1979 Maui Wowie IBL originally bred by Brotherhood of Eternal Love Breeding Information:
Swami Organic Seed repopulated with permission from original Mr Greengenes 1979 MauiWowie IBL seeds. Known Phenotypes:
A 50/50 hybrid from BOEL sourced and bred 70’s Oaxacan Mexican and Afghani. Selected for potency,taste,and flower shape for over 3 decades by the late Mr Greengenes. Growth Characteristics:
Fast growing sativa expressions with the more desired ‘monkey fist’ indica expressions surfacing also. Scent:
Metallic and sweet cherry and wood smell and taste on most. Appearance:
Taller Mexican Oaxacan spear sativa with subdued Afghani expressions. Effect of smoking:
Moderate to strong sativa/indica based inebriation. Not as long lasting as most Thai hybrids, some expressions are psychedelic in nature.
