AK Bean Brains

Must be some real good weed, because Devils Club is one real mean plant. :)
It's in the Ginseng family, covered in thorns and seems to reach out and touch you when breaking trail.

It's one of my favorite native plants here in the pacific northwest. I even make salve from the root bark with it. Bought a pack of it because of the name lol and because it's one of the first strains besides NL that AKBB started collecting back in the day. I grew up in Alaska so those old Alaskan strains are kind of nostalgic for me.

That is cool.
I haven't partook in either, but I was once told by a Tlingit friend that the raw root was too powerful a medicine and could drive you mad unless you were a shaman.
That kind of shied me from it, especially coming from a Tlingit who are some bad ass Indians, if you know their reputation and former cultural practices.

Devils Club grows everywhere where I live in the Susitna Valley, but it stays fairly short, unlike along the coast where it grows as tall as a man.

I did see some Devils Club at Stevens Pass in Washington state one time and it reminded me a bit of Alaska.
 
Got some defoliating to do but this garden is off to a good start just passed the first week of flowering for most of the bigger plants . Phk x durb , gmo x bb , matty cakes (wedding cake x mtf ) and a couple others from assorted breeders in this tent as well

In all honesty...these beans were the best experience I've had in 20+ yrs. Literally every pheno turned out to have good terps and were resistant to gnats in the tent. Will see what they taste like soon. My next seed haul will be his blue meanie x tknl

These were all done with cmh bulb and a small hlg board side by side...Used foxfarm happy frog with the dry Fruit and Flower mix top dressed. Fed with foliage pro and dynagro bloom once or twice and then RO water and some bloom tea....
