I’d love to get some pollen from you guys when you get it. Thinking about putting several interesting pollens on the branches of the best Vic from round 1. Pass those seeds around and see if we got any winners.
I'm thinking this might be the way to go. Those participating who have the space can grow out several individuals of a strain (however many make sense), select the outstanding female, reverse it, and send the fem pollen to Red. Seems like it would streamline the process for Red and keep his plant count under control.
I'm 2-4 weeks away from Wild Thai (WoS) fem pollen from 2 nice individuals. Here's the WoS description of interest:
"This is a cannabis plant with very high THC content. Highly valued by Asian growers for production and resistance to pests. Its powerful Sativa genetic and sweet taste, you will travel to the heart of Bangkok. THC Level: 22.3% measured upon the rest of cannabinoids.(taking an account THCV too), 9.7 % measured upon the rest of organic substances belonging to buds like: aminoacids, sugars, terpenoids, vegetal hormones, and cannabinoids (determined by gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry)."
There's a lot of marketing BS in there, but it uses the right terminology at least.
I failed to list some other recent acquisitions that might be promising. These are all alleged to be long-flowering (like 16 week), tropical sativas:
S. Indian Sativa Landrace (hand collected from live plants)
Costa Rica Sativa Landrace (hand collected from live plants)
SE Asian Sativa Landrace (hand collected)
And, my most recent purchase:
Mad Villian (Hoku seeds)
