Biosystem's Garden of Struggles

Haha, @gedLang, I dumped some coconut water/milk that was about to go bad. I am constantly feeding the soil with scraps from our fridge. I need to be better about adding more bones.
Never thought about adding bones. Wouldn't they take a long time to break down, unless you were drying and grinding them? I do worm bin composting but I do not give them any animal products. Bones go to soup stock for me.

Mmm soup stock.
Yes, bones take a while to break down, but constant additions make sure that you are always replenishing the calcium and phosphates for the plants. I don't use synthetic fertilizers (just a preference), so I have to make sure I have plenty of organic matter for the plants and microbes to access.

WEEK 13 OF FLOWER
Zamaldelica by ACE Seeds

They look good. Hangin' low like donkey dongs. I think the faster one needs another week, and the slower one needs another 3 weeks. Strain is supposed to flower in 10-12 weeks, so 14-17 weeks is a let down, but for what they are, I'm very excited. I can't wait to do another run of this strain, and the first one isn't even over!

I also cannot wait to see what happens once I upgrade my planting bed so they have more room to put down roots. This is all growth from perhaps 9-10 inches of soil.

The faster plant smells strongly sweet while the longer flowering one is JUST lemon-scented. Anyone come across any Zammy phenos like these?

Not sure, you should ask in the Zamaldelica thread in the Ace section. Some sativas will just keep adding more new pistils, but the trichomes will still show doneness by the amount of amber.

Interesting. So ostensibly these gals will just keep flowering new calyxes until they fully die. I suppose I'll have to check the Zamaldelica thread and see if I can get a reply.

WOW!!!

Ladies are looking beautiful. Like I said, right now it looks like green octopi trying to escape the kiddie pool! I can’t imagine what they will look like with more soil.

WEEK 14 OF FLOWER (Beginning week 15 today)
Zamaldelica by ACE Seeds


If anyone recognizes these phenos let me know. There are two plants.

One is faster flowering (15-17 weeks) with longer internodes and far less leaf material on colas, and it smells sweet like barely overripe pineapple.

The other has a longer flowering time (16-17weeks+) virtually no internode length between buds, far leafier colas and a more simple, weed-citrus scent. By weight it's yield will be massive, but much of it will be leaf material, and it will be a nightmare to trim.


I have found tiny white bugs in my clone/veg tent. They are tiny, and I only saw two of them.
They flew away when disturbed. No visible damage or distress on the plants. ANY ID HELP WITH THIS IS DEEPLY APPRECIATED!

Looks too large to be a mite. Maybe a nymph leafhopper? Were they very quick fliers or more like a housefly?

They were not fast flyers. It was almost like a dust mote had become sentient and was floating with vigor. It was like a little fruit-fly gnat on opioids - super slow flying, but definitely flying. Incredibly small.

Any other ideas, @gedLang? I am still learning all the common pests.
