I dropped the seeds in RO water for a soak untill the floaties sink.

I hope you get them all to pop. I lived (barely :yoinks: )and partied hard through the 70's. Every once and awhile, I wish I had some of the good old stuff. What a difference time makes.
Real Hawaiian, Thai Stick, That classic spicey gold colored Columbian that tasted and smelled like hash. Panama Red, which I recently saw again, but I don't know how close it is to the original......ahh memories.

Hope you get a unique keeper for clones. Good luck

This is gonna be interesting, they are older than me...lets hope they all germ..any idea wot sort of bud they came from?
 
Cant wait to see what happens and how the ladies turn out. I think those seeds are older than a lot of people on the forums :D Man I'am gettin old..LOL. Good Luck Sin, got my fingers crossed for ya'. HH
 
WOW 78' thats cool, wonder where the're from.
i remember in 82' buying some of the finest mexi. wish i had some of those beans.
old school land race genetics that got yer whole head and body stoned!
found recently some gold sativa of unknown origins 75 days to finish. very fine pedigree (land race) best bag seed of shwag i've ever grown.
anyway DO YOU KNOW HOW THESE BEANS CAME ABOUT? ARE THEY S.AMERICAN OR INIAN, INDONESIAN ? OR JUST A KILLER BAG THAT SOMEONE HAD THE GREAT FORESIGHT TO SAVE A FEW OF THE GENETICS. ISIN'T IT CRAZY ALL GENES ARE WORKED AND SOLD NOW.
IT'S THE SEARCHER THAT'S KEEPING LANDRACE GENES ALIVE.
ANYWAY IT WOULD BE COOL IF YOU COULD TELL US HOW THESE WERE STORED AND IT WILL BE INTRESTING TO SEE IF THEY POP AFTER 16 YEARS.
This is the test of an era here is 79 genes the end of muscle cars ( the last 6.6 ltr trans am. that folks was the end of that road) The end of stoner rock, stadium rock in the proper sense.
and of course disco which lived and died in 77 - 79. and the birth of punk rock. after was new wave, plastic rock, alt rock, hair rock and OF COURSE WORKED GENETICS AND HYBRIDS.
so of couse i'm excited to see what comes up just wish i could have a taste when it's done.
BW. rock on!

As to Where they Came?

I was gifted these seeds by someone who would have been smoking killer weed in 78 79. He said Skunk perhaps, he may not be certain him self.

As to who is was, that info was in my 1st post. For those that know that's good enough, for those that don't, I'll let him come-forth on his own if he wishes. I'm damn happy and proud to have them. Let's hope they sprout some keepers.

Think the late 70's early 80's were great for Pot. I was smoking some Hydro Hawaiian 81, knock out high could smell it across Base. :yummy:
77 or 78 Thai Stick was Assume, Skunk, never had Panama Red, and frankly back then had someone said Mexi Land Race was Columain Gold i woulda believed them! :pointlaug: and I've had some Knock Out Mexi as well back then.

Sin :bat:
 
Right on, sinful
but don't get me wrong. I'm not say'in i found some columbian.
just sayin' i found a sativa that is gold in color, more silver and gold really ,
and yea, it was bag seed, that's all..
Back to what's really up. it's been 7 hours. are ya planning to soak 12 or more hours and then paper towel, or straight to medium?
personally i soak beans 18 hrs and go straight to rapid rooters that have soaked in ozarka water and squezzed and soaked again.

WoW Sin, you got some super nice friends :wave: Here's the info on these seeds and i'm not going to go and Hi-Jack this thread. The seeds were from my uncle. He was one of those importers that imported weed back in the 70-80's by the tons. The only stuff that he was getting back then was this killass skunk. The stuff that you could smell through two ziplock bags from about 50 meters away. The seeds came from two places VIA Key West from planes dropping them off into the ocean and boats picking them up and the second out of good old Texas. Now, the stuff was that nasty smelling skunk. I was selling it in High school to friends and would collect the seeds. As for the seeds in the buds. There wasn't much for a 1/4oz. I'd say about 12-15 seeds per bag. The bud was that Smelly with some red hairs. The high way that happy and then slipping into that sleepiness. Very good stuff that i hope returns with Sin's grow. What i did was collect them from everyones trays and place them into a ziplock bag at room temp. If i had to guess, i'd say it was a afghan, but i could be wrong. Well, that enough info for now. I'll post some more on it, since i' heading out of town for a few hours. Good luck Sin, and hope they make it. At least half if not all.
Take care everyone
You Know Who :chin:
