Thanks! I will research it more. All I can find are hybrids. I have seen a few Panama grows with the real deal but I do not have any friends in Panama

So you want a pure landrace Panama red? CBG or Ace is the closest thing in seed form. Cannabiogen have a lot of pure unhybridized strains from Mexico and Colombia.

I don't even think the original Panama red exists in Panama any more. I think the original had crimson red stigmas, not pink. I'll keep updating this thread so you can see what to expect of 3 regular seeds.

Thanks - it's out there somewhere

Since we have some seed breeders here, I have to ask if you have any tips on male parent selection? I've been studying it a lot lately and like everything else, there is a ton of conflicting info out there. I've read that with stable F1 seeds, male selection isn't that critical, where the resulting cross would then open up the interesting phenos where male parent selection would become everything at the F2. I realize that there is no substitute for actually growing out crosses from several males to find a male which passes favorable dominant traits that may not be readily visible or easily discernible in a male plant. I've read about waiting until the male is entering early flower and then scratching the stalk where you would take a cutting and giving it a smell, resin production and tightness/denseness of flower clusters as positive male traits to look for and NOT the obvious things like quick and vigorous vegetative growth or early flower. I think it's interesting.

cool post. Im not a breeder. I know or have read that male selection is important and some breeders males are kept and stud out many different genetics . I would pic the best looking one as far as smell, looks, and possibly trichlome production and color (purps) .

I treat my males horribly and the ones that survive are the ones I breed. There are definitely some dads that add frost but not THC, color but not yield, vigor but not resistance... I try to find good stable IBL landrace strains and go from there. I am still searching for a freak. I had a Jilly Bean that smelled just like mint and chocolate - the mint was so strong it burnt my nose. Unfortunately I didn't find this out until I harvested her for seeds. No clone but I have seeds - fingers crossed the trait is expressed again

Let's say you had a one female pheno in 10 of a particular strain that held a wonderful color or taste and wanted to isolate and up the % in successive generations, so that eventually that trait becomes stable in the offspring. Short of taking several cuttings of the female pheno, breeding her with several of her f2 male offspring, and growing out the resulting seeds to see where you stand, some upfront selection would be nice, but those recessive traits aren't readily apparent by looks.

What would be really fucking cool would be to find a male that passed on nothing but a big increase in yield, lol. The Holy Grail of males!

Damn! we need some gold !

Cameron Spencer/Getty ImagesShaun White couldn't pull off what would've been his most impressive move yet.
The defending Olympic champion fell during his first run in the snowboarding halfpipe event today in Sochi, crushing his shot at becoming the first Americna male Olympian to win three straight gold medals in one event.
But the 27-year-old veteran athlete, while surely disappointed, was gracious in defeat.
"Congrats to Iouri," White said, per NBC, referring to winner Iouri Podladtchikov, 25, who competed for Russia at the Turin Olympics but is now representing Switzerland, where he grew up.

Hey TWS - That LA Con clone is going nuts! Can you please teach me how to make one of those bagged clones?

Cheers,
Mo

LOL. Glad she's taken off for ya Mo. You'll like her. Thanks FM.

Hey TWS

What brand of paper towel do you use?
Do you wet the towel with anything special?
Do you take the cut from any particular location?

I am going to try and send one of those to a Michigan patient.

Cheers,
Mo

Here are my big girls outside this morning:

It was just a table napkin and PHd water. paper towels probably work better and wont stick as much. just normal cuts at or just above a node.

Thanks! Did you get anything good at the cup? I wish I had hung out at the lounge in the first place.

Besides some weed I bought, your AOS was the best thing I got. I have a big enough seed stock for awhile and want to work with what I have going now. Louie xii , cherry pie, Diablo, Tahoe, La Confi, Skywalker, Huckle berry Kush, Blue Heron, Herijuana , Woodie OG , Mk utra and my Menege.

Are you sure you have enough?

I am looking forward to trying the Tahoe too - and this:






I am also chomping at the bit to put your LA Con cut out in the sun with the one FMILY gave me:




She is joining the Jesus OG and the Scott's OG:

Merlot OG Kush





The Merlot always shows a very vigorous growth pattern and held up to absorbing plenty of nutrients. This can be an extremely branchy strain and phenos can be expected to bush out almost uniformly without any topping. Plants that were topped sprouted twice as many nods and flourished higher yields. Growers should expect lots of golf ball and hand grenade nugs across their canopy.


Often Due to its weak branches, tying up branches may be required fairly early into flowering and scrogging is highly recommended. Expect deep purple with cool temps and a fairly easy trim job once you make it past the larger fan leaves. With an extremely high resin output this has quickly become one of my new favorite strains for the garden.

Flowering Time Indoor: 56 – 70 days (~64 days)
Stretch after the initiation of flowering: ~80 Percent
Initiation of flowering onto around 60 cm. – Final Height onto around 90 cm.
Yield / Quantity Indoor: Moderate
General Impression Indoor: Expect Dense Frosty Flowers, requires training.

I am really liking the sound of that Merlot...and it is pretty!
