Arrow Looking for "Michigan Landrace" genetics

Hey everyone,

I have a couple questions and I hope my fellow Michiganders can assist me in my search.

Recently, a friend of mine introduced me to a concentrate that he said had been floating around the Northern LP and the UP called 'Purple Pinconning Paralyzer'. After trying the strain and falling in love with the aroma and effect, I was wondering:

Are there old school genetics/crosses that have been floating around in these parts that could be cultivated and shared more abundantly?

I'm unabashedly nostalgic about cannabis and while I'd love to have all the classic exotic landraces, or the hottest new GSC-cross. There is a part of me that would love nothing more than to buck the system with some strains that've just been under the radar for 30+ years or something like that. So here are my questions;

Where should I start? And do any of you know of any strains that are still available that could be categorized as a new Michigan landrace?

I'm not looking for a direct link to some strain guide or seedbank, I'd really like to hear the opinion of anyone that has ever grown Purple Pinconning Paralyzer or anything like that.

Cheers!

I'd consider a "landrace" the product of generations of open pollination of fields many hectors in size with a phenotype throw of like 1 in 10k. For example the Afghan, Malawi and Thai regions and associated landraces. I don't believe crops like that have existed in Michigan in modern times brother ;-)~

That said, Michigan has many historically notable breeders.

And after further research, I feel that the term heirloom would better suited to the question that I'm asking.

And with that understanding, are there any breeders or strains you would recommend me attempting to hunt down? Or do you have any more info on the strain I mentioned.

We have numerous old clone only cuts here in the Mitten. I think a lot of them were brought in and renamed over the years but we also have strains born and bred here.

It is all in who you know.

I believe the creator of Pinconning Paralyzer is a local multiple sclerosis patient named Larry Myers. As you can imaging naming a strain after your home town in the 80s was not a great idea, especially once High Times began writing about it. That said, he was raided in the late 80s and lost everything. I'm sure if you look really hard you could find both still floating around today though ;-)~

I really appreciate all the info!

I'm just asking because the story behind the strain has me curious about what genetics Michigan has introduced to the world.

I'll keep digging. This topic has me wanting to go strain hunting.

I believe MotaRebel Genetics (Michigan breeder) has a Purple Pinconning Paralyzer cross named Pinco Kush (P3xSFV). Good luck on your hunt.

I appreciate the info; another good lead to follow. The Purple Pinconning is becoming a quest for me. I hope to find her soon.
