I highly doubt it but just my opinion. Don't get me wrong it's about as a pure and heirloomy Sativa as one can expect to get these days but I find it hard to believe that someone had the smarts to successfully store seed from 30+ years ago. There just wasn't enough info out there at the time about how to suitably store seeds for decades.
Possibly it was originally grown in '72 and open pollinated in a Colombian field each year with little selection and without contamination and collected and stored maybe in the 80's sometime?
one, if you need more have more stored genetics in the central americans, these are fresh dried in containers have plenty friend, p eace , god bless in these difficult times, mike teaSo glad mike is running them. I do not have the space indoors and have questions about my new neighbors, so no outside grow this year for me.
I still have eleven seeds but time will eventually take its toll on viability. Im keeping them in a dark fridge double pqckaged with gel packs, my freezer is an auto defrost. I heard that was a nono for seed storage? So im doing the best i know how to keep them safe. Would it be a good idea to vacuum seal the seeds before they get any older? They are in original packaging now, then in a plastic box, with alid with a gel packs
Nexus7, I don't remember the source of your CG ?
I don't have any double serration on my USC CG72.
So how many are you growing and what types are you getting? Anything that resembles mine?
My 5 CG72s are about 2 weeks old now. I transplanted them into slightly larger containers (solo party cups) which they'll be in temporarilly while I await gender testing results from Phylos.
These are my first tropical landrace sativas and these plants were starting to look sad. I upgraded to a higher quality soil for them and turned on my second 100wt COB LED. So, now they are under 2 Optic 1XLs (100watts each) which are 3500k. I think they will be much happier. I also extended the photoperiod from 16 hours to 18 hours. What photoperiod do you folks prefer for these to veg?
They're an authorized re-seller.
What is the source of the ones you are growing?
Santa Marta natural photoperiod goes from 12.5-11.5 hours
If grown indoors I like a 14/10 period veg for SM strains and 11/13 for flowering, regardless if it is 72' from JGL or repro from his seeds or 80' or whatever yearful number as long as it is a Santa Marta strain from the 20th century
I hope it helps
I bought mine from regseeds. I havent ran any yet, i ordered twenty Seeds, two twelve packs. Planned to Run outside but new neighbors moving in next door changes that. We are legal and all but plants like that attract the wrong type of attention...and you know those pesky plant limits
My indoor grow is filled with hashplant clones at the moment.
Thats why i sent some to mike. He has several generations of wos columbian under his belt.
