This is amazing news! Ive long wanted to try some Oaxacan. I did pick up a pack of 79 Oaxacan IBL that i have been wanting to start while i still have this Mexican Honduras female to cross with it.Sounds Please, keep us updated during her second half of flowering.
Regarding American Sativas, last years i've working on a few really nice Oaxacan hybrids, but they have not been commercially released yet.
Can't wait to cross Tikal with Oaxacan 79 that's going to be a good one!
I have a Tikal in a bucket that is growing out of control. I'm doubling her reservoir and light proofing the tent to flip her to flower her this weekend. I have a bunch of clones already rooted just in case this baby needs preserving

14 weeks sounds like a lot for a Tikal plant. I would guess that's why the effect came out heavier.My tikal is a wild child, here she is at 12.5 weeks from clone. I ended up taking her down at 14, which still felt a bit early, although there was some stress from neglect slowing things down. After 2 months in the jar, she smells like sandalwood, gassy fumes, and spice. The high is a potent stone, stronger and heavier than I expected, reminds me a lot of a more cerebral skunk actually, in a good way. We'll see how she is in another month if I run her again indoors, so far I like her best in veg so I've got the mom to grow outdoors.

Yeah, I think the expression is less common leaning toward the kush/haze side. What was the high like on your pheno @splinter7 ?
That's correct; longer flowering Tikal phenos were mainly sour and woody, as @splinter7 correctly pointed out. Around 2007, there was also a very incensey NL/Haze expression with much heavier effects. Perhaps yours, @early_hominid, leans towards such an older expression, although I think the stresses during flowering may have also affected it.the woodsy sour pheno i ran went nearly 14 weeks. it was fairly squat too. some go a bit longer apparently...caught me off guard a bit.
