im thinking about going to jamaica for a wekend since thats all the time i can spend away from home at one time and im looking for any info on a 2-3 day trip as inexpensive as possible going to collect to local flora and fauna samples that could possible be germinated back here if that works out ill prolly be doing a few more weekend trips elseware daughter says Hawaii and Thailand should be on the list
I could be wrong but unless you go there with previously arranged meets, on such short trips you will probably come back with a cookie cross
yes i know that ive got to get into a chat room with jamacians or hook up with someone that knows a rasta in jamaica
good luck !!!
A few different areas include :
Blue Mountain
Orange Hill
Would be really curious if you can find 16+ week flowering, as most are now hybrids…
Depends on the time of year doesn’t it?
I watched that strain hunters on YouTube
Seems like they got their wild seed Banks going on
Here is a interesting article ,
Seems like the the landrace team might have the legit Jamaican landrace
not nearly as fun of a story but you got a much better shot for heirloom buying seeds online. most everybody grows modern hybrids worldwide.
Longtime weed and the landrace team has it , makes me want to order some.
I can save you a trip. @Tlander and @highthailand both dropped the link below in the Overgrow Thailand Post.

Overgrow the world!
seeds prolly would be the only reason togo to thailand … a old rick james song comes to mind
Come for the seeds - stay for the life!
But DO check out Zomia Collective…not just their seeds, but dig deep into their info on the site.
Lol, yeah, the 70’s were a long time ago.
I forgot about that site. Thanks for the reminder. I’m looking forward to reading their stuff. I did a little just now. Cool stuff! peace
When I went to Jamaica some years back for my honeymoon I had some guy following me the whole time we were at some falls asking if I needed some ganja. But was too sketched out being in a tourist location. They were lighting up everywhere down there. So you may have some good chances to find what you’re looking for.
Go to orange hill or treasure beach, there’s a lot of good spots around those corners !! Just ask around and people will drive you there for a small fee, If you want more sativas growing go the Boston Bay Area, the wetter climate there is perfect for them !!
I found this crazy spot outside treasure beach and holy shit they got the massive field separated in 4 stages,
Gotta find Ras Mokko
There’s a video of him doing a garden tour he’s growing up on the mountain side it’s pretty cool idk if it was blue mountain or not but it looked awesome
There is a professor at a university in Kingston.
( Dr Machel Emanuel ) studying and growing landraces , the long time weed is one of if not the only one they feel is a true pure landrace if you were able to speak with him he may be able to offer you some good advice.
I’d love to acquire some of the longtime weed , seems like a great man doing great things.
