Has anyone had much luck bredding durban poison with a C99? I want a sativa which will grow well here at the 45th latitude and I cant think of anything that sounds better than a fruity and terpene loaded sativa.

Next season I was thinking about trying my own cross with a source of feminized durban and regular c99, look for a male c99 and cross witht he most promising durban...profit!

Hi Frenic try Muai thai from flash seeds, almost pure sativa and can finish in your latitude.

With a flowering period of 95 - 110 days she might be able to grow at my latitude but certainly not my longitude. The point of the durban poison x c99 cross is to get the 50 day mark flower of the c99 and the large landrace terpene portfolio of a similarly short flowering of 60 days and a tolerance to some cold nights. Ya dig?

C99 can't handle cold, humidity, bugs.... I would try to find something better to cross to the Durban, C99 is a fickle bitch

If you're looking for short flowering, mold/cold resistant sativa (ish) strains to cross with Durban, you might want to look at some nepali strains.

Derg Cora Collective maintains the Bluehemp Baglung Nepali line that finishes in ~8-10 weeks and is supposed to be pretty euphoric. It also has a frequent incidence of deep purple phenotypes, if that matters to you.

I know Ace and Cannabiogen have some Nepali crosses as well, but I'm not sure about flowering times.

You won't know unless you try. Since you can't be certain which traits from either parent will be dominant in a cross until you grow it out, the only way to know is to do it.

In my experience using C99 as the male has led to shorter flowering time and more bulk and resin production. Your experience may be different. You won't know until you try.

looks like it will be done by end of September at 41 north.
