oldsandals Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Hello folks. I'd like to see if there are any other sativa/landrace/heirloom lovers here. The weed that sends your mind on a trip while leaving your body in tact and sometimes giving energy. For me this type of high has anti depressant qualities and soothing on my psyche over long time periods - my "medicine". This topic is for discussion of pure sativa and almost pure sativa, anything knowingly hybrid with indica or high CBD plants is off topic. CBD is the enemy of a trip high. Thin leafed sativa landraces or heirloom plants are found mostly in the equatorial regions of the world from around 15° north and south of the equator. Its also thought that high altitudes can play a part in evolving thin leaved plants. I have found from my personal travels in southern Africa that coastal humid areas seem to have more thin leafed plants than inland areas. Since I live in a humid area myself, its tough to try and grow the inland plants here out of their climate because they are susceptible to powdery mildew. The popular thin leaf growing regions of the world are best separated into large areas sharing similar plant traits for eg. Thailand/Cambodia/Laos/Vietnam plants are very similar and share many common traits. Mexico/Panama/Guatemala/Honduras plants also very similar. Going further south in the Americas to Peru/Columbia/Brazil you start to see the change to broader leaf plants but its hard to get good examples of plants from these regions because cartels have been importing genetics since the 70s. There are quite a few isolated Columbian sativa that are pure that people have managed to keep around, but in the case of Brazil, I have yet to see one legitimate landrace sativa from there and its all "Crip" basically landrace x modern stuff. I guess this wouldn't be complete without some pics of the skinny girls. Here are some pics from other sativa growers, some friends of mine, some not.

Bos Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 That is a pretty comprehensive pictorial from around the world, very interesting.I have grown some nice Swazi gold from said country. 60% of the plants grew as typical Swazi but the remainder expressed differently, indicating possible foreign influence.Still have a few beans in my bank that will be planted. Did enjoy that sativa and they grew very well in our coastal climate.Wouldnt mind growing our famous Dbn Poison one day.Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dank Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 Nice thread @oldsandals ! Thanks a lot for sharing with the group. These kinds of strains hold a lot of potential, hope to see more growers preserving these old varieties with seed. Subscribed My most sativa strain is a hybrid Laos x Hawaiian - Hawaiian Snow Greenhouse Seeds 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've tried it once but have nit grown yet. As I know it is 100% sativa. I had a giggle after the first sentense. Blueberry is a indica dominant plant, 60 to 70% indica.. Willies Wonder comes from Afghani.. indica in a very pure form. Those are the parents of Blue Magoo... getting a Sativa out of that mix, they didnt took the easy road or is just plain wrong declared as a sativa. Never grew or smoked it.. but would be interested to try 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
