I believe they are in the UK
That’s incorrect
The postage on the mailer indicates Sweden



As I mentioned to @Piff_cat their website is awesome and descriptions of strains and genetics are top level. I’m following on IG as well and they stress transparency regarding the business model.
Very nice customer service and talked me off the edge regarding shipping.
I’ll be interested to read your take should you post anything here

From my order email:

Your pack went out today. Please let us know when they arrive.



We currently send regular airmail as we are finding it's the fastest way (tracked is much slower). Your beans are 100% guaranteed so if they do not arrive for any reason we will replace them.

FWIW

We're English, but our friend D who does our design work sometimes sends packs out for us. We mail from mainland EU when we need to, so folk in Europe don't need to pay customs.

Couple Cambodian #1 (Green) sleeping at night, still quite perky for middle of evening I must say, cool in there too upper 50’s F

those leaves bring back memories of the the distant past led not sure what of ,but they look good lol

Cambodian #1 / Gold / Mutant - there’s two plants growing here from its initial selfing I did, the seeds made first time didn’t have the best strike rates so I was selfing these again to make hopefully better quality S2, I can see the arms turning I sprayed perfectly but also found seeds forming on them & other plants in there way to far along to be anything I did… hmmmm…

The only other plants I’ve seen to do this are Laotian, they form single full male arm branches seemingly overnight with pollen ready to drop, it’s a sight to see and IMO an extreme SE Asian survival mechanism. I’ve grown rare sativas from every corner of the world and the only ones to do this are SE Asians…

^^ I’ve documented them forming in Vientiane in days, 16-18” arm, all male flowers ready to drop… The growth rate & speed is unbelievable but it happens, my guess that’s exactly what happened above & I missed it.

Sometimes you’ve just gotta accept the good with the bad, IME you remove that arm and the plants have been otherwise good to go (it doesn’t toss much pollen so not many seeds anyhow) and will stay female till the end - it kinda lends itself to the SE Asian Genetic bucket theory determining sex that’s been mentioned elsewhere in this forum

SE Asian Landrace genetics, wild indeed but you’ve gotta keep it real to get the special trippy stuff !

Led05, I hope you dont mind
I have seen this trait in Manipuri, Highland Laos #1 both from RSC, GN Luang Prabang, Northern Thailand 2008. In hybrids I have seen this trait in Thaidelica and Zamaldelica
I grew 8 seeds done this way, accidental pollination in just 24 hours from a female forming a male branch in 24 hs. It was a Seedsman Hz x Northern Thai
Cant say it is a test but for me it worked as such. I grew them outdoors, got 4 boys and 4 girls. Just one of the boys grew a few pistils, all the rest was sexually firm

I tried removing those male branches in some of my plants like GN Luang Prabang but it kept throwing new branches almost twice a week and removing them was a pain. After that trial I just cull the plants showing this trait

The % of this trait happening outdoors compared with indoors is a lot lower. Outdoors I get firm females and firm males. Indoors I never saw a firm male and females went intersex.
Some of the males grow a few pistils at the tip of the branch outdoors. But indoors this same male grows a lot of pistils

I have seen this trait happening beginning of flowering through mid flowering. I never saw it happening at the end of flowering

11/25/23 Seed went from fridge right to soil

Cambodian #1 - First seed from one Male arm is ripe but arms I flipped are just dumping pollen right now, this room is packed with Fem seed forming, I’m gonna let them all mature then call it a wrap on seeds for awhile, it’s ridiculous how many I have. I couldn’t even get rid of them all if I started a company selling them $1-3 a pop, there are millions, it’s crazy my fridge - lol

Cambodian #1

Few Arms I turned

She’s just wild, some arms are flowers, some Pearls & some a blend of both

Cambodian 1 is back right, I kept them smaller this time, only 5-6’ range

Quintessential SE Asian, these are 87.5% Cambodian/Laos & 12.5% Gambian; I call them Gambodian & these seeds are from my favorite female out of many buckets

Large fans for very young plants, extreme sativa branching

Great open structural spacing

uhuh

awaiting more root growth for transplant divide..

mostly cambo /laos

doing for the Team and hopefully my head

thanks ledo5 and satva

my addition to then work at this point,,done an few years of work on these

and


NFSB[not from seed bank]

the start of

cambo/laos early photo and cambo/laos auto

would like northern outdoor and a midsize auto..

yeah .....we’ll see..


24hrs on will go down to 18..we’ll see whats on for selection

Excellent thread, I just came across it.

I may have some SEA to share on here.

Thx brother

And Speaking of…My creations I’ve been working on a handful of years, getting closer to my goals

And newest batch from Laredo / Lindau- KKTS (still waiting to hear back what that is) - definitely more broad leafed than I expected but everything else I’m getting off these is consistent with other Laotian I’ve grown - structure, terps, growth habit, vigor….

i luv slender leaves...

These are 3 Northcoast Cambodian Red plants with a couple Northcoast Acapulco Gold with blue tape to the left. Early smoking of fan leaves has been real good. Leaves are not real thin but the high seems on point.

Up and can get trippy even with just the fans. One of the AG I grew before got me a high not seen in 50 years. Ego death or close to it. I am trying to find it again.

Sorry for the tangle of plants but that is how I can make the most of the space I have. Bending them over so they stay under 18 inches tall. I just have some 18 watt LED bulbs over the plants. Use a splitter and 2 to a light. If the plants are kept short, it is enough.

I have those plants at around a foot height right now. I have to go in and bend them about every day. Tying them down did not work out for me. I have broken quite a few stems, hehe. Mostly I can tape them up and they keep going.

The germination rate on the Cambodian was terrible. I had to get replacement freebies from Northcoast in order to have even 5 plants now. I have a couple others in another spot.

When you brake & tie down try to use one finger at point your bending to support the stem & brake very slowly, you’ll see the plant start secreting liquid in droplets at the brake, you’ve done enough by this point, indoor plants are much easier to bend & brake than outdoor, the outdoor ones get so tough they just snap, indoors have a lot of give. It also helps to do it a few hours after watering, they will be more nimble.

I agree - Leaf morphology is just one tell of a plants origins, I’ve seen rather broad leafed plants otherwise have full on sativa characteristics, definitely don’t judge that book by its cover…Leaf morphology also depends quite a bit on light intensity, humidity & airflow - transpiration & VPD matters effectively dictate it more than one may expect outside the driving genetics of course

PS: I can’t believe your smoking fans on a veg plant…. And here I thought I was committing when sniffing male pollen - haha !

@led05 , I've been using this same break technique for years. Using the finger to brace against the stem is the best way to ensure that the stem doesn't snap, but instead pinches. I've also successfully used scotch tape wrapped the break area to revive stems that looked like they were gonna die. Kinda like a splint.
