Maui Wowie 1978 aka Cherry Bomb from Mr Greengenes.

Not just as fruity or cherry flavoured as I was expecting but beautiful plant for sure. Mr Greengenes toldme that the cherry flavour traits were less abundant because of his selection for potency, but I'm hoping to find it eventually even if it's on my own hybrids.

A pleasure to grow. Pretty in pink:

Hi Mustafunk
It is a great pleasure to read your comments.
Congo purple is a plant that leaves you speechless, a real lady.
very beautiful and elegant, despite the size...
fantastic also Maui Wowie 1978
really happy to be able to follow your thread, thanks for sharing

Always a pleasure to see what you're up to Mustafunk. That purple congo reminds me of some africans with the low potency and high frost coverage. It seems to happen often that way.

After a short break offline and busy with work I'd like to keep the thread up to date with some pics from the past season or current projects.

This is a beautiful X18/PTK line that my brother Raco shared with me during a visit to his place and I've been reproducing since then, I think it's a great Pakistan hashplant with lots of interesting traits to work with.

I particularly love the apple bubblegum sweet phenos over the earthy/chemmy ones. Raco did a great job with his Tom Hill grow and he selected some amazing keepers indeed, it's a shame that many of them were never preserved though.

Some pics from a California Orange S1 line I've received from Stash, the man with a thousand seeds. I was hoping to find some unique citrus phenos and interesting plants to keep around the place but I've ended a bit dissapointed with potencies and terpenes too.

Initially I was quite happy with those, nice "sativa" looks and during the early flowering the orange smell was interesting on one of the females, but as the plant kept maturing those fruity monoterpenes changed a bit and kinda faded away. Nothing like I was expecting...

Stash told me he had similar experience with this batch. I guess I will keep trying to find the legendary Aeric77 Cali-O clone that Bodhi, Chimera and some others used for their breeding projects if I wanna try the real McCoy that originated the citrus wave!

Bud detail, unfortunately no more pictures from them since I've had an issue with my camera at the time:

Past season I've also been pretty excited about this beautiful Central African Republic landrace, this is a very special line since it was brought as a gift by a French documentary cameraman who travelled to the area and was able to obtain some seeds from his pygmy local assistant for a friend of him who asked for a nice souvenir. Then the line was shared among some friends from the Vibes Collective circle and I've been wanting to grow her since it ended in our hands!

The Baka people are one of the few pygmie populations left in Africa, most of them live around Central African Republic, Cameroon, Uganda and Congo. Most pygmy cultures still have a big attachment to the "bangi" (that's how they call the ganja there). They normally smoke everyday, both for working, relaxing, hunting and ceremonial purposes. So it was a legit chance to cultivate something unique and untamed, with a proper african ganja heritage. We know that the pigmies settled all over the Congo River basin, so they have carried their seeds as a part of their own culture all over those places.

The traditional gourd water pipes:

They are mostly hunters and gatherers, true jungle people. Unfortunately they are often seen as inferior or primitive tribes by others and their situation is quite dramatic.

Anyway the line just looks like some other untamed African landraces from Equatorial Africa, very spicy, wild and fortunately not very hermie prone neither extremely long flowering:

Very fluffy tops too:

She also has the classic african leaves, subtle serration and often no tiny leaves on the fans:

Latest shots from the pygmie weed from the Baka tribe in Central African Republic.

A truly untamed beauty:

Despite the wispy structure, the flowers had lots of a nice and aromatic resin:

Sex was firm on all the females but males were interesex:

Last bunch from the Central African Republic pymgy weed... they were grown in small 2l containers so right before the harvest time the plants were fading into a beautifull lime green color.

I can almost feel the smell coming from those buds! Dark african woody spicy ganja.

The production is quite ridiculous but I'm sure about the potential for breeding projects.

Nice foxtails and resinous calyxes too.

It was a pleasure to grow such line. Unfortunately we are having some issues on working with her because of the abundance of intersex males. Long flowering + intersex males=pain in the ass. A good friend with lots of passion and expertise is focusing on preserving her at the moment though, so I guess I'm moving into the next one.

Might be a pain in the ass, but that fade is beautiful!

It's always such a pleasure seeing your work, Mustafunk, thanks for posting the pictures!

This are some pics from our Zamal GN Collection P1 keeper, the terpene palette, structure, growth pattern and characteristics are very similar to the so called Guerrit's Zamal A, they are sisters actually. The line is quite homogeneous and a pleasure to grow and smoke.

She has been enjoying the sunny outdoors the past season:

picture.php


Detail of one cola... she's quite leafy but oh my, that short noded structure is killing me all the time! She could make 2-3 feet long colas given the right space and time! LOL

picture.php


This is a clone of the same keeper indoors, I've done some test crosses with her the past season and hopefully more will come hoping to find my perfect smoke, we love how she gets us high like kite and the loud tropical and exotic terpenes she boasts. Mind-bending lady she is:

picture.php


Last but not least, some pics from a few DTC99 (Dutch Grown F2s) females i've grown outdoors as well:

I've always wanted to try this one and I kinda liked it, great NDL hybrid with beautiful flowers and nice structure. Didn't love all the C99 influence though... she didn't cut down the flowering time that much and you get a bit of a come down if you toke too much.

Now i'm on the hunt for the perfect thai in order to combine her with some interesting south african genetics. I love all this kind of "intercontinental hybrids".

Enjoy the weekend.
