Michigan Monkey Paw

Nice. I was completely blind to its lineage.

Damn, @Instg8ter ive been following this thread since you started it, and it always sounded super cool. But now, with @MotherTeresa having a possible hookup to an original cut… you may have found your unicorn.

I hope this works out for you, cause it would be an awesome ending to an already cool story!

That’s the best I can do as I have these in safe keeping for when I do get around to growing them.
But luckily they still have some!!!
Hope this helps my friend! :call_me_hand:t4::call_me_hand:t4:

I was just listening to the Potcast episode with Bob Hemphill. On it he says he has a Monkey Paw cut (around an hour and a half into the interview). He says the lineage is Viet Black and Nepalese Highland.

Never had it, just passing along his take

Yes I have heard that too and often wondered, I believe it was held and grown locally by a Vietnam vet that was also in a MC . Always thought it was in Thai /SEA family too. That’s the thing Monkey Paw is the Kaiser Sousa of marijuana , stories and local folklore abound but I can say the one thing I started with. Almost every person I talk to that has smoked the real deal of the 70-90’s puts it in their top 5.

Sadly, I only have a 1/2 pack of them. For years, I typically would split all my many packs with a couple of friends. So for most of my older collection I only have 1/2 packs.

When it gets time to do an F3, if I don’t get all five to germinate, I bet they still have them in their collection, and would share back for the preservation.

Radio Ridge Nursery had the Monkey Paw a couple years back (should have grabbed it). I emailed them to see if they still have it.

I bet they don’t though as they are always rotating through the latest strains.

OOOh, i have some LT and will be doing them sooner than later. I want to wait til I can run only them and try to get some seed.

I still haven’t smoked it yet. A friend from Europe gifted them to me. What’s you opinion on the Lemon Thai? I’ve heard good things but it’s been a while. peace
