honestly lovely colas, you were worried about moving indoors but I think you are a natural.
keep up the good work

what soil brand had gnats?(to avoid it)

[Koondense]

Thanks Dion for the compliment.
I think the gnats migrated and laid eggs in my worm castings which I used in the top soil mix along with BioBizz lightmix(which is sterile no doubt). I have a mini bio dumpster(gnat magnet) one meter from my worm castings, the bag was not properly closed I noticed later.
So it was a consequence of a mistake I made, not a matter of soil.

HBGE, you said 60 days only? That's fairly quick for a cross like this, but looking at my lady it well may be this way. Good to hear your reveg attempt was successful, did you reveg the main stem with roots or took a clone from a flowering plant?
I took some clones but they don't look good, are struggling at reveg.
If I have the space, I'll try reveg the stem of this seed plant and put it outdoors in may.
That's many "if-s".

Next week I'll build a small veg box for the second round, just thinking which seeds to pop. I'm tempted with the Ace fem mix, or it could be some fems I already have, not by Ace.
Hard to decide, just as always.

Koondense. It was a reveg of the main stem.

...and I agree, seemed unbelievably fast for what it is. Mind u, I could have let it go another week, but it was definitely the opening of the harvest window. Once this first round of clones finishes in a few more weeks Iwill have more of an idea of what this plant is all about. So far, I'm impressed.

Today is 52nd day of 12/12

Nothing in particular is happening except the smell is increasing and trichome production is amazing at this period. Also buds are swelling of course

I assume both Zamal Hash plants will have a similar harvest window, I suspect will be open at around 65 days. The Bunny(seed plant) looks amazing and could be already chopped but let's not rush.
Cognition is of course stil behind, only now some stigmas on the main colas are starting to turn orange. The plant has many imbalances but takes them without much complaining, I tied the main branches so they won't lay down because of the weight.

Checked the trichomes on Zamal Hash 'Bunny' plant with a lens and most are still clear, very few are cloudy. The smell is gorgeous, lemon peel with pine spicyness. I love it.
Otherwise doesn't smell much until you touch it.

Tried making some photos, here's the only one I would put on a calendar




The next phase if my indoor experiments just started, I put to soak four seeds of RQS Power Flower. But that's another story.
Would love to try the new Snow Moon, maybe some other time.

Beatiful Zamal Hash Koondense

Love the contrast between the high flower/leaf ratio with very long african sativa pistils and the resinous hashplant ovaries I think they will be ready in 2 weeks or maybe lesser.

Bio Bizz fertilizers are soft, but good quality. I've been using them for almost 15 years (mainly Algamic, Bio Grow and Bio Bloom, sometimes Fish Mix too).
I like the natural taste and natural vibe that they provide to the final product.

Bio Bizz organic line is not strong, so it's important to prepare a rich soil with high quality peat, worm casting and guano as a base, then correct the slight deficiencies in late veg and flowering with a bit of fertilizer.

Anyway, lesser is more when talking about fertilizers, especially if the main point grow is to harvest healthy and tasty flowers with the best natural vibe.

Good vibes!

Hi Dubi,
seems my soil mix was lighter than expected and I underestimated the plant's need for nutrients at the period before the switch. Used only Bloom and Grow after few weeks in flowering when I noticed the yellowing. Couldn't recover the plants as fast so it led to loosing some fans on both ZHs, also Cognition was affected and reacted quite differently.
My observation was the ZHs showed loss/gain of green more dramatically while Cognition was more gradual and slower to respond to feeding. The consequence is it now has yellow leaves with burned dying tips. I was thinking of defoliation but prefer to leave them until total fading.

For the next run the soil mix will be stronger although I had in mind to try a light mix and adding only liquids. It's hard to decide between such different approaches.

[jay sus]

again. my both zamal hash plants did the exact same thing, also my 1 zamal reunion. they had yellowing leaves, from bottom up, all the way to the top. kali china for example which had similar growth habit did not. same feed, same soil mix, so it has to be ZH trait, so i would not think too much about it.

[Koondense]

Interesting indeed jay sus. Thanks for the comment(again).
Hopefully this trait won't pass to the next generation of seeds made with the KC father.

My concern would be the outdoors, I think yellowing and dying fans only increase the chance for molds if grown in a gierrilla environment. Strangely I didn't notice such yellowing with my ZH mother, or maybe I wasn't aware at the time.
I'll see how the ZH clone will respond, if it will behave the same way in the next cycle.

Nice buds bro, dont worry much about some yellow leaves..they are still performing more than great imo

[farmerlion]

Nice read, Thanks for the thread! Peace
