what happened to the oaxacan 79 cross with the 12-13 finger oaxacan?

[TuDank]

So is oaxacan 79 intended for release this year still? People are writing that it will come out this year but i doubt it. Some people are still getting some seeds though apparently.

Also I disagree with Dubi that landrace seeds like these aren't in high demand. Among landraces the fairly fast flowing pure mexicans seem to be highest in demand, as evidenced by Snowhigh's mexican crosses released a week before 4/20 that sold out in about 1 day....for an insane $250/10ea....and are now fetching $500/10ea -.-. I would wager that these would outsell anything else in the catalog.

I strongly suspect that people just want to keep the legendary genetics for themselves, which of course people are free to do...but come on at least admit it lol

TuDank, we must be bros from different hos. I gave up on the '79 being released, along with the Michoacan. Why are these old exotic Mexicans so damn hard to get now, when they were plentiful in all the bags of pot back then?

Maybe this is karma for humans being crap or something, I am lost really. I know a few of those old lines were magic in terms of consciousness expansion. I can say the Jarilla and the Acapulco Gold from Bodhi are for real and worth getting. I managed to get some Mextiza as I figured the Oaxacan would never arrive.

Hey Yesum, maybe bros from different hoes but i'm of the younger stock (24) haha. Read enough of your posts to know you're an oldtimer(lucky you)

I'm just trying to find 2 fine uplifting no-ceiling type inbred lines to make a cross with to have a little bit of genetic diversity and then start maintaining that line through some form of linebreeding, cause i'm definitely not into modern couchlock type stuff.

I've got the Ethiopian Ace released this year and i suspect i'll be using that...reading through all the smoke reports i could find and it just sounds almost perfect, feelgood, no ceiling, not racy. Now just wish i could have the Oaxacan to cross it to lol.

Had my eyes on that acapulco. Still at least 1 website where one could get it. Do you know about when it would finish outdoors, and how did you like the effect? For me it can't finish after mid decemberish outdoors. Have my eyes on Tropicalseeds king congo and Durban Punch as well.

sounds good dubi

[yesum]

My Acapulco Gold finished in 13 weeks but indoors under 9 hour 40 minutes of light per day. I would guess it would go into December outdoors as it is listed a 16 week strain.

If you can cover the plants outdoors you can do anything you want in terms of flowering time. These old raw lines need to be worked thru to get a stellar individual. I have a crap load of interesting old genetics now hope to work thru them all and get a keeper from all.

The one AG had a trip out effect for the first 30 minutes and the other did not. The trip was not distorted but rather opening of the 'third eye' is as close as I can say on it. Friendly high not scary.

You will notice most of these strains come from high mountains, and if you can you should grow them at high elevation. I may find a way to finish a few that way in the future. I think getting the full effect is maybe dependent on doing it that way.

One neophyte recently complained about "hermies" when in fact he was complaining about males coming from a pack of standard seeds.

But I still want some Mexican strains in my hands.

Hahaha the fem cultivators dont Know anything about landraces and good plants... they just want to smoke something sweet haha

Mhh Oaxaca79, that's a hard Theme. It's one of those "Mystical" strains every Old School Cannabis lover is hunting for, hard to get, but not impossible. But yeah, sometimes the Hunt for something is more interesting as the "loot" at the End, right?! It's like the hunt for a beautiful women, when it's available for everyone it wouldn't be half as interesting. A 1000$ bottle of wine is more interesting as a 5$ bottle of wine.

I also not own the Oaxaca79 which Dubi and Charlie are owning, but 3 other nice Regular Oaxaca lines +a fem. Oax from Eskobar. But yeah maybe one Day those Oax79 find their Way to my little collection, till then im happy with what i have. Patience is a important thing.


Peace

The chase is intoxicating. ^^ No doubt about it. I am gonna f2 the Mextiza and then isolate the Oaxaca from the rest. From what I have read, the Mextiza does not lack anything the Oaxaca has to offer, if anything it is enhanced.
