Land Race Strains <--- WTF is it?

ty

land race are geniune, un'fucked with, real, old school genetics, for instance, hindu kush, afghani kush, thai, hawaiian indica, etc, that come from a local region, usually apparent by the name, lol, that more often then not have been growing locally in the region for hundreds of years, untouched..

just found this...


A landrace strain is one which has developed in isolation from other strains. In practice a landrace strain is likely to share the same true breeding characteristic as an IBL, the difference being that an IBL has been deliberately inbred to produce homogenous plants where a landrace has been geographically isolated from others resulting in inbreeding. World of Seeds offer many landrace strains from as far afield as Thailand and Colombia.

In practice the terms IBL and landrace are often used somewhat interchangeably; you can find Afghani#1 discussed earlier referred to as an IBL and as a landrace in different places, again showing that all of these terms are somewhat vague when it comes to marijuana (as far as we are aware, Afghani#1 is actually an IBL selectively bred from several different Afghani landraces, but either way it&#8217;s not really worth arguing over, the bottom line is it&#8217;s quality Afghani marijuana).

Thanks.

Now, how do you know if you're getting the real deal?

all depends on the breeder, are you looking for something specific? some breeders are known for their work with land races, like ace for one..

Nothing specific at this time, I'm at my plant count max. Always trying to keep doors open though.
