Landrace Expansion & Trade

The same goes for the Blue Chocolate and Madonna F1. These seeds are close to a decade old, the Madonna F1 may be a little older, but they’re worth a reproduction project.

Think blueberry muffins and dark chocolate or sweet grape and berry… sounds good?

I picked up a pack from Doc D of Santa Marta Colombian Gold x Lemon Thai f3. Can’t wait till I get time and space to run them.

I had planned on trying to make seeds the first time I ran mine. I’m not fully sure if I’m quite ready yet.

I have the f2 also and a couple of the seeds Santero sent him to make the f2, I think; LT IX.

Yep just looked. 5 - f2 and 2 of Santeros LT IX.

Maybe I could start them soon and begin flowering inside and finish outside in September-October.

Why not both? They both sound great! Purple mango Thai and Moroccan mango! Damn.

Not sure the Beldia will be ready, how long is pollen viable? Checked the mango out on strainly should be a hit with both. See how the two beldia sex out.

Have you tried either of these? This is real oaxacan? Real acapulco?

I’ve tried the Acapulco. It’s the real deal. I acquired some myself back when he dropped them, and then was gifted some reproductions as well. Both of those are on my list of things to reproduce for here some day… but if you really want to run some sooner, I can send you some of the ones that were reproduced.

Lebanese

This is more like Lefthand’s remedial school. I’m trying to hold back some of the big kids until the little ones catch up. I had to expel half a dozen kids from the class already.

I haven’t been able to germinate any of my Leb27’s, save one. It’s not really growing either. The two that opened after the DMSO method have not yet shown signs of life from the rooting cubes.

Then I also didn’t get all of my RSC Lebanese to germinate, and one was a mutant… and if that wasn’t enough, one of my black/blue Lebanese was also a mutant. To top it off, one of the RSCs also has a bit of a duck-web thing going on (front left). So this has been a real freakshow so far! This is how landraces go folks! Gotta be ready to make a bunch of seeds so you can filter out a lot of shit.

So now I just need these other little ones to toss a few more leaves and then the expansion begins!

Yes sir! Both of those strains are the real deal!
Those are still rare seeds.

There can be a lot of mutant phenos from raw landrace genetics. It really is amazing what phenos may be found in a handful of landrace seeds.

It’s such a freak show sometimes, but there’s a certain realness to it as well that’s so attractive. It’s like experiencing the different ways the plant has coexisted with and benefited from different cultures, and all the extreme expressions that result from that.

In many ways, you could consider the western polyhybrid to be it’s own landrace. Localization has occurred in only a slightly different way, but it still has happened. A vast subset of the total global cannabis genetics has been circulated, refined and mixed, and well protected from outside pollen. When you grow a landrace, you get something other than the 21st century western cannabis experience. Whether it’s an experience of how a different culture uses it, or to see the very logical and dynamic evolutionary expressions of cannabis. You can’t buy that at any dispensary I’ve been to.

12 seeds - full pack - untouched - as in I haven’t grown them out though I would love to.

That’s an interesting perspective. I might tend to agree. Couple days ago I had my nephew grab me two different dimes and same for my sister, and for all 4 buds, the high was identically bland.

commercial grows
fast and easy finish and big harvest
quality is secondary

Hell yeah. As soon as the buds stop swelling they’re coming down, ready or not. I blame it on lackluster logistics. People takin shortcuts at all the wrong times.

The first step was admitting I had a problem…sorry😉

Second step: Grow some sweet old school and landraces plants to full ripeness and ENJOY!

Thats really nice of you to offer. I think i can wait for a repro run. Plates quite full at the moment, but if i get time before you do i just might take you up on it… what kind of flowering time? I grew up hearing of Acapulco and Oaxacan. I missed getting to try them out by just a few years. By the time I was smoking the mexican pot, it made you sleepy. Speedy at first followed by munchies and a nap. Its nice to know the Acapulco is alive and well! can’t wait to see the Repro run!
