@mindriot - IIRC, didn't you have a rather frosty Skunk Qabbage/Mimosa? How was the smoke?

I have 8 of the same, just starting to put out some pre-flowers now.

How is the BUZZ from the Americanna??

I gave a pack to a buddy, today, and a pack of Consumption F2.

I was wondering about the Stretch after inducing flowering? Really want a nicely branched, big, fast growing plant that will stretch alot in flowering like the Consumption F2. Since youve grown the Americanna BX, Id love your input. Thanks in advance!!!!!

I haven't grown the Americanna BX, but the Americanna clone that I've grown does not stretch much.
It has a funky smell and taste to it, like a lot of AK Beanbrains gear. Could be the rare or old school genetics that I'm not accustomed to. No gas just crazy rotten fruit, dumpster funk and something like campho phenique.
The high is good with respectable potency.
Well balanced good for any time of the day.
It's medium size colas of medium density are prone to bud rot.
AK Beanbrains is very fond of this cut.

Is the high long lasting?? Potent?? I remember the strains of the late 60s-90s like it was yesterday.

Best stuff I ever saw for indoor, and top 3 of all time was a late 80s, early 90s NL5/Haze x PNW Hashplant x Sk1. Done in 6.5 weeks. 1st week of November outside. Stuff was crazy potent, and would blast your lungs out with every hit, tasted like floral honeysuckle hash, and reeked of sweet skunk, cat piss, and flowers. Truly epic shit. FBI got all of my genes in 97 when a partner ratted me out for 1000 clones and was away for almost a decade, and then supervised release. Stuff Ive been running through since 2009 I can say isnt as good as it used to be. No Way. And I was clean for 12 years. Ive also got an original, not s1 ect Chem91skva clone, and its not as potent as the NL5/Hz, or the AK47, though its really good stuff. Ive had people think I put PCP in the NL5/Hz before. It would also make you lose your vision if you tried to hold a hit. It would blow your lungs out, and blank your vision for several seconds. I smoked it 5 years, and every hit would blow your lungs out. I never got tired of that weed. It was the best stuff Id seen since 1973, which was Santa Marta Green Seedless. First Sinsemilla I ever saw. 1973. It was also the most I ever paid for weed up until that time. $25oz. I could get a 1/4lb of killer Oaxacan for $40. I got some killer Oaxacan one time, and is the only weed that ever gave me auditory hallucinations. Shit was wicked. Pranoid up high with heavy crash, and munchies.
Thats another thing about alot of this so called New Weed... All the best shit I ever smoked in the 60s-70s had a heavy crash, your eyes would look like theyre bellding hours after one smoked. The munchies were magnitudes more than todays weed. But one huge thing is the crash. Old time weed would have a heavy crash, and youd still be stoned hours later after eating the fridge, sleeping 4 hours, and then waking up hungry as hell, and raid the fridge again. I just dont get that with most modern stuff anymore. Could be people have just bred for high THC content, and forgot about many of the other chemicals. IMHO chemically many weeds today are very different than todays weed. Many back then were also land based originals vs hybrids.

My buddy has a mother of AK47 from the 90s, Epic Shit for real....and I smoked some of it as the first stuff I smoked since 97-2009, and had a paranoia attack after just a few hits. Id just got released 20 minutes before, and went to my buddies, and I rolled a joint, and CNN was on, and they were showing the LA Jail, and how crowded it was, and a guy was just being booked into the jail, and here I am, after being under the thumb of the FEDs for 12 years made it seem like yesterday that I was facing big shit for 1000 clones, and it was like I was reliving it all over. It is really good weed. Buddy still has the mother. Nothing around my neck of the woods beats it. Blows all the imported Cali shit out of the water. Its everywhere and has been for 2 years now. Im in E Ky. Also pretty sure a good deal of it is sprayed with terpenes.
The NL5/Hz x HP/Sk1 was better than the AK47. That NL5/Hz-HP/Sk1 is actually what Im in search of, so anything that has old NL5/Hz in it, is on my list to try for at least that side of the genetics I had. AND the AKBB PNWHP/Black Domina x Sk1 may be a close ticket to reproducing the HP/Sk1 as Ill probably never see the real deal PNWHP clone Skelly HP, or Cuddlefish in my lifetime. I wish.

Also every plant from that old stuff was as good as the next one. I never saw one bad plant out of thousands I grew over 5 years. They were all basically exactly the same. Like clones. I attribute the stability to the Sk1 as originally it was advertised as being less than 5% deviations. The weed must have taken on the tase of the hashplant, as it tasted like the best hash I ever smoked, and in reality the buzz was as powerful as any hash I ever smoked.
The weed itself was much better than the stuff Oliver North and the CIA got caught brining in to USA. They were bringing that stuff in Bluegrass Airport in Lexington, Ky in 1984, and was stamped in real gold leaf on both sides. One side was stamper Kabul Afghanistan, and the other side was Support the Freedom fighters, which were the Rebels in Nicaragua. But that weed was better than that Black Afghan Hash, which was $15-$20 a gram in 1984. $300oz.

My nl1/big skunk started out smelling like a new pair of tennis shoes, then it got fruity, now it smells like a dumpster with rotting fruit in it. 32 days into flower

How Fast did it grow, stretch, and does it have good side branching??

The Americanna BX my buddy is going to grow has the Big Skunk/NL1 in it.

Your buds look like they will be dense, and of good length when they fill in. Loaded with trichs!!!! Keep an update!!!!

It grew pretty vigorous. I slowed them down as much as possible through mainlining. My flower cabinet was a couple weeks behind where I hoped it would be at the time, so I let them grow quite a bit in between toppings. But I didn't strip everything below like most do in mainlining, I only cleaned up the very bottom of the plant for maintenance/watering ease. Has quite a few side branches growing up, looks like there might be 2 or 3 good sized colas on top of the 8 from mainlining, plus 8 or 10 smaller ones at the second canopy level. Both of these plants are getting a couple hours a day of solacure as well :blsmoke: I believe it was 18" tall at the flip, and grew to 32"-36" to the tops of the colas. The phk bx in the background of the first pic earlier, stretched to around 40"-42" after the flip. nl1/bs is much hungrier than the phk bx.

I was just thinking about this yesterday. I've gone through a lot of seeds in the last few years looking for the old school days. I just think it's gone man. I think I talked with you in private message about one I had from 1980 that was just the best stuff ever. I had it in the early 2000s and was able to reacquire it a couple of years ago, but it wasn't the same. The lady who originally found it in a bag of weed gave it to someone to keep and I don't know what they did to it, but it wasn't even close to the same. I had some original C99 that was incredibly strong, but the paranoia associated with it turned me off of it. I had some Vic High's Space Queen, which was a cross of C99 and Romulan I believe, that was really good. Have a coffee odor and taste and was great stuff. I found some stuff recently that's pretty good, but not in the same league as the 1980s weed. That was some epic weed.

My buddy wont top his, but will bend them over, thus my curiosity for proliferation of secondary branching, and stretching. we like them to grow as fast as possible.

Im after the thought provoking, introspective mind bending type of buzz myself. Some do find it paranoid, but I like it. Call me a masochist. Also when its that strong, its great breeding material. One can always tone things down, but its hard to find mind warping stuff.

What is your favorite old school mind warping highs?
I remember smoking Thai a few times as a teenager, in Ak, mid 80's and it being a bit like acid.
It always seemed certain strains would cause me to have flashbacks back in my early days.

My dad would get Mexican weed back in those days, that wasn't all bricked up, in California.
That stuff would fuck you up if you smoked too much.
It was like puff, puff that is nice, puff puff things are real nice, puff puff I can't stop laughing, puff my heart is racing and I look funny, puff these mother fuckers are laughing at me, puff I got to go and be alone, I'm so fucking high and I don't like it!
It was great in moderation though.

I remember getting into some Columbia black that I was certain was laced with something. Those dudes were just laughing at me. I was paranoid, bloody eyes, hearing shit. Ya I was a hard pass the second time. Those guys were from Arkansas and had some good connections, plus they were a family of bad ass mechanics.
My dad got the “limon” from Mexico too, there was some serious dank in there! That shit was always super fresh, like not even all the way dry yet.
