The Zamaldelicas are quite similar, both very bushy. I'm excited to be growing them, I've seen so many great reviews! Smell is pungent and very loud! Did I mention that I'm excited about these gals?

Congos are interesting. Both are very columnar but one has really shot up! If they weren't fems I'd assume she's a male. Interested to see how this one plays out. Smells are loud but not quite as over the top as the Zamaldelicas and a bit sweeter.

Very nice looking ladies Samuel. I'm looking forward to your harvest, good luck. Peace

Thanks, fl! Good to see you checking in. Hope all is well in your world.

I decided to bring my tall Congo down for a more even canopy. She's got a strong stem! A bit of supercropping to soften her up and then some LST to hold her down.

Stunning looking plants Samuel C, are those ZAMS FEMS..? I've only popped two regs but the leaves where not any where as big as those, really nice work..!!

Thanks, TR. Yep, all my Ace plants are fems, purchased earlier this year.

My tall Congo has recovered nicely from her little bondage session yesterday.

Hi Borderliner,

Malawi, Golden Tiger, Zamaldelica, Malawi x Panama are among our strongest strains. Hope it helps!

Hi Samuel,

How are your doing plants lately ? Already into flowering ?

Wish you and yours are having a great start of 2018!

Samuel Caldwell · 01-17-2018, 10:39 PM

Hey dubi and anyone else that's still tuning in. Thanks! We're hoping for a great 2018! I think we're all about due for a good one!

We finally made it through our holiday gatherings and can focus on other things again. We're still putting boxes of stuff away and lots to go before we're done. I've got a call in to the electrician, hoping to get the new garden room wired up and running ASAP now.

The garden is doing ok but not great. Between starting in too cool basement temps and my old soil the girls have struggled a bit. I was excited to use my old organic soil again but I should have spent some time reviving it first. I've started supplementing with some compost teas and aloe waterings. We'll see how that goes but probably top dress with some fresh compost, too.

Lights were flipped 12/27 so 3 weeks of 12/12. First, the full garden shot. Zamaldelicas in the back, Kali China front left, Congos front center and right.

Kali China gal. She's a shorty, only around a foot tall, so I've got her propped up so she's closer to the lights. When she was younger she smelled like my first KC gal, heavy on the oriental spice and grill meat, as Ace officially describes her. She's changed quite a bit and now has a strong mango citrus aroma. Nice! I hope she keeps developing in that direction!
