Southern Sativas sunning in a hot summer sun

[four seasons]

Thanks all. Raco that male is special indeed. The old Mendo pheno I was lucky to get leans heavily towards the Nep line.
The flavors are extremily pronounced perfumed old school spicy hash. Simply the best tasting hashy strain I have ever encountered.
Thanks for these freebies.

This summer season has been a tough year indeed. Some of My gardens were flooded out by the heavy rains. I lost at least half of what I planted for the summer season.

I still have a few at other spots but its been a very rough year. I lost a Greenhouse Trainwreck, Cannabiogen Caribe, One out of two Kali Mist, Two Guawis, One Nep Jam,etc... Most lost to flooding and a few to pest. Our area has not seen flooding like this in over twenty years.



Dejavu..Old Micheocan Mexican strain. This was harvested. The plant suffered dearly






Zamal\Ultra Skunk, Female Seed Co. Nice Mango aroma.This was harvested




The worst lose of the season. I was really looking forward to this one.

Old Timers Haze. It was standing in two inches of water. We had a major flash flood. Real Bummer....




Congo\ Old Afghan from Amsterdam, Two weeks to go on this one

 

[four seasons]

Jamaican. Old Line I personaly collected in the late eighties. Started in August, four weeks to go. This one likes it wet and humid.





Spacequeen\Snowdawg TGA seeds. Done





Shiskaberry 2001Spice Of Life\ Deep Chunk Bubba Kush Cannacopia seeds two weeks to go. The Shisk adds mold resistance.






Kali Mist 2 weeks to go

Cambodian\Haze Skunk hybrid just barely hanging on. The branches are very fragile. It is falling all over the place. Three weeks to go.
Sorry for the picture quality I took these not my wife.

a pity to see some of them dying, yeap, weather is changing a lot, here we got also sudden floods and then months of drought. Bit crazy. Fortunatelly not much mold here

Thx for pics of Jamaican always loved to see those tasting happy weeds.
Hope harvest comes well and you manage to enjoy lots of fruits yet
best

Sorry to see such a fine selection getting flooded out 4seasons, the opposite of 09 here in Spain, it has been too dry before the monsoon and hurricane season arrived....Still, with a selection of different varieties you have hedged your bets well against Mother Natures big bag of surprises. Variety may be the spice of life, but is also the outdoor growers saviour.

The Kali looks like she will impress you ! That is going to be a fine smoke, look forward to the smoke report... I am also running the FMS Zamal Skunk, half the buds on the plant are purple, half green, early bits seem nice, not a daywrecker like Kali, but it is early days. The Spacequeen\Snowdawg TGA seeds is another that looks very good, cannot see any rot or nonsense there, "Looks Indoor" but with outdoor kick.... nice.

Amazing pics of the several sativa's in the wild.I've noticed myself that the old Jamaican lines are very resistant against moulds.A Jamaican Pearl (Jamaican pheno) which i still have in the garden (52N) right now shows no mould at all, although we had bad humid cold weather.

I see that the Michoacán strain is less leafy than the Oaxacan strains.

for you that you grow in cannabis hostile environment.

Namaste

Thanks All.
I collected the micheocan strain from a friend who DOES and did live in the Mecheocan area of southern Mexico. The seeds were sent to me in the early ninties by my good friend. For years I have grown these because I enjoyed the varieties not because they are authentic Micheocan. Who knows maybe they are not 100% authentic. Lots of differnt stock in Central and south America ,Doesnt matter to me. Ill leave the botanical science to the pros on this and other forums. I am not sharing photos of my crops for glory, others can have that, I share because that is what my heart tells me to do.
Anyways Thanks again Charlie and to everyone.

Sorry for the picture quality I took these not my wife.

Maybe you should stick to the growing and let your wife do the picture taking

Man, seeing that giant OT Haze in such bad shape brings a tear to my eye
What a bummer. I hope all your other successfull flowers make up for it

 

[bonecarver_OG]

wow shame on such nice plants better luck next season.

Thanks
I still have a few plants left so all is not lost.
I reallly was looking forward to long season Haze. Its been years since Ive grown a good pure Haze. I still managed to get a few seeds out of the plant. I dusted a few branches with Sam Skunmans Haze\Skunk and Rez Alpha Diesel. I wonder if I can still do something with the plant material. I still see visible Trichs.Maybe cut it down and use it for baking??


Hey Bonecarver I havnt seen you around since I first posted last year in 08. You were a big help getting this old man familiar with the posting info. Thanks again


I seeded a bottom branch of the Dejavu with very fine Nep Jam pollen from a fav.male I picked out. The Dejavu is very candied grape tasting and adding the Strawberry funk from the Nep Jam might be a good cross. If Charlie doesnt mind, I was going to send him these as a return favor. Maybe somebody could enjoy them. No cost, no strings. If no one is interested, no biggie. Just returning Karma.

Elmanito The Jamaican is the one strain I have managed to pull off year after year with little or no problems. The smoke is smooth with a mild high ,berries and earth with faint citrus.

Bacchus you are so correct. She calls the shots and takes the shots.

Ureapwhatusow -I like that...

Chaos- I like the quote you posted by Julian...

I wouldn't mind trying that cross out 4S. I also have some Michoacan that I will be growing next season I will be doing an open pollination if I get a male or males.

Hey how long was the Haze in flower before the floods?

A few we checked on yesterday.
All of the plants I planted in the ground this year either grew slow and had problems or died from the floods.




Kali Mist This one was planted in a 10 gallon container. It grew much better, nice large solid kolas.





Jamaican, 20 gallon container
Big colas on this one. Doing good. two weeks left

 

[four seasons]

Congo Afghan cross planted in ten gallon container. Terrible picture. The plant is falling all over the place. Very heavy yield.



This last picture was taken after the flowers made it home. She used a flash,big difference.
