Jamaican bag seed - have you seen this before? - Landraces - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

Homebrewer · 12-08-2011, 10:31 PM

I bought a bag of about 12 grams worth down in Montego bay while I was on vacation and found only 6 seeds in the mix. Unbeknownst to me, those beans made their way home in our luggage (beans can be very sneaky sometimes) and when I came across them again, I decided to give them a go.

So four of the six germinated and I noticed this on one of the new sprouts. Has anyone seen resin this early in the process? Whether it's a male or a female, it may be a keeper. I'll update the progress in a few months.

Looking good bro! That seedling will most likely be a keeper can't wait to see it when she grows up! Please keep us updated

Yes, those seeds are sneaky little critters. Hoping it's a gurl but even pollen would be great in this case. Best wishes.

Yes that frost or velvet like stuff is a good sign, I'll bet it stinks in veg pretty good!

I thought it was fuzz but a blow-up appears to show heads. Very interesting.

They're definitely heads (no stalks and the heads are cloudy) as I checked them out with my 60-100x magnifier. Whether that means anything or not, time will tell and I'll be sure to keep this thread updated. The three other seedlings under my magnifier appear to just have a normal leaf texture; fuzz or tiny hairs.

I hope we get to see more of "shim".
