Thing is, I can only grow 16 legal plants with our 12 OMMP and 4 Recreational
Choice and space is limited as to what we grow.

I've puffed all that in Peru over the last 20+ yrs, and I'm not impressed with any of the herb, and this is easily 100x better than any street weed in sold in Peru. It ranks with the top 3 I've encountered in the last 40+yrs of consuming cannabis.

I was at the right place the right time. Chulachaki gave me a gift and it materialized.

Subbed can't wait to see more on this!

any updates on the Kotosh purpura? Those tall standing trichomes probably smell wonderfully exotic!

Hola Lost Tribe!
yep, today I cut the purple color pheno, I woke up with this intense feeling of "cut me" so I went out took pics comuned for a bit, burnt some sage, then pulled he up by the roots, washed the root ball and now she is hanging here in my lapidary shop next to me while I write this post.

she just quit growing, squeezed out all she could. during the last 5 days she produced few if any stigma/pistils or caylexs. all growth has stopped as of last week, the oil glans are extremely white/grey blue with what I could find a dozen turning red orange.


















a few observations
the plants are 6months 1 week old as of Dec 22 2015
started from seed very late in the season on june 15th 2015 or so
our first serious freeze and cold streak started Nov 23rd 2015

my temps have been at 68f highs and 49f - 56f lows in the mini hoop outside. I think this might be a factor in the purple pheno's fluffy development. she's definately not tight, but more delicate in structure than most nugs I've grown indoor since 1980 and outdoors since 1974.

I'm thinking if temps were warmer she may have grown a bit larger and maybe thicker, not sure don't know

will find out next season 2016...stay tuned

plans are to grow out several clones, make pure seed from all 3 phenos with however many males germ from the next batch of seeds I start next season go from there, make new strains etc...not sure yet., that's just a few months away here in Oregon.

here's the other 2 pheno's

these 2 are still squeezing out flesh, I'm thinking Feb 1st 2016...let's see.

for ease, I call them the long hair and short hair pheno's

Long hair




Short Hair





All 3 pheno's in one last pic before I pulled the purple pheno

Interesting plants and story! Sucks about the snow...

Can't wait to hear a smoke report on the purple one you cut.

Show us some legerdemain art

I would offer my services as a free snow remover but the commute would kill me

Very interesting thread, I thoroughly enjoyed reading this.

Stoked to see how this goes.

Cheers

after a few hrs of snow removal i realized I had 80 feet of pipe warming cable used to keep your home water pipe thawed in a big freeze.
I was flipping homes in CO redesigning homes with grow rooms and re-selling them back in CO for immense profits. I always used pipe heating cables on the water pipes in the walls of the grow rooms that were exposed to the outsode for extra insurance against freezing.

Let's just say there is great opportunity for someone if they have worked in the construction industry as a supervisor and knows how to build homes from start to finish. Big money $$$.

I draped the cable over the top of the mini, S fashion from the ground, over and over side to side, it melted the snow, plus added a bit more warmth.

saved the girls

yay!

Thanks for sharing. I'm a newbie from Perú and are extremely interested in local landraces, like the one you described/shared.
