The black Lebanese x black afghani testers

Well here we have it! Finally some great genetics in my garden, thanks to @lefthandseeds. Thank you so much!

Strain : black Lebanese x black afghani

CABINET GROW.
400 WATT MH/HPS
nutrients pending… would like to get into organic. But still lots of learning

Growing in Canada, in a dry flat province lol.

Put beans into water JUNE 16th

Into paper towel 24 hrs after soaking…

JUNE 20th:

Into some promix I put it… really liking the sounds of that coco the lefthand ! Thinking about changing media if I can figure it out quickly… should be similar to using promix ? Lol I don’t know, working lots lately and don’t have much time though! I’m so happy for the beautifully long tap roots ! I’ve never had such nice looking tap roots.

It was difficult to plant that longest one, almost like performing surgery lol. Well here’s a joint of black mamba towards this beautiful new life !

Happy growing .

What’s the BL like? Is it strictly for hash? Is is a good smoker? I’m not sure I’ve heard much about the Lebanese strains… we used to smoke a ton of Lebanese hash in the day.

I smoked Lebanese in the past century and it was great and resinous, all the best for your grow, will be interesting to follow … :sunglasses:

Thanks for the kind comments ! Glad to hear George, I’m very excited for these plants and hope everything turns out great.

As for the flavour; you would have to ask lefthandseeds ! I am still yet to find out the flavour and smell… but I knew after re-reading the list of testers a few times that this black leb x black afghani really stood out. It was hard to choose a strain because they all sound so beautiful and tasty heh. Lefthand has a grow diary for these I believe… his descriptions will be in there.

Cheers everyone and here’s to some beautiful females to come ! :smiley: lights a doob* heh

Happy growing!

The Black Leb is a fantastic smoke.

I grew it last run, you can see some shots in my most recent grow diary. I adopted the plant from @lefthandseeds because he had to toss some females for plant space.

Highly resinous (potent), really tall, but with a big liter bottle main cola and very dense flower structure.

I actually had a small amount of bud rot it was so dense, but I ran it longer than it should have. It’s a 60 day plant, period.

I got the vibe of some berry pie smells from mine, but it wasn’t fully cured at the time.

@lefthandseeds likes black afghan a lot also so this cross will be pretty great. Just keep the airflow on it.

Well I must say it was hash that my brothers brought from Amsterdam 30 years ago. I remember that you could heat it just squishing it with your fingers, like plastiline. Still have a vivid memory. I left then smoking tobacco so no more hash since, just weed. Still wondering which are the diffetences between them, hope some day I will grow some Lebanese too and find it out.

Until then I will follow and enjoy your grow, indeed great expectations coming ahead … :sunglasses:

Very excited to get these girls going heh. Here’s a little update. They were above ground last Friday

Okay so day 5 of life !
Got them hardened off now and they are in the real world. Currnly just under a 25 watt T5 until I build a veg chamber

A little bit of stretching :stuck_out_tongue: oops ! Waiting for this blue god to finish up before I can put them into the big room.

DAY 8

Some funky looking leaves … what does everyone think? Maybe too close to my t5 ? First time using this light

6 Likes

They look fine. It is difficult to put a T5 too close, they can almost touch the bulb.

Nice plants! I can’t yet put my finger on whether those leaves are more like the Black Lebanon or the Black Afghani… but I think they’re a little more like the Leb.

Thanks man, hope the yellowing stops on the leaves. Nice! Great to know, I’m excited for these ones.

Accidentally broke the one seedling in half, tied it to a stake and now it is taller than the other seedling. Great strong genetics. All 4 of 4 seeds germinated and sprouted. Huuge Tap roots
