My Pearl Stem Oaxacan BX1 ladies are kicking ass! A couple of colas took off earlier this week. It was starting to look less like a bush and more like weed so I adjusted the canopy and they’re a bush again.

Those are looking killer, is that an A5 cross from Ace? Digging the look on them, especially the end two.

How many weeks is that from germination? I just popped some about 2 wks ago.

Months. Those are clones of parents I harvested in April, I think. You’re going to love this strain. But if you want it to earn its space in the tent, you will need a lot of colas. It’s classic doobie weed!

I have seen the pictures. And the fact that seed companies don’t want it for the long flower time makes it even more wanted by me. I think unless it gets too cold I’m going to let it run outside. I’m at 34 lat and other than some rain or wind not much else to contend with.

I was surprised that the flowering time is relatively short. They haven’t started flowering though and if they don’t within the next couple of weeks I’m going to start feeling nervous about harvest.

I have my wife to thank for that. But I’m letting branches grow outside as sacrificial lambs.

And these are Ace Thai x Panama, Pandora Seedbank Panama Cryptic Labs Hueso Cut x Old Timer’s Haze, and Pandora Seedbank Cannabiogen Panama x Old Timer’s Haze.

I also have some Panama 1971 courtesy of Upstate but those are too small to present here given that I popped them two months behind. All of these plants are grown on a balcony with limited light so this is as much as I can do for now. In august they will go under the LED though

My Santa Marta Colombian gold is very columnar as well. Besides topping it she only has 4 small lower branches otherwise just big colas

Does anyone else near the 35th parallel know when Oaxacan should start stretch?

It looks like it was cast out of plastic. Saddleback caterpillar - Wikipedia
Edit: Wikipedia says they feed on plants. Are they feeding on your cannabis?

I think you mean long and that just puts you a couple hundred miles south of me because I’m at 35 long. So we should be able to compare notes. 
Edit: Latitude, not longitude. My bad.
