Hi!

I have a couple of SensiSeeds Afghani #1 flowering and one already in the jar.

First I leave some pics here and then I'll share with you some information about this Afghani and another Afghani that is a limited edition available now.













She is curing since last friday, so I'll give it a couple of weeks and then I'll make a smoke report. I've already tried a joint yesterday and I really enjoyed it. Very nice Indica body effect, relaxed and longlasting. Tastes a bit earthy and seems to have some sweet flavours about to come out with the cure procedure. For what I can tell after my first evaluation, Afghani #1 is my favourite from the 4 strains I passed to the jars last friday. The other strains are Hashplant (also from SensiSeeds), Black Jack (SweetSeeds) and Original Big Bud x Super Skunk (High Quality Seeds).

In terms of production, you can compare it with the other strains I've grown, they all were treated in the same way and within the same size of containers:

Afghani #1 - 9gr
Hashplant - 8gr
Black Jack - 8gr
Big Bud x Super Skunk - 14gr

For more details go on and have a look at my thread.

The information about the SensiSeeds Afghani #1 is this:

The plants from the fast, heavy, compact side of the cannabis family tree are named after India, and it’s true that these strains are commonly grown for charas in the mountainous north of the country. However, the most perfect examples of the dark, ultra-resinous Cannabis Indica genotype are actually found hundreds of kilometres to the northwest, in the mountains of Afghanistan.

Dedicated students of Indica bloodlines often refer to these varieties as ‘Afghanica’ when speaking of their favourites and as ‘hash plants’ when talking generally of the strains found across India, Afghanistan and Pakistan. Many Indica-heads prefer their ganja without a trace of Sativa or Skunk, while some purists will only consume weed or hash that they know to be 100% Cannabis Indica

In years past, the most determined Indica-lovers have journeyed all the way to Pakistan, then across the Afghan border into ‘hashish country’ — the high reaches of the Hindu Kush between Chitral, Mazar-i-Sharif, down to Kandahar in the south — in search of pure, unaltered local seeds which might be brought home to grow into the Afghanica of their dreams.

A more reliable and cost-effective option is simply to obtain a packet of Sensi‘s Afghani #1. The very best parents from our unparalleled range of Afghani cultivars have been distilled into a single seed variety that gives growers textbook examples of the Afghanica genotype every time.

Anyone looking for a compact, fast easy-growing indoor strain capable of copious yields and almost-frightening resin production need look no further. Whether growers want uniform crops from seed or outstanding pure Indica mother plants to fill their flowering space with dynamic dark green clones, Afghani #1 has it covered.

Even first-timers find it hard not to succeed with this strain, and growers who bring out the full potential of Afghani #1 rank her among the finest original Indicas to be found anywhere.

And Dutch Passion is now selling as a special edition some Afghani #1 feminized seeds and they claim that it never was hibridised:

A pure variety, never hybridized, imported from Afghanistan in the early eighties. Afghani#1 has been part of the Dutch Passion Seed Catalog from 1991 till 1997. Afghani#1 does not have any relationship to our other varieties. Because of demand from our customers and the special qualities of “taste and high”, back again in our Seed Collection. A favorite of our “Smokers Test Team”.
Very Broad leaves, 100% Indica. Heavy buds with lots of resin. Some plants turn purple at harvesttime. Rather big flower to leaf ratio. Aroma and flavour are heavy, almost medicinal. Strong, physical high, narcotic. Average yields.

I would get some of those beans from Dutch Passion... but maybe that's because I already have the SensiSeeds strain

Good gardens

Hey sneakinman

I grow Maple leaf indica from sensi seeds and have now for quite a few years. There is rumors that it has changed and crossed with skunk but that simply isnt true and anyone making those statements simply hasnt grown it out. Mli is the F1 of two closely related landrace afgani's.

Its pure afghani, sweet maple flavor, very good potency, mould proof and really the very best representation of a good affie strain available in the retail market in my view. Ive grown probably 10-12 different affie strains from different companies and MLI is it. MLI puts Afghani #1 to pure shame in every category. Ive grown them both and no comparison.

Maple leaf is much better than Hgf's affie, It puts deep chunk to shame as well as petrola Headstash. You can smoke them all but you wont find an equal to MLI. Ive tried.

 

[Miguel Velcro]

Hey there Silverback, you got any pics of your MLI?

It'd be nice to see some shot's of an older MLI to compare to the plants I got from a couple of packs of MLI I grown recently.
I find it very difficult to believe that the MLI's I grew were the same as the old MLI some people rave about. It was all over the place and the smoke was very mediocre.
Most dissapointing.

I've also done Seedsmans Afghan#1.....that has definitely been hit with a dutch skunk#1. It's still an ok (ish!) smoke but it ain't pure afghan! It was much better than MLI though.
I understand Sensi's is crossed with skunk#1 too...

I'm holding out for some deep chunk.

 

[Hindu Killer]

Any of you guys sen a 88 to say 95 Sensi Seed catalogue??? Maple Leaf Indica wasnt named for maple flavor it was named for its leaves very wide resemble mape leaves and thew late Maple Leaf Wilson. I know this all to be fact. The Dronkers have adulterated it. It was originally a breeders pack item.

 

[Excessive]

marijuana-seeds.nl has Afghan on sale right now.

 

[Closet Funk]

There are alot of different Afghan's out in the market. Almost every seedbank carries a form of Affy. I think Deep Chunk is the Afghan to get but also heard that HGFS Afghan is choice too. I'm sure Sensi's version is nice too.

Hi all

Miguel, I dont have any pictures but your statement is interesting. I have heard repeatedly that the strain has changed and Ive heard of different phenos and other factors that growers have seen that I have never encountered. I went back and counted after reading your post and discovered this fact. I have grown out 17 packs of MLI since 2001 or 2, I cant remember and didn't date my notes. I have never seen what I would call more than 1 pheno. There are differences in height and branching length, but thats all. The average MLI grows to 5', has a headbud 6" long. Side branches range in lenght from 10", making almost a single cola plant, to those that grow to 18-24" which produce a bit more bush presence. The bushier plant gets a bit taller than the one with short side branches.

I usually try to keep at least 3O Mli seeds around. When I first heard the strain had changed I sort a panicked and contacted sensi seeds. They assured me that the plant had not changed and it is now the same as it has always been. I bought a new pack last season and grew them out. Sure enough, it was the same strain. Because it unerving to hear my favorite strain is being altered, i have another new pack for this year and Ill let you know, but honestly, Im so confused by these varied outcomes from a plant that is quite consistent. And with reguards to potency, Its allways been quite good, an 8 and sweet mapley flavor.

I don't want anyone to think that Im questioning their results because Im not. Its just confusing to me to hear attributes applied to a strain that I constantly grow and have grown consistently for years now and is so stable.

Oh well, I guess as long as it performs for me ill be happy.

Hey HK, you might be right about the name. It does have wide, fat, maple type leaves, but that flavor. yum yum. Get you some and try it.

I am still trying to figure out the attraction to deep chunk. I know it has so many fans but I can name 10 strains under 50$ that will blow it away in every category including potency, yield, and vigor. I guess one mans treasure is anothers trash.

 

[PDO]

dna has pure affy seeds out. im gonna get these.

pdo

 

[tripples]

im trying to get a ride on the DC bus myself.. silverback you obviously havent seen toms posts of his MONSTER DC's?? multiple pounds per plant.. i could be wrong was awhile ago i saw them and i dont feel like searching right now.. but i thought he said he pulled 8 pounds off of one plant.. those things were fuckin monsters!!! there goes your yeild and vigor category..

 

[tripples]

wow.. fuckin dank!!! killer shit tom killer shit.. and there goes that potency category as well..

 

[S_a_H]

A quick question about a male trifoliate Deep Chunk that I have going. I was told that it would put out less potent offspring. Would you agree ? or disagree ?

Of and damn those are sweet looking.

[Tom Hill]

Much closer to strawberries than corn....

Here are my thoughts SaH,

I disagree several fold with whoever told you that a plant with whorled phylotaxy (trifoliate) has odds stacked against it in regards to potency.

I do however believe that these plants have a high percentage (75% +/-) of males running. After that, if it is female, I'd place it in a category that I reserve for intersexed plants, & plants with crinkled leaves etc, plants that can't get right under "normal" conditions. I am a firm believer that a pioneering scientist in the future will link these type of (what I feel are environmental sensitivity traits) traits to positive outcome in regard to type/quality of high. At any rate, I firmly believe that it is not as simple as science currently pukes- though many disagree.

HI everyone,

Tripples, I havent seen Toms monster. He must have vegged the thing for 6 months to get it that size.

TomHill, I salute you and appoligize if there's been any offense! I certainly intended none. You dragging your ass around has made a better world for many. I don't want anyone to believe Im ragging on DC. Im a grower who pops seeds and waits for the harvest. DCdoesn't compete well in that arena, even though she may have lots of other special attributes. Plus, if a strain gives any grower joy isn't that what its all about? I hope all DC growers all the joy and success they can gather. Keep dragin TomHill.

Happy growing to all you DC growers.
