Thanks! They were THAT good or you running them again to try and improve something?

Been pretty swamped at the farm lately, but have few new pics.

Below is a Purp5 #6 budshot. This number 6 plant was a bigger yielder than #1 but did show a couple nanners around week 4 after some light stress. I don't think it dropped pollen. Tastes like grape soda!

yeah exactly, man. I find it hard letting go also reallllly need to get through more of the seed collection...

You seem like youve popped a lot of strains, whats been your fave? if thats possible..

Busy last month that kind of flew by. Started harvesting the Vintage Pakistani at the farm. It was the fastest finishing plant of the bunch outdoor this year. And it's a straight soaring sativa high. Pretty cool. Got some kief and rosin from it now, along with some charas I made as a first attempt. It turned out super potent. The rosin and the kief is also super potent and seems to make colors really pop out. Very good motivational strain for me and I can smoke it morning through afternoon.

Finished some TT NL#6 x Appalachia. Very ugly looking flower but the high was pretty unique. Not cool enough so I'll flower the mom and move on.


Should have some '91 Christmas sexed in the next few days. All of them have reeked of chem since seedlings. I'm expecting the flower to really funk up a place.

Got 1 Kashmir Azad female sexed so far. Super cool smell and it's going in the seed tent for a bunch of f1s.

Crossing almost all my ibls with the Kandahar male for his farewell tour. Getting the tent setup now and should have the light flipped by tonight.

Here's some Dread Bread #2 growing outdoor:



That's one plant about 8 feet tall now. Guessing about 1.5 pound yield on her. She's a little slow to develop and might get the chop a few days early. But hey, better than bud rot! Lot's of variety on this f1 and some of the phenos finish a couple weeks earlier. This is not the keeper.

Also in the works, started a new pollen chuck with the Kandahar Afghan male crossed to a bunch of other heirlooms and a couple f1s. Looking for some f1 magic in there!

Just started these beans:
Double Lemonade from DarkHorse Genetics
Trey Way (Black Triangle x Kandahar Afghan) a pollen chuck from me
Pinball Wizard from Bodhi

We all got to start somewhere.



Trey Way #1 (Black Triangle x Kandahar Afghan)

Here's a little love note about Vintage Pakistani.

I had high hopes for this line, being from the Nierika series, coupled with the fact that I drove several hours to Santa Cruz to get them and they've been burning a hole in my pocket for a few years now. Plus, I've only found one other grower on Instagram that's running these and there's not much info online about the line. However, they easily outperformed my expectations.

The two females that popped up are both awesome. I'm leaning more towards #2 just because it seemed to mature a little faster outdoor. We ran 5 of them in total (3x vp2, 2 x vp1). All were nice 4' Christmas tree shaped plants. But the kicker is how fast they finished. 1st of September was plenty of time and they all held up to bugs and rain. The flower is outstanding and has a very unique taste and smell, with a floral type of hash taste with a slight melon like sweetness in the background. It's my first smoke every morning now. I made a small 1/2g charas ball that smoked great and we made a bunch of kief and some rosin. The hash and rosin have cured into a nice coffee like smell. Super unique. The high is a very clear headed, motivational, type of sativa high. I wasn't really expecting this, coming from Pakistan, and thought it would be pure indica. If I had to guess, they selected the sativa phenos over time and were able to lock in the tastes, smells, and sativa high they wanted over how many generations. This is the true holy grail of cannabis, being a super fast flowering sativa effect type plant. People talk of Cindy 99 being the holy grail, but this is on a different level. This plant will probably be in my garden as long as I have a garden!

Bodhi released a Vintage Pakistani DLA, #11, which I also was able to scoop up. We'll pop these in the next year hopefully and I'm looking forward to seeing how they compare to the original VP, with that new super indica power of the 88g13hp dad.

Here's a few pics of the vp grown in a 4" clone pot and some nug shots. I'll post some outdoor pics in the next month or so.

after 1 week of flowering!


7.5 weeks of flower


bud time

Here's a couple pics, not the best, of some tester plants:

Kashmire Azad #1 @50 days - I didn't top it but has about 3 tops kind of. Super greasy like resin and a very different smell. I'll comment on the smell more once I can describe it better.


'91 Christmas #5 @43 days - nice chem smell to her with dense nugs.

12/12 beans of Pinball Wizard have germinated! Always preferred Silver Haze to Jack Herer and Super Silver Haze. This cross has the SSH but I'm hoping it brings that nice Silver Haze hazey high with the shorter flower time.

Soaked a few Dragon Af (Cosmic Serpent #10 x Kandahar Afghan #1) seeds yesterday and put them in plugs today. Praying for some bleeder females that will might yield a little more like the Kandahars, maybe with a little more body high too.

Next up:
Strawberry Cough (Hazeman)
Strawberry Goji (Bodhi)
Straberries & Cream f2 (Exotic Genetix)

The Strawberry strain deathmatch. Winner gets a spot in the garden and the losers get a ribbon and a spot in the compost bin. Game on.

The new f1 run is at week 9 now and about to wrap up. I accidentally clipped the Sannies Jack last night so she's already drying.

Pretty excited over all these as they're all true f1s crossed to the Kandahar Afghan male. After growing this Kandahar line for over a year now, I'm really expecting great things from the progeny. Now it's all about growing them all.

The plan is to harvest them all over the next week and let them dry. Label them and then pick a few to start up. Plan to find the best cuts to release for growers and make a ton of f2s. More to come.

ah man! good luck with the kandahar crosses

Just harvested all the f1s from the Kandahar dad. Didn't get many seeds so this batch won't be given out. I'll try to find the best ones then re-create them en masse. Already started soaking the '79 Christmas Tree Bud x Kandahar Afghan beans. Next I'll probably pop the Too Buku & Big Sur crosses.

Realized we need to get more f1 crosses going. I'll get another f1 cross or two going then start focusing on popping all the ibls I still have. Need to get those out asap! 6 IBLs to go right now. Next one up is Parvati! Looking forward to this really unique strain to see how she stands up in this Oklahoma weather.

Harvested some Cheese #8 the other day and have smoked it a couple times now. Really strong, lung expanding smoke that can make you cough with a big hit. Cheesy smell from the jar and a very unique taste that's hard to describe for me now but very pleasant.
Here's a pic of the bud at 43 days:


I chopped her down at 56 days but she could have gone another few days to a week. Hazeman really has great genetics. The strawberry cough we're growing now all have a nice smell to them and are very hardy. Will get pics later.

6 of 6 Buku Ghani seeds just sprouted! Buku Ghani = Too Buku #26 x Kandahar Afghani #1. Expecting some great things from this kinda sorta 4-way f1 hybrid. Lot's of Afghan genetics in there, with some Thai and Vietnamese thrown in. It's basically a Vietnam Black x Thai f1 from Ace Seeds I then crossed to Herijuana IBL from Sannie (created in the US from Motarebel) then crossed to a Kandahar Afghan IBL from Nierika that's been grown in Cali since the 70's. With the different Kandahar crosses we have going now, it will be a great test of the dad to see how dominate he is, test germination rates, and test quality of the plants. Not releasing any of these f1 beans from the Kandahar dad but we will introduce some of the standout females to the community for some pure f1 magic!

Just soaked the last 18 of my Too Buku f1 seeds from 2013. Hoping to get another male or two for the f2 breeding. Next up on the seed starts:
Monkey Balls #6 x Kandahar Afghani #1
Big Sur Holy Weed #8 x Kandahar Afghani #1
Petrolia Headstash

'91 Christmas #5 at 6.5 weeks here. Really like the structure on this girl too. Very solid with a bunch of bud sites. Some plants were flopping all over, like the King's Banner, but this girl is standing tall full of seeds like the BSHW girls.

2020 is here! Been waiting a long time for this year and it's finally here. Big things coming this year. Popped over 1500 seeds in 2019 and plan to pop another 1000 at least this year. Problem is my seed count is now increasing from all the pollen chucks. Good problem.

The Buku Ghani and Purple Monkey Ghani have all gotten 100% germ rate from the first set of beans.
Started Gorilla Fume from Lucky Dog Seed Co. 2 days ago.
Next up is Monk Juice v2 (Big Sur Holy Weed #4 x Kandahar Afghani). The BSHW #4 has a really nice squat symmetrical structure with a fat cola. The #8 is more of a "brancher" with awesome symmetry with long, almost 90 degree branches, and taller than the #4.

Love the vigor so far in these. The Buku Ghani is only 3.5 weeks old and is already bigger than plants that are 30-40 days older. f1 magic!

Will get more pics up soon. Happy new year
