Thiols are interesting. They’re in a lot of places. Even coffee has them.

yup each and every location has its own experience, in effects, texture and flavors. I will not say khyber sativa hashish of Afridi tribe is Up lifting. As matter fact it’s one of the narcotic hash one can smoke. Basically, the harvest extension contributes to higher CBN concentration for sure.

will you keep them short or natural structure?

@LandraceWarden I topped them a week ago. Going to top them repeatedly I think. The plants are ready for their next transplant soon. Going into 3 gallon containers if i can find some. I have 2 gallon on hand. Flowering begins end of July. Look at Mr purple stalk. The first one to sex, likely from being started under 12 12 cycle
They are under natural cycle now, about 16 hours light.
One of the two stragglers, the one hit by a cutworm, is in the photo, just up potted. The Damp off seedling is still alive. The poor thing was dug up by a bird and was laying on the top of the dirt, tiny little rootball exposed. Luckily it was raining that day, so it lives. I’m hoping this little plant ends up being something special. It wants to live. Going to take a month before it’s growing well

Some of that stench is to attract pollinators in areas that have few bees, such as some areas in the mts or desert. The plants attract carrion eating flies In some cases, their only insect option( or the main one) to make babies.
I wouldn’t doubt soil conditions help that stench form. High calcium content over there …maybe high sulfur too. .

I’d wager that like many landraces from the Americas, Kalamata has genetics from south India and/or Southeast Asia. I’d also wager such genetics are in more NLD landraces than not.

You can be pretty certain one of the 2 is in there…

Ilaqai Nasal update. Plants are growing quickly now, and were just uppotted into one gallon pots. Roots were hanging out the pots. These are vigorous plants and they would get huge for sure, if you let them.

The tiny stem rot plant, Tiny Tim, is still going, pictured below. I’m not giving up on it. The roots have caught back up with the greens and it should begin growing again soon. Decapitated, then uprooted, and still kicking. Like me😁. 3 males and one lady have sexed so far…

Meant to post a root pic.
Great root system. These are quite different from anything I’ve grown. They look Indica, with fatter leaves, yet are clearly Sativa. Long, long domestication to get those fat leaves. I bet the plants grow a foot over the next 2 weeks. I am seriously containing them atm. Soon they will be unleashed. I do have height concerns, so will be topping alot.

It’s pretty cool that you name some of your plants. I had a big Jimson weed (Datura stramonium) I named “Elvira.”

yup I have not seen people doing multiple toppings on Tirah Illaqai to get more flowers in the canopy and find themselves with a big girl. it will be more effective to have multiple flowering sites rather than few bits of flowers on branches and a primary spear

I figured I’d do my topping again as soon as there is something further to top. The side branches are just appearing. I may even tie these horizontally after 1 month of force flowering during August, to help bush them out, depending on height.
@Herrsquidward naming special plants helps me remember them, and somehow makes my relationship with the plants closer… It’s fun, too😁

I don’t always name them, but I do make a mental note of the differences between individual plants.

@Herrsquidward Since I was a kid I’ve used clever naming to remember things.
State capitals for instance…I got a new hampster and he was fast, so I named him Concord
Concord is the capital of New Hamphire. 10th grade 35 years ago.
I knew a girl in high-school named Honey, and she was gleeful, but ditsy, and tried, but couldn’t pull up her panty hose…
Gleditsia Triacanthos ( glee, ditz, tried, can’t,hose) is the Latin name of the Honey Locust tree. I remember that from college 30 years ago😁
Works great!

I also use an obscure and esoteric system, sort of playing “Seven Degrees of Separation.” I usually name is something peripheral to whatever I’m reading at the the time, or what the plant reminds me of.

Wow! Pretty in Pink😆. Beautiful.
Update coming soon for Ilaqai Nasal. All the plants are growing. Even Tiny Tim has doubled in size
…to 1 1/2 inches, lol. Thought I might lose it, but all the rain and a transplant got it growing.
There will be more frequent updates towards mid/ end of summer, when I have room to let them grow bigger. Flowering starts July 21st.
