OLDSCHOOL TERPENE'S!

Hi everybody, i am kinda new to the online thing. I had a father that traveled alot to southern america for the united states govt. So now i am going to spend a few years of my life searching for some good ole fashioned oldschool sativa/landracey type varietals. So wanted to say hello and happy to have made your aquaintance.

Snowhigh Seeds bro they got that Oaxaca, Panama, Accapuco Gold, Columbian check them out!!

Think I'll drink down where it's at
Where the weed grows tall and fine

Why thankyou............i do enjoy his varietals and choices thereof......however those prices would clobber the shit outa my budget atm, cannabiogen has punta rojo and mangobiche pretty sweetly priced.....shhhhhhh lol. I may have to befriend you grojak.....YOU SPEAK my language! I am a lady btw lol.

Welcome to RIU !!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Mangobiche! I find landraces fascinating for many reasons. I currently have a (Seeds of Africa) Transkei sativa and a Cannabiogen PCK x Transkei F1 cross i've made.


I would give african seeds a consideration with SoA being the most recent source for untamed south African genetics, I've not smoked anything yet but they are beautiful and hardy plants with the chance for early flowering (for sativa) and offer something different. They are said to potentially contain elevated levels of caryophyllene and Cannabivarin, ditto for plants found in Pakistan according to old published analysis.

OUTSTANDING! Your making me drool overhere man! Let me say right off that i will be following alongside your progress with those ladies right there.
"

I am very ignorant to these terms.

Sounds like you are lookin for da grandpa weed

Thank you Mango,

Unfortunately i had to pull the ground plant before she could finish due to paranoia but i have a few clones vegging indoors.
Perhaps i may see your plants when they become established? The Mangobiche/punto rojo has had my eye but i've never made the purchase due to the flowering time.


I hope you do not mind too much information.

Caryophyllene is a terpenoid found commonly in a number of plants such as Hops (Humulene), basil, cloves, spearmint and black pepper. Contributing to earthy, woody, spicy aromas if I'm not mistaken.
It acts on the CB2 receptors as an agonist and has antioxidant/anti-inflammatory properties.

Tetrahydrocannabivarin is a partial CB1 antagonist and a CB2 agonist, its also found in considerable concentration among some south American landraces. I dont have a clear understanding of what this means myself but to put it into context THC is an agonist of CB1 and 2. CBD "Cannabidiol has a very low affinity for CB1 and CB2 receptors but acts as an indirect antagonist of their agonists".

Absolutely not! I actually just was waiting for a new bale of sunshine mix #4 to put these newer beans into(tomarrow) payday! I intend to actually journal the entire grow here!
