Translation as below

Mr. Natural Seeds is a delicious Sativa with an Afghan touch that stands out at first sight for its vigor, with long branches full of dark ball-shaped flowers and covered in resin that makes them shine like pearls …

Yeah, i read the same thing. I dont think my back can handle the larger containers. Not sure I’ve seen very many small container grows of tropical sativas that looked happy…except yours if that cross you showed was in a 3 gallon container. What was yr mix? I can handle 5 gallon containers, but no bigger unless its a special plant that really needs more room. Then I’ll allow my back to suffer lol.

Secret will be watering in wet to dry cycles to slough off the root ends, will keep them from getting root bound late, also you can move pots in dry cycle when they get bigger. I’m growing my Sativas in 3 gallons.
Finished an 80 day Purple Thai no problem at around 5’ tall no root shaving no lock out.

Last summer I really had to time my watering so the grow bags would be light enough for me to lift at night and the morning. They were watered in the A.M. after I brought them out, pretty light by “lights” out, and very light ( relatively) by the morning. And I got a gorilla cart to help me this yr, because my back can’t handle what I did last year again. One potential problem I may have is container size being too small to stay properly hydrated on hot days. I won’t be home during the day to water if they need it. I never attempted growing plants that get so big so quick in small containers. Just indicas , Lebanese , and some midget variety I have. Today is day 2 of flowering for Malawi, Kullu and Cabeca de Negro. They are still in cups. Is that ok? Should I go to 1/2 gallon?They look happy. Part of me is tempted to help them get some size to them… but I could pay for that later. How many 16 week plants can be grown under a 1000 watt light? 12? Less?

I don’t move out of solos until I am ready to put in 12/12, inside, I would start inside while adjusting veg room to natural light cycle so they don’t shock with light change. I didn’t on my Panama and am wondering if it will herm, it seems to not have effected it from going 24/0 too 15/9, mainly watching that it doesn’t start to flower early. (6 inch clone)

The plants are on their 3rd set of leaves. They have been strictly Outdoors so far, bringing them in at night. Just switched to 12/12. Leave in cups? I guess when I do make the switch to indoors, assuming I have to( I will have to)they will get a double dark cycle . You think that could make them hermie? Boy, I hope not.

Not effecting my Panama as I can see. I think if you get close it would be fine.

Have you tried felt pots? The roots self prune themselves and the pots can alleviate the roots overheating. I had my sativa in a hard pot but I would set it inside a 7 gallon pot to shield the sun. Never did put it in the 7 gal with dirt. It didn’t seem to be bothered by the small pot so I let it go.

Love me some Kona I have some beans from the 70s era Kona I plan on repopulating next spring. They came from a old timer in NorCal before he passed away.

Most of Africans will be trade bait. Probably won’t get to anything over 80 days until the winter when I have more time to care for them. Hawaiians will be overgrown as the supplier has just done preservation runs on both.

I grabbed some of those Transeki too. I have Lesotho from a different source if you want to swap some.

We could do that. You have any extra Mexicans for the x-mas grow?
