Salutations, vermontman. I'm enjoying growing PS! Can you, and anyone else who has grown PS F2, describe the phenological variability, or any other phenotypic insights? Have you experimented with stabilizing the cross into a variety? (Or is there any trait you'd like to fix?). I've got seeds I collected from the Gabon/RDC border. I never saw the plants (flower looked like brick weed of yester year), but I assume they are completely inappropriate for growing outside in Boulder. But the psychotropic effect was unlike any I have ever experienced: a sharp attenuation of the senses, not at all "trip weed”. If administered blind, I'm not sure I would even identify it as Cannabis. I'd say "unknown stimulant of nobel strength and character." I like the idea of crossing it with an early flowering sativa if it's effect could be preserved. PS unless inbred for 4+ generations, I'd guess would throw too much genetic diversity into the mix for an inexperienced breeder to make any progress with. What do you think? Any of the PS parentals commercially available, or is there another IBL variety that might be appropriate for me to experiment with? There's no way I'm going to put the work in to breed it pure into something that works in Colorado if it behaves as I imagine. I would guess that would take 15+ years, the ability to grow out thousands, and suerte. I haven't tried any of the commercially available central African strains. Anything match my description? I've got Bangai Haze growing now, but my guess is it gets one more high-- than for lack of a better word--hightened.
Hey buddy sorry been crazy here ready to move I have seen people post on I think it is the the Purple satellite thread that some f2s have been produced by some growers and they are very stable from what I have heard, But I have not done so myself.
I would think anything you cross to Satellite will shorten the flowering period, would be my best guess.
