The Central American landrace and heirloom thread (Part 2)

most of the countries in latin america are corrupt. But this is the result of those who came to colonize, build a new colony, with the excuse of freedom, which was actually an exile, of what they considered criminals, crazy, etc. In theory, what came first along with the ship of colonizers, was the corruption that was also on board.

Well said …and we can double it again…

People under estimate the size of Central and South America and the multiple islands that surround them.

Landraces in these countries were a cash crop mostly grown by. Indigenous communities…traveling rivers ,traversing mountains etc

If you’re looking for landraces you need to take all these things into consideration… they are. Out there, I’m. Very surprised that we do not hear much about the grow triangle around Guatemala, Belize and Chiapas in Mexico…even El Salvador.

It’s a great thing travelling and finding exellent weed…I’ve had some great stuff…But at the moment Panama , Costa Rica etc …is still full of Crispi, creepy…crimpi ( whatever dialect depends on the country) big time.

Limon. Verde was grown in Brazil as well.

Weed knows no borders…I am sure there are gems somewhere ,not just here …but in Asia far east as well.

It’s a great hobby…and doing research is great fun, especially on O G

Thanks

That stuff should be ready to use and not too hot. Chicken poo just has to settle out with time from whatever method.

In France if I recall correctly. Now that I know what Turkish looks like, I would say that’s a . Turkish plant In the Lebanese genepool

The one behind her looks interesting. Obviously longer flowering and nld looking.

The wife is very knowledgeable about period clothing and dates this one to around 1910, just prior to WWI is her guess…I’m betting France too, and Turkish, Lebanese or Moroccan would all be good guesses.

No doubt. A third plant, longer flowering as well, is behind the chunky one

Epic lineup! I’d missed all posts around here in the thread. Huixtepec is on the Oaxaca border and imo is the same landrace as Cryptic Labs Oaxaca. Stonier high than Cryptic Labs

I was going to comment how similar they look at that size.

Thanks! Have a few other Oaxacan crosses going too that I mashed up last season (NepalJam, Bangi Haze, and Ethiopian).

I also forgot to include the couple Oaxacan pearl stems going. One of them has some funky leaf variegation going on. I’ve read this can be either a gene expression or possible plant virus causing this so I’ll be keeping a close on it.

I don’t know about the variegated plants. I wouldn’t breed with it. I haven’t had one yet, save a kashmir plant or two. Neat looking though. Looking forward to the grow😁

That’s ringing a bell…seems like I had that happen one time a while back, but I forget which plant it was.
