Nice thread... I would love to grow this plant, didn't tried it yet!

As far as I know, it came from a few old seeds remaining from the Ciskey Bushman, from the Herbaria swiss seedbank, gone a long time ago and shared by them. They were reproduced and worked by Aeros from Tropical Seeds, and interesting plants appeared!

By the way, one of the breeders of Herbaria works now in the swiss seedbank Alpine Seeds now, he was the one who told me the story.

bushman ciskei aka tropical seeds chiskei looks like a great fast, energetic, dense nug strain. one potential hybrid would be the autoflowering yet very late finishing zamal with its amphetamine trippy high. this might actually be a natural auto-flower with fairly quick finishing time. if so it could be a very valuable hybrid strain. ciskei mated with many extreme sats could be worth considering.

My winter project:
-Ciskei from Tropical seeds
I will make some seeds for personal breeding projects,but main goal is to select good mother for next year outdoor,and some good nice electric sativa stash for Christmas and new year:)
Soaked 6 seeds,all sprouted and now are in veg containers.

Interesting, these look very diffrerent from everything I ever grew and were supposedly bushman ciskey. How old are those? Did you grew them outside? When do they finish?

Here's my patch. Todays pics:

Yep I got my Ciskei and Durban*Ciskei freebies from Tropical seeds.
Real nice man,due to some mix-up and delayed delivery,I received 16 Ciskei seeds,instead of regular 10,and some real killer freebies!
I realty hope he is OK and breeding ,Tropical seeds site is down for like a year or so....

Looking nice and bushy! This is a great, fast and clear sativa. Great potential for breeding other long flowering plants! :)

Just a little bump for this thread...
I want to buy some, I sure hope Tropical Seeds still have them.
If they really are early and finish nicely outdoors, I'll save a nice male to use in some crosses.
Any new experiences with Ciskey ? How does it compare with Reina Madre, are the flowering times similar ?
Thanks in advance, HJ.

Hey, Husky they are available. I`m not sure about vendors and resellers but you can get them directly from tropicalseedscompany dot com and some other tasty african gear. ;)
