Hi everyone, I thought I would make a thread for all you African and non African :wave: growers of African strains to post pics of the genetics you guys grow. It will be interesting to see all the different African strains being grown out there.

So come on guys let's see what you got growing! :canabis:

I'll start of with some Africans I've grown and growing.

Purple Aids male


DP male


Swazi




More Swazi’s


Malawi Gold




Regards everyone :rasta:

Hello African Herbman
Your pictures looks really great, sadly I don´t have any African strain.

Greetings

Thanks for the kind words bro!
Good taste man, that Swazi red (or rooibaard as it's usually known here) is also my personal favourite. But it seems to very hard to come across the real deal here though, well at least for me anyway.

Those girls look beautiful man, would love to see some bud shots...:canabis:

Hi African Herbsman,

Thanks for the lovely pics! Are your strains from any particular seedbank, or directly from southern africa?

Thanks RubbaDub. No, none are from seedbanks, all from local stuff here in SA.

Thanks Lowridersa, good to see you mate. Looking forward to your pics…
Yea, that Swazi was from local seeds and was grown indoors under fluoro tubes.

Holy moly, that is some damn good looking bud.


Some pics of african hybrids:


Swazi x Skunk





Nigerian 99 ( NIgerian x cinderalla 99 ) afropips.com











Malawi





Made some cobs out of this plant, the cobs were great and made by a local who had done it before, they came out very solid and damn good smoke. I am sure I can say the strongest I have smoked, or possibly the one of the most memorable.







Malawi ready to be smoked.



Swazi

This I have bent in two places to give a more stealth grow on my balcony.


Head shot:

Some sativa net candy.

Really looks like some kickass deep south sativa, niceeeee.


AH thank you, the nigerian 99 was possibly the most memorable smoke I have ever had. Well spotted. The last two plants were taken of a sativa about 3 metres up in the northen suburbs of JHB, by a fellow grower who does not use the net, well soon will be using the net, and grows throughout the year outside. He is a funny guy, with lots of stories from around the world and is very intersting to listen to. Her names his plants according to their characteristics and cross breeds strains with names such as southern lights, zuma, bbb ( billybudbud), the plants are wack man, grown beautifully and all shapes, sizes and colours.
Check it out, when I get time i will put names to plants, in time.

lowridersa, sounds like a cool guy. Thanks for the link, some of those plants look really nice. Are they all the same strain in the link?

Here's some pics.
Not pure, but half african. fem DPxSkunk






And here's my Purple Aids male just before being put indoors again to re-veg. He is coming along nicely under 24hour lighting.

really nice thread !!!i always like to hear about traditional strains....i´ve been growing the powerplant -DP (DP: Powerplant (mostly Sativa) was developed by us in 1997 from new South African genetics. This strain has been inbred only, never hybridised)
for sure not a pure sativa but a nice plant .
