This is what I was thinking. They have already been shaped by the local climate. They are already cold resistant, finish early, handle fall rains, and are used to the pests in the area. My guess is that anything acclimated to the upper Midwest will finish in a wide variety of challenging temperate climates.

I kept some seeds from the Cordillera de Tilarán mountain range up North. But they were from brick, so it probably traveled from farther away.

Did you grow them?
I been to Volcan Aranel, Fortuna was a nice chilled out town.
Nice to watch the Volcano at night. Worth a visit… But very touristy.

We stopped there (we were tourists 
), but then we went up to Monteverde after that, which is where we got the brick. I haven’t grown it, but I have maybe 10-12 seeds I might sprout some day. See what it was like before it got obliterated

Costa Rica is a beautiful country…but has become so expensive to live there, especially on the quanacaste beaches. Real estate is through the roof.
But I used to blow my head off there and Nicaragua as well about 18 years ago.
I settled for retirement in Panama…near the Costa Rica Border…so I hop over occasionally.
South CR, (Uvita and Dominical the Caribbean coast ( Limon Cahuita) , quanacaste and you will always find quality weed…
Anyway just sayin Amigo
if your ever back in Central America again…come visit Bienviendos……pura vida

I usually veg Sativas or Sativa learners at least 50 days…some 60.
I veg indoors then out to the greenhouse .
A lot depends on the hieght in vey room.
All I’m saying is if you have room outside or greenhouse works for long vegging and established plants.
I’m sorry to here you lucked out n your Am H/choc rain…I’m finding them great to grow…they just do their own thing.
Shame you weren’t around this area…I got some nice clones…she clones nice.
Good luck on your next grow

You’re very welcome.I’m from '73, so miss some parts of the time you were a teenager, but love this kind of history.Thankfully due the IRT affair in my country there was in the early 90s a lot of brick weed from different areas in the world available like oldschool Jamaican,Colombian,Thai, Indo, Phillipino, African you name it, so i could taste a bit what you had in your time as teenager.The only import we have today is from California & Canada with fancy names.Personally still miss the oldschool import.In Rotterdam we had the minty Thai, in A’dam you could buy the coffee/chocolate Thai.You remember this poster from 1977 with Colombian Gold buds?

Here are a few pics of Mexican punto rojo plants coming along. I’ll try to get more in better lighting tomorrow.
Good news is I pollinated a branch of each so I’ll have some f2, but bad news is I was planning to run a full open pollination in the tent and lost those due to some technical difficulties…
I definitely will have enough to give a bigger repro a chance down the road, so all good and I still have a cut of the male so I’ll try to cross him with another Mexican line for fun.

The smell is kinda just danky lol seriously I can’t describe any other way. I’ll have My girl smell it she has a great nose. The actual calyx are starting to take a blueish hue also couple nights in the 30’s. Here’s my girl today!
@deeez99 the Oaxacan x red snake has a few days of cure and smoke gas smoothed out a lot. The smell is overpowering sour berry. I give a smoke report when I can smoke it first thing so it the first smoke of the day.
