I think Mexico is way underrated, the diversities are outstanding from what I've been told every province has another variety and people smoke a lot even if they don't cultivate it to perfection as in other regions. Plus the famous Acapulco Gold is a classic whose genetics are all over the very best strains like Cali OG, various brown/blonde jamaican sensies and the list goes on. Acapulco should be a nice destination for the strainhunters as well..LOL

Mexico may truly be underated, I have had many samples around the country over the years. Guerrero and Michoacan states are some of my favorites, and most small villages have a grow in their cornfields. I'ts used for many other things besides smoking, like fan leaves in a jar of alcohol for rubbing on sore muscles.

Anyway, to the point! I'm an x-pat, been living in MX. for 16 yrs. Have smoked for decades, Mexico should be avoided for any kind of strain hunt and especially documented. The resorts are always easy to make a score when on vacation, but the countryside isn't always friendly. You are an OUTSIDER! Any large grow will be in one way or another controled by cartels.

This is what will happen. Even if your contact is a friend. He talks to person 2, #2 wants cash to talk to #3, more cash for #4, we are close now but #4 wants more cash. You pay! Now they know you have lots of cash. Next, trip to the grow in the mountains, miles in the country, YOU are never seen again! Then they clean out your hotel room.

Don't expect any help from the police, they will shake your family down again, they got their cut too from #3 or #4! (Stupid Gringos)

Check out www.borderlandbeat.com to see if you can trust anyone. It wasn't like this 16 yrs ago. I no longer deal with anyone, my garden provides all I can smoke.

De nada, I wouldn't care to read about a hunt gone bad.

Thanks! Ha! Yes, one of the things I like most about living here. It's all about WHO you know, and money.

 hello Inyectado  i have lived on a boarder town in TX. After looking at local photographers i came across a picture of some sativa that was/is growing wild (so it seems) i have not talked to the photographer due to legal reasons. i was wondering if you could shed a little light on what the strain might be.

Sorry, no idea. I live more than 1000 miles from there.

There isn't much sophistication or any strain names where I am.

It's All just Mota!

Thrown on the ground in the sun to dry, then smashed for transport.

Lot''s of sticks and seeds.

Impossible to tell what it was.

I don't go near where it's grown.

That's why I have my garden

About the growing wild, I wouldn't go near it!

About us

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.
