The seeds came from a couple friends that have been cultivating organically and outdoors for some years now. Pollen does fly, and these two friends aren't the only ones that grow outdoors in the region. They're mostly sativa landraces, with some indica here or there amidst the genetics. Let's see how they fare indoors!

They're looking very healthy. Stretching a lot since my grow light didn't arrive yet. They take plenty sun daily but the little solo cups are small already. I hope to receive the LEDs this week. Hope the change in light source/ cycle don't stress them too much.

The led floodlight finally arrived! I was able to transplant the plants to their definitive home now. They're looking healthy so I already started the LST. Let's see what kind of yield this sketchy Chinese "150w" will get me. They're growing vigorously, so I was able to LST twice this week. Next week they'll be topped.

Stretchy stretchy gals. Looking healthy apart from some slight discoloration on the lower leaves, which I defoliated anyways. Got a nice S shape on the most vigorous of them.

Sativas grow and grow like crazy. Kinda difficult to manage. They take long to show flowers as well. This week I changed to 12h light period.

Bought a new vape to enjoy the terps once they're harvested. The garden looks like a very healthy grow, 100% organic with no bottled nutrients at all. No problems have happened so far.

Took long enough but now they're starting to show signs of preflower. They come from regular seeds so I'm very happy that I only identified female flowers.

Hello I'm interested in your grows, those plants look like they have a strong sativa preponderance. I'll be following. Regards.

@Gabarram, Yes, the strain is mainly a sativa landrace from the mantiqueira region that's been pollinated by wind time and time again. You never know what's in the pollen, that's why I think they might be hybrids. But they're most definitely sativa dominant. I also recognize a trait that I introduced to this one friend that gave me the seeds. The reddish tint on the stalk is from another landrace from the Brazilian northeast known as "manga rosa".
