White-out, ears ringing, face gets hot, chest pounding, tunnel vision, hands get numb, i'm blacking out, i must sit down now!
I have low blood pressure and sometimes i can get that effect by holding in a hit too long. Usually it takes a potent Sour Diesel to do that to me.
Nigerian you say? SIGN ME UP, I'M IN!
That's the exact effect AK Bean Brains mentions in his potcast with TK/NL5 Haze. I've gotten the impression that some Congos and Malawis can do the same thing. Anybody found that crazy scary buzz in Axis? Jungle Spice? Goldstar? It's not the kind of weed I'd want for the day-to-day but I'd love to have one to shut up the "mister smartypants" types if the need arose. ;)

Goldstar Lotus ia strong, but not those effects in my experience. Too much influence from the Sensi Star and Snow Lotus.
Non-Bodhi related, Cindy Congo from KOS gets pretty close to scary highs like that.

Really?!?!! That's the last thing I would have expected from an equatorial African sativa but that's great news to me! One of my most prized scores is a pack of Nigerian Space Probe (the same Nigerian I presume with his Kashmir male). I'm super excited for that one but I didn't think that would have the slightest potential for early outdoors. That's cool... opens up some possibilities for my pollen-chucking schemes.

The nigerian probe finishes in 8 to 12 weeks from what i saw in my pack. Plants are unique and the buzz is as well . Top shelf sativa straight up and ive got 2 keepers out of 1 pack

The mom of Nigerian Space Probe was Big Sur Nigerian

Thank you! I forgot about that... my head was a bit fuzzy last night. That one's not necessarily RMan related is it? Just a special Nigerian cut from the Big Sur area, right?
Big sur is zacatatcious purple (Mexican sativa) x mazar. Old 60's and 70's style of smoke from California. I know @The Mantis has some big sur from Coastal; he can probably give better info than I.

Hmm... now I'm confused again. Is "Big Sur Nigerian" a hybrid of Nigerian and BSHB? Or is it a Nigerian cut that comes from the Big Sur area of California. From prior research, I was thinking it was the latter, but maybe I got that wrong.
I was under the impression it was a landrace cut bodhi sourced from someone in the big sur area. Plant looks like a landrace sativa with its appearance and structure which is unlike anything in the stable whatsoever.Its a Wild looking plant

I figured it was a personal hybrid that he's playing with, sort of like Lush. Never released as a f1 hybrid but kept as breeding stock to see what can be found.

I could be wrong, but I believe Bodhi said he got some pushback on working with the BSHW/BSHB (he called his Big Sur Holy Bud bc he wasn't sure it was the original line I think), so I'm guessing the "big sur nigerian" is really just a bshw x nigerian (or nigerian x bshw) that he's using in the cross to stay away from using the straight line bshw.

hope that makes sense, and i'm pretty sure that's whats up. if i'm wrong, please someone correct me. supernatural selections is his ibl x ibl (or f1 hybrid) line

I've been trying to recall Reef ever doing a specific Nigerian x Afghan line, but I'm coming up empty (could've been after I stopped paying attention). Somewhere I have a PDF of an RMS catalog from ~2006. ICM's strainguide (taken straight from his old catalog) lists Nigerian Nightmare/Nightmere as a Nigerian x Unknown, could easily see it being one of the Afghan lines he was always working with (if it were Petrolia Headstash I'd think he'd just say so or make reference to a pre-Soviet Afghani).

Just an update on my girls. Lady bugs have got my mealys under control. Finally. Over priced imported ones disappeared. Two kinds of native species are getting a colony going. I have baby alligators on several plants.

The Lucky charms is slowest grower. Getting bushy at almost four feet. Snow Temple is five feet. Wide node spacing. The Dragon Fruit is six foot. By far the fastest growing of the three. Also wide node spacing. The purple candy stripes are coming back. Think the stress of the bugs was taking its toll. But all is well besides too many in my garden. Hate cluttered plants. But a little extra work and it will pay off. Best wishes a good day to all. IMG_20200726_121303.jpgIMG_20200726_121327.jpg

SSDD loving all the sun this summer. So pumped for this plant, took forever to find a pack of SSDD. Should be going into flower in a week or so. Fingers crossed for a dry fall.
Last time I put fabric pots outside.They dry out way to fast
Ditched fabric this year. Never again. Good Ole nursery pots are vastly superior for consistency in my experience. Felt bad giving my stock to a new grower.

Plant is looking good.

Not to stray too far, but what's become of Reef? Anyone know what he's doing now? I'd thought he was pretty much out of the game, but if not and he's sharing work/genetics with Bodhi and others that could be cool.
Someone claiming to be him has showed up on ICM on occasion (under his real name), seems like he must've sold RMS or partnered with some Colombians or something because the IG account doesn't seem to be him. Seems the same person is selling seeds under a related name.

As for Bodhi, it's always possible he bought these seeds at some point or got them/a cut from someone else, but there's a Pot Cast episode (maybe the Patreon only one) where he made reference to holding bad feelings toward Reef because he had screwed over some of B's friends, and that he happily reproduced and distributed seedlines stolen by a guy Reef was doing business with (I think I know who it is, after he fled to Europe he partnered with a dutch dude, and I vaguely recall they had a falling out and the dutch dude took a whole mess of seeds - Bodhi described the guy as Reef's webmaster or something, but I'm almost 100% certain he's talking about someone else, the actual webmaster guy had nothing to do with the business itself). I have nothing bad to say about Reef, he always treated me right, but I am well aware there are a lot of people who hold grudges against him for various reasons. Not arguing with them on that front.

Garfunkle Outdoor grow. NEast. 44 Lat.

Been about a week since my last pic. Tops put on 6-8" of vertical growth and the circumference is pushing 15'. A few removal cuts on non-ideal side branches and some defoliation for light and airflow. Canopy top is about 3.5'. Never seen such a vigorous plant. Very large fan leaves with super thick fingers, thick branching and nice node spacing. Any rough idea on stretch for these 88g13hp crosses? Not that it matters--I have ladders:).

BCGA claims to own all rights to the RMS label. I didn't like the way they corresponded with me when I emailed, so I never ordered any. I bought some RMS/BCGA seeds from Seed Cellar. 14 of 15 flopped. I still have 2 packs I've not popped. May have been me, or? Either way, I think some of his old work could mix with Bodhi gear.

@The Mantis Last I remember, Bodhi named his Big Sur "Bud" instead of BSHW because he wasn't certain it was the same as Big Sur from the likes of Coastal (and other California holders of the heirloom BSHW cut). To my knowledge, this has never been verified as BSHW. I did run Apollo 11 x Big Sur Holy Bud, from Bodhi, and it was leagues different than the BSHW I ran from Coastal. Hope this helps.

I also think the last drop at GLG was a restock and not the new drop? Did anyone get Booty, Strawberry Headband, or Banana Tranquilizer? I know these are a from the new drop being offered....?
