heres some shots of BillyGoats Thai offerin at 45days. in the last week the bud is thickenin, braided frosty shoots pushin out all over the bud. stem rubs have spicey dark semi sweet aromas, different then anything ive tried, so im thinkin its the choco aromas gettin goin. all the plants have it just at varyin degrees. the OE seems to be stronger.

have four females, the two tight plants up first and one of the stretchier plants last.

kept three males, two stout, one leggy.

hey BG, have a chocolate thai cut commin from the virtual world, you think your cut leaked out? could be a DNA plant to, you heard any onit?

Afternoon CBF, glad to see your girl doing so well. Love the thread at the other location. Man, those plants are rockin for sure. I knew they would get alittle out of controll. They tend to grow through the roof if not watched. If your getting a smell that is kind of off and can't figure it out. It should be the chocolate pheno. That is what the mother plant does before switching over to the full on chocolate smell. One day it will be a smell that you can't figure out and then in the morning. BAM, Chocolate. As for my mother plant leaking on to the boards and grow community. It's got to be the DNA cut. There's no way it would make it's way out of my safe locations. All my parent plants are coded and no one knows what the hell they are. Now, i know that the people that are holding them. Are growing them and doing well. Yes, they know they have a chocolate plant that is dangerourly strong, but they have no idea it's of my seed collection. So, sorry she's not out in the world as of yet. I will say this and i totally mean it. I will at some point and time. I will share her with other's and they can do with her as they please. They will see for themselves at how dangerous this girl truely is. Well, don't want to burn up your thread. Thanks againf for the pictures and the grow. Means the world to me that you are growing these seeds and sharing your results, good or bad. Thank you
take care,
BG

PS, Nice to see baccas125 and Teresa around. Thanks for stopping by

WOW CBF, that girl is looking awesome. Looks like she's going to yield pretty nicely also. So, what type of smells are the plants putting off? I bet there are all different types of smell in that bunch. Great job as always and can't wait to see them in another month or so.

hey all thanks for stoppin in, i been growin a lot of landrace sativas and such for a year or better now, and this offerin is kickin ass compared to most all of um, easy grower, and the bud is pretty tight, not really loose at all.

aromas are all over the place right now, they all were smellin good, a dark sweet aroma, and this week im gettin fruity tones, and i swear coffee. they still have 5 to 7 weeks left im sure.

next post ill get all 4 girls in for a show

Take care,

Great pictures cbf. I don't want anyone to get the impression that I'm doubting that this strain is a thai because I'm not. I'm just asking a question. Could anyone explain to me why the modern thais look so much different compared to what they used to? The only one I've seen pictures of that really makes me nostalgic are the rodwal thais and to some degree certain phenos of the greengenes cherry bomb. The modern ones resemble what I always though were combodian or vietnamese but with slightly wider leaves and more even maturation or a haze. Until relatively recently the thais that I'd grown matured terribly slowly and unevenly. You could pick the bottom half of each flower around 14 weeks and keep growing more flowers out of the ends of the old flowers. They had huge calyxes 1-2 cm long that would grow in strands that clustered together to make a flower similar to some kali mist phenos. This is the whole reason thai bud came in thai stick form because the flowers were loose no matter how intense the light they received was. The highland varieties produced more of a dense flower and had some resemblance to the modern thais but still the strandiness would show up producing thin flexible stems with thinly spaced calyxes running the length. Often these shoots would come out of the highland varieties right before they'd mature. They also had very narrow leaves that were the same width throughout the length of the leaf not getting wider in the middle with the coursest serrations of any variety that actually made up most of the leaf width. The leaves had many leaflets that really did resemble alligator tails. Many varieties had stems the were kind of rectangular with really uneven branching. Also unlike most varieties the branches on most thais used to not come out at the same spot as the leaves sometimes coming out 1/2" above the leaf. Most were also not that unruly for height being easily controlled in a greenhouse at 3-4 ft just sometimes being hard to grow after 5-6 months of multi harvesting off of the same vegetative growth. Also I always thought chocolate was in reference to the color not the flavor.

I'm not proclaiming to be the most knowledgable person on this subject. Its just something I've been wondering about.

zamalito.......i look at the plants and i dont see um as bein a landrace thai. theres work been done on this line, by a grower such as ourselves, or natives of thailand.

the last plant shown, the leaf appears a bit wide to me as well, the other female with the same growth profile, has the thinner leaf on it, and the 2 stretchy plants appear the same, one with wider leaf the other with the thinner more sativa leaf.

im been runnin different thai, and crosses since the beginnin of the year, and dont think any so far were straight thai. I ran some of MrGs cherry bomb awhile back, and i know what your talkin about with the runnin buds, his offerin was very thai like.most all the sativa ive run are like that, airy viney calyx. big buds but real fluffy.

also you expect some stretch, in this offerin, there are tight noded short stocky plants, easy to control indoors. my spot is only 4ft, and most any sativa will over grow it in the flower stretch, as you can see the last pics are of a 18 inch to 20 inch plant. the two lanky plants stretched double or more,

so i dont know for sure myself, i do know Dalat, haze, and a columbian i have stretch to no end, they keep growin stretchin all through the bud cycle. they never settle and just bud. pamnama red was the same, just keep growin even in bud.

Morning, to answer your question some. As for the source of these seeds. A person went to Thailand and has been going there for vacation for awhile. Seeds where gathered and then sent back to the USA. Once seeds where in the USA. A friend known as Top9 grew them out and looked for a good Male and Female. Ones that did not show any hemi's in them, but we all know how hemi's can pop up in these plants. Seeds where made and then sent to me. I then did my run of plants and looked for the best male and female in the bunch i had and then made my batch of seeds Now, for what is in them from the local growers. I have no clue to what they where or are growing over there in Thailand. They could be doing what alot are doing these days. crossing for a better yield. All i can say, is that these seeds are from Thailand and to me. That is pure as your going to get these days. Now, as to the type of genes of the days passed. I'm sure they have changed some and are still around. Glad to see many people sharing their info with these plants. I still have seeds from Gypsy's trip to Thailand. Those where called "Wild Thai" because Gypsy didn't know how much the local worked them out, but you can bet you'll see them here in a killer thread.
Take care all,
BG

[Guest]

hey BG, just crawled outta the grow, and the stretchyest of the bunch is sproutin bananas right at the very top of the buds, seen a few last week and picked um off, but this amm, there on most all the bud, sproutin right at the very tip of the bud.

ill chop tonite right as the light comes on. have other stuff in there and dont wanna mess with the plant. alot of the thai ive run this year, had problems, autoflowerin and late bananas. its just the nature of the beast, and anyone wantin to work with Thai i wish um good luck.
