I have my three moved into 1 gallon pots and will move them into 3 gallon real soon.
What node did you top yours at @Instg8ter?
I have one 4P haze that looks really sativa. Pics soon.

Monkey paw looks great. Was it as good as you hoped? That Durban looks better! Nice towers! 3 more weeks you figure? That will make 10 total?
@lefthandseeds… Durban is known for it’s up, speedy buzz. Do you have to pick when the glands are still clear for that effect, or can you let them get milky white or even a few amber?
Lol. The curse of spreading great genes!

I have been topping once from 6 down to 4th node then training with close LED until first node of the twin tops, then into flower.

Yes the monkey paw taste is there, I always thought it was a Sativa and when I chopped the tops the stems were as hollow as a straw, but they grow like a heavy Indica, thinking that’s more due to the pedigree Indicas (Katsu kush x TH Deep Chunk) influence. That said my plans are to hit clones with Acapulco Gold to back cross it. If that don’t push it back towards Sativa growth I’ll have plenty of candidates with the x-mas Mexican run, have some old stock CG on its way. I will veg the next ones for a little longer for a true yield. I rushed these into flower before tops showed first node.

Here’s a few from @Pawsfodocaws 35 year old stash of seeds. Both are a bit runty taller one has dense hard buds and the smaller are lighter. Smells are mostly of pine or cedar, I’ll let them cure good before I taste.
The frosty little girl is a freebie from GLG Called Dirty Margarita ( Dirty Girl x Strawberry Hawaiian ) and smells the part

Those look awesome. Earthy pine sounds great.
Based on the last set of photos of these, am I correct that the top two photos are the dirty margarita, and the other 5 photos are the genetics from paws?

I can’t wait to see what you do with them @zephyr. It was a stroke of luck getting those beans for me. I think everyone needs to enjoy that bud… @Instg8ter , like I said before good job man, earthy pine, sounds dank.

I’d be very excited if I get some phenos like instig8er’s chunkier plant.
I’m seeing broad leaf indica and narrow leaf indica in the mix. I’m not sure if I’m seeing a slight sativa influence or just narrow leaf afghani traits.
The structure of the bud looks like classic afghani garda hashish genetics. I only see that knobbly, multi-pointed greasy bud structure in strains with heavy afghani influence.
This structure comes through strong in hybrids. whatever this is, looks like it has some nice afghani genetics in the mix.

Thats very interesting, at first I was told they were sativa possible sensi. They obviously are not. I hope what you see in these, are favorable.

If they indeed came from a farm in eastern wash, that would also hint at indica dominant genetics.
As I understand it, it took a lot of breeding to create sativas that can harvest in this climate before rain and frost hit.
I was recently corresponding with a grower / mmj patient who has been cultivating since the early 70’s, and he was saying that all of his sativa heirlooms need to be carried indoors by mid october in northern o.r., and don’t harvest until mid january.
Even the early sativa 70’s dutch genetics, like durban, which had already been hybridized to indicas at that point.

Well I can tell you I got them from a gal running a farm in selah wa. She collected them, from most likely a open pollination of the strain she was growing. I was told (prob didn’t remember ) that they were sincy or sensi or something along those lines. And they were collected mid 70s. Stored in fridge for the years. And, also I have said before. I did a germ test, 8 out of 10 popped. I hope they are heavy indica as that is what I like. Cant wait to see more justice done to them.

Looks like we’re gonna have 3 finishers on the hand collected Jamaicans from @Swe-can. The one topped itself, and it looks like two from the large coconut seeds and one normal size. Just collected a little BM x Lambs Breath x Columbian Gold from a shut out of males. Sounds like a good match “Jamaican Bobsled”

That’s interesting. One is really stretchy. I was expecting more bushy/stocky plants. I’m really interested to see how they turn out. I kept a couple of males. Need to get those flowering as well.
