i'll be back, i'll round them up, i hope a new way to pop them can be found, like cripsr dna electrophoresis tech.

(top dressed a little too librally recently)
Original release Satori x Nepalese Jam (Smelled like the Nepalese End, don't remember much else about the male.... Its been a minute...)
I only have this one iteration left, but it has a strong funky orange and it doesn't stretch a whole lot. Honestly this is not the highest yielding pheno, I have had out of the crossing, but it hits fucking hard. I took a really big rip, trying to steel my nerves to deal with the public (ASD) and ended up finding myself sitting back down on the bed at the end of it. Its got a good up happy vibe to it. Its not my absolute strongest sativa hybrid, but it is very nice.
I'm looking to cross it to [G13H(R.M's cup cut) x (Nepalese Jamacian x Orient Express] x (Satori x Nep Jam) x Zamalidelica original release. I grew the original release of Golden Tiger too. The male didn't look like either end. So I'm assuming the Reuinion was dom.
The Nep Jam x Orient Express used a really special lady, that I found in an ealry Nepalese Jamacan pheno from before Ace and Cannabiogen split. It had this really silly, happy, up effect. I mean like markedly so.
The keeper cut, I had from the Orient Express was nice for hit the ground running, get out of bed and go herb. It was funny though, I was giving a roommate gravity bong rips. The stuff was so heady, with no body, and clear headed-heady, that he kept insisting that he wasn't feeling it... right up until he had a panic attack... He was fine. I get to be amused.
Anyways, the initial crossing with the G13H smoothed out that end, and gave a big potency boost to the other... but the G13H had no flavor to speak of what so ever and it killed the flavor in the cross. Plus I was growing out the seed stock under duress and lost my males. So an accidental polination was the only way I got to keep the line.
(That's 98% one plant, but if you look at the top-most left corner, that is Tikal)
Sorry that is the only real flowering shot that I have of that gene pool. I will have more current flowering shots of both soon.
The other two crossings I want to do with the 1st plant are: Tropical Mango from Cannapot (really stoked to run those, I have to say they really have been one of my absolute favorites to do business with) and also Circa 2006-7 or so [White Label Rhino x (Critical Bilbo x White Rhino)] x Zamalidelica (same as above I'm hoping for funky as shit sweet orange, day wrecker-nonfunctional Haze style sativa hybrid smoke. When I have flowering shots, I will post the Rhino hybrid too. She is nice. She grows like a sativa and ends up sweet, sleepy, stony indica smoke. I like stretch. Stretch = yield potential

Thank you so much!!!! I am a lot better at staring at plants than I am at the IT side of things. I have had better cameras, but am pretty poor and anything that I don't need for survival tends to go towards plants or things to make things out of them. Which doesn't leave a lot for new cameras. I have one, that I found a video on repairing the lens motor deal, which is the part that shorted. I just need to be in the headspace to open up and work on something that tedious and probably a better soldering iron. Anyways, thank you!
Anything come of this?

...and a tad more. Not enough info in the jpg left to do much more re colour. Gave a little sharping as well. Always good to see these old school strains... but a lot of the images didn't hold up well. So they deserve a little attention re posterity.

Just so you know, I appreciated this so much that I just now logged back in to snap up this copy of the picture to share with someone else.
I got SERIOUSLY... distracted... over at the Mr.Nice site. That auction... If only I could communicate how hard I am laughing at myself right now. Like you ever know anyone, who was actually really fucking serious about sports gambling, and I don't mean exactly leaving things to chance...? Yeah... an autistic guy, who REALLY loves weed and some seed auctions... you do the math. But... I got some great deals!
Anyways, love you guys. Just wanted to say "hello." Hope to have some pics worth sharing soon.
I've been trying to execute my equivalence of cleaning The Augean Stables, just to get this grow flowering. I've done pretty well to not red headed step child too many of them. Lost a few, but the only thing I lost, that can't be replaced was a Manipuri. You know that scene in Peter Pan, with Tinker Bell and the clapping...? Yeah, it didn't work. I will be able to repro some regular TCC Chem 91 and JOTI's God's Super Skunk x Chernobyl, which seem to no longer be options. The rest is just me working on my shit though. I need coffee too badly to be any more specific. Though if you really want to know I will tell you... at length (see: autistic guy, who REALLY loves weed)
By the way that was a grow, that I had to walk away from, that I was doing for a patient. Shit just got too toxic. I had to be honest. So I left the keys and never came back. They asked... but one step too far. I've been burned more times than I'd care to communicate. Shit might be going "legal," but the world is not exactly kind to the actual farmers.
I still have two sister phenos of the main plant. A cross of that to the original release of Zamalidelica, using a male, that didn't resemble anything I saw in Golden Tiger. Muted scent, really vine like, with a tendency to put off large single or triple bladed leaves even when large. Then I have a cousin line, from a plant, that I have no idea what the lineage is. It was called "Sunshine," but was not as far as I know, in any way related to the Hill Temple Collective strain. The guy, who had it, was an ass, but he was also connected to The Fair. So... At any rate, the prodginey is a bit much for folks, who have no tolerance. But it also reduced another autistic guy, I know to rolling on the floor laughing. Literally. I don't have that exact line either... I have had some truly hellish years and had to sort of genetic hot potato it to keep it around. With my 1st goal being: getting it outside. So I crossed it to a Strawberry Cough x Parvati Valley(DP: hey they were a gift, I'm not wasteful, and they did well in my microclimate AND had a similar aromatic profile to the PV, which was... lime, so not plugging DP, but in this case, it worked) The thing is, that was still a little long winded and I didn't have a lot of seeds to play with anyways. I had a Kumaoni plant, that wasn't too assertive in crosses, but imparted good mold resistance. That ended up working beautifully. So I crossed it back to it's cousin line, the above pictured, but to a really sweet floral orange scented plant. Where that one above, and one of her sisters, that I have, are more on the funky orange end.
I also have seeds from the Sunshine cross with all of the Himalayan shit. Then I had a couple of "male" Rhino x (Critical Mass x Rhino) x Chitrali plants, that I just let get hit with everything. It was already happening. Fuck it. The thing is, I've had that line sans the Chitrali for going on 15 years or so. I'm pretty aware of what it does in crosses. Most of the plants were extremely different enough to be able to guess. The rest? Hey if its good?
I also have that one (as a male) crossed to the Sinai, sans the Himalayan stuff. I only got one plant and it was a male. So I crossed it to a Balkhi female, that ended up being straight CBD, but the odor shifted from lime, to cat piss with burnt rubber, to something that smelled more like Shiskaberry, than anything else I have encountered. When fresh, towards the end of flower, Shishka gets this food trash in the hot sun, sort of sickly sweetness to it, coupled with more intense burnt rubber notes. Its like if I could pull those notes from Shishka's aromatic profile. That is what this Balkhi smelled like. After a cure it was just sort of skunky. Really nice to mix with other shit though. Looking forward to running those. Also crossed it to Tirah and Erdpurt x Sinai.
I'm thinking of eventually selecting multiple lines, heavy with the Sunshine cross in it, recombine them, and call the result "Cosmic Slop."
