This last year, I managed to acquire 2 packs of cannabiogen’s Ghana line from two Spanish growshops. Pevgrow.com and Tucultivo.net
At this moment, I am looking to see if there are any growers with some experience that have the desire to preserve(repro) this African sativa line that can potentially go over 16 weeks.
Here is a description from seedsman:
Ghana regular is a limited edition West African with a very trippy yet social high. It is a tall plant with a long flowering period as might be expected of cannabis indigenous to equatorial regions. The taste is spicy with a hint of mint.
“…the terps are magnificent if you go for old skool type stuff. incense, burnt hair, spices that now to me epitomize Africa for some reason. the terps are wild, untamed, different. not like south American nor indonesia or Nepalese. a lot of the Africa strains have the woody, earthy, musky, hashy terps. not Ghana. totally different.
…
the Ghana smoke got a lot better for me after 5 mth. cure.
…
Ghana is dreamy, upbeat, euphoric.
…
CBG said Ghana tested high in THCV”
I wish i had room. Booked til fall time unfortunately. Lots of preservation planned.
I also have a pack of Ghana from GN Collection @Wuachuma. Different one i think. I’d put that up for adoption too if there were interest in making more seed. @US3RNAM3 They sound great!
Ya @US3RNAM3 big up CBG, Ghana is reputed to have the stronger weed in West Africa, Black/Red kind with early flowering compared to Gold/Green i think. Connection with Congo and South Africans’s Malawi/ Swazi possibility. (?)
“I know of 4 strains from Ghana, Esbe’s Jahwi’s Joy, the Accra Skunk zamalito talks about, an unkown seedline a friend in London has that he obtained from a friend who went to Ghana and a cut (may exist in seed from too) that was grown by some rastas in Bradford back in the 90s that I nicknamed Black Star after the famous Ghana football team and cos it had almost black dark foliage. The London seedline produces plants that look very like traditional Jamaican sativas and I reckon it shares the same S. Indian background as Jamaican sats. The Black Star was a very narcotic smoke, the kind of weed that caused you to spend all afternoon staring into space nodding slowly to dub reggae, those rastas loved that cut and said they had had it for years”
It seems there are multiple guardian angels watching over this landrace community, there’s a willing steward that has stepped forward for this season. Bless up ! If anybody sees this message and knows of sources for Cannabiogen’s older landrace stock - please don’t hesitate to shoot a quick msg. These lines must be saved for the next generation!!
Who know here the real name of this weed ?
Who know here how this weed is the most appreciated ?
And who know the particularity of this cultivar in term of terroir ?
Have you find someone already working on the repro ?
I would be very interested, but have a few things in the pipeline like Reeferman´s Willy Nelson and some Hazes first. So couldn´s start right away with it.
There are some informations about weed in ghana here on cannabisonline (french only sorry) from someone that lived a bit there, brought back some seeds and worked them a bit. Don’t know if it holds what you want.
Don’t know if it’s still worked. A co-op of that strain, or maybe a freaker run would be awesome.
Damn, almost all the intel is on the post you linked, but one i will keep for testing ^^
the real name is “wee”, but it’s linked with a specific way to consume it, proper to ghanna.
cocoa plantations is where the high tier is grown ^^
On the report, i saw between the lines that he’s looking like to have got a low tier.
Considering the location and the description of the weed, i’m even thinking about a nigerian import (equivalent of mex bricks for americans for there) often smuggled by togolese in ghanna.
When you’re enough lucky to get some, the wee is neon green with a very strong “clove range” scent. It’s a “shaded weed” grown at high RH … not a malawi of desertic hills fried by the sun (and a lot less potent) ^^
The same profile that a terpy critical mass, but in more sugared with notes of camphor. It’s a profile you can found also in the Durban Sensi and some early 2000’s repros.
Not an easy girl, maybe why the dormancy. Also a bunch of weird theories on repros that are not helping in practice, in front to the plants, i guess ^^
The Ghana which CBG sold was sourced by FlyingLion
Hi man, I’ve just read your other thread about Tucultivo.net and was curious if the Ghana is the real deal or not? Because in the other thread your warning about this shop.
