So to do a quick sex check is it 2 days in dark or 2 days in flower? Thanks
That sounds really nice @rasterman! Makes me anxious to dip into mine once itās cured a bit.
Looking forward to see how those Guatemalanās grow @TexasTea. How old are those seeds and did you have any germination issues?
Hey @Motaco sheās currently at 7.5 weeks flower and has a very fragrant sweet orange candy like smell, itās very inviting. Flowers are pretty fluffy and airy so not sure if itās just the current environment or if that is normal for her. The branches are starting to flop over so I can tell Iāll have to do some staking when I grow her again outdoors. I did clip a branch a couple days ago and just letting it dry up a bit before sampling.
I did reverse one of the clones using STS and was able to get a little bit of pollen to dust this flowering one. I do see a few small seeds starting to form but they seem to be developing a little slower than what I usually observe. If Iām able to get any seeds Iām happy to send some back to you if you donāt mind fems.
What is AllStar Mexican? Sounds incredible!
I grew one female this past fall and she was a beast. Nothing fussy about the grow either. Chopped her on Nov 6th. Iāve only smoked it a couple times so far and although I had been mixing a little bit of alcohol as well it was a very happy feeling social kind of high.
During the cure it had a very pronounced fruity almost bubblegum like smell and right now breaking up some of the flowers it has a sweet candy like lemon smell with the fruit in the far background now. Already looking forward to growing it again to see what else is in there.
NICE plant.
Hey thanks brother! I think the smells on this one would shine through even with the covid thing. I have some small clones growing right now and would be happy to share some snips once they are sized up a bit if interested. For anyone here actually, as long as thatās cool with @Motaco .
Yeah, Iām very curious about the Guatemala too. These were about 7 year old seedsā¦I put them directly in Solo cups on a heat pad and got 3 out of 4 to pop. Will make seeds if I canā¦
Incredible!!!
Goals nicely done
Well, I chopped it today. Iāll jar them up for a couple of months for evaluation. I still have the clones.
Looking good bro. She does look a little wispy? I donāt know why. I am sure once you get her dialed in you can get her producing denser buds. Not that she is a huge yielderā¦ but she produces a quick harvest with a decent yield of what at least I personally consider a good sativa high. I agree before moving her outside you will need to stake her. Always did have weak stems.
I just hope you like the smoke. I find it has pretty unique effects. Gets me high and not stoned. In particular a āfloatyā feeling that I donāt get from modern varieties. I hope I donāt skew your smoke report with preconceived notions of what to expect, but I am curious if you get similar effects.
As for seeds, and cuttingsā¦ spread them far and wide. I am an OG through and through. I donāt believe in hoarding, profiteering, etc. Free the seed and spread the weed.
@anon3323625 Som is the creator of AllStar Mexican. He is doing a preservation run of it now, that bafflingly has virtually no interest. It is bizarre how some threads just fall through the cracks
It is a line I made from Mexican brick weed in the late 80ās and early 90ās. I was doing pollen chucks of Mexican bag seed back then and this is the best line that came out of it. It isnāt as strong as modern weed but is still strong enough to be worth growing if you like the old school sativa buzz. I sent some f2s to Motaco a few years ago and he found a nice female which he then sent back to me. I am in the process of making a gazillion f3s with Motacoās cut and a really sativa looking male I found and intend to send them out to whoever wants them.
The flower from this line often comes out really fluffy. It is from before modern ānugā style weed. Even though it is a bit of a hybrid it is a late '80s early '90s hybrid so it has a lot of real sativa in it rather than modern āsativaā.
Screw the nug, old school is where itās at!

Six week veg + 6 week in flower.
Coming to the third phase another 5 or six weeks and be in the zone.
Another plant doing its own thingā¦rapid veg growth the N B now on the steady course and throwing some nice bud.

Beautiful job with those plants PJ! Do you leave the moisture meter in the pot?
Hmmm!
Thatās a hard one ā¦LOL
Iām always moving it around checking other plantsā¦but ye I leave it in sometime. ( same as dipping your wick LOL
Seriously I prefer the yellow one I have ā¦as Iām only using that white occasionally as itās a pretty crappy Chinese one.
When the plants are well in flower ā¦just lifting them gives you a better judgement.
Take care
P J
Excellent job PJ those plants look great happy and healthy thatās what I say
Thanks.
Ye no problem they are plants very uniformā¦as you said these could be grown Sea of green etc in a tent ā¦and with the rapid veg ā¦you could flip earlierā¦
Got to say smashing job you have doneā¦should be well proud.
Look at the erect pistils gagging for pollenā¦but not this time LOL
Thanks again
