Peyote Purple a couple weeks out from being flipped. Kinda has a weird leaf wrinkle thing going on. Not sure what's up with that.... but my god this mofo is a slow one! :neutral:

Very very slow indeed. It's also a bitch to clone. I don't think it will be getting out to anyone but me.... probably great breeding material. No potential for commercial though I don't think. I didn't get any obvious mutants.

I do have phx's Tombstone going right now as well. It does have a weird recessive thing going on with the first true leaf. It doesn't look like a typical pot leaf at all, more ducksfoot like. But not really ducksfoot. Kind of messed up but it seems to be growing fine. Just one plant like that from those seeds.

I got some grape stomper Og From GGG in my collection gonna hold in to them .. So far how would you rate ace overall ?
I'm cutting down Bangi Haze, my first Ace gear on a moment. But allow me to give ya a run down. Getting a little medicated first, so this is a good distraction:
1.) I started out with China Yunnan order and PCK with Bangi Haze freebies.

2.) Germination rates were absolutely terrible for China yunnan. Out of seven, only one made it. Now this is while I'm popping other things and PCK was fine along with Bangi Haze as well as Bodhi gear. No real problems on other gear. Email Ace, just explained the problem. Told me it's older gear and they'd replace it with anything on them. Picked Malawi, sent me 10 of them (original CY order was only a 5 pack). Very quick and great customer services.

3.) All plants are ibl. All were very slow veggars. Malawi was a fast plant in comparison, maybe a tad slower than F1 crosses. PCK were damaged, the cat went to town while they were about 8 inches high eating a bunch of leaves. I was cleaning the grow space and didnt realized he crept in. Neither recovered, or actually it was just so slow I couldn't notice.

4.) Malawi were flowered at about 8 to 10" unsexed. They were probably over 4 and a half feet when I cut the tops as my tent is about and 5 foot 6. Very healthy so far, no intersex traits, and zero issues with feedings.

5.) Bangi Haze is a very interesting plant. For a sativa, it seems to share little identifying characteristics with what one typically thinks of a sativa. It's finishing at about 9 weeks. Has very little stretch, leaf pattern doesn't appear distinctly as sativa. I did catch one male pollen sack a week ago. Haven't noticed any others and it was unopened. If you want to yield on this girl, it seems you need to veg it for longer periods of time. I am looking forward to seeing it's root structure, and I flower in three gallon, homemade air pots. I will say I have disturbed the light cycle here or there f
to water or snap a picture, but I've never seen it be an issue

6.) China Yunnan is showing female preflowers. I'm excited to see how she preforms as she's been in veg for a while.

I'll take pictures of all of them tonight minus PCK obviously.

Edited to fix fuck ups, probably some more in there

Germinated a couple more Peyote Purple. I gave up on one after a week when I didn't see it emerge from the soil, and I decided to use the same container for one of the C-99's I was germinating. Sure enough both sprouted, and I now have two seedlings in one container, and not a clue which is which. What do ya think..... should I try to separate them before the roots grow together, or are they too small to mess with?

You can save separate em still. I wouldn't wait on doing that though. The tap root is fairly tough compared to the sub root systems.

There is a risk you'll end up killing one of course. But I'm sure you have decent hands from playing hockey those years. You could just let them grow up until you can get a clone and go thtat route, but I have found PP real difficult to clone and because the C99 is probably gonna out grow it you might end up with one plant not near as healthy as the other and that plant will be the more difficult of the two to clone.

I think I'd just do it now personally though. You'd already written the seed off anyway, right?

Separate them. You'll know the c-99 by the 2nd set of true leaves if not sooner.

I think if you separate them now, you'll be able to figure out which one is which.

Alright so I trimmed both of the Bangi Haze and the Maple Leaf Indica. Didn't yield much, didn't veg these much. Really thought the Bangi would stretch. Bangi was a little leafy for my liking. Maple Leaf Indica seemed like it wanted to begin self pollinate, I found the beginning of male preflowers. No beans were found and non were open. I can't discredit that I disturbed them during dark periods, and I did miss an entire flower period when the power went out. Yet on the other hand, other gear isn't showing any male preflowers... so I'm not sure. Did I fuck up? Was it ready to come down at week 8 and I just waited a tad long? At least I didn't find any beans.

Here are some photos:

Clones will be taken today of China Yunnan and Maple Leaf Indica prior to entering the tent.

Still wondering on the just harvested Maple Leaf Indica should have been taken down sooner. Was a little amber but mostly all cloudy. Perhaps the few light leaks, but I'd think it would affect other girls. Well I'll see how her stinky, and I mean straight up offensive vegging sister performs.

Got one more space to fill up, wondering if I should run something I know will perform, or start sexing Tranquil Elephantizer Remix

The day after I made that post I saw a nice bit of roots in a bunch of PP clones. Go figure. Still took almost 3 weeks.

So I dumped the pots that bangi haze and Maple Leaf Indica were in. As I suspected, the root mass was less than other strains despite vegging. Usually I veg in a gallon pot, and transfer to 3 gallon upon flower. Typically strains will fill that out pretty quickly, alas not with ibl. The China Yunnan has been vegged for a while in 3 gallon pots so I do think as long as she doesn't show intersexed traits, should be a good performer.

Here are the sexy Malawi girls. Interesting to see how they differ from even sativa dominate hybrids. Smells of licorice are present, and they have a sweet aroma to them. Perhaps I won't toss the clones and will just hold onto them in case I find something special.

As you can tell, they are very bushy. The branching isn't a problem now, but I can see it being an issue once weight begins to pack on.

Here is the next Maple Leaf Indica. As you can see, she is a she. Easily one of the most odorous plants in veg. She has a nice root mass in the one gallon pot and I transfered her to a three gallon. She will go in the tent when I take down White Lotus #1. Figure I'd give her a couple days to acclimate to the space. I will be keeping a close eye on her, as her sister had late male flowers. I'm still wondering if I made a mistake or took her just a little long at 9 weeks.

Here is a bud from Bangi Haze. Really needed to veg her more, root structure was lacking, didn't clone her. Was a little leafy for my tastes but I don't think I grew her to the best of her abilities. I am liking the aroma, she smells like a forest after a fresh rain. For full disclosure, I did find a single unopened male flower around week 8. Could have been stress, or self survival. I did water and open the tent on occasion, but it really shouldn't have been a problem.

Here is Maple Leaf Indica. Frosty plant, didn't clone her as she was a bean pole, and she suffered from not having a sufficient root mass. As mentioned previously, I did find a handful of early unopened male flowers. This was at week 9, so perhaps I could have taken her at week 8. She didn't do much after week 8 like I thought she would and I had a harvest schedule.

Note, all IBL minus perhaps sativas (except Bangi Haze as it is apparently a sativa), you need to really veg these girls out to get the harvest you desire.

Maple Leaf Indica number two who is recently transplanted to a three gallon will take the next open spot in the tent, just want her to veg more in the three gallon in order to achieve a larger yield

Totally agree. Would love to cross it Jabbas Stash, then BX. See where it goes from there. But the bag appeal alone is insane. Probably most I've ever seen. Effect/yield could improve.

Patients LOVED it. I think MANY people get mindfucked by bag appeal and it's a go once they've seen it.

Both Bangi Haze and MLI look nice and frosty in both pics

Interesting to hear about your ML, I wonder if it was a smaller pheno you got. Hopefully the second one will put a little more weight on for you.

Looking forward to your smoke report.
