Tashkurgan #10, female.
She wasn't planted until much later, late June if I remember correctly, so she is much shorter than #3.
I can get an image of the top cola without resorting to a step ladder.
Note similarity in bud structure to Deep Chunk (Freak Chunk) posted above. Leaves are different.
Side cola

@Jim Dandy let me know when you need testers for that. They are some beautiful girls, can't wait for the color show.

On the wild sativa side:
A Heirloom Yunnan hybrid, beginning to bloom. Volunteer #7.
A skunk or racoon dug up the bed where I direct sowed the "My Love Has Wings" seeds last Spring (page 1 of this thread).
And volunteers came up also... So I am not certain of the parentage of this one. There is Yunnan in there somewhere that much I can tell.
The "My Love Has Wings" is a hybrid of Bodhi's Heirloom Yunnan sativa.
I see a couple of seeds developing.

So.... I have been calling the Afghani Tashkurgan strain I am growing a "Heirloom" when perhaps I should be calling the strain "Landrace"?
In vegetables a "Heirloom" is a strain that has been selected and grown by Homo sapiens for a long time.
Clarification on this subject is requested.

Volunteer # 5, best guess: (Yunnan x Satori) x Tranquil Elephantizer hybrid.
The Yunnan and Satori are giving the height. The Satori is giving the color.
I have noticed red stems and red leaf stems in Satori hybrids before, coupled with dark green leaves.
One of my favorite plants this year.
4 volunteers had purple stems, #3, #4, #5, and #6. I kept all four plants.
These are side colas, well seeded.
This plant was not staked. She laughed at the wind and rain.

These one gallon plants, thrown into the ground in mid-August, are doing quite well now.
They are 2 to 4 feet high.
I will not get many seeds from each plant, but will have many seeded strains.
The 'Afghani mix' from The Real Seed Co. are on the far right.
Purple colors will show up when the weather cools off.
Breeding stock!

Landrace to me is like an open pollinated crop not untouched but unselected.
Heirloom is hand picked plants need based on a trait.
Does that make sense?
The Real Seed Company on the Growroom420 podcast - The Real Seed Company I think this is the one

Completely agree with this analogy?Landrace, to me means, it is what grows and reproduces naturally in the wild, in any given geological location (not unlike an OP). Creating more of a chuckers chance/roll of the dice, while containing much variety in it's offspring.
Heirlooms are a result of selective breeding and chasing/handing down desired (locked in) traits from generation to generation. More like a trademark or calling card. You can depend on that seed growing true to form...mostly uniform, but resulting fruits should be the same. As it's repeatedly described by breeder/grower accounts....
Cannabis, I feel, is far behind in this aspect of botany...so using tomatoes as an example. Brandy wine, Purple Cherokee, beefsteak, black krim, Hawaiian pineapple, among many many others, just to name a few... Can be and are referred to as heirlooms because they've been hand picked/selected for specific/desired traits...
Could be on F69 for all we or anyone knows, but wouldn't really matter much as they're supposed to produce constant traits and results...the whole point of 'true breeding' in it's core n essence...cause, I mean, that's the ultimate point of actual breeding, right?!
Cannabis seems different, for now at least, but I think mostly because of our lack of knowledge and experience but also because of the hate and resistance from bs propaganda that was engrained into many minds over the decades...I talk a lot sometimes, and I'm high as fuck already, I'm tapping out for now ?
