PURPLE SATELLITE
Harvest Sept 17 2018
Earliest pure Sativa of this quality I have ever had the pleasure of breeding. The fragrance is clearly cherries and sweet pine.
I hope to make seeds available someday as the situation is getting more legal here.

Beautiful plant indeed. You put the seeds on sale, didn't you?

 

[tropics]

@tropics WOW that is just an incredible looking bud! Perfect name, too.

Cheers,

Thank you Lazyfish!
I bred her two years ago and trials last year was so outstanding even with very wet cold season last year she showed very good mold resistance, so this past Spring I blew out my biggest plants of Satellite and even with a very steamy hot wet summer into Fall here, there was only about 2% bud loss to mold.

Hey Bud!
Yes I had them for sale through Austria but my seed rep fell onto hard times so I donated the whole years sales stock to him to help him recover. So I just built up seed stock again, this Fall.

 

[Conradino23]

Yeah I saw your website and I was planning to buy, which I'll definitely do when I go seed shopping again

Party at Tropics' house!

All freakin' week, lol.

Are you hiring for a man Friday? You can even make me live in the basement and, when you need tasks performed, call me by yelling, "IGOR!!!"

It just keeps seeming better and better.

I hope to make seeds available someday

I hope you do, too. I wonder how well this strain would grow indoors, under less than stellar lighting (in other words, no 1kW HIDs here).

Careful. He has been great about not actually advertising or posting the link to his website (which would be in violation of the forum rules, as a non-sponsor).

Speaking of which, @tropics , have you thought about becoming one of our official forum sponsors? Then, you'd actually be able to do the above. You'd also be able to do things like donate a few packs of seeds towards one or more of our monthly contest prizes, partially "sponsor" grow journals by offering testers, et cetera. And then maybe I could one day get to grow them (and get a cool t-shirt) .

You gotta keep me updated on that Parvati. I am really curious to see how she grows out.

Will do mate, haven't got any plans to grow them out yet but I should be getting around to them soon

I am sorry but that site is currently defunk when my seed rep hit the skids he also managed website and seed shipping.

While the plants go into mid to heavy flower the smell is destinctly cherry when ripe more pine hash cherry.

Not sure directing question to me, if you are this is my Oaxacan purple line I carried since 1979 crossed with Nepali Sativa which is also a purple line with sometimes fuschia pistils.

Hey bud!
This is my first run with these, I had them in a couple different grow conditions this season but anything outdoors and in my greenhouse fell to mold, the two above have couple weeks or so left, but they are already getting darker on top, and if they do the LED should bring out the color to its fullest. I will keep you posted.
