Upstate my leaves look something like that and it was a calcium deficiency/ph issue when they rain came for three days
I was using well water and the rain was way different ph! I sprayeds with some calcium foliar spray and put calcium in my water for a watering

I don’t even remember how I found all these people on Instagram anymore. They all run in the same circles, so once you find one, youcanfind them all. Is that Manipur Burma the one with the bluish purple streaked calyxes? That one’s been on my list since it came out. Dried berries. Sounds delicious! When I had money I couldn’t make an order, now that I can order, I have no money LOL. Such is life. That North Indian red stem is a really interesting looking plant as well. Should be all sorts of Hardy traits to grab from it for a breeding program. The two you got from the landrace team are also on my list. Especially that Vietnamese. Sounds like a good one. What 6 do you have from The Reel seat company? The Tashkurgan don’t look that remarkable at the moment. I can’t say anything really stands out about them yet, although from reading the description, I know that these are going to be excellent. I’m hoping to find something mold resistant. I read that region of Afghanistan has a short wet stretch, and that this one may have a little mold resistance. Angus from the real Seed company says this is not the case tho. One of the other seed companies is selling kholm, as you probably know. I think the description about the short monsoon season was written by these guys. Regardless I am looking forward to it, but this year is mainly for seeds. I wanted to get my landrace stock built up a little bit for some Trading. The poor things have just been transplanted into 1 gallon pots. I do have a spot to put them in the ground. We’ll see. I held off because the one site says they can get 18 ft tall. I said holy s*** , I’d better restrict these beasts! A couple have those wider leaves, and maybe the shortened pheno. I will definitely appreciate one of those if I get one, but I am more interested in the sativa side of this one. Can go 12 weeks flowering. I’ll have to see if it is as tough as they say, because my season won’t allow for that flowering time frost-free. It will be tested.

I’ll have to try some extra calcium then. Now that you say that, I might have read that South Africa has an incredible amount of calcium in the soil. Thank you

Im no expert but i watch you tube
I mixed my 1\2 cup lime with pint vinegar and it boiled a while after an hour mixed thst with water to make about a gallon and sprayed the leaves
Oklahoma has had torrential rains and its fucking with my tomatoes too. They get blossom rot from lack of calcium

I find all the island (volcanic soil) strains will tend to lean and go yellow, you would think nitrogen but I found a little cal-mag greened them right back up, and they still shed the bottom yelllw leafs as they grow.

I think you guys are onto something here. I’ve been using plain rainwater, with the addition of 15 drops Gringo Rasta Cal Mag per gallon. Every watering. The leaves are lightening up a little bit too now on the Kullu. Microlife have a large appetite for both nitrogen and calcium. I noticed this condition arise after I gave the plants a tea high in nitrogen… this year due to covid-19 I couldn’t find powdered dolomite believe it or not. Only pelletized. I substituted an equal amount of pelletized for the powdered I was lacking. Perhaps it’s not available quick enough to meet the demand of the enhanced microlife numbers in the soil at the moment. The question is, how much Cal Mag do I give them, and can I use pelletized Dolomite to make this spray? I might have some blossom end rot spray somewhere, but it does not say organic. I think bonide makes it.

Nice line up! Plans on growing any of these anytime soon? We have extremely similar taste. I have the same ones, lacking only Kerala, Tirah, and Sinai, and all three are on my to do list lol. Have you seen pictures of blue Kerala? A blue pheno from rsc. I saw pictures of it I think on Instagram. Absolutely beautiful. I had held up on buying Kerala, because Angus always seems to have it in stock, or gets it back quickly, which with landrace’s isn’t always the case.

The old guy on youtube says you could use several kinds of calcium, lime was the cheapest. I would think the pelletized would break down in vinegar just the same?
I think you can use chamomile tea as a foliar spray or even milk with a surfacant
I got the kerala few months back, and hope\think its the blue. Havent run it yet!
Angus said there will be no kerala from that source this year

I always roll pinner joint for taste test. Then leave room for a few and walk back in to get the aroma. Yes it can taste like Chocolate and coffee, earthy and even a bit floral. Like the breeder says your looking at 6-8 week cure for best taste smoke and flavor. Chocolate is the antithetical expression of the diesel terp so in my GG4 I always took the diesel smelling ones a bit long into the amber and they had a great molcha taste with a blackberry back end.

Lol. I know that. I meant which breeder / which Thai? I know you are about to run three of them. Which one are you most familiar with?

Earlier in post Heritage farms posted a Conversation from Darwoh who is the breeder that holds the original genetics that Hazeman used for breeding 10-16 week Phenos up to 15’ out doors.

So what you’re saying is diesel will fade into a chocolate flavor, and am I to assume the opposite is true as well? Chocolate will fade into diesel? This is really neat. I know nothing about it.

Just something I read, the GG4 midway in smells like cat piss. Then it fades to a chem/ diesel closer to chop. I grew LSD for a long while But never took it long because the gas was what sold. Heard that and I would leave my most Fidel plants to go past clear a bit to the amber side around 74 days for a listed 64. You could taste the choc Thai a little bit at first but as cure hit around 2-3 weeks it would go straight up molcha latte, and berry

Is there a terpene chart that shows “terpene fade” or that shows which terpenes are opposites? I’ve had smells change on me throughout the growth cycle of plants of course. But I had no idea it could become predictable to an extent.

Ahh, yeah I had seen the screenshot from DrawOH that heritage posted. I know the hazeman pack is from his work, are the other two packs of Chocolate Thai his work too?

I’m considering growing the Iranian or the Sinai this fall , I really want to grow out the eastern manipur Burma but am still waiting for those to arrive, and yes it was the blue looking strain from the Indian Land race exchange.
