Hawaiian Sativa Grow ( Federation Seed Co. )
- Thread starter Pineapple_Punch
- Start date
Greetings,
I'm late to the show, but I'm now subbed. First of all, by all appearances, Pineapple Punch did a great job.
I have grown this strain before, long ago, but I may not have done it justice. I don't remember it being very strong. I have since learned to let sativas ripen more fully. I've seen dramatic differences in potency in the last two weeks of flowering. I don't remember the piney and incense aromas, only the menthol and a touch of lemon. You might have brought out the best of your seeds.
I wish I could go back in time and save those seeds. How often have I said that?! The good news is that a friend recently gave me some seeds that were crossed to this line. This is the reason I looked for and found this thread. Another friend promised me some seeds of Fett's 303, which is rumored to be a cross between Hawaiian and Papua New Guinea Gold. If all comes to fruition, I might have the makings of a good line with parents from each.
A year or two ago I met an old time grower from Hawaii. Of course, I asked about the old school Hawaiian before indica strains were introduced. He told me that Hawaiian genetics were mostly S.E. Asian strains, Thai and Cambodian, along with African. He got a gleam in his eye when calling out Swazi in particular.
Anyway, thanks for suffering me spouting off on what little I've learned about Hawaiian genetics. Once again, I'm admiring your fine work as I drool at the very Thai-like leaf shapes and resinous buds. I'm very much looking forward to your smoke reports.
One more thing. I've recently learned that some sativa genetics benefit greatly from a long cure. The potency can actually increase with age. I hope you stash away some buds and give a second report after a 6 to 9 month cure.

High ThaiBliss, thank you for stopping by!
Yes to this Time it isn't as strong that it will destroy you, but i read that the Hawaiian Sativa needs a good cure to release her full Potential, like you mentioned in your Post. I've tested a small bud which i dried bone dry and smoked in my Vaporizer, and that was a very strong head high which put a big Grin on my Face. (it's a creeper high) The Plant i showed the most in this Thread is a very Mexican dominant phenotype i think (have 2 of them in 7 Girls), the Seeds of this pheno has a different Color compared to the more S.E Asian phenos. It's a dark brown with no mottling but with the bigness of the S.E Asian Phenos, which are big with little tiger stripes.
To the smell: They all have some kind of a menthol smell, the stronger i rub the resin between my fingers the more it reminds me to the Vicks Vaporub smell of my Childhood, some Plants stronger than the other. The Incensce smell on the Mexican Phenos is very strong, to a point where it is almost disgusting for people who don't like that kind of smell.
They're also very sweet and spicy to the same time with citrus and other fruity undertones, can tell more when it's dry and cured.I wanna say that that Mexican and S.E Asian thing is just a thought and feeling by me, don't see it as proof cause im no Sativa specialist! But i think there is a nice chunky mexican lady or boy like vermontmans Oaxaca 79 in this strain or variety, where the relatively fast flowering time comes from!
So yeah, hope to be able to hold a good amount of weed for a long cure.
P.S: You can post some infos to your Hawaiian Sativa cross!

Did you flush her for 3 weeks like they recommended?
Here's the official description.
Breeder's Description - 'Hawaiian Sativa'
Sativa.
The Hawaiian is a pure sativa originating from the big Island of Mauna Kea. It's been bred and stabilized for more
than 15 years on Vancouver Island. Sugary with crystal, it has a very distinctive citrus odor and menthol flavor
that tingles the taste buds and tickles the brain. Tall vigorous growth with few branches, classic cactus shape.
Extreme elongation in the first two weeks of flowering with tufts of long thin hairs developing into long sticky
spear buds which thicken up after the sixth or seventh week. The lemon flavor intensifies when flushed for a
long time (3 weeks) with straight water. Very energetic and up high, great to smoke during the day for an
active lifestyle.
Height 8 feet
Flowering time 10-12 weeks.
Yield 8 oz full size, 3/4oz in a 2 gal pot.
Harvest outdoor Nov 1 to forever.

Hello, i flushed her for around 2 Weeks! Let's see how the citrus smell will come out with the cure.
Im curious what will happen when crossing her to a Jacks Cleaner 2, could give a interesting cross with a ultra lemon incense smell.

Yes i already made a lot of Seeds, BUT i can't give them out in a Pure form. The Seeds were a Gift from a Friend, and i had to promise to not give them out Pure.
Sounds good, hope they turns out good for you!
Thank you Guys!
Nice looking buds. Aloha DB
Thank you everybody, a smoke report will come soon!
