I am growing some Mulanje (Malawi) for seed at the moment they are 3 weeks old from seed.
I am hoping to harvest the seeds before August when I am going away for a month.
I find if they are seeded Sativas finish very quickly. I recently made some seeds from Aces Honduras x Panama as they no longer deliver to Australia where I live, they were finished at 8 weeks flowering seeded.
Of course if your after seedless buds they flower a lot longer due to them trying to get pollinated.
It also helps to reduce lights on time to 8 hrs 16hrs off which hurries them up as well.
✍️*frantically writing notes*
That makes sense. I am, 1, being very motivated by seeds so it seems a match made in heaven for me to always seed, 2, go after the wild sativas and, 3, *bonus*, get buds faster. Great info thank you sir

I had bad luck with my ghanaians
My pack of Ghana didnt sprout same as my 40 seeds of Jahwis Joy from year 2006
I sprouted all the africans I had. I had a little better luck with Durban and have 4 little plants
And I have like 6 out of 21 Zamal landrace hybrid called Mango Pepper and 1 Mangu karut. I have another Mangu karot fighting for life, no vigour at all, seeds have not been stored or preserved well in many places, all stuff from different sources. It is a lottery
I was very surprised with my Swazi Skunk. I like it! I didnt expect it, it was half pack hermies and a lot of mould problems, specially in the winter grow
Nonetheless, the ones that more or less managed to make it were very resinous and very interesting high. It certainly has character

These are my senegalese. It is impressive. From non vigorous mother plants I am getting monsters
On the left Senegal Haze x MadMac Ohz and right is Senegal JGL x MadMac Ohz both in 3,5 liter pots and well over 2 meters high, crazy. They are grown straight 11/13 from seed. My first Senegal Haze girl made a lot of bananas but the smell is very impressive, same like mom, and just after a couple of weeks cure has a high. I will run her outdoors because I want to see if she makes same bananas outdoor too

Senegal JGL x Ohz, day 79 after shown first pistils, this is how I count when grown 11/13 from seed, she doesnt care at all about white flies or red mites

I harvested today this Wonder Woman Seedsman Skunkman Range x MadMac Ohz girl after she showed me her true self, day 86 after first pistil shown

I found a few buds like this, would you throw it to the garbage/compost because of a few bananas?

The best genetics I am trying are all LGBT, I am sure many excellent plants that should be part of the sativa breeding pool with are being thrown to the garbage because of sexual issues. I only care for the quality of the high. A few bananas at the end of flowering should not be an excuse to cull a good quality trippy plant. If it is not trippy, then cull
Finally someone else realizes all sensimilla has taken from the gene pool! Couldn't agree with you more

Grabbed a pack of Khalifa Genetics Nigerian sativa aka Afropips repro. Anyone grow those to see what's up? Looking forward to popping when the time comes.
KG saw them there too, would love to get this one from afro pips as well, could be a good thing. Selection means choosing a great female or male plant...Most people view selection as culling everything but one or two plants...which leaves very little room for selection the next run... have to agree too... selecting herms out narrows thousands of years of mother nature knowing whats best...Looks nice hows it smoke effects and flavors smells any smoke reports forth coming ?
