AK Bean Brains

I ordered V3 last week from Labyrinth. Here is the description from their page. "Original Hawaiian import bud that was crossed to NL1 bred to F1 and backcrossed to the import. That was then bred to F2 and released to the public as F3. The ones with the long middle finger are the most ammoniated like the original import."

That's what mine says.. maybe he just added the V3

The Hawaiian Catpiss was $60 and the v3 is $100. There must be a reason.

Maybe V3 is the long middle finger. Is Catpiss big in Alaska?

I remember back in the 80s catpiss was popular around Ohio, NW PA area. I'm not sure if it's the same catpiss that AKBB has. I suspect it is different. The one I'm familiar with was more of an indica looking plant. Short and bushy with double serrated leaves. Tasted so hashy... nothing I've had since comes close.

BTW - your "nick" made my heart jump a little. I had a friend on the old Cannabisworld site who went by Non-Sequitor. Probably no relation eh? Lol...

Lol, nope.

If it's $100 then it's probably been worked further.. mine is F3 and I paid $60 last year.

Hope that’s the case and not supply/demand but it is America.Lots of 100$ Seed bank packs now vs the beginning .My collecting/vaulting observation .

Consumption is a bit farther along. Her big fans yellowed up and most have dropped. At just past 60 days from flower set she still has a bit of new pistil growth. Some of her looks pretty close but not enough cloudy or amber trichs just yet. Gonna say at least a week but probably more. She isn't a pretty girl as she gets older but the frost is there inside and still smells nice!

Some nice pics right there.

FWIW - I also order AKBB's Golden Showers, which is El Jefe's Afghan Haze Catpiss x Hawaiian Catpiss. Also ordered 707's Catpiss. The best weed I ever smoke had a cat piss odor to it. Hoping to find something similar.

I completely agree! The best weed I've ever smoked also smelled like cat piss. At the moment I've got AK's Golden Showers, 707's Cat Piss & CSI's Cat Piss x Triangle Kush all in veg & I just bought the Hawaiian Cat Piss V3 directly from AK. I'm having so much fun hunting for that piss!

I still have access to that old cat piss clone from 1980, but it's lost its taste and potency over the years. I don't know what happened to it. Probably wasn't kept in the best environment. I reacquired it a couple of years ago and tried to revive it, but just couldn't get it to turn back around. Pretty sad. And interesting note, when I ordered from Labyrinth, he noticed my address and he's from my area, and knows about that clone. He said 707's catpiss is the closest he'd found to it so far.

I can't speak for all Alaska, but I had never heard of Catpiss until a few years back.

I had heard of Catpiss back around in the early 80s. The local clone I was referring to wasn't called Catpiss, but it had a Catpiss smell to it and it tasted like pure hash. The friend who started it from seed found it in a bag of what she said was called 2 puff stuff. I had mentioned this clone to AKBB and asked if he had anything with that taste and smell. He knew what I was talking about but said he didn't have anything in his lineup with that taste and smell. He said he wishes he did. It was memorable for sure.

That is sad to hear about the clone, but that's awesome news about the 707!!! Thank you for sharing that!

Watch yall know about that San Diego Lion Piss clone only

Man have I been busy! Losing sleep and chasing dreams...

I got some more good news for the future of AKBB genetics! The old man who sent me the SSSC Beatrix Choice and the South African Haze (m4 just surprised me with another old badass tube of classic beans! The original William's Wonder, which is known for its superb potent indica high with a top notch head buzz to follow with it and guide its way... I will also be sending AKBB some of these beans. Will be doing an open pollination for preservation as well as some selecting. AKBB will probably start this project alone once he recieves the beans because unfortunately I dont have the space atm. Till I get an extra veg room constructed and some of these girls on out into the great outdoors, I can only do so much. I have 5 great looking Beatrix Choice going and probably going to run them outdoors. The Beatrix is supposed to finish outdoors in September and have some super potent sativa flowers, that's one package you just can't beat! Seems like all of these old school strains handle the outdoors multiple times better than newer modern strains do, which is a huge advantage in our Appalachian environment!

AKBB's Beatrix is up and going, he also had all 5 beans germinate! He went ahead and popped some of the m48s (SAH) along with the BC, says they're all doing good as well! Its gonna be a wonderful year (fingers crossed)! Its about time for the fucking choppers to start buzzing and making rounds around the hills and hollars of South Eastern Kentucky and I'm dreading it... Makes me sick to my stomach that they still throw so much $ down the drain that could go towards something beneficial to our people and state. Will it ever change??

Got some new beans gifted also thru the mail from AKBB... He sent me the SoRom (sohum x romulan), Black Velvet (black Domina x lavender), Big Star (Big Bud x Starfighter) and AmericannaRomma (Americanna x Romulan)... Those are some wicked crosses right there... so glad to have an awesome Lavender cross in my collection!

About 5/6 more days and I'll be flipping to flower... I kinda over vegged like I do every fucking time and gonna have to work a few plants into the outdoors... Its gonna be a jungle in the flower room, literally!!

And I have a stinky ass Americanna... one of the nastiest stem rubs I've ever smelled and that is no exaggeration! Just as stinky as the Kentucky Skunk (roadkill/skunkspray) only this smells literally like rotten trash, hot dumpster juice, stinky ass dog and shit... Never smelled anything like it. AK did plainly tell me that 2 of his stinkiest crosses was the Americanna and the GST (Great Southern Trendkill Skunk)... He also said the Americanna was extremely strong stoopid weed and that right there folks.... I miss having that!

It's great having you here @psychadelibud ! Please keep on posting... I'd give you separate "likes" for about ten different things in that post.

Agreed.

I appreciate the pics and updates on the grows, but also the info you are able to pass along. I've got very little going when compared to your projects, but we do overlap with each having NL1 x Big Skunk/NL1 going outdoors. It'll be interesting to see how our plants fare in KY vs VT as the season progresses.

On a larger note, I appreciate threads like this one (and a few others in the 'seed and strain reviews' section). I don't really wander too far out these few choice threads that seem to remain (generally) cordial, accepting, helpful and encouraging-->a rare treat to find on internet discussion boards.

that's great! William's Wonder is a classic. I know Strayfox was doing some work with it, I have his William's Temple cross. I'll be looking forward to what AKBB finds in there. Hopefully you guys make some OP beans available some day for us who like the pure old school stuff too.
