Float Tech worked 100% for me in this last go 'round; 2 Thai A5 Haze and 3 Mountain Gold. I didn't touch 'em.. just let them float and do their thing. 48 hours later they were all in the dirt and began to boogie along. In 6 weeks they were all 7 nodes tall.

Tim, your operation looks t!tties.

Can't wait for the flowering to start evaluating traits on all your Malawi crosses @tjmccoy :giggle:
Excellent gardening job preparing soil, cloning and keeping mothers šŸ‘Œ I hope it pays off in the end with a remarkable new selections!

Hello Dubi! Thanks so much for the encouragement and looking forward to your expert evaluation of the flowers! At 4 and a half months old now they are eager for sure!

Just curious have you ever crossed Kali and Malawi?

I have a Thai/Malawi male that has shown pre flowers very early age just 2.5 weeks from seed. Itā€™s flowering is also very fast at around just 10 days of flower it getting ready to drop pollen. Does this mean anything?

Good to hear float tech worked good for you! I also had good luck with it. Thanks for the compliments and following my thread! Mountain Gold sounds amazing, burn one for me. Peace āœŒļø

This clone is only 13 days into flower! cloned 2 weeks prior to the ones in the kiddy pool. Pure Malawi was very slow to show flowers on my original grow of them I think it was 5-6 weeks if I remember correctly. So these sexually mature hybrid clones seem to really be flowering fast!

Down to the last of my stash of Malawi M4, The high, I regard as easily too 5 ever, itā€™s every thing you would think a crazy African sativa would be like, the high is a ride, Iā€™m shaking currently from the high! One jointā€¦ Itā€™s up and powerful long lasting ride and gives you the ā€œcrazy eyesā€. You canā€™t judge a book by its cover, visually you would never know, itā€™s shaggy buds a brownish hue, taste and smell are not off putting and somewhat pleasant yet not anything great in the flavor. It was a stretch tall pheno, aggressive branching, darker brown/bronze hue was different from the rest. Iā€™ve got a jar full of seeds from her, fairwell my m4 stash! You will live on!

Contā€¦ the high still goingā€¦ I got sidetracked and now eating chocolate ice cream and feel less shakey and smiling šŸ˜Š

Last of the stash, but generations to comeā€¦

All looking healthy and happy šŸ‘šŸ¼

Think you could do a great documentary just taking a picture from this postion every 5 - 7 days. Beautiful to me!

Thanks! The Nasturtiumā€™s really look pretty in there and seem to be a good companion, crawling low and shading soil. I donā€™t know if they will flower or not but that will be so cool if they do!

Love is in the air! ā¤ļø Just Starting to Harvest some Pollen. I donā€™t have the time to test a bunch of males so I just picked clones from the 2 best looking fathers, hopefully Iā€™ll do a better job of keeping it contained this time! ā˜®ļø

3wks flower, flowering under a combo of HIDā€™s - 1Khps (vert) + 600Mh + 340 CMH (above canopy) - almost 2k watts!

The 1k is about to get engulfed with foliage, I started from clones to try and keep things manageable, that might be going out the window! Hahaa
