Was wondering the difference in smoke and high in a long flowering sativa (11 weeks n up) vs one that flowers relatively shorter (9-11 weeks). Is it worth it for the extra weeks of flower?

What people dont really consider is that the sativas that take longer to flower are the ones that put on the most biomass during flowering.

So for example, you can veg C99 for five weeks and flower for nine weeks for a total of fourteen weeks of growth, or you can grow a more pure landrace type with zero veg time and flower for 14 weeks. You end up with similar sized plants and similar yields.

Those that have puffed a landrace Thai know that there is hardly a comparison in potency. Don't get me wrong, I think the aforementioned short flowering sativas are great strains, but my S.African PowerPlant x [O.Haze X Thai] will take you to the moon and change your mothafucking life.

I think the word haze came from the effects of the long flowering sats, or was it acid?
purple haze oh yeah

to all those who like the long flowering sativas- whats makes it better? I dont think Ive ever smoked a plant that took longer then 10 weeks to flower....

Long flowering sativas are staggeringly potent(four hits lasts four hours) and somewhat psychedelic in effect. Many have no ceiling due to a high content of THCV.

Ive never smoked weeds with any psychedelic effects.... by more potent do you mean a different high? I smoke a lot of hash and usually the hash is more potent than any buds, so if I made hash with a shorter flowering sativa would it be the same as smoking a long flowering sativa? Ive never smoked any bud without a ceiling either, I feal like I can only get so high. Im trying to understand the difference in the highs, if its worth it I might try one of these long flowering sativas...

Have you ever taken mushrooms? Its kind of like taking a half dose of mushrooms and smoking a fat bowl of something heady and strong. I'm not saying that you actually hallucinate, but your paradigm is totally warped. You can still function ok though, depending on how much you consume.

In my experience, no. With a LF Sat you are working with a more complex cannabinoid profile which cannot be replicated by simply making a concentrate from SF Sats.

The only way you are going to know is if you try for yourself... I have a feeling you are going to try growing one some day.
 
Hi FoCO

Can i ask please, do you think longer flowering sats have more polymers that might be psychoactive or just a larger confused puddle of THC breakdown molecules

What about blue light and uvb for them?
 
With so many great fast finishers: SAGE 8-9 weeks, C99 6-8 weeks, SSSDH 9-11 weeks, Satori 9-10 weeks, + many more... I'll go with the short flowering because I don't see the point in waiting so long when you can get the goods much earlier

Because you can't get the goods in a shorter period. Nature doesn't let you. A real long flowering Sativa can take you places none of those hybrids can. It is all about ceiling and the Indicas used in those crosses impart a definite ceiling. Yes those crosses can give a very up and even somewhat phychadelic high, but they all have either a narcotic or paranoid edge to them which IMO is unavoidable in short flowering Sativas.

Do a search on THCV and see what you turn up.

I use lots of blue spectrum when flowering all my plants. You get a higher quality product, but less of it... I'm not a believer in UVB.

I think Ima haveta try one of these long flowering sativas.... Damn, Im in cali, one of the world weed capitals, and theres NO clones floating around that flower longer than 10 weeks... Ima haveta find some seeds I guess. Which seed company has the best long flower sativas? I was thinkin maybe an african strain, wutchall think for that crazy only-in-long-flowering-high Im lookin for?

ima tell you what i tell every1 else.
it ain't shit if it doesn't go at least 12 weeks.
words to live by.

sure a 8 week indy is fast, but the high leaves to quick.
the longer flowering sats (100+ days) will have you high as a giraffe's ass for hours.
not stoned, HIGH!
big difference.

Hi Foco

I am ok with THCv but unsure about cannabinoid polymers (CBG etc) I am also interested in other cannabinoids that could only be synthesized through time in long flowering sativas, what medical properties is there?

Thanks for the info though, interested in all data you could give me on blue lights though, (when after stretch, intestity, wavelength etc) please. Thank you for your time

interesting, so the longer the flowering time the more yield, if veg time is the same?
