Pyramid Seeds Alpujarrena - A Magical Beanstalk

Discovered in Spain near Grenada, Pyramid Seeds' Alpujarrena is as astounding as Jack's beanstalk.
In her native environment, Alpujarrena has made it to over 1,000 meters when left to her own devices over multiple seasons - no one really knows how long that is or Pyramid's not saying.
Inside, she easily adapts with a smaller size & an astounding 49 to 56 day finish.
Alpujarrena is a fully feminized seed with 17.5% THC, 600 gr/m2 average yields. She's 90% Indica & extremely hardy.

Correction to this - I've been pondering that 1,000 meter bit for weeks.
I live in a flat area, but someone who lives in the mountains pointed out they probably meant altitude rather than height.
I feel like a dumbass, but that makes a lot more sense. Pyramid is Spanish - something was probably lost in translation.

I don't understand what the description means. Is it saying that this is a landrace? With 18% thc? That's about as believable as a plant growing to 1000 meters tall And it's "90% indica"? But it was "discovered"? The whole thing seems misleading and just smells bad

I have to go by what the breeder claims, but you guys know to take that stuff with a grain of salt.
The 1,000 meter height thing - that was completely my fault for getting it wrong and not double checking. Would have been way-cool if true though.

let's put it this way - my employer requires that i go by breeder specs.
angus - i get that you're not a fan of most breeders or seedbanks, but i'm sure you get that i'm doing a job and that rhino seeds sponsors the site even though the vast majority of people here aren't in the UK and can't even buy from us.
i welcome any input you may have about strains or breeders - both positive or negative - but that was just petty & a little mean-spirited. it's sad that people have to be like that on a weed forum of all places.
no hard feelings - everyone has a bad day just like everyone makes mistakes. i'll chalk everything up to that.

You should do some satire. So funny.
I see how you misread the main site description, it's still ridiculous but i see how you did it lol.

Sorry - saw this pre-edit & it was a bit different.
This is not a landrace. To me, it sounds like they started with a Spanish strain & crossed it with something else for better power, yield & finish time.
This is the actual breeder description -
After several years working with this strain from Granada, we are pleased to bring it on the market. It is a fast flowering variety (for about 50 days).
Alpujarreña has been grown to over a 1000 meters; it is a strong plant, resistant to extreme conditions.
When experiencing low temperatures, it acquires a purple tone.
It is a variety with a very good taste and a relaxing effect
Type: 10% Sativa 90% Indica Yield: 600 grams Indoor: 49 - 56 days Height: Outdoor: Early September THC: 17,5 %

I translated the spanish description, it makes more sense. Whoever wrote it at Rhino seems confused. No one's calling it a freaky beanstalk at Pyramid.

It would block out the sunlight, there would be more than one as well. Fucking epic.

Yes we know that she mixed it up. That's already been addressed and clarified. No need to bring shit up again and again.

I write most of the descriptions at Rhino - and yes, I was confused about this one.
I've corrected it for the 1,000 ft tall deal, but haven't done much else with it yet.
Part of my job is to rewrite descriptions to make them unique & to make them a little more interesting to keep people on the page longer to boost the SEO rankings - I won't bore you with the details.
I also have to talk about them without directly mentioning anything illegal especially if it involves growing.
However, I try to keep the details as accurate as the breeder description. The 1000 ft claim seemed over the top, so I went with it. You have to admit my version is more fun to read than Pyramids - or at least I think it is.

I see. I didn't think you wrote the descriptions on the site. It actually did make sense when i read it but it was filled with freak plant references. I figured you picked up on those and did the write up.
I always feel like breeder descriptions are blowing smoke up my ass anyway. It was about as informative as usual.

That would be me - my real first name, but that's not my real picture.
Security & all - believe it or not, we've had a kidnapping because some dumb UK street gang thought because the company sells seeds there must be a ton of drugs on site.
And awesome memory for anyone.

That is so funny - glad to see someone from the UK here
We have gangs here too, they're probably not any smarter.
