Top_Banana Topped around week 8 or 9.
I am amazed by its sheer size even after topping it is still around 3.2metres tall and growing. Most likely would of been easily 4m+
This has been growing now for 20weeks. When the seed was planted days were getting longer but still under 13hrs of daylight. Days are now getting short but still 12.5hrs daylight.. I thought landraces grow on age and not necessarily photo periodic in natural environment?
I thought to know that only the true equatorial sativa landraces flower on age. So it might be that a true thai sativa still depens a bit on hours of light anyways. I believe an ontouched 100% "Atjeh" could be like age depending. Being there on the equator. Or maybe south american brasilian strains aswell but im not really updated on those;)
Top_Banana Lots of rain has been keeping the spider mites and Japanese beetles at bay but she has stretched again. It is more like a tree now and the same height as my 3 yr old jackfruit tree π€£π²π
Stretching and growth of new branches on branches is insane lots of lateral growth with lots of new smaller leaves all around nodes and stems..

Top_Banana Intense tropical rain all week so no chance of watering any feed in. Instead I used granular 15-15-15 and she perked right up π..
Seen predatory mites (black round bugs) on the plant now and it also appears I have less spidermites which is awesome. I have been brushing them off every morning/evening for months now so nice to finally get some help!

Top_Banana Lots and lots of rain... and she's still growing! π²π²π²π²
Should I wet or dry trim flower in hot weather when drying outside?
Unfortunately I have no choice but to dry my flower in an outside open sided shed. With average temperature 30c/15c, humidity around 65%. Location has natural wind coming through.
Top_Banana A really big bushy tree that makes me smile every time I look at her..
Noticed caterpillars are wrapping themselves in sugar leaves of bud sites and eating through the centre, seen and removed 3 of them so far..luckily I have some Bacillus Thuringiensis on hand to spray them so hopefully that will do its job and kill the buggers.
Can't believe its still growing. Its outgrown my 3 yr old jackfruit tree now.
Now I have a huge praying Mantis on my plant.. hopefully she will cleanup my bug problem.

Top_Banana Disaster week!
Wind blown her over in the night. Staked her back the best I could but I think the roots are damaged, she has begun yellowing and has burnt like leaf tips.. Gonna leave her alone and hope she can recover.. not all is lost, I still have another sativa that is doing OK π
