Matey did you see big Mike’s journal with them. He cut them down at 22 weeks of flowering and they weren’t close to being done

that’s why i have to start them inside. even then it will be close. i may have to run them inside in a tent.
I’ve got 10 seedlings of them in a small greenhouse out in the rainforest here in Australia. I was going to use the pollen off them over a couple of my indicas. I’m pretty sure the females will revert around the start of the Aussie season. Just growing them to see if they can be grown in the Aussie climate. Also going to pop a couple of zamadelica and make female seeds with them . Really looking forward to seeing that strain grow

When I was 18 let’s say about 30 years ago. I would grow seeds out of the pot I bought. Most of it was basically pure sativa. Plants would get over 15 foot tall . With ease. But I loved the indica high so I stopped growing the sativas. I now regret it because those sativas were the best yielding plants I ever grew…also the indicas back then never got over 5 foot tall. Super squat plants that looked like really fat Xmas trees.

Any easy way to train them? Wanted to start 3 in a 5x5 but with the limited height of a tent I’m thinking I’m screwed ?

Top them, tie them down, and flip them early is what everyone seems to say, but there’s also a degree of spray and pray

I grew 3 14 weeker 5x stretchers in a 2x4x6.
It took insane amounts of training, topping, tying down, tying branches to other branches, and ultimately cutting off what would have been some lovely giant buds because I couldn’t keep them out of the lights. Acceptable losses.
But I vegged for a long time and there are other ways.
But it can be done.

How long did you veg?

I think it was 6 weeks but it was trained to a foot tall at flip.
Clones are an option.
12/12 from seed is another.

ATM I have a pure chocolope x gelato 41 female
Chocolope is a 95% sat / 5 indi @16 weeks
Gelato 41 is 45% sat/ 55 indi @ 9- 10 weeks
The F1 I’m running now seems to have a indi dominance if you keep the proper PPFD /DLI. Seems very happy in the 530- 580 / 41-43 range
She’ll turn purple/blue just like the chocolope. And is already exhibiting a high anthocayanin 31 days from germ.
Time will tell tho on how her flowers form but my main goal was to cut down on her flower times and not have to deviate from the 12/12 just to get her to flower or even finish, and to bring back the chocolope expressions and terps. So far so good. Stem rub smells like citrusy melons, gas funk and coffee. Really hoping the chocolate comes in the flower end of things. But for all the indi traits she has, she has an equal sat to her as well.
I know it’s not a pure sativa, but if anyone wants some S1 beans, I’ll be doing a reversal on some clones. Both female parents used were top notch terpy, dense flowers, big donkey dick colas and loaded with resin. I got plans on building a diary, mainly just to keep a record of her but like everything in life, proofs in the puddin.

@Upstate has an excellent thread on this subject for your sativa-tenting needs

You can always make clones and flower them as soon as they have established roots.

Never cloned anything. I’ll prob just veg 4 weeks and then flip and see how that works.

If you’re talkin’ Sheelavathi . Veg 2 wks & flip to 11/13 . Read Upstates thread & then read it again . Pot size , bondage & cut to fit are your management tools . Pop 8 - 10 , cull runts , freaks & herms . You’ll only be able to take 1 or 2 full term in a 5 x 5 . Wild equatorials are best outside in the ground if possible , if not in appropriate container . Greenhouse / hoophouse might be needed if north of 30 degrees .
