Mmmm, I miss the licorice Durb. Mel Frank selling real-deal licorice Durb, but the shipping is like $50usd, which is like $65 CAD, which turned me off.
West Coast BC Hawaiian Sativa as I remember was a 11 week flowerer that has strong menthol taste to it (Federation Seed Co’s Hawaiian Sativa). I miss this plant too.
Respect to @Upstate for running long season gear. A 14 week sativa is a different beast than the typical indicas guys run nowadays. Some long flowering sativas dont like strong ferts.Usually feed em low and slow.
Diggn the foxtailing there @Upstate
ahahaha, ugh. I did that last year @Upstate, running 6 X 5 gallon containers of Roberts Creek Congos up 3 flights of stairs to a dark bedroom. Out at 6 am, in at 6 pm. my elbows and arms were in fancy pain for months after by carrying these 5 gallon containers twice a day. So I get where you are coming from there. Depping requires commitment.
Great job bro.
Overpriced, but almost extinct. Unrelated genetics ( to the other post regarding secret links) I actually understand the secrecy. Some have been burned at other sites by sharing links, having spent hours on research to find genetics that may be important to them, only to watch them get scooped up by others and get left out…BUT, If we all share what’s considered important to us, we will all find what we are looking for, which is why I personally share, and recommend others do as well. This is the Overgrow spirit I love.
I remember reading about Mel’s licorice Durban. Where is that for sale? Are the seeds as pricey as the shipping? That would definitely be real Durban I should think…and the fast pheno, correct? I’d love to try it and compare it to what I have.
Speaking of federation seed company…celestial temple sativa (Ecuador landrace) is available again at Brazilisn seed company on instagram( BSC) This is not Fritz(?)Fritzman(?), but his old partner. I can’t figure out how to order on the website, but I sent him some messages. He has some endangered landraces, and his descriptions are found on seedfinder, where I finally found the strain I grew this summer. The Cabeca de Negro. I looked at the wrong one months ago.( Different company) This one fits. ±95 days flowering, which was dead on for my latest plants. ( Great smoke)
I thought I was the only one crazy enough to cart plants in and out every day. But I had no stairs! That’s an extra effort right there! Thanks for the encouragement. It seems that it was worth it in the end. I have 2 Kullu left, with 16 weeks flowering coming up thursday. They could go that long, but I leave for work before the frost burns off, and I may have to pick sooner. Unusually cold here lately. Barely hit 50 this weekend.
The hardest part was finding out not how much, but how little food they want. Easy to overdose them. But easy to grow once the soil mix was right.
Hey @Upstate, 16 week flowering huh? damn thats commitment. Respect.
I learned on the Silver Haze strain that NPK inputs would feed them w/o using any other nutes. Less is def more when it comes to most long-flowering sativas. On the other hand, I ran those Roberts Creek Congos and they were total N nute pigs. Had to feed em N right up to week 9 of 10 weeks of flower. @Upstate check your messages for the Mel Frank link bro.
cheers
@Instg8ter is the Maui an unruly sativa, or well behaved?
Ive not seen seeds of Maui Wowie for sale ever I think.
Never seen pics of it either. Curious of its overall morphology, flower morphology too.
3X preflower stretch? or is it well behaved?
The poison Maui grows like a straight Sativa tall and thin with Asian/African like buds. The Maui is a preservation of old stock and I believe F2. Nice structure dense football like tops starting to swell with a few weeks to go…this is breeders pic of the Maui and a Island Kona Gold I also have…
Yes, I think so too. Had to be. His would be the result of 2 uncontaminated landraces, the Durban( transkei) and something else, newly arrived. A first-generation hybrid with some serious power.
From what I remember him talkin on ig, i believe its 80’s stock durban. All of his stock got taken in a raid according to him so maybe this was some friend of his or something that still had it? Which btw his stock getting taken fuckin sucks cause he had a landrace library and a lot of the stuff he had is probably gone for good.
From everything ive heard for years its just best to stay away from sensi until they get a hold of what ever the fuck clown show they have going on there. It seems their stock has gotten a bit better as of late but a lot of things are still bad
