I have 6 going.
Calling them JamJam, but more of a nickname since I didn't breed it I shouldn't be naming it obviously.
Missed one in the photos but you get the idea

So the circle is round again.
Couldn't get the info from the Kwik site. So didn't mention it, as I was not sure. But came across the same info several times on the forum already yes.
Anyway seem like a good one if you are looking for a traditional Jamacain NLD strain.

Lovely! Man small world I guess.
If your referring to the white spots on the leaves in the pictures that's residual sulphur. If your referring to something else I missed or didn't see please let me know

No worries, I appreciate the concern. I'd much rather have ya say something and be mistaken than be silent but right!
My only complaint with sulphur for ipm is it looks bad on the leaves. It is what it is tho
That's from my family's farm. I got to see the ship and the land in person. There's many mounds they chose not to dig up, tooView attachment 19071670
Here are 4 seeds and 6 vials of "plant material" from the Oseberg viking grave, dated 834, marked Cannabis sativa, kept at the University of Oslo, Archeological dep. It was found 1904 in the Oseberg ship grave.

This is one of a multiple of cannabis seed and pollen accessions found in viking graves and settlements in Scandinavia. For a long time, this was presented as seeds only, assumed for fibre or food. But, you don't carry "plant material" for food or fibre, do you? Interestingly, the woman carrying the pouch of seeds and "plant material" - cannabis - , had several painful ailments, like arthitis and Norwegian sources says cancer. So archeologist now believes it was for medicinal purposes. The list of other gravegoods is extensive, in the ship there were all the most important objects you might need to settle and start a new life.

Kvinnene i Oseberggrava - Vikingtidsmuseet
I år 834 døydde to heilt spesielle kvinner, dei blei heidra med ei storslått gravlegging.www-vikingtidsmuseet-no.translate.goog
In the grave, skeletons of two women were found. One presumed to be a queen, the other there are more uncertain theories. "According to Per Holck of the University of Oslo, the younger woman's mitochondrial haplogroup was discovered to be U7.[13] Her direct maternal ancestors came to Norway from the Pontic littoral, probably Iran.[14]"
(This has not been confirmed yet.)
So perhaps what the vikings grew were Iranian landraces? Turkish? It seems medicinal cannabis in Norway has a very, very long history! 1.200 years!

The Oseberg ship.
How nice
. The farm certainly has the longest history for growing hemp, amazing."From the 13th century, the state collected tithes from hemp cultivation, and from the sixteenth century we have duties on the state's income from hemp cultivation in Vestfold. In recent times, all Norwegian farms of any size have had their own hemp farm, often near the manure cellar. There are accounts of hemp cultivation as far north as Velfjord. Both in Gudbrandsdalen, Orkdal and Gauldal, hemp was used as a textile fiber, along the coast it was primarily raw material for string, rope and, not least, fishing nets. It seems that hemp cultivation has been more widespread inland than along the coast, despite the fact that the coastal people have benefited far more from hemp for fishing and boating.
Hemp has also been used as a medicinal herb, especially for worm bites, but also for eye diseases and "heat in the heart"."

So, not only non-drug hemp. The strains must be have been autos, and drug plants mixed with hemp. The story of the woman getting intoxicated from "rusking" hemp is interesting, if not true. "Rusking" originally ment pulling males from the ground with the roots. (The expression to "rusk" is still in use in Norwegian, for me it means "to pull something fast and hard".) https://naob.no/søk?q=røske
Would have been interesting to grow some old Viking strains...
This is not Lambs Bread, fyi. Just a line I collected in Jamaica years ago. Usually, this line has strong sour mango, pineapple, loud spicy funk. This still has that when you run the resin, but from a few feet away and an up close sniff it's pure cat piss. Eye watering cat piss. That's new.

Lambread, the small plant on the right is a male red stem with the big female red stem on the left (the flowering dark green plant at the bottom is a zamal/malawi/Nevil Haze/C99/pure power plant cross. The other pic is the Lambsbread green stem. I have never encountered a more resistant plant than the Lambsbread. The other plants are all greatly affected by powdery mildew while the Lambsbread- especially the green stem- isn't at all. The green stem was poorly transplanted in the ground and 90% of the roots were ripped. It didn't care at all. This if from the Vibes Collective via Richard Williams. The red stem female will be ripe by mid/end October (due to fully seeding...only way to finish these outdoors in Toronto) but the green stem was an even later flowerer so it will have fewer seeds. I'll be able to trade some redstem Lambsbread. The male used has extremely narrow leaves and only produced red stems later in life.

Does anyone else know why Kwik/RSC would rename this? Or more accurately not name it? Are they trying not to give credit where it's due?
I know it's not that important, but for posterity sake I am curious.
I also recall reading Blue Mountain has a hybridized faster flower version and a non/pre hybridization long flower version. Safe to assume this used the latter? Or not necessarily?
Thanks everyone for your contributions to this thread. Easily in my top 5 favorite threads on here.

Wow !! Interested in them seeds bro. Respect
I'd be happy to share some of mine, if you like. It's a pretty true breeding inbred line, and reminds me a LOT of the Lambsbread in this thread. Both look, leaf shape, colors, and at least as described here, the smell. It's not a pure sativa, but definitely a strong sativa lean to it. She actually pretty much finishes for me here in Michigan too, which is nice.
