Hop latent vioroid (HLVd) is a vioroid that occurs in hops worldwide. In recent years it has jumped to cannabis and destroying THC yields infected plants.
It has been reported that scientists from Massachusetts-based Medicinal Genomics have observed a cannabis strain that seems to be partial resistant to HLVd. Jamican Lion is showing resistance and will turn purple as it fights the viroid.
Old School Breeders Association carries the Jamaican Lion Sativa Strain!
While a very Sativa plant, this is the more stout producer, It has the aggressive growing traits in our Reeferman Genetics™ Jamaican Triple Crown Collection with a faster finishing time. The qualities of the Jamaican Ganja heritage are quite detectable in both the growing plants and the dried and cured buds. There are other qualities connoisseurs and expert growers may notice that have some influence resembling Panamanian-Columbian and African Sativa heritage. In the Northern Hemisphere, this multiple cross of World Best Sativa Genetics can produce really big yields of potent buds, provided the growing season is fair into early to mid November. Indoors, you can select for phenotypes (different physical characteristics from the genetic combinations) that finish in as little as 8 weeks from the start of the budding cycle,. Although 10-12 weeks will be typical of many of the plants produced in this cross. Cannabis seed breeders will love the selection of rare land race genes they can work with from starting a nice sized batch of these seeds. Lots of possibilities to create future champions fitting your selection of Sativa based criteria in both growth and finishing qualities.
