Sativas, Sativas, & more Sativas......

[Glass Man]

I notice a number of the big boys here are sativa fans, just by reading the little notice under your names.

So, I was raised on sativas and love them too. I'd like to work on my sativa education and many of you guys seem to know quite a bit. I would like to hear whatever any of you are willing to share. Your all time favorites, the best ones we can still get today. How to grow them indoors and outdoors. Which ones are you growing now. Which hybrids are a good comprosise for a pure sativa. Where to get them. Etc.

I used to remember "stobing" when I was young, like a mental strobe light inside my head flashing quicker & quicker until I got that mental orgasim (or whatever that was called). I remember my ears used to get hot inside. That was beginning in 1976 (remember Jimmy Carter & the Bicentienniel?). Was I just a kid and the weed seemed stronger, or was it because it was pure sativa? There was no such thing as "couch lock" back then.

I've recently been growing sativas, after being scared that they were "hard" to grow indoors, and I'm loving them all over again. I had suspected for a long time that it was sativa that I was missing, but didn't know for sure until I grew some. I grew Golden Haze and it's great. I just finished growing a sativa dom beta test from Dman, X13/Thai x City Lights, but it's not dry enough to smoke yet. And I have some Cambodian Flyer F2s from another friend which are about 15" tall and will be planted outdoors in a few days. So that's my sativa history past & present.

Anyone care to share "anything" about sativas, with me and everyone else here, this could be the beginning of a great thread. Thank all of you who decide to share some knowledge (and opinions are good too).


Peace,

most 'sativa' genetics originate from within the tropics (tropic of cancer to tropic of capricorn)

Im doing a little research and will post soon on the history of the Sativa name.

For now ill let you know that my favorite sativa by far is the Kali Mist.(Seroius Seeds)

It has a brilliant sativa high that is very complex and long lasting.

This same exact variety is also available from Sagarmatha Seeds, under the name Western Winds.

Good thread....

I'm just an addict for conciousness expanding spiritual highs......

And I've only ever found that in Sativas,specifically Thai Sativas.

African's have a different twist to them entirely.Some of the most devastaing sweat inducing whiteout highs I've had........face down on the beach ,puking and praying for the world to stop spinning,heavy hand tremors.......HeHe!

Central and southern Amercan Sativas for that party,shit-eating grin,awesome taste giggly high.......

Ahhhh, the joys of them all.

i really enjoyed burmese which is definetly a sativa high but it finished in 9 weeks. looking forward to growing some more of that soon. i want to get some thai but from where? anyone have a recomendation? i smoked some thai spice that was super back in early 90's wish i saved the seeds :(::.....

[Glass Man]

I agree with the laughter & grinning from the Golden Haze (Acapulco Gold X Haze). It really reminds me of the good ol' days.

I have felt that "conciousness expanding spiritual high" recently and it was wonderful. It pulled me from a long deep depression, that had lasted years, and gave me hope and even answers to how the world can, and will, rebound from the political nightmare we are now facing. I realized at that moment, that the answer lies in "spiritual evolution". We must, and will, all begin to realize the simple truth that we are all spirtiually connected to each other. We will begin to learn to love ourselves and each other. Once that all begins to happen it will be contagious (through our connected spirits) and will expand exponentially. That is the next step in human evolution. We will all have love and wisdom. Greed will vanish, and with that the corruption, polution, waste, and want will also disappear. People who truely love each other will not be fighting for power and resources. We will see the wisdom in cooperation and will become united as brothers and sisters. Religions and politics will be unnecessary. The possibilities beyond that are endless and we will be able to tap into powers that are unimagionable to most of us now.

Yep, I just love a good spiritual sativa buzz. Gives you a reason to get off the couch and Live!!

I'm hoping the "Thai" part in Dman's X13/Thai x City Light's will show me that hope again, and again. It'll bring tears to your eyes, just like a good Hallmark movie! I'll be reporting on that one soon.

Peace,

I'm definately going to reproduce the TFD Thai x Vision Thai,and use that line to do a double backcross into the VT as well.Look out "Big Pharma" ,and all your "Happy pills"......

A good Sativa will change your life

[marigyp]

Could anyone tell a humble grower who is particularly fond of mind and spirit altering sativas where he might be able to purchase some TFD, Vision Thai, and or TFDxVision Thai? I have looked everywhere I think, but no luck.

well i think with the death of cbay there isn't a venue from which to purchase these strains. perhaps the creator will have something to add?

i too don't see much available out there. i know dp has a thai but i haven't heard good things about it....

so again i will ask for some recomendations?

[jaharvester]

I smoked a phenotype of Jack Herer(Sensi seeds) that was crazy.
The high sent me soaring into mind numbing thai chaos!!!!!

[Glass Man]

Can anyone comment on the Brazilian Seed Company? They seem to have some good ones. I'd like to try Columbian Gold, especially outdoors. Have any of you folks in the US ordered from them?

Where are some other good places to get sativas?

[Schip]

Love Potion, Manga Haze , Kali Mist, Alaska Trainwreck, and Dr. Atomic's Haze are my top five.

[goldking]

Glassman, you asked about the Brazilian Seed Co,

I just received a pk of 30 columbian Gold seeds,that their e-mail said they posted 5/13.

they arrive untampered and undamaged.

2 +mths ago i had a 2pk order of Manga Rosa (father of WW) arrive crushed due to the fact that the one sided cardboard they used could not stand up to the USPO,s crushers,

after discussing the situation ,and with them remembering my order due to the fact that i went out of my way to send a Crisp New $100 bill(easiest to exchange overseas) the order was only $80 and they sent many extras to compensate and now with them using the hardest cardboard they could find, both the Manga Rosa and the Columbian Gold that arrived today are fine.

the Manga Rosa,s are growing out as a rather unique landrace sativa ..I,m crossing them with a N.Pakistan Indica(Kashmir) female to recreate my own version of White Widow.

there is no problem working with BSC..

seeds are $40USD per pack..send cash registered

happy ordering stay safe GK

[thai die]

the Manga Rosa,s are growing out as a rather unique landrace sativa ..

hey, GK, i ran reefs manga rosa cut, and definitly a unique plant as far as growth. untopped it takes off like a beanpole. smoke wasnt much off the vine, but turned into another weed once cured 30 days or so. potentcy ramps up in the jar, becomes very flavorful.

so hows them strawberry coughers commin along. ya buddin um yet:ninja:

three of your thai X afghani still veggin here.

take care bro, must be gettin all kinds of sunlight up there now eh :cool2:

Some of my favorites are Black magic(african sativa),Panama Red,Haze,thai,and Veitnam Black. I haven`t had any of the new Haze that is out,at least not pure. I `ve only smoked haze bros.and that`s been a while because I haven`t grown outdoor herb in some while.
I`d like to grow outdoors but it would have to be in my back yard and I`d be afraid of getting ripped off. If I can get this indoor stuff down good I might try growing some pure sativa indoors.I still have alot of seed for it.You`d have to pinch and/or fem it even with my tall ceilings cus it grows real tall.In tell then the best I can do is indica and sat dom crosses.

Ace seeds has some nice sativas,Dubi sent me about there whole line up as well as a few not availible, for some Haze seeds that were from 1969.I haven`t been able to get through to him every sence the old CW went down, so I don`t know if he had any luck with them. I feel bad cause he may not have had much luck with them old seeds and even though I didn`t ask for them he sent me so many different seeds in return.I was going to send him some more if he needed them or maybe some of my other old strains.Anyone know how to get a hold of him? Anyway try google for Ace seeds and if that doesn`t work just pm me and I`ll get my poor sad stoned ass up for you and look for that address on the flyer For Ace seeds He sent me.

Columbian Gold,Seems that Acapuca Gold was columbian that was grown in Mexico as the story was, if I remember right? I think they used to scraf the stock two weeks from harvest to deprive the buds somewhat so it would turn gold colour. Wonder if this is alike to that Acapuco Gold from back in the day? Don`t think I saved any seed from then, but I`d have to look to be sure.Well what the hell,I`d have to grow some out just to compare it anyway and I`m to over worked for my health with what I got going in the garden already.
This is krap! the price on the street is outragous,can`t get out to grow in the hills anymore,can`t grow in the back yard cause of the ripoff`s and indoors costs and costs and is still to much work! I miss the old days and youth! But what are you going to do,I need my meds!!!

[bigsur51]

from a UK breeder, Sunshine Seeds, supposed to be 100% sativa, fast finisher at 60-70 days and compact for the indoors....
