Congo x Panama

Congo x Panama

She just keep putting out the pistils (and foxtails). She's looking more ready for harvest today than she was yesterday. Once we've had our way with the Zam and Malawi, she's next. Beautiful plant. Just cut a sample to dry to see what she's made of. Can't wait.

The Mali, as well, is heading for the Great Transition. It's getting to be time...here's a few shots from yesterday...Not a lot of amber -which is fine for me...It's time, I think...Soon come!

I'm just speechless. I've been using botanicare and coco, but have never seen anything close to these in my flower room. I'm going to put more effort into it. Thanks for the inspiration my friend.:tiphat:
Peace, God bless

Congo x Panama

Congo x Panama

So...here's the Congo x Panama about 1/2 way through the chop. Harvest came at the end of week 13. It's interesting, it's like there is a cloud of unknowing around her...I haven't been able to zero in on her scent...Nor have I sampled her. Still...a beautiful and beguiling plant!

Thai x Malawi - Final

Thai x Malawi - Final

So...all good things must come to an end...this is the last remaining plant from the second harvest. Now, entering into her 14th week of flowering, it's just a question of time. Fortunately, we will be running another seed from the same batch...she's just getting geared-up as we talk..so we shall see what the future brings us. Hate to see this one go-we've been through a lot together. We bonded. Well, I guess there's different kind of bonding - I sampled a bud taken last week and she is absolutely interstellar. Very potent...very neo-psychedelic. Operating heavy machinery would be loads of fun!

The size of your buds compared to the size of your pots are tripping me out. Stunning work Mayan. You must have your environment really fine tuned. Everything looks so damn good.

Is this Congo#3xPanama? Im about to get some Bangi CongoxPanama seeds in my mailbox.

The Beginning of the After...

The Beginning of the After...

Thanks for your kind words, PandyFackler! Ya know, I'm not sure...I think it is Bangi Congo x Panama.

Hey, HerbGreen and baduy...So nice to be back playing in the fields of these genetics. I am very grateful!!

And now...the end of the road for the last remaining plant from the second wave...the majestic Thai Chiang Mai x Malawi. Here's her
publicity still before the chop..

attachment.php


And here's a shot of her first tops - after the chop...there's still A LOT more to come. Phew!!

attachment.php


She has a wild scent...herbs, incense. And she tastes of lime. A VERY electric, focused, technicolor high. Long-lasting and comes in waves and false peaks.

Oye Mayan, looking at those grand steeples of yours I can't help recalling Waldgeist(haven't seen him active for ages) who grew similar spires but in smaller pots than yours...needless to say he fiddled with chemistry a lot...how about you?

A splendid job nonetheless!

Ohhhhhh.... sneaky mayan!!! :D

Ok, not so sneaky. I guess I’m part blind to have passed by this red hot thread.

Is this the triumphant return?

Hey, orfeas!!!!! How are you doing? Boy! It's no nice to be back here and "see" all you folk again.

So, yeah, I take a lot of anabolic steroids, growth hormones and performance-enhancing drugs but hey!! Nah, just kidding! I attribute these spires to the wonders of Ace's superior genetic alchemy. We are, however, switching to 3 gallon containers...Using coir, I'm not sure that larger containers are necessary for indoor plants and we will roll the dice that we get plants of similar size - if using similar genetics, that is. We will see!!

Hey, Kalbhairav!!!!! I prefer "stealthy" to "sneaky." Haha. How the fuck you doing my friend? (Incidentally, this grow and last grow have also involved genetics that would be familiar to you from other very familiar, far-flung sources.)

OK, I've read through the lot, taken a good look at the pictures and have come out the other end feeling utterly inadequate ;):D

Unbelievable work mayan :)
You always did know how to grow but it seems this new space has entitled you to another perspective, adding to your powers of potential in a growing realm I might only dream of.

I'll just sit at the back looking confused if you don't mind. Feels safer back here ;)

PS - Ah yes, the other source.. I hope they might make an appearance at some point?

Third Wave

Third Wave

Hey all!!! This is the 3rd Wave of the grow in my undisclosed bunker location. Very exciting! New stuff, old stuff...Here's some shots of the ensemble...As I go through the roster, you will see that Malawis are running wild!!
The grow is organized in three rows...the plants are -um- riotous! The plants are each in 3gallon Smart Pots containing coir. I have come to the considered opinion that 3 gallons or higher are probably a waste of coir and nutes...there's no reason why 3 gallon won't yield amazing plants!

It's difficult to tell but the first picture is comprised of is the all-Ace row, comprised of -from left to right- a Purple Haze x Malawi; a Super Malawi Haze; and a Thai Chang Mai x Malawi...and some plants from the middle row in the foreground...If it's visually confusing, no problem, you will get to know them better when I introduce them in their individual capacities in the following posts.

Here's another shot of the Skyline looking down the row with the Purp Haze Malawi in the foreground, the Sup Mal Haze in the middle and the TCM x Malawi in the background toward the wall.

attachment.php


This is the Gang of Four...quite a difference. Demure, discrete and wonderful. Starting from the Left, these are Ma Petit x Pink Malawi; Dolce 1 (a Chimera plant); Panama Goddess - a clone of the mother we grew out last time; and a Simply Irresistible (Chimera):

attachment.php


And this here is the middle row...Again a mix - Starting from the Right (at the wall): Guawi, Dolce 2 (Chimera); Simply Irresistible 2 Chimera) and a Malawi - a clone of the Malawi we grew last wave...

attachment.php


As I will explain further, the plants are actually flowered at different times...The Panama clone, Malawi, and TCM x Mal went under 12/12 lights on Oct. 7 - so they were about 55 days in at the time of the photos. The Purple Haze x Malawi and Super Malawi Haze went in around October 11, so they are about 51 days in; the Guawi went under 12/12 on October 18 and the Ma Petit x Pink Malawi went in on November 1.

Super Malawi Haze

Super Malawi Haze

This plant went under 12/12 around October 11. As you can see, it's stretch was -um- super! To the point where it has proven impossible to try to get it all in one photograph with my cell phone. So...the first photo shows a spire of the Super Mal (on the left) with a spire of the Purp Haze Mal (on the right). Pretty substantial difference as you can see - they were both put into flower at the same time - about 51 days ago. The Super Mal buds -however- are much thicker, although the Purp Haze Mal is beginning to pack it on in its own way.

Here's the two spires...

Wow. What a room! What genetics! Impressive. Those plants look incredible. How high are those lights sitting?

Ma Petit x Pink Malawi

Ma Petit x Pink Malawi

This here is the Ma Petit x Pink Malawi (or is it the other way around). I don't think it's currently available but I grew it out about three years ago and there was something very hygienic about the terpene profile. It just seemed really healthy! And the high was profound and relaxing. I had to grow it again! The previous version, however was not pink!! This one definitely is...BTW, it was put under 12/12 on November 1, so it's barely over 30 days in...

Pink!!!! Or even blood red...

Hi, Range!! Thanks...The Purp Haze x Malawi, Super Malawi Haze and TCM x Malawi are easily over six feet...not sure if they hit 7. The photos are a little misleading, none of the plants are in the lights - thankfully!! They are closer than I would like but I'm not seeing heat stress at all. Thankfully, we have a lot of head room...my last grow's head room was maybe 6 feet...these lights are easily around 8 feet, I would say.
