Great to see the tri nodes running up her length.She is making progress. Hoping between the Mexican and the Afghani she has a reasonable flowering time. Took her out for pics and the exhaust fan blasted her stank through my little abode.
Yield should be nice.

I've never grown a plant like this. If she would have looked weird I would have culled her a ways back. That symmetry saved her life.

I have noticed the tri nodes in a few plants. What significance do they have?

I think it is just a mutation, but I know very little...

Found another supposed landrace sativa, Vietnam Black, in a new dispensary.
I needed another gram like the pacific garbage patch needs more plastic (I’ve still got over an oz from what I grew in ’17!), but had to give it a try.
There’s no knowing if what I picked up is the real deal, but I try to support places that carry landraces and get them in folks’ consciousness.*
The VB is quite good. Upper, with a helluva creep & really long-lasting 4 hr buzz. Very mind-bending. Dieselish nose, tasted earthy & woody.
Blackish cast to the bud, not very prominent hairs. Obviously sun-grown, which I prefer anyway. Cheap, too. (It’s all stupid cheap in OR these days).
*I’m not positive that consumer interest will help maintain & bring back landraces, but it might:
A week ago I talked with a master gardener who has some local notoriety for helping bring back some heirloom fruit tree lines and urban beekeeping (years ago, he converted his small urban backyard into a heirloom fruit tree grove with apiary). His words on those heirlooms: “It’s critical to grow them so that people can try them & create a demand for them, so that they’ll continue to be grown. Otherwise, they’re going to disappear like so many already have.”

Quiet place... how about a thin leaf 3 way cross? She is getting older.
About 7 weeks in flower.

Thanks. I think she will land on the fluffy side. But she stinks up the house so nice when I pull her out for pics. Actually considering making the entire plant into hash due to that aroma.

14weeks from seed under 11/13 hour light cycle, outside for first 10 weeks finished under Galyhydro LED grow light
What does that smell like @tropics ? For some reason, my nose twitched cherry when I saw it...
Very nicely done!
Hawaiian pine huh?
I got heavy pine off a Panama once ... I wonder if it doesn't have Mexican in it ... A California blend brought to Hawaii?I'd like to hear how it cures. You got my attention with that one - chunky sativa buds full of foxtails - that's hard to produce. And no fugups over 14 long weeks.

I'd smoke hash made from that...if I could!
I've got a hoard of supposedly landrace seeds ( Acapulco gold, malawi n 1 or 2 others ) I really should pop a few but it's hard to try unknowns with limited space.
