Will all be getting rarer now sadly but it’s not truly just Afghan though all the more big and " sativa" type stuff has the influence from the Uighurs so most of the northern strains are afghan turkestani in origin

Hey does anybody have more info on Kerela India?? I’m not finding much on the internet

Nepalese strains are fairly early strains in the evolution of cannabis. Within the Nepalese strains, there are many gigantic sativas, even as big as trees. This is not due to the intrusion of indica blood.

I am not as knowledgeable about indicas as I am about sativas. I don’t usually talk about indicas because I don’t have enough knowledge to do so, but many indica lines have sativas in their blood. Like Mazari, Uzbeki and many more.

The traditional strains generally consumed in Arab countries are long flowering plants because of the sativa blood they contain. This concept of compact and short flowering indicas is a concept rooted by seed banks and the market.

In the indica blood, there are the Afghani kafistarinica genes and the Hindu Kush genetics mixed together. But within the traditional indicas there is quite a bit of sativa blood mixed with those indica lineages.

The Kerala variety has never really existed. Kerala is a very large state in India, so the most correct thing to do would be to talk about the Kerala varieties. There was a morphotype with many different variants. There are several of these variants circulating in the world of growers, some older than others. Kerala is like Mazar in the Arab countries. It is more than a variety and it is one that, due to its quality, has extended its genetics to many other parts of the country, both to enrich other varieties or to generate new accreditations of the genes of the Kerala varieties.
Iduki, Orissa or Odisha, the Kerala of RSC, there are several varieties of Kerala on the market and several others among breeders.

It’s a brand that’s hundreds of years old but yes to a point there all variants on a theme bud but what Arab plants do you know that are long flowering any I seen seem to be faster and sometimes with semi auto traits I’m intrigued

On it! Made several diffrent cobs of different sweat times and moisture content. Their is a definate improvement. I made cobs of tlt malawi gold, rsc malawi gold, Ace malawi, and somali taxi ride. The transformation is more evident in the landrace malawi (tlt/rsc) the hybrids are good to tho

In 2003 a good friend take some seeds around Kabul,I have had a few plants but some of those were extremely long flowering nld; I believe (hope) that in many areas of the country there are still small crops of these old varieties…

Well actually i believe its the pesh that first made the mazari and the chitral but its only a theory :grin:
