Is a pity that the haze A male died,i love the highs from all the A crosses I've grown(not that there are many about!).
Never had any incense smells though,more on the dark leathery,musky,liver and catpissy smells.I'd really like to see an A5/panama cross,could see those 2 mixing well together.

To me incense IS leathery and musky, with an oily perfume element. I read Haze A was what gave the Frankincense aromas to old Nevilles Haze, Jack Herer, Kali Mist, NL#5 x Haze etc. From what I can tell, Haze C gave the exotic, tropical flowers and rain forrest notes. Possibly people don't all relate to the same descriptives and would disagree on the words that describe the same smoke, even if it was from the same shared joint

Tops are in the cloner now. Few more days and flip.

Hi beanz,

So glad you have had the chance to receive these and already started them, they are gonna rock in your outdoor garden and under your good cares. Can't wait to see progresses. All the best!

From your description A5 X to a purple haze x malawi male would be a very interesting plant. or maybe a Purple haze X PCK for something a little less racy

Cheers

Hi Maple_Flail,

Yes, i think A5 will be eventually crossed with some of our males to produce regular hybrids with her, we harvested a few regular A5 and Neville's Haze x Mauritius seeds last outdoor season, not many, but enough to test them, should be a crazy one

Hi Spaventa,

I understand your idea, but take in consideration that ErdPurt is a rich CBD strain and it's not a good idea to cross a plant with a very high THC chemotype which has a special effect (like i think it's the case with A5) with a CBD rich strain, because the CBD content in the hybrid will block the qualities from the high THC chemotype of the A5, you will definately will find interesting earlier plants with incensey aromas in a cross of this kind, but i'm sure you will be dissapointed with the smoke, unless you go to F2 generation to select again only for high THC chemotype without CBD, earliness and incensey aromas of your taste, which will take quite a lot of effort and run populations of decent size.

Honestly, if you are looking for a fast flowering and stable strain with complex incensey aromas then Kali China is a great choice

Glad to see the new A5 x Malawi and Nevil x Malawi hybrids already prepared for the flowering, you are going to be the first one to flower these 2 new hybrids if i'm not wrong ... upcoming weeks are going to be exciting!

Hi jaded1,

You are right, it's a pitty that Haze A male is no longer alive, it would be great to have had the chance to cross the pure Haze male A with other nice sativa strains without having to add NL5 in the mix, no matter how long the flowering time would be or how would they perform indoors. But life goes on ....

As we speak we are already pollinating A5 and Nevil's haze with Panama Goddess reversed these will be the upcoming hybrids to test using these genetics from Nevil.

I hear you about the cross i suggested not being suitable, this is the difference between us - I'm just a grower who wants it bigger, better, faster with and a free gift lol I understand breeders deal with the reality of genetics and its not as simple as it appears.

Kali China is added to my "to do" list, thanks

Here are the girls this morning. They have pretty much recovered from transplanting and topping. Hoping they will really pic up now. The snips in the cloner haven't rooted yet but its imminent.

They have been on 12/12 for 3 days now.. so yeah, no messing here, I want to be smoking these ladies by end of June

I really hope theres variation and a keeper that has nice Malawi expression. I heard recently from a grower who found full on loud Frankincense in his Malawi.
If the incense of the genetics from Neville combine with the Malawi aromas, it could be amazing - I guess this is what Ace were aiming for?

[dubi]

Hi Spaventa,

The main goal with these first Malawi crosses is try to reach even higher levels of potency and very long lasting rocket trip effects, although Malawi also contributes with great yields, tight buds, high flower/leaf ratio, very high resin production and huge trichome size. Both A5 and Malawi are exceptional in potency so if both blend well in this F1 the results can be outstanding, but we never know until test the offspring.

I think the upcoming A5 x Panama Goddess and Nevil's x Panama Goddess hybrids we are already producing will have much more potential to produce the loud incense aromas you are looking for .... Panama Goddess is also amazing regarding incensey aromas, so combined with the A5's aromas the terpene result could be a haze incensey heaven.
