Okay i think it's the Montego Bay Skunk that has hijacked the Green longer flo pure sat theory.
Yes purple often pass fruitiness, our Lambsbread and my Zamala is good example!

Zambaz repro F2
(Zambian Cooper x Swazi Red)
Difficult reproduction with low germ rate and unfortunately several mutants out of the race!
I finally selected only 2 females x 1 male, one mom is classic spicy peppery but with luck this female seems to be special with a great candy fruity mix aroma coming, exactly the smell of candy necklaces.
Quite surprised for this kind of Afro cross that I thought to produce more metallic, earthy and dark terps. Will see the original cooper red hope for the next F3 work i think but i’m really curious and glad to separate this Gold fruity type turn of its F2.
Btw the Mozambique triple cross project is canceled because sadly not a single seed of two SOA packs wanted to germinate!

Nice mix man, there is a member here that is trying the same thing with Mozambique plus a few others from Malberry seeds, fingers crossed for a few germination's I will give him a buzz and see how he going with them.Btw the Mozambique triple cross project is canceled because sadly not a single seed of two SOA packs wanted to germinate!
Unfortunately both my efforts and that of the other person I mentioned had zero germination the seeds were too old.Vibes @Tangwena i look forward some Moz, mostly should be Green/Gold i think but there's some highlands with like Red Malawi/Swazi connection. A new import would be interesting will see
Fresh Zambaz F2s

I'm sure there are still plenty in Mozambique if someone is prepared to go there.

Its a shame as back in the day we used to get outstandingly strong disinfectant pine smelling cobs from the Tete area of Mozambique.
I'd give anything to get seeds from those cobs now ha ha.
Yes borders dont mean much when it comes to ganja its more tribal and geographic locations.Ya @Tangwena Tete province is exactly between Zambia and Malawi so all East mountainous Moz' borders zones should be interesting, my nose would go to the Maputo Swaz connection too!
Some tribes have long histories growing ganja and selecting for their own tastes.
Unlike the new commercial growers who are just farming ganja to make a living as life is hard for them.
Its the old school experts that hold the best ganja.

I had always seen one of the biggest cultural and geographic rifts that affected a schism in cannabis genetics was the Saharan desert.
North of the desert had Islamic influence and Islamic trade, so from Morocco to Egypt had a commonality that even expanded into the fertile crescent. Hash-focused plants whose chemo type was more balanced and leaned towards the traditional indica/hash plant denotation.
Sub Saharan cannabis was typically distinct from Islamic North Africa just as we see with Sub Saharan culture. More sativa, extreme THC dominance with little to no CBD, and a more ethereal, mental and spiritually wrathful.
But then I played with Sinai genetics and found some plants that had the smell and buzz of Durban. Like moreso than any Dutch 'durban.'
Of course, this is a statistical outlier and thus solidifies the rift created by the Sahara desert.
Another cool facet is how Madagascar and Zamal cannabis is seemingly closer to Indian than Kwazulu or Mozambique.
The islands are so very close to southern Africa, yet were more influenced by India's oceanic conquest and slave trade.
Oh man, slave trade and cannabis. What a history. Even 1900's USA continued a psyops of attributing cannabis use to what only slaves use.
These colleges and universities ought to have a couple days solely on the slave trade and cannabis in their anthropology classes
Morocco received hash plants from Afghanistan and Lebanon just since the 20th so before there was no really hasch culture there like in Egypt earlier so only sativa smoked in sibsi as kif and ethnically people are also more Berber than Islamic or Arab. A same antic Amazigh culture for the big part of North Africa in the far past before the 7th and all around Sahara!
For Zamala i don't really agree, i think it's more similar with South Africa and South East Asia than with South India, it's like proto or prehistoric. I think cannabis landed in South India maybe like later than in Madagascar in fact. (?)
Concretely what i found and felt in Swaz or Zam is different than what i found in Kerala even if of course it's the same pure sat big family. The difference is small but significant imho, a question of terroir and latitude, Kerala like Lambsbread like Ethiopian have more gently kind of high i would say.

Its def a mish mash of sources with the Arabs and Indians trading with Eastern African coast for centuries.
Add to that generations of hybridisation and local climatic changes its anybodies guess where they originated thats for sure.
The strongest stuff seems to come from the Rift valley in Eastern Africa in fact the whole East coast was just a melting pot of nations and plants came with them.
I'm just grateful to have sampled the tiny amount of that culture I did its a wild part of the world even today.
Thats a very wild area of Mozambique even today (North) the white mans graveyard.I meant higher elevation places so it concerns only East borders of Mozambique
Nature expertise ^^
So good preserved place to hunt original very old SA dagga ^^
