Just got some Mountain Gold for next year. In terms of growth habit, do the bottom branches grow from the beginning of growth, or do they hold tight till a meter up like most Purple Satellite?
Purple sat is our go to at the moment. Starting to get a handle on calyx size, resin size and aromas, #3 out of 4 has a proper night time effect - largest calyx and resin, most low end aromas. The smallest resin and thinnest calyx, with most of that 'effervescent' high note aromas is our daytime pheno, wears off easy. So happy to find a real Septoria resistant winner. I'll post that info on that thread.

Mandala have just out a Satori x Mountain Gold, hadn't heard of Satori before, she looks and sounds nice.

You have spread your seeds far and wide, bringing love to many a heart, thanks

Always love to hear good reports, I have grown Mountain Gold as big bushes and as single stalked smaller plants mine finished outside by end of Sept to the second week Oct at 42 degrees North. I think the will grow bushier than Purple Satellite, but I always pinch to force them out. Mountain Gold is also very capable of making really massive buds. Both the Oaxacan and the Hawaiian will do so but the Oaxacan will add more density.
Thank you for your kind words.
Definitely looking forward to your future posts.
CHEERS!

With bulk like that, you must have a lot of “friends” in both places! Yozzers!
Why thank you Mr Pistil!
Most people associate Sativa strains with thin and wispy, but when I got My Oaxacan bag weed back in 1978 They were quite large lightly seeded spears.
I picked every seed and into the garden they went that next Spring but I had started them under fluorecsent lights but Into the garden they finally went. I learned sexing plants through High Times Magazine and a Marijuana growers guide book that I bought at a head shop when I was 17. Any way back then my gardens were carved out of clearings in the forest, this one garden was between north and south bound lanes on the interstate, with a stream that ran under the highway through a large culvert. I put the well grown Oaxacan Gold seedlings in the back of a large hand tilled bed amended heavily with manure and chicken compost, The front of the bed was some locally available Indica that finished at the end of Sept. The Oaxacan towards the back because they were already taller, and then the Oaxacan Gold towered, way over everything there. I let them run until mid Oct where the Oax was the only greenery in yellowing brown Fall landscape, The plants got slammed with Fall rains, But not a stitch of mold. The Oax plants finished at about 9 feet tall by mid Oct and the buds were bigger than as mans arm. Thanks to HT Mag and my grow guide I learned and pollinated one large bud on each of about 12 plants with pollen I carried in, in a baby food jar, from several males I kept in pots back home. I could never imagine growing bigger buds of that quality covered in crystal and smelling like a sweet balsam Christmas tree farm. That was in 1979. I have kept her going since then.
This one has made a lot of people laugh to the point of tears over the many years.

Nice story! I had a similar exp. in '72. I had a green thumb for veggies, but didn't know wtf I was doing with weed! My crop was in the back of our large veg. garden. One memory that stands out is how f'ing green they were when everything else was brown! They were 6-7' tall and I thought for sure that the neighbors would see them and squeal!

I recently picked up a Zapotec S1 (Highland Oaxacan Gold x Santa Marta Colombian Gold) and Oaxacan S1 (from the desc. - "Gifted from a friend of a friend who worked in Oaxaca on an energy lease. Amazing aromas of cedar, mint, pine, incense, citrus, floral.) from Colorado Sativas. Familiar with CS? Can't run them until fall, but looking forward to it.

I've got one of your Zacatecas Tributes going now. I'll shoot a pic in day or two.

Found some time this afternoon. Seeds popped 12/9. Into 1gal 12/26. Culled a male on 1/7. Flipped Jan 8. Tp'ed to 5gal on 1/12.

First pic taken on 1/10, Next 2 today. Note the double serration in the last pic. Is that typical for the ZT?
