Or they visited the point of origin and payed money for it

Maybe they traded something for it?


In your case you may have the distinct fortune to blessed and gifted the landrace strains that you have be entrusted with keeping

Im picturing a square stone building of polished granite with a tightly manicured lawn and distinctly vacant appearance

The letter 'G' is carved boldly above the door "for ganja"

You probably meet in the basement and enter via clandestine tunnel to gather round with other cloaked individuals to receive these sacred seeds

I do understand the mentality

You have been sworn to only make outcrosses with your gifts never let it out in pure form ever

That's great if you can protect what you got That's perfectly fine!

No, I dont think I really dig the 200$ for 5 seeds deal

But this is marketing 101

Increase perceived value by raising the price and Increase perceived urgency by limiting the availablity to the extreme

Or, maybe it was something they never really wanted to sell in the first place so they priced it out of this world and limited it bigtime?


I'm all for revealing whatever there is to know about these strains for sale....great

Thanks for revealing this info about bangi Hz

I like to think for myself and do my own homework so if I dont agree with all everyone says thats just the way it is

I believe landrace genetics are important and you have been trusted with what you got thats what you have to do

Eventually cuts get out there and plants get seeded its just how nature works it wont be contained

Now who is creating a inflated value once they do hit the market ??

And they will hit the market

If it is out there lets find the correct story that goes with it....

I have alot of respect for the ACE people for their work and preservation of OldTimer'sHaze and their quest to bring outdoor sativas to cold climates

Great post HG and love the imagination. I pictured it as clear as you stated it about the sacred facility. Awesome...

I respect the 'preservers' but think sharing is the right way. Let the chips fall where they may.

USC is almost giving their seeds away at their price. Not getting a bad feeling on Cristalin at all.

If everything Thcvhunter says about Ace Seeds is true... this will very sad.

Thats true,preservers are too much manic in keeping this landraces
close to self... like they will loose importance if they share wide
and deep,on the other hand they usually bitchin how some strains
are loosed thru time...i bet just that same this preservers have good chunk of guilt why some stuff dissapear if they hold it too strong.. also those Cristalin prices are very low compared to everything else on market... i dont take for bad this kind of breeders as in the
end they made stuff avaible for people,not like their collegues that keep genetics tight and in narrow circle.. selfish..

So much for finding out which is the most potent Indica around.

This thread has been derailed in my view with shit slinging like so many others.

[hoki2test]

I always thought Purple Haze was the most potent Indica in the World?.....JOKES.......just trying to get people to lighten up

Around here there's three Sensi Hindu Kush going and while I haven't tried them obviously all 3 turned out female. 2 are in 1L pots and another is in a 4L and they have grown magnificently.

Nothing can stop them. The biggest is easily 65cm and has been “supercropped” thrice at the main stalk and many more on the resulting branches this just takes it all in its stride.

They're under 12:12 from seed and flowered at 3.5 weeks. Within two weeks of flowering they're just powering on. Each day brings almost a doubling of pistil numbers.

In coco they've been left a bit dry and wilted two or three times and they just keep on keeping on.

The 3 all have a sativa leaning and longer internodes, narrower leaf phenotype.

Don't know what sort of smoke they'll be and whether they're real landrace Hindu Kush but it's said that this very strain has been the progenitor to a huge part of today's family tree of hybrids.

Time will tell.

I deleted a couple of paragraphs on these lines and deleted them deciding that one more person saying it won't make a difference.

But I've decided that instead of trying to state it, that I do it. I practice it. Action, action, action. From the past several smokes I've realised that I have been blessed at the first stroke to have gotten two very nice females yielding effects that seem finely tuned by generations of hands that have been involved in that plant's life that I witnessed.

How it got to me is not important but the fact it did is important, to me. The next generation is already exponentially increased with new genetics from a sativa male hopefully elevating these to another level. The hand of fate is mysterious they say.

You can bet that when eyes are opened around here and people need the medicine, there'll be no stopping of those genetics getting out there with the work of my hands stamped on the new plants in its invisible blockchain in the sky

That the plant went through my hands freely to it's new carer is enough to satisfy me.

Most potent indica is Affy/Paki
For a single region...Paktika

Leb, Nepal, Morrocan are nice and gentle.
