I found these old pictures of Swazis I've grown

First pic is a lanky stretcher from 2007/08 from African seeds originals. It made your head spin. The latter two I think are from Musta. The last one is the mother of those Ethiopian hybrids of mine. They all look very different to each other, all are African seeds Swazis. That's what I love about these, the variety. I don't know how many generations they were worked with in Spain but I remember the first plant being quite different to the latter ones. Nothing compact about it. Also completely green so something changed along the way.
Maybe someone has heard from Thule? :thinking:

Musta's Purple Congo I grew a few years ago outdoors at 41°N finished, defiantly not to its full potential because of coolness/too short days, but still good.

Remember there was a seed company selling purple congo maybe it was called Tropical Seeds?
Well the one they has was not a pure one like the one you have @RandyCalifornia
It always spoke to me saying plant me, grow me... :)

There was a time in my youth that I got some Dark Black/Purple weed from a African friend
It was the most potent weed I had smoked at the time and for many years after until I found the
Purple Haze Pheno it was the ony one close in potency and effect
There also appeared to me in the past couple years a black/purple Thai Pheno

Well off topic now a little, the African lines are sure special in many ways :huggg:
Looking forward to more of the Dark strains I just love the terpenes in them :love:

there are a few people all over who have said this..up here in Canada too
I first heard of it in the later 60’s[black,fermented looking.ugly, leaf material too...no nice bud]
unfortunately i missed it and have no first hand idea
but I do have some interesting and hilarious stories from people
[then it was gone forever ]

Hi folks someone on ic mentioned love of landrace but i cant find the post to ask op.
Has anyone experience with them? Where do they ship from?
And most importand are their strains what they should be? They look like to have a nice selection of african strains and the pics look authentic imo.
I'm thinking of trying their kwazulu, malawi and durban but the others also look nice.

I grew a couple of his Durban last year and got two males that I crossed with CBG Durban and some other things.
I think what he sells is authentic enough. I doubt his Durban is from 1980s seeds but its still worth growing.
The Malawi looks very similar to the one RSC sells. The feral Kwa Zulu might be too authentic though. In that I think its probably almost no THC. In my experience, smoking the feral weed in SA isnt worth it.

I ordered from Khalifa but that was because he didnt have a web site then and it seemed more likely that it would be easier to get reimbursed if they got lost in customs
