If you look earlier in the thread it gives exact coordinates.
Here ya go:
Just like equatorial types like Dalat (11.9 lat) thatās going to put this sativa flowering more by chronological age than as a response to a photoperiod you might have around 20-30 latā¦
Itās out. Mandala stocks this and Kerala FWIW. Sheelawathi ā Mandala Seeds Shop

Sativas are known to have very long internodes. Paclo will take care of it. It is used in the nursery biz to not only decrease plant height (makes for easier shipping and better marketing) but it promotes flowering and fruiting. It also has fungicidal properties.
I looked for it and found it from several sources, none of them cheap.
A bit late for me to use on these plants as they have been in flower for awhile now and have stopped growing vertically.
The buds are very small as of yet but I am doing this for seed anyway and could care less about the bud.
Thatās true, Iāve just heard bad about paclo in vitro in particular. Research shows it can cause thyroid issues.
It definitely has horticultural use. I just donāt think that I would want to consume afterwards personally.
That tells me nothing @Butustank - what rate, frequency, etc. 200 PPM on poor lab rats twice a week? Your mental block is common, and understandable.
This is just one of the many tools and experiments Iāve used as a gardener of about 55 years.
Fair enough.
@Oldjoints, yes, itās very expensive. Itās not unusual for me to spend $250 for a 8 oz jug of a specialty chemical. Take a look at Forbid 4F if you think thatās expensive. I sent Cruz (dalat grower) from Santa Cruz some of these products. I sometimes get them free from distributors.
Yaāll should at least investigate Keyplex 350DP. Youāll struggle to get it unless you tell a rep youāre a commercial grower of sayā¦sugar cane in Florida. I was gifted 5 gals. If you have a micro deficiency, itās the thang. Lots of research papers on it. KeyPlex 350 DP - KeyPlex Plant Nutrition
Yes, itās way too late @Oldjoints. Iād be glad to mail you some later.
Iāve got 2 gallons of a copper fungicide called Magnabon CS2005. A VERY broad spectrum fungicide, spray or soil drench, that will even suppress blights. OMRI certified too if you roll that way. I also have Phyton 35 in my toolbox. https://www.forestrydistributing.com/phyton-35-bactericide-fungicide-phyton
Appreciate the offer bro. But I have little use for these products.
I will look into some of the products you are talking about.
Thanks for all the info and some new methods to research and stopping by the thread.
If you end up wanting some seed you know how to find meā¦ā¦ā¦.
Two weeks into 12/12 flower cycle. Aināt seen a pube yet. But rubbing the stem is stinky and a little sticki-ish.
You should see some action in the next week or soā¦ā¦ā¦
Then you can stop that lonely stem rubbing sticky finger thingā¦.
I now have around 650 seeds or so collected from the Sheelavathi plants. I removed the males as they were done producing pollen. That leaves us with 7 female plants full of seed. I have 150 people signed up and I want everyone to get 10 seeds of these rare Landrace seeds. I can guarantee this will not be a problem! I should also have plenty left over for Tracker and myself to distribute to the community as we see fit. How that will happen is yet to be determined.
You guys fuckin ROCK!
I am very happy so far with my Sheelavathi clone. Getting real big and pretty. 2weeks into flower. I just spotted the first flower pistil on her yesterday.
Hoping for some great Sativa from her, if I donāt fuck it up. Iām running a couple clones, just in case. 14-16 weeks is nearly twice what Iām used to growing tho. That will be a patience tester right there.
Yes that is why I donāt usually run 100% sativaās. Not only does it take patience but takes up valuable room that I could be using for shorter flowering times on my Indicaās.
To be honest I will be glad when I have collected all the seed and can clear that room for some new strains.
Glad I stocked up on ISS and Skywalker to smoke while Iām waiting. But I do have three grow tents going. The little one is going to be used to make some ISS female seeds to give away. Then I have a large veg tent and a large flower tent. They are all going full blast right now.
I been stalking this thread from the start I think Iām like 4th or 5th but anyways itās really not important but what is important is I think I forgot something that I shouldnāt have forgotten (sorry bro but I smoke ) so with that out of the way letās get to the business, Hey ! ā¦ @Tracker ! Thank You Bro ! This is fantastical stock and Iām truly grateful bro, thanks again
I now believe I have the 1500 seeds required to fulfill the seeds for 150 members. I still have thousands of seeds on these plants so still plenty to spread the love beyond the sign-up.
Nice beanage, brother.
