A couple of Bangi's growing in the bog!

Lovely plants, they're smelling very fruity.

I saw Esbe's grow up in Denmark and had to give them a go outdoors.

Hello my friends ! :)

We're heading into our 3rd week of very bad weather and i'm sorry to say i had to cut my 2 flowering BHs at least 2 weeks too early... After the severe bugs attacks and the sooty mould, "regular" mold was starting to take over the 2 poor girls and i didn't want it to spread to the other plants.

I won't post pics of the damage, you don't want to keep that sorry sight in mind...

I still have BH clones though, so all hope isn't lost that i finally get to sample its ripe buds, providing the weather allows it...

To have at least an idea of what to expect, i sampled an unripe salvaged nug and had the good surprise to find the high and the taste a lot more pleasant than i expected, considering the state the plants were in, the fact that they should have gone 2 weeks longer and that the drying process has been hurried up to avoid the mold spreading...

BH 2 salvaged nug. Plants were a little over 5 weeks in flo.

I really want to once again give Dubi and Ace team credit for their work. This is definitely great genetics brothers ! :tiphat:


Can't believe how fast conditions have deteriorated here... It's a totally new tropical life we have to adapt to... One where it's almost impossible to properly finish originally tropical strains... Not easy to accept but there's not much we can do about it, apart breeding the most interesting genetics with the strains that resist the best in our environment :)____

StickySat - The bud is looking well for having been harvested so early!



Your part of the world seems like it has very different and particular challenges, good luck with the rest of your plants.

Thanks for the kind words brothers ! :)

Sticky wait till that baby is in the jar for a few weeks the smell and flavor really come with a good cure.:peacock:

Hey Rodehazrd ! Unfortunately, friends who tried it already love it so much that i just can't keep their hands out of the paper bag and doubt i'll be able to properly cure anything... ;) There's more clones anyway...

Had to stop smoking several years ago, after my lungs were permanently damaged by an ignorant nurse who reapetedly sent into it an aspiration hose supposed to go into my stomach... Pain was so bad i thought i was going to die when i first smoke afterward... In the U.S i could have sued for compensation but here you're just allowed to die in silence... Now i only make exceptions to sample new strains once or twice, for breeding purpose... With the BH it was a real pleasure. Actually so smooth i almost didn't cough.

I usually make cookies and they sure get me high enough... :)

Hey Nup ! It's indeed very different to grow here than what people could imagine, and it's perpetually changing so it's difficult to adapt.
No worries though, so far there's always been enough to make cookies...! ;)

Hi Sticky Sat,

I'm glad those Bangi Hazes are working out for you. I found a few with an effect of the highest order. They bred quite well to my other genetics. I have some Congo x Bangi Haze seeds that I'm hoping will reinforce the best traits of the high.

Hello ThaiBliss ! :)

I only sampled the unripe fat pheno and have no doubt this strain is an asset for any sativa lover's breeding project. Very clear and uplifting, with a smooth landing that makes you want to take off right away again... Too bad i can't smoke anymore.... I love the intensity and lenght of the cookies high but i miss the taste... :)

I hear you on the taste Sticky. I saved my last jar a long time by just using it to flavor other weed.:peacock:

Hello my friends ! :)

This morning i took a good bong bowl to sample the slim pheno and, like for the fat one, it was a very pleasant experience... ;)

Despite the differences between the 2 phenos, the type of high is very similar: uplifting/energizing with some euphoria and a glowing love feeling.

The taste isn't as pronounced as the fat pheno's. It could be because this trait expresses itself towards the full ripeness for the slim one.
The high lasted about 2 hours and the landing was a bit heavier but don't forget these poor girls took 3 weeks of very bad weather prior to being cut just before week 6 of flo, and that the drying has been sped up to avoid mold spreading.

There's no doubt that in more favorable conditions both phenos would have performed much better. That's why this isn't a real smoke report but just the sharing of my first impressions.

To be honest though, when i look at the nugs i think highly possible that several factors could hasten the ripeness at our latitude in this season...

BH slim pheno early buds with lost seed from the bottom branches light pollination... :)

Slim pheno bud left, fat one right. Sorry for the blurriness...

I'm not totally sure it would have been beneficial to let the plants go 2 more weeks. With a better weather, one more would have been perfect for the kind of high i'm looking for.

Hopefully, these girls will have more luck with the weather... ;-)

While enjoying the high taking me over this morning, i couldn't help feeling surges of gratitude for our friends at Ace. Many thanks again to them for allowing us to discover these gems :)

Looking great Sticky Sat, hope you can bring them to the finish line.

Im growing Bangi Haze outdoors this year at 42° N. Im hoping they dont go into late october/november as my weather isn't plant friendly that late into the year.

Hi Boogieman,

Bangi Haze has been grown with great success around 43ºN latitude in rainy and cold climates.

Good luck with your Bangi Hazes this season :)

Hi ThaiBliss,

Looking forward to know your opinion about the new Congo #3 x Bangi Haze #29 fem hybrid, hopefully this mostly congolese hybrid works well (along with your other Bangi Haze hybrids) for your breeding projects, providing the kind of high you are seeking in your quest of the trip weed! ;)

Hi Sticky,

I'm very sorry to hear that 3 weeks of continuous bad weather ruined the last flowering stage of your Bangi Hazes :(

Bangi Haze is quite mold resistant against rain and wet conditions but i think the main problem in your case was the damage done by bugs ... once worms and other pests are established inside the formed flowers is difficult to stop the mold infection they produce with their secretions and excretions. Have you consider to use bacillus thuringiensis to kill worms in the wettest chapters of your climate ? Maybe it won't fully solve the problem but would be a good palliative.

Anyway, i'm quite surprised you harvested such nice looking flowers after just 5 weeks of flowering, they look dense and resinous for such an early harvest, glad they contain nice terpenes and yet can provide a desirable high despite they are not fully developed. Usually fastest Bangi Hazes need at least 8-9 weeks of proper flowering to reach their peak of maturity.

Guess in your extreme tropical climate the best choice is to grow also extreme tropical sativas with fluffier flowers like Oldimter's haze, these kind of extreme tropical sativas very rarely get mold with rains and wet conditions and in case of worm attack the damage is usually located just in a few flowers and doesn't expand so easily to the flowers nearby. Obviously the yield with very extreme tropical sativas will be low and the harvest will take much longer, but it's nearly impossible to produce fast flowering strains (even sativas) with hard dense buds that will be immune to the wettest conditions of a tropical climate.

I think is also wise to stick with selected clones (like your O mother) which have proven year after year to work well in your specific climate, and then combine other strains of your taste with these selected clones to hopefully develop new lines that will be adapted to your outdoor conditions. Hopefully your O x Bangi haze hybrid has the potential to follow this breeding path.

Hi Dubi,

Thanks for your kind words my friend ! :)
The bugs attacks on this run were the worse we ever had to this day, and there's no doubt in my mind they were responsible for the mold starting. The weather made it worse not only because of the very high rh but also because the plants being protected from the rains, all the bugs were comfortable there too... Yes i use BT. As you said, it doesn't fully solve the problem but it sure helps.
What doesn't is that one of my neighbor is growing vegetables and sprays them with chemicals twice a week... He's about 200 m away but i'm sure his treatments are responsible for the noticeable increase in bugs number, activity, and resistance...

I don't have the slightest regret to have chosen the Bangi Haze for my breeding project and i'm really thankful to Luis for having advised me so well :) Despite the early harvest, the kind of high is exactly the one i love and i can't wait to sample properly finished and cured buds... ;)

I'm going to keep breeding the BH for as long as it's gonna take to acclimatized her to my place. Having the O at hand should definitely help to achieve that, providing global warming allows it... :)

Finding such satisfactions in the BH won't help me stop dreaming about growing all your great sativa strains though... ;)
