Wake & Bake with One of My Favourite Albums and Properly Aged Mexican Sativa!

in cannabis •  7 years ago  (edited)

Today I woke up to a very sunny morning... the winter for sure is winding down, and it feels good after such a long and harsh one!

So I dropped one of my favourite albums on the plate and let it spin while I rolled a joint with one of my personal favourites, that has been aging in the jar since fall 2015.

This wispy bud comes from a central Mexico landrace known as Jarilla de Sinaloa or Cola Borrego. She took quite well to NorItal climate and was ready here by mid October.

By now it's become an incensey, lightly spicy bud with rather low THC content, but with great uplifting and euphoric kick, that puts you in a mood, but doesn't turn you into a couch potato.

Landrace sativas are rarely grown by anybody these days due to their low yield, long flowering time and low potency, but no modern hybrid has such a positive power on your brain and you can find REALLY strong ones if you wanna kick the door out!

She looked like that around the harvest. Colas were quite big, but airy, and flowers were pissy/lemon-scented, but quite pleasant to smell. With time however deeper/stronger aromas started taking over while lemonene was going away with oxygenation

Fresh buds had a classic sativa bag appeal with twirling fan leaves turning golden! There was no real weight to them, but their look was for sure unique, and they were very easy to trim

Very nice! I loves me some landrace sativa!

They're no fun to grow and the produce looks like crap, but there are some good punchy phenos. You just can't get that kind of high from the popular hybrids.

Everything is all about the sticky colorful new strains these days - not the high itself.

Word, man :)

ahh i remember the days of mex brick weed, and sometimes it was garbage, but damn somtimes it was the best!! Only thing bad about the stuff coming from over there is the quality control. Nice post

Exactly! Everything depends on the growing techniques and drying/curing... if you have great genetics like Mexicans. I cannot really say anything about the brick Mexi, cause it never got here, our brick was Moroccan hash :D But if you listen to what old timers say about 70s weed, which was often Mexican, it's clear there were some pearls there, which can hardly be found anywhere these days!

Yeah if somebody pointed a gun at me and tell me to find mex i would be dead! lol It kinda baffles me when people say the cartels make most of their money off cannabis. But i guess in the dark states they have plenty of it still. But even the way it is now i still cant imagine. lol

speaking of moroccan hash, never had it but really want to try all of the old world hash. How is it? and every had finger hash from india?

Yeah it's our bread & butter :) First thing I smoked in my life was some Northern Lights or Afghan bud from Netherlands, but straight after that Moroccan hash became a staple. Most of this stuff is really low to medium quality with quite low THC content, but if you get a top tier, which is usually finished by hand and rolled into eggs, then it's an experience. Classic Moroccan is heavy, narcotic and dreamy and it gets you high for an hour or so. It's usually very aromatic and spicy in taste... well a classic. You can actually get shitloads of Moroccan seeds from Spanish seedbanks if you're interested and making dry sift is not so hard!

Where I live there's abundance of cheap mexican weed, better known as Reggie, you can get about 6-7 grams for a dime. It's not as powerful as the Sativa/Indica but it sure makes for a great time lol

Where abouts are you at?

Classic Mexican sativas usually top at 10-12% THC. This is very different high from hybrids though... if the produce is decent quality :)

Nice. Up-voted and followed.

Thx man, I'm gonna check your content too.
