"Pre-Soviet" Afghani Question
- Thread starter Reign of Terror
- Start date
I believe this "pre-soviet Affy" thing originates from the decline of the quality of Afghan hashish
..and home growers have later picked up the term from that.
When did the Soviets invade Afghanistan?
The Pre Soviet Affy originates previous to this date.
It's as simple as that.
Of course the quality of exported Afghan hash declined. It was sold dry within a few years after the hippy trail was established.
There's a fairly decent historical account in R.C.C.'s book HASHISH.

All the countries of Central Asia minus Iran and Afghanistan were under soviet control and this is why we don't see many landrace's from places like Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan even tho they hold some of the most ancient genetics of cannabis and grows wild everywhere...if the soviets succeeded in Afghanistan u really have to question if we would see any genetics from this country or the filth opiates that r plaguing the world
Jalabad Star fully finished with next gen seed sept. 20th here at just shy of 37deg NL..2500'ele..night temps dropped to high 40's for 3 days and purple shading commenced........

Good to hear Backbart and Mt nectar, mine are getting close with lots of purpling. I'm really looking forward to sampling the smoke.

Anyone grown out the chitral precious or pakistan treasure?
That Jalalabad Star lookin dope!

Hell yeah BlackBart she looks awesome! Need to pick this one up as well as the Jalalabad Star.
Pakistan Treasure looks interesting too. I noticed the price was a little higher on that one despite it being a mix of BLD and NLD, lower yielding, and having intersex tendencies. Got to be a reason he's charging $5 more for that one.
Did you find the quality of the females to be consistent in these lines, or was there a lot of variation?

I can only speak on the JS, but I find them pretty consistent, at least in my patch. Smell, bud structure, trich cover, harvest time and plant habit all are very close. there are some slight differences, but overall very impressed with the uniformity. Most are purpling to some degree and 1 or 2 are staying green.
they are doing well with the humid weather we've been having and the buds are dense. The little I've trimmed up looks tight. I should be harvesting them now but need to wait a few days until Im free.
I would agree with the JS being fairly stable in its plant profile . There are some slight variations but very minute .
As far as the Chitral goes ..this is the first time I have grown her out so I will have to grow it out a few more times before I get a true assessment .
