100 % pure

[wyattthewiteboi]

now i know there are millions and millions of strains out there breeded by the best and the guy next door but its always (a strain+ b = c strain) but i was thinking there always finding new animals theirs alot of the world that hasnt had a man set foot on so i was wounder if there a chance of finding a 100 % pure strain lets say i go to south america and get my ass lost in the jungle and stumble a patch of weed could that be a pure strain maybe the el derado of weed if so ill start saving now lol

 

[true grit]

Get your backpack and boots broham, I'm all for ya finding something new!!....

 

[ColoraDro]

How would 100% sure its 100% pure haha

 

[wyattthewiteboi]

i donno it depends if weed has a so called birth place or if it grew everywhere from the start

 

[sweetcanadasmoke23]

china is where cannabis originates from i've read

 

[TheIrieOne]

haha the El Dorado of weed, nice one..

It seems as if you're asking: Are there indigenous populations of Cannabis left to be discovered?

If this is so, the short answer is no: Because of its usefulness, since its discovery Cannabis has had the fingerprints of Man all over it.

If you're asking whether landrace cultivars of Cannabis still exist to be rediscovered, then the short answer is: yes. However, it should be noted: the likelihood is very slim (to non-existent) of these landraces being drug cultivars.

Sincerely,
Charles.

Exactly! Man has wandered all over this bitch, and you know our ancestors were putting every weed they came across into pipes! :afroweed::icon_cookie:

I know that Celestial Temple Sativa is an Equadorian Land Race and it's incredible. I bet there are tons of dank landrace strains that most people don't know about.

 

[pimpin]

how can you say its impossibble there is plenty of hoarded strains now so y could u say there can not be some new fire that has not been touched in a 100 yrs somewhere behind a mountain or some valley somewhere

 

[Charles Xavier]

Greetings pimpin

...that has not been touched in a 100 yrs....pimpin

still equates to 'was touched by man'.

Also, natural selective pressures selects against high levels of THC. In other words, all drug cultivars of Cannabis are man selected.

The "fire" is only 'fire' in related reference to man; there is no other reason for a Cannabis specimen to possess a terpenophenolic profile with a twenty percent (20%) THC level.

CZ is spot on, but on the other hand if you had access to every growers personal strains in North America youd probably find hundreds of personal strains that are bred and maintained by one or a hand full of people. That have been worked by these people since the sixties or seventies. Some of which contain genetics that are probably exstinct in the wild, from perhaps old Mexican landraces.
Sorry for going off topic a bit LOL

i mean not all pot is grown by man who knows maybe theres a long lost crop that has been forgotten in the years could it be possible lets say i happen upon some ruins that are over 500 years old and i find a long lost forgotten crop its all comes down to has anyone came upon a pot garden that dosnt look like it was planted by man a so called wild weed

 

[jaybird]

possibilities are always there...out there...somewhere

Bro...if you stumble on aruins that are 500 years old...you're gonna be famous...think you waked nd baked a lil early this morning...:icon_dizzy:
but give me heads up cuz i've been thinking of going to panama..to get some panama red..if it still around...then down to Peru to see Machu Piccu...
aloha...gro-on

Let's run with your scenario ...

A 500 year old plot would have been introduced by the Spanish during the earliest voyages to the America's.

The key is introduced ... planted by the Spaniards to make rope for the return voyage, so human hands were involved from the begining. The strains cultivated would have been super hemp plants refined for thier rope making qualities and not cannibinoid/terpene profiles.

Granted, these strains most likely originated in India, where medicinal strains have been worked and cultivated since the dawn of civilization, but these would not be the strains grown by sailors for rope.

So, a 500 year old strain gone feral would be an IBL rope line, with the wild hermi traits in abundance and a very stringy, hempy structure. and although a feral strain, it was ultimately introduced by man and the initial selections for seed stock were for manufacturing and not with medicine in mind.

It's very unlikely that there is any true "wild" cannabis that hasn't been touched by man . Cultivars that have been left behind by man quickly revert to what is called a "feral" state . CZ gives a good reference to that here .

........natural selective pressures selects against high levels of THC. In other words, all drug cultivars of Cannabis are man selected.

The "fire" is only 'fire' in related reference to man; there is no other reason for a Cannabis specimen to possess a terpenophenolic profile with a twenty percent (20%) THC level.

It is possible to breed a feral variety into a drug cultivar , but : it will take many generations of heavy selection of very large populations in a climate suitable to producing drug cultivars to accomplish that within the lifespan of a human .

A case in point would be hemp varieties in the south eastern U.S. . All that remains of the large plantations of the 1600's-early 1900's are scattered feral patches that everybody calls ditchweed . Most of that ditchweed origionally came from India . The people of India has been breeding for both fiber and drug varieties since the invention of writing . The genepools of Indian cannabis have been thuroughly mixed for centuries . Most cultivars in that region has the genes for both fiber and drug . All it takes is selection . The results of those generations of selections can still be seen today even here in the midwest USA where feral (aka : wild , ditchweed) hempstands still produce plants with both strong odors and mild mind altering properties (albeit not a very pleasant experience) . Take those mild plants back to a tropical climate and with heavy selection over a few decades and they very well have the potential to be drug cultivars .

Landrace is a misleading term . "Cultivars" or "Farmed Lines" are much more accurate terms . If you go globe trekking for drug cultivars , the farmed lines are what you should look for . Those are almost excusively found in someone's garden and not in the wild . The only exceptions would be farmed lines that have just been recently (not more than a few years)abandoned/ left to the wild .

Archeological discoveries are still being found today. Hell, a 700 year old Viking settlement was found in Canada just this year. Most haven't even heard of it yet, let alone the name of the team that stumbled on it; so famous is a stretch.

With all the swamp and everglades in Florida, an area extensively explored by Spaniards, it would be premature to say that all possible settlements have been found - and that's just Florida.

There has also been recent evidence of Asian visitors to the west cost long before Columbus' visit. I won't touch on the continued discoveries from Guatamala to Costa Rica or South America for that matter.

Holy Hannah Bananaman!! :banana:

Now that is the definition of synchronicity!

Edit: Ya know ... I lost my mind a while back - looks like you found it LOL.

 

[trichburner]

If you want it back you can have it , It might be a little hazy though
