Thanks Rivendell, that is helpful. I'm curious, how was the smoke? Do the seeds you made with it have a significantly shorter flowering time?
Not a ton of info that I can find about the genetics of Vashon. JBC has some listed, but, for example, EKI Bird is: "A massive and quick plant."
However, 'baked-beans' (never heard of them) also carries Vashon and has more genetic info. Here is what they have listed.
Vashon Kush- (highland Afghanistan landrace x old island indica )
EKI Bird- (Highland Afghanastan landrace x Vashon Kush fast pheno )
Early Bird- (Vashon Kush x Early Vashon male)
These three at least, seem to be heavily based on Afghan landraces. Is old island indica an heirloom landrace too?
It'll be an interesting grow.
