Message me where you want me to send them. I got the 5 popped that Im going to work with and clone and what not. I would send you more but thats whats left. warning: they are a few years old now, but still viable.

I think we’re probably all wondering more about the Chucky head on the right corner, not so much the lights.
Is that what happened the last member that tried to make a joke?

It actually scared me when I went out to the shop.
Maybe my wife thinks I need to work on my sense of humor

Right on @firehead ! I’m actually work through a pack of 100 i bought off the Amazon a couple yrs ago. I use them for sorting seed lots, starts, and I’ve even cut slits in the bottom and used them to make clones. Very useful indeed!

I believe that the particular selection of each farmer. apart from the environment where it is grown, topography, temperature fluctuations, nutrient disposition in the soil, etc. etc.
that makes the same variety no longer exactly the same.
My Mangobiche lines are from different parts of Colombia.

Thanks very much for the feedback, can you comment about the range of scents/aromas and effects? Did you find higher altitude were stronger/more potent accessions??

If you haven’t yet heard of the topic Take seeds, leave seeds- Landrace Edition, these have been waiting for someone to ‘Take seeds’…then ‘leave seeds’.

Hi brother
I’m not far from Chiapas right now
And i was planning on my way back to home
Hunt seeds on Chiapas, Oaxaca, guerrero, Michoacán, Colima and Jalisco
I got a good idea where places can still offer mexican landraces.
But recently the cartel violence take off Chiapas state and become quite dangerous
So i’m still not sure if i’m gonna go through Chiapas or better go through Veracruz area and go down in Oaxaca from there.

To be honest i haven’t tried all the different Mangobiche types
But the one we got now its really potent
And deep mangoe “Manila” smell
Really delicious

Lucky you, hope you get a little seed from it to continue the progeny in that case. Would love to hear a smoke report after it’s had a nice cure 
Can you describe what you mean by Manila?
Also curious what the soil composition you have it growing in?

Manilla its a mexican mangoe really sweet
Usually pure sativas hate a lot of nitrogen
So just compost, carbonatum calcium,worm humus its enough. Always give it to plants what they need all the time

Manilla is also a common rootstock for grafted mango trees grown in California

Question: I am now ready to pheno hunt, pollinate and do some crossing with the S1 cocoloco. I have 5 candidates with low likely hood of being male. Would it be an insult to cross it with either Super Massive Black Hole or Devils Tit if I happen to find a male of either? Do you recommend one over the other ? I’m interested in finding the Acapulco Gold phenos and keeping that in the mix.
Thanks @ClassicGenetix

Hi Youknew, both have the AGxC99 in there and are very heady hybrids, so both would be great as fathers. The Devil’s Tit has more of a trippy African effect from the Mendo Durban (NOT like most Durban you’ve likely had, this is some of the only herb I’ve had where i was too paranoid to leave the house, but couldnt stop laughing about how high I was at the same time). The SMBH is a bigger plant with a happier yet still trippy effect, so I’d use an SMBH male over Devil’s Tit if I had to choose. For SMBH my favorite pheno takes after the mom, so a large branched hazy looking plant with jurassic Malawi leaves the size of dinner plates and resin on the stems

Thank you,
I am looking forward to getting into these. I am going to do some pre-sex cloning before flipping and finding the keepers. The short term goal to have some F2s for outdoor season after doing some backcrossing with the original fathers and some female CL X SMBH F1s. Thanks for all the tips on pheno characteristics, that will be super helpful. I’ve always wanted to grow Laughing Buddha to have one of the giggly strains so this should be a good time for everyone. One more question: would back crossing make it not an F2? I am a novice breeder, I’ve really only done some pollen chucking with good bag seeds from nor cal before I moved up north.
Thanks again, Take care friend.

That’s awesome, I’ll find some photos for you. So Coco-Loco is Colombian Red and Acapulco Gold, and while SMBH has Acapulco Gold (and likely the same plant as I think John made them around the same time), it has other things like Vietnamese Black and Malawi in it as well making that an F1 hybrid

Suppose past the first time cross of SMBH F2 male X CL S1 Female. Say I then take those seeds being very selective with the prodigy of that SMBH X CL F1 cross. Then say I have a clone of the original SMBH father and backcross a few of the F1 cross of the 2. Would that still be considered F1 ? Also if I am only able to get female CLs to contribute to the cause, would repeating backcrossing those females be a good move ? Sorry for all the questions, Im just trying to come up with a plan that will give me something special for next years outdoor and beyond.
