New cannabis strain discovered in Australia

 

CC has found a variety that doesn't look like normal pot.

Australian Bastard Cannabis

 

Cannabis Culture has discovered a strange new strain of cannabis, never

before seen by CC staff, or any of the researchers we¹ve contacted.

 

We¹ve dubbed this peculiar strain Australian Bastard Cannabis (ABC), and

although it¹s definitely pot, it sure doesn¹t look like it. The variety is

also referred to as Bastard Skunk, although we have no reason to believe

it's actually a Skunk derivative. The ABC has a different leaf structure

than regular pot, and its general growth pattern is more like a shrub than

the stately cannabis we¹re used to.

 

The seeds were acquired from an Australian grower whom I visited during

May. Details of his techniques and how he came across the strain are

available in Cannabis Culture #19 (July/August).

 

I smoked some of the cured buds from the ABC, and although it¹s clearly

pot it¹s not a very potent smoke. Yet there is hope, as I screened some

dried buds to extract the trichromes, and when I was done the resulting

ABC hash was a nice smoke with more kick than the bud. Ideally, proper

breeding and crossing with more potent strains should produce plants which

combine potency with the unique look of the ABC.

 

CC has acquired hundreds of ABC seeds, and they are now in the hands of

dozens of seed breeders and growers across North America. Within a few

months the first ABC crosses will be available, and hopefully within a few

breeding seasons crosses will be developed which contain all the desired

characteristics.

 

ABC traits

 

The ABC grows no fan leaves. All of its leaves are short and small, and

all have an unusual and irregular distribution of stamens within the leaf.

The ABC looks more like normal pot when it¹s budding then when it¹s

growing. At their peak the heads do resemble the buds of ordinary strains,

but even then it is still different enough that it might go unnoticed by

the casual observer.

 

While in vegetative growth the plant looks little like regular cannabis,

growing in a shrub-like fashion, without the traditional candelabra shape

or other identifying characteristics.

 

The Bastard Cannabis has proved itself to be a hardy, frost-resistant

plant. The ABC has consistently survived frosts which have killed other

plants, possibly making it suitable for growing in more Northern climates.

As an experiment, Ayers has taken large cuttings with multiple leaves and

branches, and they have all successfully rooted.
