So the Zamal I had figured would be my best plant early on... by far the smelliest of all of them. It reeeeeeks of liqorice. Such a strange smell. Really great structure, not too much leaf. However it also appears to be by far the longest flowering of all of them lol. Just my luck.

I'll get some pictures up in the next few days.
I'm excited to see them!

General grow room shot slight left. Canopy isn't full unfortunately. Going to actually redo things at next lights on significantly but turn off the lights, add the extension to my tent. I think some of the plants would benefit from less light and I'd get a lot more light at the edges of the canopy.

Overall I'm not super happy with plant health. It's been hit or miss. But I'll do better next time. It was a new soil blend and I also mistaken used an old one I made that seemed to have some issues (not suprisingly as the pile was too large and I had a difficult time mixing it so it was inconsistent). Anyway The latest batch of soil I made is performing well for the most part.

Some plants have been N starved - namely the C99 but I've been supplementing. This is what happens when you don't do the alfalfa soak with carbon. But on the flip side I think it's good I didn't for the Peyote Purple and Sativas sake.

I also lost a few large plants that were hermies. I shouldn't have gambled with zamal so much as the line is well known to put out true herms. Anyway no big deal. It did leave my canopy a bit bare unfortunately.

In the tent - Zamaldelica, Peyote Purple, Anesthesia, Black Widow Sativa pheno (still young), Romulan (still young), Tombstone (Ghost OG x Tuscon Haze supposedly an amazing strain that was lost in a bust but passed on to another via seed, these are F2's phx who used to post on here gave them to me a long time ago I should have popped them sooner but I lost them for a long time found them when I moved buried in the corner of my fridge when cleaning), C99 female seeds, CBD Nordle via Dinafem freebie, SLH (young) with a few more young SLH and Jack from Sannie to join soon as well as some more BW and C99.

Tne new plants have a better mix better health although I think the Romulan is suffering from excess light - also too much fan although I have a different one on order had a couple fans die on me near the same time (purchased at the same time glad they didn't go up in smoke like some do I have written down on my new white board a list of stuff when it needs to be replaced tryin to be more organized), BW loves life. I do have the Gavita 1000 turned down to 750. I don't want to put it down to 600 as other plants don't seem to mind as much.




right, C99 in foreground - it was originally under the gavita so I ripped a bunch of unders off, probably wouldn't have in a vert but it stretched a bit too much for my current ceiling height and relative other plant size. Also the nordle, a few Zamals and a PP is in the mix too - the funky one with funky ass leaves. Puttin out a nice amount of nice colas though. Pics later not as good as I'd hoped. Apologies.



Big plant on left is a zamaldelica. Plants near front right are holy princess they had that OG like structure - not big yielders really and a bit nutrient starved due to some soil issues. Most of the HP/Tombstone are suffering a bit. Only one pot is really doing decently. Unfortunate but live and learn. There's a bunch of TS/HP/PP in the mix in the back there with some young BW/Romulan/SLH as well.



C99 top day 36 - just reeks of pure fruit. Only going to yield modestly.



Tombstone top day 36, obvious haze leaner but with obvious OG structure. IIRC I was told the hybrid was super potent, this one might be it. Have a few clones in 16oz cups currently. Looking to transplant in a week or less.




Different tombstone day 36. Similar phenotype but not as frosty.



Anesthesia untopped just a little LST (no breaking). It's in the new mix and clearly needs to be fed, but i has been feedin it. It's hungry. This is only day 25 also. Went in later.



Up close Ana. I successfully cloned an almost 3 month old cutting to get this one back. Not sure I'll keep her, but I wanted to try her indoors and see what's up. She was the general crowd favorite phenotype of the three I ran. The one I lost I think was the strongest one, but shit happens. I know I can reasonably expect to find the same phenotype in a couple packs and it can't be my interest right now - too much to do. Future project.



Zamal left and there's two of my potential keeper in the middle. This one is actually the smelliest plant in the garden despite it's obvious very immature buds (day 36 lol). Liqorice - so so bad. And something else I can't put a finger on. CBD Nordle on the right. Plant has nice structure. Modest resin content but we'll see about it's effects - that's really what counts. Smells interesting, hard to describe but like something I've had before. Not too much smell yet from most of the zamals. As you can see zamal on the left has substantial buds already this early and looks to be maturing a lot quicker. Not much smell yet though and it's a wait and see. All day 35.



Up close Nordle - not too impressive, but looks a little better than this on other colas... we'll see like I said. Might be good medicine for my very old 3 legged dog who previously battled and won against cancer though. So it might not be worthless for me. All day 35.



Up close Peyote Purple. Hmmm resin. Not a tonne of smell really yet. Day 35.



Weird pheno in the vert setup of Peyote Purple - twisted leaf, also the way the stalks grew, they like all just sort of bunched up like the plant was all tied together. I did not have a lot of hope for this one but it's going to produce ok. Day 35.



Up close



I know I'm lacking in picture of some other plants. DIdn't want to overwhelm, but the PP are doing somewhat similarly - pretty decent uniformity IMO. Also no close ups of the sativas, I'll get those another day. This is already a lot. Could have cut out non Ace plants I guess but I didn't think folks would mind too much.

Very nice set up.

All plants welcomed here plus interested in some of them.

You run organic yes?

good job
the zamal looks pretty dang chunk for zamal..is that the auto /zam cross?
zamal i have see was some of the whispiest sats..never seen any bigger than a pencil
supposed to very trippy ..yay
excellent thread..i love sats..you are doing great

So I have about 7 days or so before I chop down both china Yunnan and Maple Leaf Indica. I do plan on staggering the harvest.

Not too happy with Maple Leaf Indica again. She is actually starting to shine in the trichome department, but on the lower buds which seem to be ripening a lot quicker, I'm starting to see a few formations of male preflowers here and there. I did have some heat problems, as I was trying my best to tame those Malawi gals. Can't rule that out and I would like to see the root mass to assess if perhaps she was root bound. Should consider she was near the Malawi plants and competed for light at many points.

China Yunnan still needs to do something for me. She had some heat stress too, but all in all I'm not seeing anything overly striking other than yield.

It's going to be a very good harvest on both of these girls. They are neither super dense, but not fluffy either. They will be easy to dry, yet the sheer amount will make it more work.

Guess what didn't have any problems in the same conditions? Blueberry hill. She is taking a little longer to finish (probably closer to 11 weeks this go round, heat slowed her down), but she's put on so much density that the main stem bent over and her side arms needed support. I have the gal all tied up!

I'm getting the shampoo smell quite strong off some of my peyote purples now. Shampoo is the best way to describe it. Crazy.
That smell will likely transform to more of a berry smell once jarred, but it will retain a shampoo/hairspray taste. At least that's what the two I grew turned out like.

Yield is *very* light on these. Beautiful looking buds, and pretty nice smoke. It isn't dick-in-the-dirt kinda stuff, but it has a very pleasant effect. Indica buzz that doesn't put you down. All in all a nice strain, but the smoke isn't good enough to overcome the yield issue IMO.

That's about what I expected from it. It's better breeding material like Herijuana.

It's gonna yield ok for me I think just by virtue of a lot of veg. But not really relative other stuff.

C99 drove me nuts my first 2 runs, as mid-way into flowering fan leaves began to yellow. Yet, no other strain had the same symptoms on the same nute regimen. To this day, I push that strain w/N to the point of slight leaf tip burn...and the fan leaves still yellow. I think it's in the genetics, has to be. And mine does not yield high, but makes up for it with potency...at least it should.

To all:
That Caribe by Cannabiogen is staying in my garden, nice flavor, yield, and high.

I found a stray amber trichrome on the C99. I also found one on the frostiest tombstone. Still not ready. The c99 I expected to be around 7 weeks. The tombstone? Not so much. Trichromes definitely getting clouded up hard though. It'll be 7 weeks on Saturday.

Probably the frostiest plant in the garden other than the PP is the quick tombstone.

My keeper PP and the twisted leaf pheno both seem to be a bit more frosty than the rest of the PP but generally they seem to have excellent uniformity. I think every plant will give you something pretty similar to the last one.

I also have a Holy Princess that appears to be pretty Santa Marta dominant that's going to yield better than the rest, is frostier than the rest and smells a bit different too. Fairly foxtail buds.

Gotta love new genetics man, always exciting.

Really looking forward to what you think of this one. How far along are you on it?
