Malawi Gold question

[VanVulpen]

Salut! I have a Malawi Gold female from Afropips. She was the only seed to germinate from a pack of ten but it was probably my fault that i haven't provide them enough heat back in December. I switched to 12/12 on 18th of January which means that she's in flower for 13 weeks today. The breeder says that she would be finished between 14 to 16 weeks, it's probably longer than that but the thing is that i can hardly keep her around these days.
Because of some security issues i had to abandon my 500hps closet and now all of my plants are out in the balcony and soon they have to leave home. Do you think is worth keeping her around for a few more weeks, maybe a bit of force flowering? Am i still going to get a decent smoke if i cut her now and fix it with a 6 month cure? Right now she doesn't seem so potent.
I saved clones from her and i'm probably going to give them a go outdoor anyway: in pots, force flowered from the end of august and with the help of a greenhouse i should probably finish the clones at 46N...
What do you think?

Is there any light that may be visible to your plants during the dark period??

 

[VanVulpen]

No light at all... i keep them inside during the night cause is too cold outside;i also force flower on a 12/12 schedule. The problem is that i cannot continue for long like that, next week the plants have to be out and she will probably start to reveg soon...

You need to cut back on the old fertilizer as your plant looks overdosed on nitrogen,they need hardly any fertilizer if any at all.
If i was you i'd force flower them by bringing them in to a light proof closet/wardrobe after until it gets dark then place the plant so she get's the early morning/afternoon sun light then bring her back in again when 12 hours from sunrise is up(or how ever many hours you give em.
I've got a load of malawi gold from african seed co stock via seedsman which takes at least 15 weeks from the start of bloom.The fem pheno i chose had a real sweet lemon sherbet aroma from around week 4/5,and i had the same problem first run with over fertilizing em.If you've taken cuttings of em like you say you'll get a better more potent plant and they need at least a 3 week cure before smoking as the potency gets alot better the longer you cure up to a point.

Thank's a lot for your suport Marijuanamat, i only feed my plants with my homemade compost when i repot, this one must have been a bit too "heavy" for her, also i don't know what is the ph of my spring water but the rest of the plants seem to be very happy with this regime. I force flower in the evening as you sugested, is more convenient like that, is there anything special about the morning sun? You are very right about the smell, it remindes me of lemons indeed... How is it exactly that the clones are becoming more potent than the mother plant? I suppose you mean that it is easier to achieve a full maturity with the clones, isn't it?

... The breeder says that she would be finished between 14 to 16 weeks, it's pro...

As far as I know, the breeder has passed away.

As far as I know, the breeder has passed away.

are you sure? it wasn't a long time ago since he was banned from here...

...over read it on the boards, and this was confirmed by another Afropips fan not too long ago. Think he passed away earlier this year. James aka MalJim aka Afroman.

Can anyone else disprove or confirm this? WR
