Hello once again fellow growers (maybe too much to consider myself a grower already haha);

I'm almost done over here, PCKC's and Bangis are almost ready. Malawis still have a looooong way to go, but they are doing alright.

Today I have pics to show. First, in this post, I will give a little info and a link to an album with higher res of the girls, and then I will post some of the pics hosted here, that will be smaller, for the lazy ones

Pics are not the best in the world, because I suck at photography and I used my phone so, my apologies.

Also, my descriptions of smells are not very good, as I'm not really experienced doing that, so I hope you understand what I mean :P .

Here we go:
______________________________ ___________________________



PCK x Kali China

PCKC#1 (green pheno) - https://imgur.com/a/9gYD9 -12L pot. 77cm tall. Nice and quite strong "classic" smell that sticks to you for a while if you touch her a little; more spicy than her sister, but she also have this fruit-like smell that is so sweet. It also depends where and when I smell; I don't know, this one is quite complex for me to describe. Good amount of sticky trics (bit less than her sister). Medium-size buds, and some of them have purple hues (just a little tho).

PCKC#2 (purple pheno) - https://imgur.com/a/L9nFu -12L pot. 79cm tall. Smells like "putrid fruit" (in a good way) with a ¿spicy? undertone on her. Nice amount of sticky, shiny trics; few of them purple. Fat, purple buds with a big cola (in my opinion). Dark green leafs.

I think they look pretty good, at least to me .

I will harvest PCKC#2 in 5-7 days I guess, depending on how trics look to me. So far she only have ambar at the top, in the outer part of the sugar leaves (wich is good because I want to make hash); "inside" the actual bud she is clear/cloudy, and I want more cloudy ones. PCKC#1 will have to wait a little more, not sure how much but maybe 7-12 days.

I'm checking trics every day. I'm also looking at pistils for future reference.


Bangi Haze

BH#1 - https://imgur.com/a/gzQqa - 25lt pot. 119cm. Herbaceus smell. Poor amount of trics compared to her sister, still in development. Poor amount of pistils.

BH#3 - https://imgur.com/a/PE1ZZ - 17lt pot. 108cm. Delicius citric smell, like lemon, with hints of other things that I don't know how to describe, floral maybe? Quite nice amount of trics still in development. Nice amount of pistils.

Not much to say about these ones yet, as they still have 2 weeks to go, at least. Just that I had feeding problems with them or something (maybe PH?), specially with BH#1. Her leafs are all fucked up, with clawing and yellowing, also purpling in the stems. BH#3 had some problems like this too (not too much. And I think it was because we had storm here not so long ago, so I didn't water them. Maybe the rain flushed some nutrients away from the soil), but I changed the feeding and she looks better now (and smells SO good, mmm); BH#1 is still bad, she also got bent pretty hard by a storm. I guess terpene and tric production are getting affected by this. Also, remember this post I did:

I also got a mutant one (BH#2, that didn't make it pass day 20). So maybe I had a not so great batch? I'm not trying to blame ACE or anything, because these are living beings after all, and I'm really happy with the other plants (only 2 plants that I had problems with, both BH). Also, I'm 200% sure that I could have done it better; I don't get it because she was looking soo good at one point, so probably was me the one who fucked it up, or maybe she was already a weak plant and with my bad care I made it worse. I just want to find answers to what went wrong, and learn from the experiences.

About the size of the buds, we will see how much they grow. For now they are pretty small compared to the PCKC's (this should be normal, as the PCKC's are indica hybrids, right?).


Malawis

Mala - https://imgur.com/a/CnfsV - 25L pot. 95cm. Just starting to form flowers. Thin, dark green leafs. No smell at all, just some kind of freshness. Basically no tricomas for now, but nice amount of pistils. Pretty compact structure I'd say.

Awi - https://imgur.com/a/VhTdn - 17L pot. 127cm. Just starting to form flower. Thin, not so dark leafs. No smell, just this "freshness". Already starting to stack tricomas, nice amount of pistils.

About these ones I don't really have much to say, as they still have 6 weeks to go or so. Awi had feeding problems I think, as she isn't as dark as her sister and have yellow leafs (and for what I've read, Malawis are supposed to be dark green). I guess this was for the size of the pot. She also lost a couple of stems when she was younger because of the wind and my bad tutoring; then she got bent super hard because I des-tutured her, and now she have tutor again. Mala's flowers looks bigger than Awi's ones, but Awi have more trics.

Oh! I'm starting to hate snails by the way...

As you may imagine, I can't stop looking at my PCKC#2. She is BEAUTIFULL, it's a shame that I couldn't make clones of her. I'm a little sad that I have to chop her, but those purple buds will look beautifull in a jar as well!

That's all I have for now. All the ladys are 121 days old (they sprouted the 7th of June) and counting.

And as I already said, I will be growing ACE stuff next year too.

I hope you are all doing well.
Hasta la próxima!

PCKC

Tomorrow I will harvest PCKC#2.

I'm not really sure about PCKC#1, I don't think she is fully ready, but we had rain all week here, and will continue 1 or 2 more weeks. That means high humidity, and tomorrow I have to water her or chop her; If I water her, that means no chopping for 3-4 days. I don't want to have too many ambar with this one as she seems to be more sativa than PCKC#2, and I don't want to ruin the smoke.

Pfffff, what to do... probably I will just leave her those 3 days, or chop the central cola tomorrow and let the other buds mature a little bit more. The thing is that, looking at the pistils, I think this one could go like a week longer, but they finish late September/first week of October, so maybe I'm already waiting too much. I don't know, I will look at the trichs for the 3rd time today, maybe I missed something the other 2 times xD

Noob problems I guess.

Bangis still have a week and a half at least, as they don't have ambar yet. Malawis are starting to look prettier

PCKC#2.

[vcasqui]

I just made my mind. PCKC#1 will live, at least, 3 or 4 more days. Pretty sure it will be more.

[orfeas]

I reckon both could use a bit more of a swelling...

Nice plants!

Thanks Orfeas. I was about to chop PCKC#2 in a couple of hours. I just checked on her again after reading you, and she still have some clear trichs and not even 10% amber. She is starting to show amber trichs just now, and 50% of the pistils are brown/orange, so I panicked . I will let her swell this weekend as I check on her, and we will see how she is on Monday.

What frightens me is that the sun is basically gone where I live, and the Bangis still have like 2 weeks to go or so, and the Malawis... I think they will suffer quite a bit with the temps, humidity (I live near the Atlantic Ocean) and the short days.

Ahhhhh!! I'm a lot more relaxed now xD. Thank you again Orfeas
