Very informative thread, thank you vapor, and everyone else, especially le mano negra. I hope to grow out some Red Angola soon.

Nice shokdee, you will like her, especially grown outdoors in Thailand. I can't wait to see the pictures you post.
I love the Liamba smell, to me like wooden incense. I took one down last night and trimmed the fans this morning. She was making bananas all over, I think because I stress her, but I could not wait any longer for some of that flavor and her clear, strong, high. My room smells so good this morning, now patience for the dry and the cure is needed. I have learned that the Liamba is way, way better after a long cure.

Thanks Randy, and good luck to you. The seeds are originals and now in the care of Purple Clouds. He'd like to keep the Angola Red strain alive, and has kindly asked me to assist him. This looks like a stocky plant so we have the option to grow indoors, if outdoors hits any snags! Hold thumbs.

This thread is really helpful to both of us and I hope to post some pics later in the year. If all goes well, we should be able to produce a nice selection of seeds. Until then, I'll take a side seat and follow along. Thanks again to all the great breeders and growers on Mother Earth. Wishing you all the best.

thanks for the info and pics everyone.

i grew some angola roja last year , but lost all plants but one female before i could make seeds. what little i did get try off the plants was an electric mind buzzing high. i also found the angola red got a lot better with a long cure. the plant that survived has a very nice woody/lemony/floral smell to her.
i'm glad i saved seeds in case of mishaps. hopefully we can preserve this strain in thailand

a pic of the survivor.

I cut and dried the first one. Not much in weight but tasty smooth smoke with a beautiful euphoric high and it's not even cured yet. Very sticky.

Hi Randy, very nice buds you got there !
Do you (or any other sativa heads) dry with the fan leaves on ? What's the benefit of this besides slower, steadier drying ? Just a curiosity...
Peace, HJ.

Thanks BKF I am for sure bro.
Thank you too Husky Jackal. I live in a cool humid place and things dry slow no matter what. Those leaves came off so I could dry them faster because I was anxious to smoke some and see how the flavor was. I packed most of it into a little tin to cure it over the next few months.

Too bad AngolaxMeao Thai is no longer available on their website. Is it very different from their Golden Tiger?
I'm about to harvest their Malawi strain in 3-4 weeks. They already look very promissing.

No deficiency showing in any other plants in the room. It is planted in coco so plenty of K and I add alfalfa, crab meal, and kelp water with teas.
She's a beauty but inside with 400w she doesn't produce much this pheno.

cool pictures folks! love the african cannabis! Seems like it is being discovered again by a
new/old generations of weedies. Much thanks To LMN for his works! can you say foresight! I have a few seeds{have a few originals from LMN left too} that should be femmed/selfed. Nanners made a few seeds at the end of the cycle.....So we will start some of them and see what we see....

I use CeramicMH and HPS 400w. I am on a 10/14 light schedule. That could be the cause of the purple leaves and the nanners.
Here's the Liamba #2 pheno
