    Hi guys. I'm helping a friend who's suffering from fibromyalgia.

     

    Hello friend,

    Having fibromyalgia, your friend will want  to keep the pain away (day/night) but also to have a clear day high added with some energy / motivation, it's why i wouldn't only recommend Hindu Kush.

     

    As we know, indicas are reputed to be great pain killer, but on the other part, they have sedative effects, and can cut motivation, so it won't be the "perfect" strain to ("wake and bake") wake up and smoke, starting the day, as he would be pushed another time to his bed.

     

    More than pain killer, and muscle relaxation, he will need something which can provide clear mind and energy during the day, something functionable. It's why i would advise high CBD content, and sativa dominant during the day. And indica dominant for the evening and night. At night, CBD strains could be remplaced with pure indicas or dominant at least.

     

    I've seen some really interesting articles with some strain remaining. Harlequin seems to be a good pain killer while not cutting motivations due to her sativa traits, as well as Cannatonic (One i've smoked friendly offered by someone during a convention), adding Super Silver Haze CBD and Super Lemon Haze CBD from Greenhouse.

     

    For more Indicas exemples, Big bud (GH Super Bud) comes back again, Bubba Kush Original (Or GH Bubba Kush), and Grand Daddy Purple seems to have a nice researched effect for pain too, leaning on the sedative side...King's Kush CBD and Great White Shark CBD may be efficient also. But this is a none exhaustive list. The Hindu kush could be part of the list, for late time smoke, between hundreds.

     

    All in all, strain with high CBD Indica or Sativa, should be something he would be interested to try in order to see the results.

     

    There is a lot of Medical research done by real reputed doctors, from countries like Switzerland, Canada, Israel, USA, etc... And personnaly, i don't trust countries who diabolize Marijuana, putting it on the same rank than Crack and Heroine.

    I will travel to india in 6 months and i want to go to vishakapatnam ...

     

    Hello Ungewiss, in response to your PM, i don't know if i've found specifically the "Shilavati" ... As there is no name on buds. BUT, i've found some nice flowers to smoke in Kerala, Karnataka,Varanasi (coming from Bihar apparently) and Parvati (where there is more Hash than weed (90%)). I've never seen fields out there, just few plants for personal use.

    In the first time, i'll advise you to go asking to people who already smoke, in order to know if they've got good quality, good price, to know to whom they've been buying from. Until you don't know locals, play it safe! In Odisha, you should find some nice Green...

     

    Good travel.

  3. Oh my... This topic has been created in 2011!... How can time flies by so fast?

    "Already excited about going to Idduki and put your hands on it? There is a bad news. You might never get it, here is why - it is not around any more. With the population growing and forest cover soon depleting along with law enforcement becoming stricter the cultivation gradually came down in Idukki. Now most of the plantation takes place along the Andhra-Odisha border a hotbed of naxalism. Even though there are huge plantations there is a difference on what is planted- it is not Idukki gold, but 'Sheelavathi' a local variant as it is more adapted to the region's climate. Initially they tried to plant the original seeds but, the yield was of inferior quality forcing them to look for other viable options."

    I don't get to see what you say is your precious..I don't know why it doesn't show it , it only shows a very tiny box with green on the upper right

     

    :ok: ... I was just trying to make a Joke. You've never watched "Lord of the Rings"?... I've found your picture Original and intersting, because pollen is as important as a plant growing, flowering or buds showing. First time i see it on the Forum i believe. My "precious" was referring to the character (Gollum) ...

  5. I thought that Hash from Afghanistan was made the same way that they are doing in India and Nepal, rubbing gently living flowers while the temperatures and the sun heats at his maximum. It's why i was really surprised when watching this video... They are perfectly explaining, demonstrating and showing how they do  with their ancestral knowledge, since decades... centuries. By the way, the music is really well chosen. The sounds is making my brain Bubbling, adding that if you smoke some "Afghan" while watching it, you would feel transported without leaving your place. Really instructive way of doing it, in my opinion.

     Its amazing how many names of the original Chem/Diesel and OG Kush strains are actually names for the same exact genetics.

     

    You're right !! And not only for the  Chemdawg, Diesel or the OG...

     

    If you're looking closer, you'll see that Big Bud is also called Critical Mass, Critical+ (Critical+2.0 resisting to humidity), Criminal+,Super Bud, etc .... There is no problem if they are making some improvment for the strain, or if they add something else to make it better, tastier , faster. On the other hand, what i dislike, is when companies sell the same strain under the same name, except if they work together somehow, linked with common friends, partners, location of the growth... As an agreement.

  8. Muy buena noticia para ellos entonces, aunque se fuma mucha Marijuana en el pais desde hace mucho tiempo tambien !!

     

    Still, now the law is :

     

    - Possession of under 8 grams is considered personal use and it is not punished.

    - Cultivation, production or sale is punished with 8 to 15 years in prison.

    Hi All.  Growing where I live is NOT legal.  So its impractical for me to grow my own.  

    Any advice for getting my hands on some LandRace/Heirloom bud?  

     

      I travel frequently to the Los Angeles ... how to take the first few steps.  

    Alternatively, I'd be OK to start with getting some LandRaces/Heirlooms at a Los Angeles dispensary.   

     

    Any general advice/ideas/places to start?

     

    Hello... I suppose also that you don't have any Medical dispensies around? Because buying something in a State, and smuggling to another State where it's not legal, is punishable by law!... Many do it every years tho.

     

    An advise ?? Move in another State where it's Legal to get a Medical Card, a Medical Permit to grow, to buy rec'weed.

     

    An other advise, grow something that have really low smell while flowering, it will at least reduce all risks. (Nothern lights, Master Kush, and many others). Growing in 2 gallons smart pot with a  CFL300 or 200, it won't heat so much, so it won't smell a lot, it will be cheap concerning electricity, you won't have to buy odor filter and ballast; a (small)closet would be enough.

     

    You really can't get a Medical Card?... It's the easiest.


  10. Thanks for the answer, i've learned a lot...

    I am not interested in supplying seed or strains to the public

    I understand very well your point of view. I asked you this question because i knew that you didn't want to get bothered with the  business of seeds and anything; but you are still giving pollen to right chosen trusted people in order to , like i said, contribute to the conservation of the strain, and other experiments. And that's good.

     

    I knew the history of the 'White' , Nothern Lights, Blueberry being one of my favorite test/effect, Diesel also one of my sativa dom day smoke favorite as well ( thought that she was created in the late 90'). Concerning Blue Dream,  Top 10 sold weed actually and since a while, i thought it was  Blueberry x Super Silver Haze ...

    22 hours ago, Big Sur said:

    If a plant survives that long in demand like Blue Dream commands, then it deserves a place in my book.

    I TOTALLY agree with you on this way !! I also believe that if a strain stands like 20/40 years,  smoked daily, annuary by smokers/growers all other the world, it must be that she has got something that others don't have.

     

    I also think that , in the past 70'/80', growers and breeders, took more time to create, devellop and archieve a plant because of the rarity. Now it's going much more fast crossing something. People are more impatient, wanting novelties and varieties really quick... They/We don't have enough time and word-of-mouth to get used to it! It's why "Classics" will stand in the History, while the newest strain will fall one by one in the melee letting just few on feet like Highlanders. The best will remain while other fashion weed will sink.

    Had to use Two of these viles since I didn't fill them up all the way, I was told not to do so Incase it went bad I would have other container's to fall back on. Theirs 5 or 6 grains of rice inside the vile with melted wax on the cap to try an ensure no moisture gets in and to keep the vile from accidentally opening..L2W3US

  13. Hello,

     

    It looks like the Green Rush right now in California... ! And it's great!! When is it to be effective, 2018?

    Rec' dispensaries are going to grow like  mushrooms in the State. Imagine all those plant grown under the sun of Cali(like before, but legally). They already grow top quality Oranges and have really sweet wine much more sugary due to the huge amount of  sun. 

     

    For me Heirloom like BigSur says, are plant grown "Outdoor" since decades and used to the climate. There is a bunch in Cali... Orange Bud, Skunk, Haze, California Hash Plant and many others, Classics...! Every good Rec' Shop should have these in stock just as a weed cultural legacy. Then some new icons like  OG, Blue Dream,Bubba,NY Diesel,  Granddady Purple (new legend?) are flowering, but a bit young to be called Heirloom (except maybe OG which is an "old new one"in my opinion). Cali just has the perfect weather to grow Grade A, without having to use any electricity, the environment will thank us later. A majority of Indica could grow north, while most sativas would perfectly flourish south. As U.S Heirloom we could have add,  one of the pioneer Nothern Lights or Black Domina from Seattle Area. Bubble Gum from Indiana... On and on...

     

    It will be interesting as well to see how a same plant grows over the years in South Cali compare to Colorado for exemple. Caracteristics will evolve and change over time; Or not.

     

    A good Rec' shop for me, would have Legendary Classics, like i already said (Northern Lights, Orange Bud...), new top shelf hybrids, and Landraces...! A respected dispensary would mean nothing without the "Origin of Weed Culture". Such as Oaxaca sativa, Santa Marta, Jamaican, Hindu Hush, Maple Leaf, Durban Poison, Manga Rosa, Parvati Valley, Morrocan Hash Plant, Lebanese...etc etc...China Yunnan being really rare.

     

    BigSur, being in the Green Rush, being a passionate knowing a lot, being there, wouldn't you think of trading some Landrace Clones to some dispensaries in order to contribute to the preservation of the plant?? No need to sell flowers.

    ... Even few grams can put you, in the worst case,  in jail for years!! Believe it or not!...

    There is some kushes in it. This place, strangely, reminds me something, somehow, somewhere... "Over the rainbow, way up high"

  15. Really nice to watch the BIO powder feeding in action...! Nothing works better than a demonstration.

     

    The Hindu Kush must be one of my all time favorites, old school natural flavor combined with a relax smooth feeling, while the Great White Shark is in my Top5 Indica for evening relaxation inducing sleeping. I remind the White Shark Bio that i used to smoke back in time... Wonderful taste/effect. A winner natural medicine. First time i smoked it, it pushed me to bed twice during the day.(ok, it was a cold rainy sunday). The White Widow, is one of those strains that can't be forgotten as well...!

     

    On the 11th picture, my two favorites were the bottom left and the bottom right plant.

    Those pot are the best for indoor/outdoor... Plants just love it. Tried and approved.

     

    The Bio revolution is coming on for the best.

Strain Hunters is a series of documentaries aimed at informing the general public about the quest for the preservation of the cannabis plant in the form of particularly vulnerable landraces originating in the poorest areas of the planet.

Cannabis, one of the most ancient plants known to man, used in every civilisation all over the world for medicinal and recreational purposes, is facing a very real threat of extinction. One day these plants could be helpful in developing better medications for the sick and the suffering. We feel it is our duty to preserve as many cannabis landraces in our genetic database, and by breeding them into other well-studied medicinal strains for the sole purpose of scientific research.
