Taskenti from Cannabiogen. The real hashplant

Ailalelo said:

I'm going to pot these twentysomething Taskentis that sprouted. This is a grow to select the best specimens, the first in a while. I have made seeds with different males, so I'll have to make different grows for selection

Do you have any seeds for sale or trade?

Yes. I have the seeds I've made, and I am now making a good selection to make feminised seeds in a near future. What do you got? Send me a PM

A couple of Taskentis at 4 weeks and a half. They look exactly like they should.



Cheers

A day short of 6 weeks. I love this sugar, it means a lot to me. This is one of the three specimens I am flowering now from the same batch, and all the three of them look very good.

Nice Work.
That’s some sweet six week sugar.
Great genetic. I hope to get that one day.

Nice plant. It’s great to see this old thread and project still going. Big respect to people who have the patience and passion to work on a long trerm breeding project.

52 days. I'm giving them nothing but water, because I'll harvest them in some days. The abnormal high temperatures of these days have taken a toll on them and many leaves have fallen or died, but anyway the buds are hard and resinous and they will be fine.

Some days after 8 weeks, I'm harvesting some specimens. These two, TT9 and TT12, come from the last selection I made a couple of months ago. 8 weeks is not bad, but I'd like to have the patience to wait for another week, since one of them, TT9, could get fatter, and stronger. The other one, the first in the pictures, seems done. Not much odor, as expected in this strain, but a nice resin coat and dense buds. As I have already smoked them a couple months ago, I can say that they are the ultimate indica effect I look for, and now I aim for better grow conditions to make the best of these cuts.

I've just harvested some Taskentis. I made these crossing the mother selected from 2008 CBG seeds and the #3 male from the 2012 version. The 2012 version was a step back in the selfcrossing the CBG guys were doing the years before, which drove them to the genetic problems, so they are more untamed and better for the kind of work I am doing than the previous versions. And so they look: big, productive and strong, in a mechanical way.

They are at 60 days, under LEDs. Taskenti is not fast, but it is worth it.

I don't have cuts of all them (they are more than a dozen) but I have for most, so next step will be to test and select the best ones.

Pictures aren't very good, and I couldn't find something for scale (next time I'll try to put a banana or something) but I hope you will forgive me.




Nice smokes!

I've been curing the Taskentis for a month. Now it is the time to test them. I have already made a preselection and I decided to keep these:

-TT2012-3 #2
-TT2012-3 #7
-TT2012-3 #12
-TT2012-3 #13
-TT2012-3 #16

All of them are closer to the 2012 batch than they are to their mother, the selected cut from 2008, and also they look better. It means the male from 2012 dominated this incross. The smells are not as strong as in the 2008 cut, but they are stronger than they were in the original 2012 batch, if I remember correctly.

Some of the plants, #2 and #12, have a nice eucalyptus anise flavor, but #12 is got some mushroom scent also. #7 and #16 are stronger in flavor and have a petroleum background that makes the mix deeper.

Right now I want to keep all them, and I'll do for a while. It is possible that I cross the 5 different females to some males I am actually growing from seeds from the 2005 batch and the selected 2008 cut.

Man that taskenti bud shot you posted on page 7 is a look I sorely miss. I saw that flower type in Hindu Kush floating around LA in the 90's. It was subtle smelling but so nice. . Let me know if you'd ever want to trade some beans and keep up the great work.

Thanks! Sure I'd trade some beans. I'll need some time, these I'm sprouting are old and I'm selecting specimens to make a fresh repro, and a female version
