Aussie weed varieties - what's out there?

Just curious about whether there are any dinkum Aussie photoperiod weed varieties developed by growers here for our great outdoors. Seed catalogues are jammed with ‘foreign’ hybrids pitching claims about yields, terpene profiles, potency and turn-around times, so it would seem we are spoiled with options. I have seen some Aussie-inspired names out there though I have no idea about their pedigrees or performance. Classic landrace varieties are still there (eg. Durban Poison, Thai, Acapulco Gold etc.) though questions keep popping up about their authenticity, potency, often long time in-ground (especially for sativas) and the issue of terroir. Seems most producers can’t be arsed putting in the groundwork to create something uniquely Australian, though I’d love to hear otherwise. Decades ago I sowed pure Thai that was super-spacey, grew like a triffid but flowered when it was good and ready – often in autumn /early winter. I toyed with polyploidy that proved 99% fatal to treated seeds but ended up with one monster female that produced an enormous first harvest, over-wintered and re-shot for a second albeit reduced yield. I found a dozen or so perfectly formed seeds that popped and thrived in the heat but still took 10+ months to mature. Long time to be looking over one’s shoulder. In the interim I’ve grown a few hybrids (Bruce Banner, Stardawg, Forbidden Runtz, Gorilla Glue) outdoors with mixed results re. living up to the hype, and have decided to start out afresh with Durban Poison and Sinai and see where they lead me. Anyone else out there having fun experimenting or growing out stable varieties they bred themselves?
 
That would be a waste of time if it’s a male, cbd oil?

Forgot which strain it was, it’s in vial.



I just checked and it has 3 🥳

^Cheers for the Ducksfoot info. I read about this strain a few years ago and pondered it's dwarfing and stealth potential. Sadly, I'm not in a position to tinker with it for my own particular needs. Could be useful dragging back sativa flowering time, but cloaking and size are traits I'm not too concerned about, really. This seems more like a niche strain needing patience, a clear objective and time to make best use of its genetic assets. Maybe there's a kick-arse terpene profile... idk. Like you, I'd be keen to hear of any progress being made in that direction. I have found a couple of seedbanks listing Aussie-sounding varieties with cryptic back-stories, but that's more of a rabbit warren that I haven't ventured down as yet. I'm sure there are some grassroots breeders out there doing their thing but I guess they're a bit shy to talk about it. Fair call.
 
Ducksfoot and Australian Bastard Cannabis are two different strains apparently that both originate in Australia. What i found strange about ABC was the claims it grows naturally all around Australia but any attempts to dig up further information leads nowhere. Pretty sure if there was some sort of native weed plant there would be some sort of info about it
 
Yep, details are pretty vague and a skim over some other weed forums is also sparse. There are a few Aussie landrace enthusiasts about with plenty of chat about New Guinea sativas and reports of promising grows using those genetics in the humid top-end. Also some salient views about the trend towards feminised and/or auto flowering hybrids at the expense of breeding ops using straight seed. Each to their own, I guess.

Ducksfoot x malawi sativa, grows like a mutant, drips resin like a tap, low cbd, electric weed.
People down under mostly wouldn't respect different strains of weed anyway.
Shit china bud or nugs pumped with silica is the standard these days.
Fuck buying weed, plant it in a local park, 3 feet in the bush, People wouldn't know whats in front of there nose.
 
Watching stupid Aussie stoner's chop weed with their fingers and scissors, and roll a ball of hashish from their thumb and index finger and flick in the ashtray like its a booger...wtf?

Soo.. what do you think is the best way ?
Really does depend on knowledge 🤔
 
^^ Started out like you had a clue, then devolved. What source are you referring to re. Ducksfoot x Malawi comment, or is this some of your own work? And what part of Australia do you hail from to qualify your view on what Aussies 'respect' re. weed strains? Always good to know in a regional forum - to sort the wheat from the chaff.
