Here are a couple of old school Nevil Ortega's. I crossed my Kanak Balochistan x Maple Leaf into it.

Gonna pop them soon. 💯🕊

Here are the Type II/Indica leaves of my reverse engineered Northern Lights. I think it's safe to say there was a _little_ Afghan history in the creation of NL ;) :

But NL is definitely not pure Type II/Indica, like they used to say in the '90s:

Doesn't look much like a Type II/Indica, does it? ;)

And before you young, smart Millennial whipper-snappers comment on either over-watering or over-fertilizing, you always have to keep in mind the _environment_ the plant/photo is in _before_ you make snap judgments and comment.

Posted this pic in the how do you sativa people do it in a 4x4 thread in the forum we don't talk about, and one of the "elder experts" there expressed his opinion that I was either over-watering or over-fertilizing my plants.

Btw, the temperature inside the tent when I took this shot was in the mid-30s Fahrenheit and the RH was in the '90s, hence the clawed leaves. o_O

I ain't saying I've got the _best_ Afghan, and I've never sold shit to anybody, so nobody could get it anyways. But being the proud Papa I am, I'd like to think that _my_ shit is better than everybody else's.

But unlike the typical NL, it definitely _stinks_. o_O

It's funny because in the Big Book of Buds it actually states that it was crossed with Afghan...

I've never tried barney's farm genetics but wondering if anyone has tried their Afghan hashplant? It looks interesting but can't find any reviews on the tinternet

I have some Afghann 90 from the real seed company waiting to be popped..

Little bit on the description; (Dutch-American heirloom)
Pure Afgan indica type heirloom -direct from 1990 Dutch seed bank.
Fascinating write up on it for those who are interested in its lineage.

Hope to get them up and running after the summer, I'm also curious has any members got any experience with them.

Peace out...

Afghaan 90 is excellent. It’s one of my favorite all time smokes. Really old school effects, doesn’t lay you out on the couch but the buzz is definitely Indica in nature. I wish I knew more about the origins of the line though, I think all we know is what is listed on the RSC website that it was acquired in Amsterdam in 1990 but I would love to know more such as what area in Afghanistan was it originally collected from and when

I’ve got a grow journal on them and the rsc c99. It lost a few photos in the website migration, but all the info is still there. They grew very true to the rsc description. I still have 6 I want to use in crosses, they cross out very well too, I have a great afghan 90 x c99 I’ve been running lately that I almost always keep as personal smoke.

I can offer Balkh F4, Balkh F5 Ouzbé F16(very small quantity), balo x maruf, (balo x maruf)x balkh F4, (Balo x maruf)x ouzbé F15
These are the beginnings of work aimed at diluting hermaphroditism, so we decided to stack several afghans, here the hermis was the male Maruf (very weak 4 to 5 pistils at the very beginning of flo).
The last tests only on 10 beans (I know, but I couldn't throw more), were very conclusive for me, because zero hermis, and a structural improvement which passes however by an over assembly of this one, if not too columnar for my taste, but much remains to be observed and I don't have forcement more place for that before next year, so if anyone's interested, I'll give them a piece of my work, I'm just waiting for feedback and to say who you got it from if you're using it for your own projects, I don't mind if people want to do business, but be honest about where it comes from.
Hi befa,
I am in search of untainted landrace indica genetics especially from Afghanistan for private growing, preservation and possibly some crosses I'd find interesting.
Sadly in my country there are pretty much to none reputable seed banks that have 'true' landraces as regular seeds in stock.
I'd be very thankful to you and of course would give back something to you and the community from my work with your seeds. :)
Best regards

hello ossi grower

it's not befa the grower of the Afghans who describes it's a troll a jealous his male maruf nothing good

I have been doing the balhk for several years and today I upgraded it to f5.
it is a fairly stable product at the terps level (burnt rubber lemon)
and sexually stable.

several crosses were also made with balhk (Colombian Mexican etc.)

I will post some photos of the balhk f5.
