Taskenti

[Carraxe]

The pollination with the other different males was a success. This is the selected Taskenti mom pollinated with the #3 2012 male:



Most of the seeds look dark and mature.

This is the same Taskenti clone pollinated with pollen from two different males from the 2005 run.



In a couple of months I will grow plants coming from all the different males to compare. I am going to keep the 2005 and 2012 lines separately. We have been smoking the females from these seeds after some cure. Killer herb, my friends just fall down slept in a moment, love them.

And good news: two of the plants from the 2005 line that I though were males, happened to be females. I got them wrong because of the hard branching they have in the internodes, that make them look like male preflowers. It is nice I saved all the plants I had.

Everything is going great.
Cheers

I've planted some of these seeds I made in 2018. Let's see if they still sprout, but after 5 years the possibilities are fewer every year. It would be a pity if this strain was lost, I smoked some Taskenti this month and I was out of order for a while. What a wonderful weed for sex.


Still looking for a proper match, some plant what can keep this special high alive.

Hehe you don't want to be out of order for sex.

Good luck with the beans.

Good luck on popping the Takenti! I really hope you get them to sprout, buds and seeds looking superb!

Cannabis seeds lost about 50% of their germination ratio after 4-5 years when stored at roomtemperature and humidity. In a refrigerators they will store easily up to 10 years and more and in a freezer even more.

These have been all the time in the fridge, so I guess I could get a 50% germination rate. I have some older ones I doubt they'll sprout... but I have to plant them soon

Sounds perfect, I wouldn't be surprised if you get close to 00% germination
Keep us updated.

How is the grow going?

Not bad. Anyway, just a few sprouted

I've put several plants into flower and the first males have shown themselves just after a week. Since now on, my attention will be to the females.

There are four females flowering at 3 weeks, the resin has just appeared and they look like this right now.

I've got several Taskentis at 6 weeks. This is one of them, with several tips. While Black Dominas and other indicas mature very quickly under leds, and they look near done at 6 weeks, the Taskenti needs more time to deliver.

As soon as the summer ends, I'll start a big batch of seeds. I miss this deffinitive painkiller effect a lot. As you can see in the pictures, summer indoors are terrible for plants and they look stressed.

I've had some germination issues with some of the seeds and I'm worried about its future. I had the problem specifically with a different branch that would provide some genetic diversity.

 

[Carraxe]

These are some of the seeds I made 5 years ago, with the special cut and the #3 male from the 2012 batch of seeds from CBG. They sprout quite well

Let's hope for good keepers. Sweet smokes

Keep em coming bro

I'm going to pot these twentysomething Taskentis that sprouted. This is a grow to select the best specimens, the first in a while. I have made seeds with different males, so I'll have to make different grows for selection .

Sweet smokes

A couple of Taskentis at 4 weeks and a half. They look exactly like they should.

Cheers

A day short of 6 weeks. I love this sugar, it means a lot to me. This is one of the three specimens I am flowering now from the same batch, and all the three of them look very good.

I'm think this would be a good match to cross with an old school sensi star f4

As far as I know, this Uzbek weed doesn't mix well with Afghans and Pakis, that are the most universal hashplants. It loses its uniqueness and the special high becomes the standard Indica high.
