Sorry, off topic for the thread, but why would one treat with colchicine to get a polyploid?

The legend (myth) is that creating polyploids can result in plants with monster vigor and copious amounts of THC and potency. I doubt any of the famous strains are polyploid so it's very likely just a myth.

Indicas make dreams happen
So what are we going by to define what makes a potent Indica? The measured cannabinoid profile/ratios? The exact effect or high felt?
For me personally, a potent Indica is one with an extremely relaxing and euphoric buzz. Something that is heavily sedating and makes you pass completely out. I have very bad insomnia and for me a strain like that would be a game changer. From what I hear most people describe this type of bud as very boring and undesirable. I imagine most would try to breed away from these effects. I would personally breed towards them to help myself and others.
Any opinions?

Damn is this true? Im rowing bangi haze outdoor this year im a sativa guy wish I knew this but still have hope for sativa effects from the reviews.
Did ace know what the Congo they were getting was? even if Ace murdered puppies I would believe them over anything Reeferman said or did.
I wouldn't call them shady, it's usually clear what the types of genetics they are offering, they are not in the landrace game, they are clear about that.
the panama is clearly sold as an hybrid of panamanian strains, I see no mention of it being a landrace.
Land race is sorta misleading. Humans have been messing with plants and cannabis for ages. They could farm wild for awhile then it kinda goes wild again, then farm it again.
Like afghans, those are very worked. I'd bet a lot of the indian, nepal, and pakistani are worked as well. It's just it as harder for people eons back. Who knows how much lost? Alot of african is also worked.
I don't think older humans were as attached to cannabis. It was not as politically motivated. Or even entirely religious. But there are elements of religon. Opium was far more political.

It's seem there's no consensus on what constitutes a landrace, to me a landrace is something that has been grown in the same area. I don't know what the cutoff time is.. 30,50,100 years? everything is an hybrid if you really think about it.. a landrace is just something that has been grown in a certain part of the world for which it has acclimatized to the climate and soil.
a landrace crop should have high genetic variation to ensure survival.. the only seedbank to me that truly sells some landrace seeds is The real seed company at the moment.. other seedbanks are selling Heirloom seeds, even the real seed company sells heirlooms.
My understanding is that a landrace is seeds/plants that have grown in their native environemnt , for ages without any kind of human interjection. Where as 'heirloom" are landraces that have been worked by the natives of the area, and bred to their liking/goals. No external modern cannabis genetics injected into the gene-pool. That's what I think of when i hear landrace and heirloom.

Personally I am inclined to trust Ace above certain individuals who seem to have their own agenda, one which is clearly focused on defaming a specific seed company.
Heres a good PURE Sativa. Purple Cortino.

I recently grew LA Conf, sweet tooth, and maple leaf. None were top shelf like years ago
I thought swt4 from sotf was bunk but i only had one so not hatin, it didnt stick around much i dont think.
You have any pics of that L.A. Con ? I had one like 5-6 years ago, that was some for the best smoke I have found from seed. Didn't yield for shit, but it was super potent.
I had the Barneys Farm REGULAR Sweettooth 9 years ago, and it was really good.
I have pictures of the new ones somewhere. They are not labeled though. They were taller then the older ones, and the plants look totally different. Both were from Barneys.
Here is the older one from about 8-9 years ago. Dense wonderful tasting afghan phenol. Ultra strong

Good courage not to pass for a myhtomaniac in more of a thief, because there your toasted everywhere, especially in France since yesterday you make much speak about you...

DNA is selling La Confidential now.
I don't think it's the same anymore
