Recently had someone show me this nug, calling it the Lambsbread. Now, I've seen old photos from the '70s of something that looked similar. Supposedly, Lambsbread was Bob Marley's favorite strain...and the guy who had this was Jamaican. So my question is: has anyone here ever really seen Lambsbread or does anybody know if this could possibly be Lambsbread?

The bud had a very sweet and fruity, but mellow aroma...the smoke had a smooth, organic taste. Despite the fact that you can see a couple of seeds pushing out on the bottom, I enjoyed smoking and smelling this bud very much.


Is it the Lambsbread?

Looks like it to me.I have seen it before. The picture fits the profile. Looks like it seeded also.Iwant some!

Keep the seeds and grow some out and see what happens. You may have just scored some good jamaican genes. I once grew a plant from a seed from a jamaican bag I got. I grew it outside and plant was huge.Mostly sativa. Something ended up eating though so I never got to smoke any. :(

Oh man. Looks like it has about 6 or 7 seeds in it. Look pretty viable too. Let me know if you grow those out, I'd like to see some pics of it in growth. I've heard good things about Lambsbread, how was the high of it? Damn I would love to grow Lambsbread, you are one lucky fellow. Supposed to be one hell of yielder from what I've heard. Keep it green.

Take care!

that jamaican tasted spicy and musky but didnt have much of a soaring sativa high that one comes to expect from a legendary sativa from jamaica. In order for a outdoor sativa to really show it's full potential, it must be grown at a high altitude in a tropical/hot climate, preferably near the equador as that will bring the thc out. I dont think the summers are long enough in upsate ny to support 100% sativa growth -

Yea I definetly think Phil is right with outdoor in NY. I never even try growing outdoor out here.

But as far as that being Lambsbread, it sure does look like it. I have never seen it in person - only in High Times...I can scan the article if you want, it shows pics of all the classic weed from the 70s and 80s up to NYC Diesel today.

With that being said, I've heard these 'legendary strains' were once the cream of crop for their time, but that nowadays they would be considered nothing special compared to the legendary strains of today.

So maybe when you missed that soaring sativa high, is it possible its just not really there anymore compared to todays genetics? Or maybe its just not really lambsbread.

It would be interesting to chat with somebody who has smoked todays greats as well as the legends of before my time and hear the comparison.

Unfortunately I don't own this nug...I was just lucky enough to see it, photograph it, and smoke it. So no seeds. Also, Phil is right. It didn't have a super-soaring high. It was just a very pleasant, sweet daytime smoke. Very enjoyable, but not a nuts high...

I have a clone of this just starting flowering cycle. It's heavily sativa in the leaves. I was told it's a Jamaican variety and the sample I had was excellent smoke and sativa high.

Ganja grows in abundance in Jamaica, but like any plant, it grows in some places better than others. Westmoreland, where the tourist mecca Negril is situated, produces some of the best ganja to be found on the island. Gone are the days of the legendary lambsbread, but many tasty new varieties have since emerged.
