, and yeah on the 2 male offspring for pheno selection purposes, even going the feminized route, allow you to have that pheno path “A” or pheno path “B” to go down
Good smoke too, I scored some every year in Gatineau for over a decade. Sometimes the cureing left a little to be desired.
I’m not an outdoor grower myself but Freezeland is stable and would be a good candidate to work with.
From memory they were typically 4-5’. Finished mid to late September (I’m in the Toronto area).
The biggest issue we had in that area was soil depth - there wasn’t a ton before you hit bedrock (maybe 10”). So I’m sure with better soil you would get much bigger plants.
Mold resistance was fine - zero issue there.
If I remember correct it was a bit leafy - but most outdoor is.
There’s a dozen great project ideas that have been floated here. We need a sub-group (I don’t like the word committee) to do some preliminary research. I’ve been digging into Freezeland this morning. I’ll push that info out as soon as I tie up the loose ends.
I’m thinking we need to split this thread into 2 parts (to avoid clutter etc), something like planning and research and a ‘school’ for general education and working out how to do a pheno hunt with a distributed group.
OK, we have a whole lot of talent and we have a ‘metric fuck ton’ of of ideas and potential resources.
What we have here is the antithesis of “a failure to communicate” But what we need is a plan.
Here are my thoughts:
We need some basic organization.
We need a technical group. A body to figure out how a differentiated virtual group (there must be a better label)
can plan out large-scale operations broken up into bit sized pieces that the VG (virtual Group) can implement
develop basic sysop and procedures etc.
The School
This is a med term project.
We need to build an easily indexed data base of knowledge
We need ‘WikiWeed’!!
Copy that @Gpaw. Here is my role which is in addition to my NL5 pres run. I will take care of part 1 of 4. Nl5 pure ibl in bred using males. As a group we can collectively select breeding partners and advance the project accordingly.
Your thoughts are welcome.
Cheers
Well, I have been around long enough to recognize something special (positive) happening and nudge it along. It’s not my creation but I moved it in the right direction.
What do think it should be?
Roll a spliff - a big one… spark it and still your inner voice … then ask yourself what goals should we have?
Stoners are a different breed, we look after our community.
Well all we have is space and time, we would be glad to contribute both, Regionally grouping the offspring work may add to efficiency and larger sample groups, we’re in Cent. Ontario btw… We would like to see the goal as a stable seed for distribution but any canuck project for OG is fine.
