Oh my I sure hope if finishes sooner, that was a looooong one to wait for

Yes sure you gonna have diversity with an earlier geno/phenotype in the harem i think, maybe your male could offer you this precocius progeny for future btw, fingers cross bro!

Hi!
Very cool thread I am glad there is place to talk about it!
I am not sure how it works here, if I should create a thread about my experience in cannabis in Madagascar, my english is not perfect…
Things coming from Madagascar are called Malagasy and we don’t say Zamala, it’s Jamal, Rongony, Maintso, Meina or simply ganja. Zamal is how they say in La Réunion, a French Island (actually Mayotte too) close to Madagascar. I am not sure the how term “zamala” is actually used but I might be wrong.
As for the different strains, it’s complicated.
I found few different kinds, the Créoles gave them names but from what I’ve experienced there is tomato taste one, mango, pepper/spicy and red pistils. Many are molded/cobbed in some way. But they are all mixed up in the fields, there is loads of herms, it’s very seedy for the most part.
Locals seems to prefer the most seedy ones that are spicy and hit quite a bit if you are patient enough to sort the seeds out. It’s trippy effects, psychedelic high.
I got to mention, there is also actual fields of hybrids and kush/skunk types of high quality. I know there is an old Kush here in the mountains that have been selected and kept for decades and mixed up with the other landraces to make very good hybrids, with no more seeds or very few. I nowadays smoke that kind.
I probably should have post those pics here… Please forgive my amateurism this is guerilla growing
thanks

Salut et bienvenue à toi sur OG CrazyLemur,
Manahoana! 
Ya i mainly use the Malagasy term “zamala” as education, connection and origin of La Réunion’s famous. By the way i wonder how it was called longtime ago, knowing that in the last century the cannabis become very taboo “fady” partly due to its powerful effects i think. ^^ Jamal(a) sounds nice old but i know rongony is the most used in literary Malagasy.
Thanks welcome again and by the pleasure to send you my work in future, my next generation will be focused on the few purple fruity moms’s offspring i separated. I think to develop and isolate multiple lines in the line and the fruity purple one is my first cap with Zam will see! Veloma!

Salama tsara!
Misaotra betsaka !
Merci @Roms pour l’accueil !
Thank you so much for your work and research on our landrace, and for putting a light on the big island and Malagasy culture ! I am looking up to your next generation, sounds great…
The lemurs are greeting you, keep it up !
Veloma ary

Very cool thread!
Isn’t the flowering time a bit stretched (16-24), indicating mixed gene pools (like different endemic landraces)?

Indeed bro stretched flowering times estimate but from landrace with high elevations spots it’s not surprising, the genotype window is still large!! Knowing that even from highlands the recessiveness from sea level is powerfull i think and that’s why you can still find few endless ones.

Cool bro Welcome Back! 
Bravo and thanks for the love and patience, it looks longer Green geno/pheno, compared to Red/Gold 16/20 weekers which are more resinous and with a bit more compact flowers i think. The fruity possibility is also relative to the ealier flowering times.
Have a good couple of weeks finish, respect!

Beautiful plant @Dirt_Life I got a 10 pack of these from @Roms on 4/20 and was planning on making more. Your plant 
makes me want to do it sooner than later

Thanks, all! For the welcoming vibes and nice comments… Just to clarify, she probably would’ve had slightly denser buds, but she had flopped over on herself, outgrew my vertical space, so I decided to leave her alone, other than shifting her colas for better spread… I also grow under LED, so, maybe under HID, more dense? Either way, she was (is) fun to grow!

Vibes bro yes slight different bud structure according light system and intensity but i think your phenotype is really more genotype in fact. Green endless specimens are always more airy and foxtail like
