Zamal Bliss limited edition

[kannamed]

I realize that Zamal Bliss was a limited edition and that it is no longer in the “sticky” section, but I would like to leave my comments here because this strain has become one of my favorites. Here are a few pics from my indoor grow.
From a growing standpoint, she has all the great pest and fungus resistant characteristics. She does really well with high and low temperatures. She’s a bit picky with her nutrient requirements. I grow all organic with no bottled nutrients, but she did resent some of the “hotter” amendments that I gave her. However, all in all, she grew like a real queen!
The two phenos that I cultivated, were very similar, just like dubi describes on the first page of this forum. One of them leaned towards the Zamal side, the other towards the Nepal Jam side. The effect in both cases is exactly like it was described by dubi: “Cerebral, energetic and creative tropical African sativa effect with no ceiling, where the Nepal Jam brings its unique and clean positivity and warmth”.
Going into more detail, I would add that there are three characteristics that she doesn’t have which I find amazing: She is not introspective, she doesn’t give me the munchies and she is not crazily euphoric. That being said, she makes you very happy and gives you a feeling of extreme peace and wellbeing. She allows you to be alert, and have a great, focused, profound conversation in a social gathering.
I would say that her emotional medical value, is as a natural anti-depressant. It could also help people who have difficulty at social gatherings to feel comfortable. As for the physical medical properties, taking into account that she has tested high in terpinolene, she should have anti-cancer and heart protective properties.
The aroma is primarily floral, leaning towards lavender, but also has some resin and other background smells. The smoke is smooth.

I just randomly googled this strain and there is still at least 1 website selling seeds of it.. Although it was a pretty random looking site.

Welcome to our room on ICMag kannamed What a beautiful and interesting post to start The BUMP of this thread is a sweet surprise thanks a lot!

Really happy you have had a pleasant experience with Zamal Bliss (both from the grower and smoker side) and that our strain description is accurate with your first hand experience with this genetics.

Lovely finished cola pics of the purple Zamal dominant pheno. I like a lot the way you describe her, you really captured the personality of the strain in your description: smooth smoke, uplifting, expansive, well focused, postive and anti depressant in effects, with a delicate floral and sweet resins palate and nose.

Despite Zamal Bliss is already sold out here at the source, some online retailers may still offer Zamal Bliss on their websites, but better ask them first if they really have Zamal Bliss physical stock before doing the purchase.

I'm always late to the party. Here's my 6 Zamal Bliss at 28 days of 11/13. They're well behaved and seem like they'll yield well. I really enjoyed the Zamaldelica so I'm hoping there is a hint of that in this hybrid.

Nice to see Zamal Bliss grow once again. I grew them outside... very large creatures. The effect was lively, not hectic and clean and, later, with your eyes closed, also quite crazy ... like the smooth surface of a lake, into which something suddenly falls and the scenery completely changes, I have experienced it from time to time.

Here is my latest Bliss harvested after 70 days..

She grew a lot, had seven to eight branches falling all over the place. The buds are rather light and the smell very raw. I had another Pheno two three years ago and found it quite interesting and exotic. Nice smoke to have a vacation from the usual hard hitting strains.

51 days of 11/13. All six are doing great. The right font plant has mostly brown pitstils now and will finish first. The rest are still in full bloom and look to be 11 -12 weekers.

67 days of 11/13

I harvested the first Zamal Bliss at 70 days of 11/13. The leafs had a dark purple hue to them.

The rest will be another 5 - 10 days of flush. They're fading nicely.

A joy to admire your beautiful and sucessful Zamal Bliss harvest @smilley great growing skills and outcome. Thanks for dedicating the cycle to this old limited edition.

The shorter, colorful and earlier flowering one was more Nepal Jam dominant. The other 5 taller, longer flowering, and higher yielding ones are more sativa dominant (Zamal/Jamaican), like the main expression described in the strain description: "As the last reflowerings mature, the stunning flowers take on the shape of a 1950s-style microphone"

Thanks for revisiting Zamal Bliss @orangina really beautiful flowers too!
Hope you enjoy with her as much as you did with the first one!

Thanks for the kind words dubi

Chopped this one at 75 days of 11/13. Bigger than the first one and more buds for sure. Still, a nep/jam dominant stature (compact). I have one more very similar plant coming down in a couple of days. Then the 3 zamal doms will come down 2 days apart each. This hybrid has been a pleasure to grow. The plants were very cooperative and easy to grow. They're also very easy to manicure.

Really nice @Smiley this one is a very balanced individual between Zamal and Nepal Jam: short and colorful like Nepal Jam parent plant, but bigger sized sativa buds than previous one, which was similar, but leaning more to Nepal Jam. Curious to know if the raw terps during flowering evolved in some females into something more refined.

I never really smelled the plants individually dubi. That last one at harvest filled the room with a pungent, sickly sweet smell more so than the first and this following one. Refined would be a very appropriate term.

This one had a similar stature to the last one except a larger yield yet again and bigger denser buds. Not as much smell to her but just as sticky and resinous.
Day 77 of 11/13

Hi @Smiley She indeed has the shape of the previous one, but no so colorful, remarkable outcome on all your plants!
