Day 1 (10/12/2021): I planted all germinated seeds in their 1L pot, very little watering with Elycitor (0,3mg/L) and Roots + ( 0,3 ml/L). Ace seeds will share the 4x4 tent and the SE 5000 with the other stains as long as it's possible. Then I'll move the Colombian Jack/Original sour diesel to the 1x1x2m tent with the SF 4000.
To let air be extracted outside, I have to leave a vasistas opened => The tents's room is very cold . Those eco heat metal bars are the best and less expensive way that I found to heat correctly the tent.
The SE 5000 is set at 30%, distance from canopy( canopy ?? Where ???) : 61 cm
Day 3: 2 malawi and 1 golden tiger started to grow , the 2nd GT is almost out.
Dat 7: Ist week ending. Not much to say :)
@@@Weedelfe, Well, I've not personally grown Panama x Malawi yet...I think it would be 1rightangle. I had the cross from their RD section Bubba Kush Katsu x Old Malawi Killer.
All Malawi were different but similar. All of them had in common a very intense effect on every hit (well, it comes to a point, if you roll a few grams joint....), with dizziness and visual effects. Not the common Sativa type high. I have grown many strains over years but the resin production on this strain is exceptional. Therpene profile vary from different phenotypes.
The one I Love the most😍 is the one crossed with Bubba Kush, from their RD section. But the strongest is the one grown with the Killer A5.
It is very stable in the way it won't hermie out and effects are consistent with some similar look, texture, background smell-taste. Awesome IBL breeding job from ACE preserving diversity and minimising hermaphrodite common survival traits from landraces.
What I've learned growing it? Don't be intimidated! stretch is about 3.5 but stop stretching before bulk. Medium feeding but might be Calcium hungry at bulk stage.
@Sorsdetacachette,Thank you Sorsdetacachette !
I'm very happy with the result. The downside is that I won't grow before a few months...What was the initial goal . :)
I have a look at your gorilla cookies daily and it looks like you won't be disappointed with the crop... ! 👌
Keep on the good work ! Cheers my friend.
You are at the right place: it all depends on how growers count days. As an example to me day 1 is when all seeds have broken soil, and a week is added to my diary once all days are passed. Like day 7 would be 1st week, day 14 week 2, so week 3 would be day 21.
(... I am the one who's struggling in veg. as my tents are in the same room, and for flowering purpose I have very low Rh and low night temps...)
All route leads to Rome.
Merry Christmas!
@sativaman,Thank you, Merry Christmas to you too !
I count day 1 as soon as I put a germinated seed in soil. Only a convention. But... i always count this way in order to compare from diary to diary.
Usually, on day 15, 4th node is almost fully grown, 5th growing 6 th starting to show up and secondaries are a bit more developed.
What changed ( strains apart) is T° ( using more eco bars but not anymore the tent's room electric heater as I used to do during winter) => Soil is warmer than usually
and the light.
I would say that the plants seem to like the light (SE 5000) but... Not quite as much than with the SF 4000 from what I remember and see from 3 last diaries.
I think that I have been a little too cautious when It's only 30 W more and that light is sprayed a different way with much less hot spot in the center.
@sativaman,Thank you ! I visited your diaries several times for the last months trying to get as much infos as I can about Malawi !
I chose 2 different malawi seeds by the size hopping for 2 different phenos. Yes, usually you don't use CO2 during seedlings ( neither than...germination :) )but they last +/- 6 months once activated= longer than the previous grow. So I use them anyway right now. It shouldn't hurt the plants.
Quel beau travail tes plantes sont magnifiques 🤩
On sent plus le master que l’apprenti quand on voit tes plantations …
J’espère , grâce à tes conseils que je pourrais m’approcher de tes résultats ( on peut toujours rêver 💭🌱-🌿-🌴-🌳)
Bonne continuation , et bonne chance pour le reste des aventures
@Sorsdetacachette,Thank you for the compliments and good wishes. These Ace seeds are great and react very well to scrog...that I don't like vey much ! 😂
Grow some and you'll even do better than me: Hydro is the way to go !
And your Fast buds Gorilla cookies looks awesome for now ! Many would like to grow such a nice plant 😎
You have a green thumb so nothing to worry too much about growing ! Cheers and later 😊
Pero que cultivo Dios mío.
Mis felicitaciones a tan gran trabajo, esas variedades son solo para manos expertas y los resultados que estas opteniendo son envidiables
@Aero_Sativo, Hello and thank you for the compliment !...Although I'm far from being an expert 😂 ! Yes, the results should be good and imo the reasons are 1) excellent genetics, 2) Good environmental conditions ( very good soil, good light correctly used, RH and T° checked and adjusted daily if required, correct watering, pH adjustment 3) scrog technique !! 4) good nutrients 5) much care and love. Nothing really special if you are really interested in the subject, experiment a bit and learn from your experiences.
@PaulM,Thank you PaulM !
I visited your diary several times , very excited to see your scrog. I think that your plants didn't grow enough because the lamp is 10/15 cm too far from canopy.
Good grow to you 🙏 !
