Hey el manito,no i haven't the acapulco gold from dr greenthumb...at least not in pure form...a friend gave me some seeds of acapulco gold x jamaican blue mountain...not planned to grow them before some months...i'm sure they will be great.
The mexican sativa come from sensiseeds,i think the genetic is oaxaca x(oaxaca x durban/hashplant),not a great strain,weak in potency but some individuals with great taste.
The pheno i used in the cross was really spicy without durban presence in the taste( anised) with an energetic high(mild but stronger than the others individuals) but not long lasting.
The cross with pahari is very heterogeneous,here is another pheno:
I'm sorry hardhat 22,i have no pics of the mexican mother,but she looks smilar to the one in the pics.
Well, i had Mexican sativa last year after many years.It was not the same i had in 1991.I made a cross last year with one of the Yunnan strains i had.
Weak in potency is probably caused by the Pakistan hashplant they made a cross with.Perhaps a CBD-pheno, who knows, but the smell is great.
Acapulco Gold x Blue Mountain, give me a pm when you start to pop those beans.
has anyone tried the mexican haze by dampkring?
any thoughts on that one?
nice ptg I have been really curious by that pahari farmhouse... would you mind doing a smoke report on her?
also what size pots do you recomend to grow her indoors... flowering times yeild potential etc...
This year I finally got land in california to grow on. With some of the most intense sunlight and most open inland fertile area to grow in. So I planted haze hybrids like super silver, phoenix f2, 1998 cup winning SSH, and the relatively new 'Afghan Haze x Afghan Skunk' from shantibaba. Now I am really, really glad I kept a clone of this plant. It grows so elegantly and picturesque and yields fully purple sativa flowers that smell like chocolatey astringent haze. All the foliage remains green until late flowering when it begins to fade. Meanwhile, the sparse yet firm buds develop a deep purple coloring that is completely genetic, filling the calyxes with color from inside out.
I can't really talk about it since i've grown only two individuals.As a charras landrace i think the line is quite variable,at least in potency,effect and taste, and surely better if grown outdoors vs indoor.But you may find good indoors individuals if you are a lucky man.
Smell was really carot,taste was very mild ,as the high but with a great meditative,introspective effect.I love the space food made with it,keep you fonctionnal,clear headed and give a spiritual blissfool feeling,you know, looking at the cloud in the sky and thinking: wow,that's so beautiful...
Flowering time is close to 12 weeks,don't know exactly because i have grown it in 12/12,need several pruning or at least LST,really stretchy sativa...easy to overwatering her in soil.
Yeild is dependant of your way of growing,plant in the pics was in coco in a 2.5l pot,been pruned three time,grown in 12/12 and she yeilded approx. 40 gr (dw).
Hope it helps!
E2a:wokkawokka,your plant is really gorgeous!well done!
thanks ptg! its been a challenge to grow it in my 3'6" high cab but i seem to be just getting away with it with the scrog. the frostiness may have been helped by a longish veg (8 weeks i think and topped 4 times to control height).
Black Forrest is vietnam 'black' x hawaiian cherry bomb.
the vietnam in this case is a landrace strain collected from deep in the jungle rather than a cultivated vietnam black hybrid type. the hawaiian cherry bomb is a sativa line but it is said to be fairly transparent in the cross with the hybrid being 80% dominated by the vietnam.
thanks so much for that info PTG! I have been trying to decide on one of the real seed co strains and it was a toss up between malana, pahari farmhouse and the nepalese.
