Laughing Hyena Breeder's Lab

[LaughingHyenaSeeds]

Hello everyone.

We have some news for growers who want to experiment with breeding.

What is Laughing Hyena Seeds - Breeder's Lab?

We’ve created some regular autoflower strains for people interested in breeding and creating their own strains.
​

A few growers have asked us for regular seeds. So here we are, our first official release of Golden Stick. We used our Golden Triangle auto (unreleased) which is 3 landraces in 1: Myanmar, Thailand and Laos crossed with our Lil' Stick.

Golden Stick is a cross between our Mango Stick x Golden Triangle auto.

Will be released shortly at @CoastalMary

Nice offering mate! Particularly because it's your own landrace blend of equatorial NLD Sativas, something there is damn little of out there... This is one of the best things about your brand my friend, you roll up your sleeves and and get busy working from "scratch" to make cultivars that are off the McBeaten track and are so very well made!

I marvel at how you're getting it done with these types of NLD's... I know several real fanatic Sativa grower/breeders who work with them, and it ain't for the impatient or faint hearted- LOL ... Looooog bloom cycles, some with inherent hermie tendencies, often highly variable quality/pheno expressions... From the plant's perspective that's a real plus, as it assures damn well that their genes move onto another generation!

I have seen some interesting natural spins on such NLD's, specifically natural "auto"/semi-auto behavior... ThaiPan 2.0, some Papua New Guinea, African, central/south American landraces with the odd plants that will bloom under long light hours, way above their native ranges!
I have speculated about them being made into true auto's, or being used to make them. Now often as not, the bloom times in them are still very long, but that has nothing to do with "auto'ing" definitively....
Furthermore, I think that the genetic "mechanism" behind this is coming from a different angle than what ruderalis and/or what the original Lowrider is doing...

Looking at the other side of the coin here, any projects happening or planned with olde world hashplant Indica's? I saw the Northern Afghani of course, but seems that's not around anymore? The Leb' Acid, Dead Skunk definitely represent -

Anyway, can you share some details about GT, like life cycle times. morphology, some background history of it and the 3 cultivars it's made from?
I'm thinking that the crossing with MangoStick really tuned G'Stick up into a marketable auto...

Thanks for the kind words Waira, lots of good breeders out there as well, who take the time and effort to create some amazing strains.

You're right about the hermie tendencies specially with landraces. In my opinion any strain left to grow way after it's "finished" and grown outdoors will have hermie tendencies after a few generation(s). The plant is trying to preserve itself as you mentioned.

There are some fast finishing landraces, Moroccan Beldia being one of them. I would put it in the category of "fast finishing photos"

There is a Siberian true landrace auto

In terms of Indicas Northern Afghan is still around and for sale:

Lebanese Acid, is more Sativa leaning due to the autos used

Purple Chunk, which has been sent out to testers last year is a heavy Indica leaning strain. Thanks to the help of someone on this forum it will make it's way around again.

Golden Triangle:

G.T was another pick up from Thailand. We were going around all the smoke shops asking if they had seeds for sale most of them didn't.

Stopped at this one small shop, I can't recall if it was in Hua Hin or Phucket, I do recall it was a cool little shop with a live plant outside. We had a local friend translate and ask them if they had seeds, after a minute he came back with some seeds, looked like it came from his personal stash.

@Buzzard showed some interest in breeding autos. So I had sent him a few Golden Triangle autos, Mango Stick x Golden Triangle as well as Sowahh Queen x Golden Triangle. He is the only one other than me to posses some Golden Triangle and Sowahh Queen x Golden Triangle autoregs. You can seee his breeding journey here.

I would say cycle times can go up to 100 days. Fruity aromas, some can get really tall with narrow leaves. More narrow than Lil' Stick.

It's 3 landraces in 1. Myanmar, Thailand and Laos. I should mention we didn't make the photo cross ourselves, it was given to us like that.

The Golden Triangle.is a treat. It has a nice fruity taste , but what really sets it apart for me is the high. It doesn't seem to have a ceiling. It really helps in the pain department as you can keep hitting it until the pain melts away. It is a bit of a beast, I had to supercrop to keep out of the lights. It is on the slow side, and is a 100 + day plant. I am going to run the GT X Sowahh Queen in the greenhouse to see if that is a little quicker. The Sowah queen should really give it a chunkier bud structure and hopefully speed it up. I dusted some GT pollen on a couple of Mephisto medicinals and I think the GT X Canna-Cheese is going to be a really nice plant.
I also concur with you on what you said about L.H. I also love what he does with Landrace conversions. I was pestering him to do a conversion of the Landrace Panama Red that Dr. Greenthumb Seeds offers, and he talked me into having a go at cannabis breeding myself. I thought it was incredibly generous of him and I can't thank him enough.

Cheers to you both!

Yup, from what I've gathered that's especially true of the more equatorial NLD's... Some of the Sati-heads breeder/preservationists fight this at times, sometimes with a pheno' that's otherwise excellent. And going both ways, males throwing lady bits out! One guy just for kicks reversed a male LOL
Modern hybrids sneak sack out too of course... pretty much every season I find the rare nice bean or two but never saw the 'nanner that popped it off! Fortunately I've only had a few fem's really go diecious on me with full on male flowers, always at node junctions, not talking in-bud 'nanners here...

There are some fast finishing landraces, Moroccan Beldia being one of them

I've eyed that at ACE, tempting...but I held off as my climate is about as opposite as it gets from it's native one...

It's 3 landraces in 1. Myanmar, Thailand and Laos. I should mention we didn't make the photo cross ourselves, it was given to us like that.

I was wondering! That's a massive project alone to make and fine tune... But it's a natural blend from their region. Fantastic that somebody else did the leg work and then was shared to you down the road- -- another great find!

I dig the cross choices, like with like and an interesting curveball throwing Diesel genetics in to that mix -
Ditto for Cheese! I can't even guess where the aromatics will go on these two...

I would say cycle times can go up to 100 days.

he Golden Triangle.is a treat. It has a nice fruity taste , but what really sets it apart for me is the high. It doesn't seem to have a ceiling.

100 days sounds about right to me, it'd have been my first guess... That is a massive reduction to say the least! 100 days in the parent(s) blooming would see you about 2/3-3/4 ways done only...

also concur with you on what you said about L.H. I also love what he does with Landrace conversions. I was pestering him to do a conversion of the Landrace Panama Red that Dr. Greenthumb Seeds offers, and he talked me into having a go at cannabis breeding myself.

...beyond refreshing to see offerings going away from the pop culture path! And the potency can be quite the surprise sometimes. The Burmese Pure I grew last year was amazing, I was genuinely shocked at how strong she was AND the exceptional quality of her high... One of the warmest floaty-happy Sativa types I've even had with a clear headed come-down. Her aroma is enchanting, very terp rich, floral-citrusy candy-ish. To look at her you'd not expect it, not very pretty in color, not sugar-dipped looking trich coverage, though the aroma is very IYF!
I prefer this high over the Hazey crosses I've had in the past, not a hack at them at all mind you, just different,...

Raw THC% isn't where it's at for the wiser tokers... all that glitters ain't necessarily gold!
