Greetings all, I'm looking for some helpful info. I want to grow some pure Afghani and Hindu Kush strains to start a breeding program with. Anyone have any experience with pure landrace varieties/seed sources? I'm looking for the very best genetics I can possibly find without traveling to the source location.

I'm also interested in growing pure landrace sativa strains for my breeding program. All the posts I've read about bad seeds and unreliable plants has lead me to believe the seed dealers have focused too much on cross breeding, and this is causing genetic problems. I want to start breeding with the pure ancient genetics. So, if anyone has had a great experience with a particular breeder, then please share your experience. Thanks!

i've never ordered from them but i hear good things about world of seeds landrace. also the real seed company has landrace hashplant varieties. reeferman has one called hao bac that looks like it'd be a lot of fun to try out.

i have never tried any land race except for this one...i am not sure if a friend of mine from mexico while i was still staying in LA gave me a land race strain...but on comparison this land race that was not even cured or dried properly fuck the shit out of me.

My wife is from the Philippines; I've been to the south central island of Cebu, and the capital Manila on the northern island of Luzon. It was a 10k mile 23 hour flight and my dumb ass never thought to inquire about seed. My wife is in Los Angeles caring for her mother and I plan to move out there and try to build another business. I have an idea for a secure stealth greenhouse that could be mobile in case of emergency. I believe strongly that a lot of growers and potential growers would love to have one of my designs. I was just tossing some figures on power savings alone, and the greenhouse would pay for itself over time in energy and security savings alone. Anyhow, I'm an arborist, not a cop, and I've been climbing trees too long. No one wants to hire an entrepreneur because we are fiercely independent and don't like taking orders. I don't have the $ yet to travel the world, or I would collect seed in person, and I truly appreciate the replies. Anyone reading this that's into fabricating, welding, etc, I may take on a partner with the new business, and I plan on expanding it to all 15 legalized states.

well bratha...you dont need to come here and acquire seeds, i am most willing to share the land race seeds here. i went here since my dad got a stroke 2 years ago, and needed to handle hes business as well. i am into trading and importing steel/metal for construction, fabrication and sorts of stuff...and do a little construction from time to time. i am planning to build my own design as well luckily i have all the materials i needed since i have a bunch of metals and stuff and all i need is scrap metals that are left over from previous projects. i also have my own people to do that for me hehehe. until then though i still have a lot to learn in this kind of business so i am taking it one step at a time and nto spend all my time and money building my grow room. check out my semi indoor/outdoor grow room i would only be needing the lights open for a couple of hours at night the link: https://www.rollitup.org/grow-room-design-setup/394099-what-do-you-guys-think.html

dude this shit is tall, and takes forever to flower i have been flowering this for a bout 3 mos now, im seeing 2 more weeks, would love to post a pic later. i had one plant that i just killed a few months ago into flowering already because its to darn tall and smelly. no special care whatsoever is needed for her. she went crazy even if i topped, trimmed, yeah i trimmed her crazy this summer and she just grew more than 10 ft, and to thinkl i uprooted her as many times possible for neighbors to see...yeah straight up uproot without the soil. i had one plant left without a single tlc and she as well went as high as 8ft tall so i decided to chopped her in half. i have never tried a landrace (street weed) here that was cured properly but still fucks me up like i said on my first few post. this will be the first time i will smoke her with the right drying and curing. oh also her buds are so dense that even the humidity here is whopping 90% i get no single problem. she smells different in anyway from other strains i tried...knda like a hint of super lemon haze, earthy, mango smell...leaning toward more on the mango smell though

here you can see in this picture that she was cut more than half, now just picking out of the window...no more top colas that are way bigger than the rest in the pic...besides it was a gallon of water bottle. i guess i was wrong that it will finish in 2 weeks. but yeah those buds are not as heavy but sure are way bigIMG_2076.jpgIMG_2072.jpg. in this picture i inserted the water bottle handle to the cola and hung it for comparissonIMG_2077.jpgIMG_2074.jpgIMG_2073.jpgheres my hand holding it. im ft tall so you be the guess how big my hand is

i only feed her nothing, no nutes or even water it...since its rainy season for at least 2 more months. if gave her left over nutes and washed her down with strong mixtures since she is sitting on the ground less burn for her. even the soil i am using is old, clayie, bad water drainage. the worst possible grow you could know i have done to her.

those phillipine landrace plants look fun! looks like cousin It but green... sweet? spicy? i can imagine...

sweet like mango, spicy like lemon...the more mature it gets the spicier and sweeter it smells and the earthy smell is fading away, its just about to start to get sticky, seriously, i havent gave her special attention...the only reason i am still growing her is to compare how the smoke from my cure to how they usually cure it here...from what i have heard the natives/growers/dealers dry it in the hot sun...i guess they either are not educated or they need to sell it fast, so they need to have there merchandise ready to get liquidated.

How did the seed germinate? Did it finish like the photos on the website? Those buds are very pretty indeed. My nephew is deploying to Afghanistan with the national guard in a few months, maybe he'll send something home to his uncle.

Reeferman has 3 landrace Afghani strains and they are all on sale right now at Hempdepot. A couple of Sativas too.
Attitude carries his strains too.
I'd say he is your best bet
Afro Pips has a few African landrace strains.
