I totally agree, as do the few Old folks left in Afghanistan. They always prefer the late plants. I honestly don’t know why we never put 2 and 2 together earlier. Why just looking at Mazar plants everyones immediate thought wasn’t" hybrid". 3 footers and
20 footers mixed in one cultivar. If we saw that anywhere else on earth but Afghanistan, we would be crying contamination. Sometimes truth stares us in the face, but if we are not looking for it, we won’t see it.
Btw, I’d hardly call an old heirloom like Mazar a hybrid at this point, What it was obviously born of a mixing between two unrelated gene pools

Could/would you preserve it first? An op with all plants, then do your thing? The community would greatly appreciate such a thing
i’ll did… that’s always first… make repro with all good plants to keep diversity etc…

Whats your opinion on ukufu,
Its heritage is assumed Swaziland x Indian, possible indian influence from 1600s when the coolies worked the sugar cane fields in southeast Africa
it started out kinda broad and is getting more narrow as it grows thoughts? @mexcurandero420 thanks

My first thought is that cannabis was given so many names back then, for example, you say indica, then you say sativa, and then you say Indian Hemp. That’s what it was often called in medicine books. because hemp was the most common crop in Europe at that time
it actually could mean Cannabis in general and be any kind of strain

That was in the time, that South Africa was a Dutch colony. Chris Duvall wrote in his book Cannabis, that the Dutch provided drugs to the Khoisan tribe in SA for the help they had offered to the Dutch. The Khoisan tribe still smoking Cannabis like the Pygmies.

About Ukufu, its for me the first time, i heard of it. Its nearby Lesotho and i’ve grown that one, although it was a hybrid, but more to the Lesotho side. I’m curious about the aroma and if it has THCV in it.

Yeah remember Pakistan didn’t always exist India as a country is technically older so it used to be even bigger so there stuff definitely can vary alot some of the Himalayan stuff starts with thicker leaves then gets thinner in bloom as well but obviously now one has to be more careful sourcing as some of India etc has been really hit with hybrid contamination as well to make things more complicated and as others said cannabis went by so many different names through the years as well to confuse the situation a bit too bud
