Oldtimes BX
Also known as: Oldtimes Backcross
Oldtimes BX Strain Overview
Oldtimes BX is an indica-dominant cannabis strain developed by the breeder Ace Seeds through a backcrossing project aimed at preserving and stabilizing the genetics of the original Oldtimes strain. The strain traces its lineage to classic landrace genetics from the Hindu Kush region, specifically the Mazar-i-Sharif variety from Afghanistan, which has been carefully selected and stabilized over multiple generations. This backcrossing process was undertaken to maintain the authentic characteristics of traditional Afghan indica genetics while improving consistency and stability for modern cultivation.
The strain produces medium-sized plants with a compact, bushy structure typical of indica varieties, featuring broad, dark green leaves with occasional purple hues that may appear under cooler temperatures. The buds are dense and resinous, covered in a thick layer of trichomes that give them a frosty appearance, with orange pistils weaving through the compact flower structure. Oldtimes BX is noted for its robust growth pattern and resilience, making it suitable for various growing environments while maintaining the traditional characteristics prized by connoisseurs of classic indica genetics.
Notable features include its strong terpene profile that reflects its Afghan heritage and its relatively short flowering time compared to many modern hybrids. The strain represents a preservation effort for traditional cannabis genetics that might otherwise be lost in contemporary breeding focused on extreme THC levels or novel effects. As with many stabilized landrace varieties, Oldtimes BX offers a consistent experience that reflects the historical use of cannabis in its region of origin, though comprehensive laboratory data on its complete cannabinoid and terpene profile remains limited compared to more commercially widespread strains.

Oldtimes BX Strain Growing Information
Oldtimes BX is considered a moderate difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants have a flowering time of approximately 8-9 weeks indoors and are ready for harvest outdoors in late September to early October in the Northern Hemisphere. Indoor yields typically range from 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-700 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
The strain prefers a warm, dry climate similar to its Afghan origins and can be grown both indoors and outdoors, though it thrives in controlled indoor environments where temperature and humidity can be carefully managed. Plants typically reach a medium height of 100-150 cm indoors and can grow taller outdoors, up to 200 cm in optimal conditions. Special considerations include providing good air circulation to prevent mold in the dense buds, avoiding overwatering as the plants are sensitive to excess moisture, and implementing training techniques like topping or low-stress training to maximize yield from the bushy structure. The plants respond well to organic growing methods and benefit from a gradual reduction in temperature during the final weeks of flowering to enhance coloration and resin production.
