I can't really tell, I have a recent harvest drying in the same area and the whole room is very smelly.

Harvested, 57 days of flower
I'm thinking that this strain needs 11/13 to match the flower time provided by the breeder. Under 12/12 she took 21 days to show first pistils and even with a harvest at 57 days I think she could have gone another week.

Yeah, I've topped mine twice and think I'll leave it there.

Looks like she's showing a lot of pistils to harvest. What are the trichs like?

I was getting nervous. Something didn't seem right with this plant and I wanted to get her out of the flower room. During trimming today I found five or six male flowers buried in the main colas so the hunch was right on.

No. I took the whole plant.

I've got two Africans vegging right now. Pretty excited to have them in the rotation.

I saved this plant for re-vegging but while trimming I found some male flowers. Now I am wondering if the plant is worth saving.
There are two possibilities as to cause of the hermie:
1. Small light leak for 1 or 2 days in early August that was fixed.
2. Temps were too high in late July.
Both the light leak and the temps were corrected but I don't know enough about Afghani to know if these corrections will fix future problems with the hermie. The Sativas I'm growing love the higher temps and are doing great but maybe Afghanis don't respond well to that environment. Should I save her and try another run to see what happens?

Here's final post for this journal.
I love the dark green color contrasting with the dark orange pistils.
The buds are very airy and light. This plant is not a keeper.
The buds are slightly over-dried so the total is closer to 20g.
The smoke is excellent. Fruity and spicy aroma, smells very similar to a Skunk-Haze I grew last year. Taste is basic, lacking in complexity but still pleasant and delicious. The high is excellent, all body-relaxing but no knock-out. It is heavy and lead-footed without being incapacitating.
For the high alone, I consider this worth another grow.
Should I try Seedsman again or do you have a recommendation for a different breeder or strain of Indica landrace?

Sweet! I am glad the effects were worth the grow.
I know there are some members here who have fought overseas and have gotten seeds first hand over there. You might search for one and see if they would like to make a deal.
There are also some auction sites where you can locate farmers who will sell you seeds directly from those locations. I almost picked up some Hindu Kush from a family farmer who had been growing it for 30 years.
Sounds like a fun quest.

Hi
I got some freebies of herbies the afghani regular managed to get a female and it's in fifth week into flowering.. It only started showing flower last week this what she looks like
More like a sativa type but then popped the second seed wich has very wide leafs like the one you posted
The explanation I can think of either they chat shit or I got a random seed in there lol... From what I understand landrace should contain one pheno which is the original one or am I wrong.
Still a student
