LOL!!! you chicks are funny....lol and MTF is serious shit

They are funny! I thought they were sisters when I first arrived here, judging from the way they would talk to each other. And, man, I've always wanted to try some MTF, but isn't the actual line only available in clones? And in Alaska? I've never bought the off-shoot MTF beans from any seed companies, because I've always heard they are nothing close to the original strain.

Stinky - Just out of curiosity, how exactly does a strain become semi-autoflowering? I always thought either it is, or it isn't... never knew there was an in-between! :jointsmile:

Alaskans- 'The' MTF is/was clone-only but it's been passed around like a second-string cheerleader all over Alaska and has several local/regional seed lines that can be considered authentic. There's a bunch of info on it here if you hunt enough. It should have a creeper/long lasting stone, be effective against pain, smell like wild grapes and/or chocolate (it's a complex scent and lovely), and grow very well under lights. Other observed traits are purple striping on calyxes and partial albinism in some individuals. I've never bought the seed companies' supposed MTF beans either for that reason, but if you know any old hippies in Alaska, what they consider 'bagseed' can be pretty damn good shit. lol. There was an autoflower trait in some MTF back in the day but I don't know anything about its origins or why it isn't seen these days.

I am not an autoflower expert by any stretch. What you see in the Mighty Mite line is the trait of flowering under an 18/6 photoperiod rather than 12/12, so plants finish outdoors in early September, making them suitable for growth very far north where frost may hit by the end of the month, and snowstorms in October are not rare.

dead on the MTF....she said it all...lol

Thanks, Stinky, for the background info. :thumbsup:

I actually DO know a hippie who was born and raised near Juneau, and moved right down the street from me a couple of years ago. He's a great guy, and LOVES recanting stories of his homegrown... but he can be a little loopy at times, and I've heard the same stories over & over again. Of course, I never say anything, he's one of those people that you'll allow to do that just because he's such a trip to hang around. It's funny, he'll sit around his house in the wintertime here, either with windows open or a/c running, wearing a pair of shorts and nothing else. Winters here don't get too terribly cold, but it's not exactly beach weather. Anyway, he was the first person to tell me about MTF several years ago, and ever since I've been wanting to try some of the real line. He doesn't know I grow, and just thinks I always have some good stuff on hand. Maybe next time I see him I'll ask if he has any beans lying around from back home. That'd be cooler than cool! :jointsmile:

That's where mine came from. My darlin' The Yeag had his dad send me a bunch from the Kenai a couple years ago. I got some different phenos but all display specific MTF traits very well. The only real difference is plant structure, which varied widely among the plants from those beans, even though the buds all taste similar and have that knock you out creeper velvet sledgehammer feel. I chose a really nasty stocky male from the line to create my Rhinofuck seedline and have been happy with the way the dense buds and black grape scent of the MTF got passed to the offspring. Combined with the copious visible resin production of the White Rhino, it's a nice strain. The pure Alaskan stuff I run doesn't have a very frosty look to it, but hits harder than anything else in my garden, even though one pheno has about the bag appeal of Beasters, AFTER they've been keifed off, hahaha!

Sn, not sure if you're looking for a source for the MTF; if so, seedbanks really don't seem to have an acceptable substitute yet. For other stuff, I've been happy with seedboutique, cannaseur, and a private breeder. I'll send you some info.

[SnSstealth]

not MTF...just somewhere were i will get what i pay for...dont mind cost, if its really the strain it says. would be forever indebited to you for just a direction to get good beans stinky:thumbsup::jointsmile:

Hey hello to everyone...

Hey Stink what do you think is a great yielder that flowers quite fast for indoor cultivation. I have so much shit I've been going through. it takes maybe 1 seed or 100 to get the perfect strain to pump out. I've been on a bad strech now... I need help I like fluffy light colored strong strong weed. Better the THC content the better for me willing to sacrafice Yields for quick turn around I tryed a site you had recomended seedboutique
but with all those strains I just figured maybe you know of a good one to choose from them... Thanks alot for all your posts
