Agreed on the Thai prolly carrying this trait...
Along with lots of strains, landraces and varieties, I've grown hundreds of Thai ganja plants from seed sourced in Thailand myself and have never noticed red sap...as a matter of fact I don't remember that I've never seen this red sap trait in any of the plants I've grown.
here's a question for Sam.....some plants and weeds have seeds that germinate on time release (iow not all the seeds germinate at the same time) that ensures some of the seeds from that seed mother survive and grow to maturity......many of the equatorial sativas I've grown have seeds that seem to behave in the same way : most germinate after e.g. 7 days, some after e.g. 10 ~ 14 days and a small minority of other seeds germinate later or don't at all (not presoaked, just planted straight in the soil) which is different from the indica seeds which all seem to all germinate within a few days.
is this because some of these semi wild and wild tropical sativas seeds from the same seed plant are different (thicker seed coats etc) that ensure time release germination or is there another reason (eg barely viable seed takes longer to germinate ..or...)?
another question......you mentioned you bred Thais 30 years ago that had hermie traits as they do, but bred the hermie trait out successfully (something I didn't have the ability to do myself 15 years ago)..........in your opinion were Thais less hermie prone in the 1960's and 70's compared to the 80's and 90's..(or is it just a matter of working with a large enough number of females and being very good at plant selection and breeding?).
were the Thais in the '60's and 70's different from the '80's and '90 Thais in your opinion?..for e.g. I read somewhere years ago (sorry, forgot the source) that mentioned Thais from the 60's had large seeds which were mottled in appearance though every seed I've seen on Thai bud in Thailand and from Thais I've grown (almost all were very lightly seeded or had a small lower branch heavily seeded) had small to tiny seeds with no marking, mottling or "tiger striping"
questions questions!..........many thanks in advance!
