Right on! No, you weren’t douchey and I didn’t mean to sound too defensive. I’m just still getting used to the generosity around here. I would be ecstatic if we could make that Mazari connection in the future.

@Upstate thank you for the tips. I’m super familiar with about half those names, but so juiced to have found some new places to look for landrace seeds and growing info.

Thru a peshawar photo in there by accident. Middle photo. I have more Tirah photos. The buds are starting to look very photogenic. I can’t keep my nose off Miss Pistachio. If she were an actual lady, I’d have been slapped and sued long ago, lol!! Man I wish we had a scratch and sniff app!
Nice little clump of seeds on top of the one plant from the Peshawar pollination.
See how the leaves protected the lowers? I just pruned a bit and was surprised to see almost no seed down low.

Boy, the plants are starting to stack now. Seems extra fast after growing almost only longflowers for a few years now.
The peshawar blocks me from getting a good look at them and getting good photos Because they are in the back of my room.
So far at least 3 of the 6 plants would be worth growing again based on smell and bud formation.
A 4th will likely make the cut and a 5th is not far enough along for me to tell.
Just the very short plant would be eliminated if this were a select preservation.
I’m pretty sure I will be able to pollinate these plants ar least a little bit shortly. I don’t see a fresh stigma anywhere on the peshawar preservation plant, Joe. So no risk of contamination there…
The seeds are very developed on my other peshawar females and on the Tirah.
I think at this point I would cry if I didn’t get seeds from Miss pistachio, miss bigleaves, the seductive sweet perfume plant and the Peshawar sativa pheno. Indeed if I do not pollinate it would be the 1st land race I have ever grown that did not get pollinated to make more seed to at least replace those I grew.
@LandraceWarden great eye picking plants to gather seed from, my friend. I’ve never had so many keepers( and never spotted them so early) from a landrace run with seed from country of origin . Never.

How far along are they? They look about ready to explode.

@GMan I don’t even know my friend lol. I’d have to go back in the thread and look. Maybe 5 or 6 weeks in? For sure they are ready to explode. And when I told @Barefrog I didn’t expect to get any bud that looked like his plants , I am quite excited that I will apparently eat my words😁
Just this last week, the Buds doubled in size, and they just hit full bud mode two weeks ago at most. The next two will be fun!!

2 weeks ago, I didn’t unplug my light all the way at night, so the plants had a 36 hrs on cycle. I kept quiet until I knew how badly I fucked up. Thankfully all the Tirah are stable except for the Peshawar pheno, which has thrown a manageable amount of nanners in protest. (First photo is pesh pheno)
I’ve seen weed that looks similar to this in my lifetime and EVERY time it’s a great smoke.
That’s right. Upstate is too low tech for timers​:rofl::joy:
Not really. It forces me to visit the plants twice a day.

First female has seed development, but, it looks lethal in flower delvelopment!

There’s a few seeds on every plant from the last Peshawar pollination. I sprayed them down with water real good afterwards, but my ass was literally transferring pollen from " joe" to the other plants every time I moved. I’m not complaining. Maybe a dozen or 2 dozen a plant.

That’s miss Big leaves. Yeah, nice big buds on that one and a sweet perfume smell. Just the one bud got nailed badly by pollen and maybe a few others have one or two. Doesn’t seem to have slowed them down any lol.
Seeds will be ripe soon.
