The Nigerian sunshine I crossed with was quite a bit different then @SCJedi Was. Myn was like str8 highland blue thai, blueberry and flowers with long ass sativa buds.that matured pretty quick, about 11 weeks, I took it at 10 tho. The effect and potency are awesome,.im bombed on it right now, great floral flavor as well, bag appeal is lower, like fluffy long buds. Myn has a strong mind buzz, yet it contains this peaceful effect I love, no paranoia, or anxiety which I can get easy lol its hybrid vigour and branching was off the charts. Had the variegated leaf trait...
I hit it to my royal robbery line,(blackwater/alien abduction stud)
The CVS was a very limited drop and I haven't researched enough to know why. Something new in my stable threw some early pollen and I hope it's not that because it's pretty unique.

Yes, your Nigerian Sunshine does sound a lot different that the two I have.

There is another common strain between us. Do you have the original Blackwater or the recreated fem? I've been growing the original Blackwater for probably 10 years now and have been crossing with it recently.
From my one pack of Nigerian Sunshine, bought from Swami in early 2019, I got 16 to germinate out of 19 seeds.

I'm keeping 2 of the females, one from each main phenotype I noticed.
pheno 1: tall, super fast veg/growth, branchy, sativa like airy buds with a more clear sativa uppity high. Grassy, earthy, spicy like smell with some sweetness. I'm guessing these are the Nigerian dom phenos. 10-11 weeks
pheno 2: shorter, more modern looking hybrid like flower that's dense with a stinkier skunky like smell and a little sweetness too. I'm guessing this one is the BMR dom pheno. 8-9 weeks.

I'll try to snap a couple pics of the bmr dom testers I'm flowering soon.

Pheno 1 sounds alot like my pheno, but its the Highland blue thai dominate, from the original vics blueberry which was sativa dominate. If uve seen the variegated leaf trait it's a sure thing. I showed gas my pheno and he confirmed.
But your effect sounds a bit different, I am wanting to find a Nigerian pheno.

Where is the "Highland blue thai" and the "vics blueberry" coming from in your genetics? None of mine had any variegated leaves.

The story I have on Nigerian Sunshine is this:
A worked landrace x polyhybrid African line by team Swami, incorporating the 1976 Nigerian landrace from Coot. These seeds are Nigerian x BMR backcrossed to my keeper female Nigerian x BMR F1 using a male offspring stud produced from her and another F1 from the original breeding. Expressions should be astonishing and worthy of keepers. This line holds a truly unique expression in cannabis in flavor, scent and overall effect. The mother seed was found in a tribal region by a couple “searching for exotic textiles”. In a certain dispensary in Washington State that is frequented by veterans from the gulf and Afghanistan wars, it was found that this was the only type around today that truly comforts and relieves the effects of PTSD. Flowering periods from 55 to 65 with average to high yields. Veterans like this one for PTSD relief. Mid-range potency with interesting effect. Can be hashy.

The blue moon rocks Gas uses.is from.the old original stock, with Vics blueberry that was used to create BMR originally, its vics BB (which is pretty much a pure landrace highland blue.thai) and some strain with the name moon in it, cant remember right off the top, I first suspected this pheno to.be.the.Nigerian myself till, The variegated leaf trait popped up and I talked to Gas. He said Def. highland blue thai.dominate, which is also.where all the sweet flavors stem from.

Okay that makes sense. I couldn't find any info on the BMR.

But none of mine had any variegated leaves, so I definitely don't have that pheno. The vics blueberry sounds like it would add some sweetness too.

Pheno 1 for me are super fast growers. Clone fast too and branches just jump out after topping. Really cool.

Hey All,

Ive been crazy busy but catching up on the threads finally. Tangie X Sour Strawberries has been harvested and it was a great plant. Currently running 10 more and will be breeding them out. Here is some bud porn from the recent harvest of Tangie X Sour Strawberries.

What kind of smells are you finding? Edit: late to ask the question!
Hey @chiefer888 The smells I got from this were deep orange peel to a bright citrus note. Stem rubs had a chem/funky note. What really won me over about this cross was the flavor. I shit you not... I took an early sample literally right off the mamma and smoked it. Deep orange flavors even three tokes after. That is not something I have seen everyday.
