Walk-a-bout Mr. Nice Seedbank!!!!!!!!

[Capt. Crip]

Please read!!!
Ladies and Gentlemen,,,,this one is a sleeper.This is Shanti's outdoor mix containing Thai Haze Skunk and several other sativas.I wrote him a PM about growing these indoors and he said to go for it that they would work indoors also.Well let me tell ya,,,work they did!!!I'm so glad I grew these out and definitely plan to do more.This pack of seeds contained some of the frostiest most unique plants you could ever ask to grow,they were outstanding!!!

All of the plants were on the tall side,but not overly so.They were managable and posed little problems.
The flavors ran the entire spectrum from Mango sweet to deep,deep skunk.
Flowering times ran from 65-85 days and a few could have gone a little longer.
These babies were potent!!!Strong and cerebal,wonderful full spectrum highs.......
Another plus was that there was 18 seeds in the pack!!!!This is a common practice for Shanti.The seeds were from old stock so the germ rates were a little low but I have no complaints about anything.
Every plant was a potential keeper.I have nothing negative to say about these seeds.
I highly reccommend these babies to anyone wanting high quality plants.
I will try to find some pics to post..
Take care all.................................CC

These are the only pics I could find.
They are around 3-1/2 to 4 weeks in flower.
The plants were just killer!!!
Gypsy has them for like $25.00 at the boutique.IMHO this is the best seed deal on the entire internet!!!Every plant was very high quality.
I would like to see Shanti and DJShort do a joint project,,,,,,now that would be awesome!!(Super-Silver-Blue-Haze)

Thanks Captain for posting this. Sounds like I need to get a letter off in the mail.

I had an old pack of Walkabout and the germ rate was very low, got 4 plants in the end, one of those that was female turned out to be some sort of Haze, had to tie it down a lot and it produced long thin foxtail type buds. Lots of frost and a high yield for a sativa but for some reason it had such a vile taste I couldn't smoke it, I made it into kif with a shaker and it was mind blowing. I'll put the taste down to some error on my part, but honestly, it was vile, two puffs of a joint and I threw it away, just rotten. Might have been a drying and curing issue, due to the open structure of the buds they dried real fast, maybe a slower dry and a few weeks cure and it would have not tasted like a mouthful of hot tar mixed with fish guts and burning plastic.

The other female was a compact indica and had leaves that reminded me of Maple Leaf Indica, the leaves were the most beautiful I have seen, they had a soft, velvety feel and were a bright green rather than dark like a pure indica. It may well have been some kind of Skunk/Afghan blend similar to Shit or Devil, but if I'd been told it was Maple Leaf Indica, I'd have believed it. I put this one outside as i had run out of space an some asshole stole her so can only imagine what her buds would have been like, but she was a very fine lady.

The two males were both beautiful, Shanti identified one as a White Widow x Haze cross (relative of El Nino) and it seemed to lean to the Haze side a little as it was tall and sativa structured but had leaves that looked like White Widow. I used that one to make a bunch of crosses and he appears to have been dominant in them which isn't a bad thing as he also seems to have passed on a very high potency, I crossed him to Skunk #1 and the result was much more potent that Skunk #1 and yield was very high, I lost the clone mother to a fan failure that turned my cab into an oven but I have lots more of the seeds. I did a cross of him to Lowryder too and they turned out pretty damn potent too, the Lowryder was very recessive in that cross.

The other male seemed like some sort of Skunk and was a lovely plant but I had no use for him. I was really pissed off when he turned out to be a male as it was one of the best plants in the garden and I was sure I'd seen a pistil in veg.

I put the low germ rate down to the fact the pack I bought was produced before Shanti went to jail so was two years or more old when I got them. However, all four plants were among the best I've ever grown. I originally planned to put them all outdoors but they were so nice they stayed in apart from one that had to go outside due to running out of space.

BH,
I know what you mean about high quality..This report is a little old but the info is spot on..I loved the plants I found in the pack..Some were down right tropical in nature..Wonderful fruity odor/flavors..Now that I'm growing C99 and Sweet Tooth #3 I can recognize some of the odors again..Different fruity from say Blueberry or Bubblegum,,more tropical like...
And more sativa-like also..

I doubt the odor from your plant was you fault..I can imagine some odd genetics popping up from time to time in the mixes..It might have made for a special parent plant for hybrids,especially if the potency was way up there..A cross to a fruity indica would have probably cured the odor problem and possibly passed on the killer potency..

This is one that I will certainly try again...The fact that the mix changes makes it even more exciting to try...These Walkabouts are a good place to stumble across elites type plants..


Heya Baccus,just noticed your post bro...
Yes this stuff is/was top notch for me...I actually do not remember a subpar plant out of the females.....

Take care and grow safe.....................................CC

right on, im glad this one was bumped. for some reason, ive always overlooked walkabout. but, i love shanti's work and it sounds right up my alley.

has anyone grown a newer pack of walkabout? im sure they are high quality, just curious as to sativa to indica percentages.

Hello Capt, this really sound like the best deal on the net. Especially for sativa lovers. And you know there are solid genitics in the pack. Thanks for informing the members.
