I wanted to clarify my previous post. I am not saying landraces don’t exist, just saying that in the future you won’t be able to find them in commercial weed. I love landrace strains and hope to be able to grow somemore sometime soon.

wow, Punto Rojo sounds incredible - 16 - 24 semanas flowering time! that will grow right out of my tent.

…Traditional Colombian Creole lines have played a pivotal role in the history of psychoactive cannabis, from large marijuana exports to the United States during the 60-70 years, to its legacy that remains in modern varieties through such ubiquitous hybrids as haze or skunk # 1.

It is a country of lush vegetation and great geographical diversity, as we can find in it from mountain ranges close to 3000 m altitude (Bogotá or Cundinamarca) to extensive rainforests or practically desert areas.

These peculiarities in its orography favor the existence of many isolated territories and different microclimates in its mountains, with very concrete niches that have contributed to originate a great diversity of different ecotypes of cannabis.

Amigo yo no he recibido nada de tu parte. Seguro estas confundido… LOL

Yes, it seems like growing regular seeds, selecting and keeping motherplants and cloning is just too much hassle and work for small growers. They can much more easily grow from feminised seeds and seedbanks respond to this demand… This is ongoing major change on the market…

There is already thread about fem vs regular:

That’s exactly what I do!
Any time I meet an old hippie I always slip seeds into the conversation.

No luck so far, but one day I’m going to ask the right old head and hit the jackpot.

When they found the Mongolian shaman’s stash from 2,700 years ago they tried to germinate his seeds! No luck unfortunately

So the scientific name for seeds is actually “achenes”…cool! Maybe they should have tried the paper towel method?

Germination was attempted with 100 achenes in compost, but no emergence was observed after 21 d.

What about NORTH KOREA!! Anyone ever think about that for landrace seeds?? I believe they don’t even recognize mj as illegal. It is just a plant. (really not sure) but, I bet you could find some good landraces there. Now, all we need is a volunteer to go and find them, than bring em home. WHO SAYS ME??? hahahahahahaha

That poor people can’t even get out of the house without being wtched and followed, controlled and supervised in every aspect of their lives. Their “religious leader” it is a State/Creed way of living… All the while people can’t even get food, shoes or clothes. Let alones diapers for the babies. As an american if you go there, you’ll need to explain your purpose of the visit and most of the time they will escort you everywhere you go. I’m sure the thought has crossed some minds, but nobody will step forward, to defend our liberty, yes; but to go searching for weed seeds, i doubt it… LOL
