Hey I am wondering if anyone has the Afghani Bullrider? the same one that Michelle Rainey(RIP) and JefTek had back in the day?
I only tried it once, but I heard that the rapper Drake used to pay 600 a oz in Toronto for this stuff, I once intercepted a few of his nugs.
I used to watch her on the net all the time , then one day I was walking down Yonge street in Toronto with my GF and she was like hey is that the lady that has the grow you watch? so I walked over to Michelle introduced myself as a fellow med user/pothead/fan she was supppppper cool, we chatted for like 5 min, then she gave me her card and her direct phone number, a week later a buddy of mine showed up with the Afghani Bullrider, it was dank for sure. A few weeks later I jump online I find out that Michelle Rainey had passed away, I was super sad, she was a kind soul, it was crazy because she was sooo full of life when I met her only weeks earlier. I have often wondered if anyone kept that plant alive, I know it was her fav, she talked about it a lot in her videos.
It would be cool to know people are keeping her fav strain alive.

This is what I got on the strain via CC' site.

When I was living in California, this strain was brought to me in plastic cups and infested with whiteflies. The little plants were 6 inches tall, budding, with single-bladed leaves running the entire length.

I had clones of good strains all over my place, and the last thing I really needed was a potential infestation or more genetics to keep track of. But, I dipped the plants in Einstein oil mixed with water for three days in a row, and let them sit in the back of the veg tray for about seven weeks. At least once a day, the thought occurred to me to move on with this strain. I almost threw those ugly single-bladed, freaky-looking little bastards out so many times.

I started cloning from the plants in the eighth week, and the clones all busted roots within ten days. I then decided to throw some regenerated Afghani Bullrider moms in the budroom to see what they would look like, and 35 days later I cut one down. The rest fell on day 40, completely ready for harvest. They were the fastest and tastiest buds I?ve ever had. The Afghani Bullrider proceeded to be unbelievably quick, thick, and smelly!

I let some of the next batch of Afghani Bullrider bud for 50 days, and they shot out a few male banana-shaped flowers. Following Soma?s method, I placed some of the yellow talcum-like powder from these bananas on the lower buds of the clones, which were now in their second week of budding. These lower bud sites then created seeds, while the rest of the plant and the room produced pure Sensimilla.

When I relocated to Canada, I left my buddy in California with a large stash of cured buds for being such a wonderful friend. About ten months later he informed me ? almost sadly ? that he was finally at the end of his smoking journey through the Afghani Bullrider. But luckily, without my asking, he thoughtfully saved in a package.

As soon as I got the seeds, I put ten into a zip-lock baggie on top of a wet paper towel folded twice. I got only three males, and kept all six girls. When planted, they shot up to a full meter tall, and some of the fan leaves were 13 inches long and 13 inches wide! The colas on each one weighed over an ounce when dry, and all the buds were tight and dense with crystal.

I turned the six Afghani Bullrider pots one-quarter rotation each day for even light distribution. They got fed organic Earth Juice, supplemented with Bottanicare?s Pure Blend Pro hydroorganic grow and bloom formulas. I augmented my reverse-osmosis filteredwater with Cal-Mag Plus, because reverseosmosis water is so pure that without supplements, it will leach nutrients out of your plants.

I alternated this water with fertilization 2 to 1: water, water, feed ? leach every four weeks. I like to see what plants will do with the absolute minimal amount of nutrients and have them impress me with their flavor, stone or yield before I try any additives or additional fertilization tek-niques.

This was a traditional 8-week project, but as I review about a thousand high-resolution pictures, I still can?t believe how quickly the whole process went, and how fat the plants all got. The scent is almost acrid, and spicysweet like exotic, foreign food. The taste and the potencyare apparent in the hash-like burn that you feel when you inhale the smoke through your nose. This Bullrider joint I?m smoking right now is down to a tiny roach, burning my fingers ? and I will toke it again, and again, just for the intoxicating and resinous flavour. Nothing tastes quite so satisfying to me, and I don?t think I?ll get tired of it any time soon!


Peace, Love, and Tekness!

Also just because a clone can travel does not mean it did. Not one person from BC has stepped up and shown me the legendary clone only strains from the states. Only shit branded as the legendary, but none of it real.

PS the bullrider in Canada is not the same as the clone in the states because jef stated he started it from seed.

I do not know what you are tripping on? my post did not say no one has it, my post said does anyone have it.
I also said I do not have it, if you took the time to read what I wrote, I am asking who if anyone has kept this strain alive? I stated I tried it once and it was killer, I do not have pics of it, I have a story about trying it and meeting the great Michelle Rainey. I do not get the hostility? I did not say no one has it, I am asking who has the history on it post her death? I used to hear about this strain all the time when she was alive, now I have not heard anything about it.

Because I am not that obsessed to find it, I was wondering if anyone in here knows anything. Heck maybe one of you know him, or maybe one of you is him. Regardless I do not get why all the tude on here?

Every time I mention a rare strain some of you guys are like "oh yeah I have that" or "Oh my buddy had that 5 years ago" or "oh yeah I can get that anytime I want, but I have better"
I come online with real questions that I ask the community and a lot of times all anyone can do is stomp their feet and say bla bla bla.
