Looking for Strains with African Genetics

[Finshaggy]

So most people have probably not realized this, but just as an example, Girl Scout Cookies is made from Durban F1 X OG Kush. Then Cherry Pie (Durban Poison X Grandaddy Purp), a Cherry flavored strain that made Pink Champagne (Cherry Pie X Grandaddy Purp).

I've heard that one version of MILF Weed, from the show weeds, is 4 African strains mixed together.

Banana Sunrise (Very similar to what I am doing, with a very similar Banana strain) is made with Banana Sativa and Girl Scout Cookies and Durban. The Banana Sativa is where the Banana Crack comes from.

African strains seem to be bringing out some of the best genetics. Everyone has heard of Girl Scout Cookies, while hardly anyone has heard that it has Durban Poison in it.

Does anyone know of any other good strains that already exist today that have African Genetics?

Here is the Description of those Banana Crack Seeds that I am breeding with Malawi Gold:

Sublime looks and impeccable flavour, this is the sound of summer... Banana Mango and Peaches really make this strain stand head and shoulders above the rest.

Excellent head, strong, bright and clear, thoroughly enjoyable, trichs from week 2. A treat to grow which make exceptional concentrates, a real gift. Her finished product is a lethal combination of flavour and strength, a must have!

We took a long time getting this just right and it's now one of our most in demand strains. Get this while you can, this is going to change your perception on flavour strains for ever.

The Marijuana Industry is now doing Genetic Testing of Plants in order to look for things like Genetic Heritage, Yield, THC Content, etc, and to find F1 plants, and soon even unforeseen applications, as this is the only company doing this right now and by the time it is normal it will have become even more useful than it is now.

If anyone would like to contact this company, I have been in contact with one of the Dr's on their team, and she said I could share her email.
Susan.Trapp@MariGene.com

So if you have a strain you want to get Genetically Tested, go ahead and send her an email.

Is this groundhogs day?

@rollitup can you move this to the newbie section

Everyone has heard of Girl Scout Cookies, while hardly anyone has heard that it has Durban Poison in it. ...Really!

entire Europe and Africa dissagree Durban was one of the oldest old school strains ever

but not my favorite that being Powerplant...look into

Coffee Gold

Durban Magic

Malawi Gold

Mozambica

Pondo Mystic

Swazi Gold

Transkei

Zamal Reunion

Zimbabwe

many Russian favorites, but the thing is to get them from the proper breeders IMO

thats African seeds and World Of Seeds, my fav

good luck

I think you misunderstood.

I was saying that everyone has heard of Girl Scout Cookies, but no one knows that Durban is a parent of Girl Scout Cookies. I was not saying that no one knows what Durban is. When people hear about Girl Scout Cookies it is almost as if it stands alone and is not a cross between 2 strains, no one says "Have you tried Girl Scout Cookies, it's an awesome new Durban cross". I have never heard anything like that from anyone, or at any dispensary. No one really knows that it has Durban in it.

And I was not asking what African Strains there are, I know what African Landrace strains exist. I am looking for strains like Girl Scout Cookies and Cherry Pie and all those that have Durban in them. But maybe like a Malawi Kush, or Malawi Haze, or Malawi Diesel, that kind of stuff. Does anyone know of any of those?

Durban x your sister... I'd breed with that

 

[vostok]

Oh you mean African Crosses, as in African strains crossed with popular shit ...Nah

Why dilute good African shit with popular culture

thats a step back

 

[Finshaggy]

Like the Durban X C99. That kind of stuff.

If it is a Durban cross I do want to know about it, but I am more interested in other African strain crosses if there are any.

Well, you know how White Widow was made from Thai Landrace and Brazilian Landrace and started this whole thing where now like every year there is a new strain with higher THC content than the year before?

Then Charlotte's Web and CBD were discovered to have a use, and Charlotte's Web itself was bred for high CBD content. And ever since then people have been breeding plants with higher and higher CBD content. But no one is breeding strains with THCV content. Why is it that every year or every few years there is not a new strain with higher THCV content than ever before?

I am pretty sure the way to do this is to do this:

First, add smell genetics, such as the Banana Crack and White Strawberry Skunk.

Then either cross those with something like White Rhino or White Russian, or Cross the Malawi with the White Rhino at the same time that it is breeding with the Banana Crack and White Strawberry Skunk. And if you use the second method, you would then cross those 2 crosses (Malawi X Banana) X (Malawi X Rhino).

Then cross them with Hazes and Kushes, etc. And then breed them back with African Strains and Aromatic Strains.

Then select a mother plant by breeding those together, and pick one with higher THCV content, tons of trichs, and some unique colors or something.

Then from there I will breed that new strain with African Landraces and other Landraces to see what can be brought out.

 

[Finshaggy]

Also, we have the Girl Scout Cookies clone and the Early Durban. So both of those are already crossed with African Genetics. So we can cross those back in and the African Genetics will recombine.

And I am pretty sure Malawi Gold is the plant with the highest known THCV content currently, and I got both Ace Seeds Malawi and Seedsman Seeds African Buzz, so I got 2 versions of Malawi Gold. And if 1 is Male and 1 is Female, I can cross 1 with the Feminized plants and 1 with any Male plants that turn up.

Then if I cross the 2 types of Malawi Gold with other strains, then cross those offspring back together, the Malawi Genetics will meet back up after being altered.

Sounds more like a free for all orgy rather than a well planned breeding program.

Breeding and I quote you "Cross the Malawi with the White Rhino at the same time that it is breeding with the Banana Crack and White Strawberry Skunk" will not give you a cross of everything.

You can only cross one male with one female at a time if you want to have any clue what the produced seeds lineage will be.

It's like if a hooker fucks 100 guys and gets pregnant, the resulting offspring will not have the DNA of the hooker and all 100 men, but it will instead have the DNA of the hooker and one of the men but you won't know which one was the dad.

 

[vostok]

the current method of reading THC/CDB etc content of weed is seriously screwed

way too many fingers in the pot(lol) for way too many reasons at most GREED!

wake up smell the coffee

most quality breeders breed for tric. flavor (currently for medical CBD)

very few good breeders breed for sky rocket high THC readings

but claims of 20% THC are abound now, and indeed most of my current stock claims to exceed that

but in honesty I would say most aren't above 18% THC

I know longer have or use the CAT Kit

IMO spend 2 hours on ICMAG may help

good luck

Lol. You pollenate 1 branch or tiny popcorn nug at a time, the you put a small trash bag or a ziplock bag over it depending how big it is.

You can breed 1 plant with more than 1 other plant at a time.

I'm just saying that we shouldn't just leave the African strains out of the gene pool because they are already good on their own. I think that's more reason to bring the African Genetics in.

No self respecting breeder would ever consider bringing multiple strains of pollen into a single flower room at the same time. You are rushing things too much and cannot guarantee that your crosses will be what you think they are.

that would look awesome under 100w of hps and cfl's!!!
