the Mexican Landraces Thread

Hola elchischas and all :wave:

Thanks for sharing your pics and experiences with Mexican landraces. I've never had opportunity to grow a real Mexican sativa, the closest I've been is the so called "Mexican sativa" from Sensi - which is actually a polyhybrid and not even close to it's Oaxacan ancestors imho. But I hope someday I'll come by some true Mexican sativas.

These days I'm reproducing a Santa Marta Columbian Gold (line 2), a 16-week true sativa gifted from a Vibes friend ;). So I post a recent pic of one of these - I hope it's ok by you. A very productive pheno, really looking forward to the end... about 12 weeks flowering in the pic.

peace & love,
lynx

Wow what a great first thread, and timely in my case since I am just harvesting my fist serious grow after collecting seeds from the pacific coast of mexico. They are broader leafed, hearty ladies, and those I am harvsting now have a distinctly lavender smell. Of course I have no idea to their genetics. I only took seeds from two strains though. One has been suffering through spring outdoors (terrible rain, hail storms) and is far from finished veging, so I cant really comment on how it is, but the indoor girls really took off. I was lucky in that of the seeds I sowed, I wound up with only 2 males out of 8. In anycase, I'd like to stress how these plants pretty much grew themselves. Nothing fancy as far as nutes, inexpensive lights and some good ol composted dirt. Viva mexico! Ill post pix when I figure out how to from my phone.

I actually have a film container or two full of indian landrace seeds, I've just got a small indoor space, and not enough patience to sort through em.. I'm giving a couple haze crosses a go, but they're at least somewhat adapted to indoor growing.

I've grown some sativas outdoors here, but if I didn't have a greenhouse that year they'd have never made it until the end of flowering. It's just too wet in late fall.. although it usually doesn't freeze until Jan or Feb.

elchischas, Every time that I see this thread I stop in but never post because I have no good old time Mexican landrace seeds. I do have Chimeras excellent cross though & I am looking forward to growing that one out! I can remember the most excellent kind buds good quality Mexican grows! So, not all of us are only about the Kushes. I like me some Kush..that is for sure! But given the choise to have a nice fat bag of Mexican from say 1970 or a bag of Kush..I would pick the bag of Mexican sativa every time..as I am a sativa freak! Thank you all for making this thread what it is..great! monkey5

hi friends...
Ixnay007.. hello, sounds great
about their Indian lines
it's a shame you can not cultivate comfortably
the two lines belong to different regions?

hey monkey5 how are u?
do not worry
is very difficult today have seeds of the mexican strains
the future does not look good...
about crossing of chimera I'm sure there must be something very good; spend a little time
in the section of Cannabiogen
our friend Raspablo
has interesting things to offer
certainly something you'll like..
thanks for your words friend.

Bohempian, hi sir.... thx for stopping here

Mr, alkaline your cross sound very interesting... looks like a old sativa
this one crossing with a mexican lady should procude something wonderful..

I leave here more oaxacans photos
I did not want use
by the problem of hermaphroditism
but they were beautiful ...
and pure

hi friends...

Well, the seeds are from a friend who got them from a hippy who used to go on 3 month charas making tours in india, and he gave him some seeds which came from his personal grow in the country, so there are some which are the originals from india, and some which are "open" F1s and F2s.

I never had a chance to talk to the guy, and my friend wasn't exactly a horticulturist.. so it's definitely a little gamble.

Then there's the slight possibility that they might not be viable :D

As for not being able to cultivate sativas comfortably here, it's mostly due to the climate, late fall it gets rainy and grey, and a lot of the surrounding vegetation starts to die back.. making plants which are already a mold risk into a security risk as well.
