Finishing a bit smaller than I had anticipated, auto Zamaldelica was a treat to grow. I feel her roots were impacted by a low pH event early in the process, but a flush n go allowed me to finish this grow.

Grow cycle was extended a bit because of the Power being dialed-down on the Main-Lite; DLI issues… Otherwise it was a treat to Grow. It also helped justify having One photo-period in the tent, alone…
Hanging-tent is running a very low temperature 62-65f and Humidity is targeting RH of 55%. Targeting a minimum of 14 days hanging. See where that goes
16th
- clipped a small bud - 2 grams for the quality assurance program
17th
- all is extremely good with Zero snap in the branch’s
- 62F is avg w/ RH steady 57%
18th
- emptied out her grow bag and indeed the roots were tiny and few. impacted during the grow… as they did not have a solid position throughout the substate. They also got trapped into a dangerous watering pattern with my fumbling through operating the HP ProMix bag. And having to drown it to achieve run-offs. On both the colombian and this auto Zam, big feeds and longer intervals left a lot of room for problems. Thats on me and forging-ahead before completing solving the issue at hand
22nd
- being a very small plant, I did not have to crack many branches to get an idea of where the Auto Zameldelica was in the ripening. And today I cut it into pieces, burning a bit right now as you read… day 14 of hanging

@LegacyMarketFarm, Thanks for that clarification. It makes complete sense on the “Less Material” removed angle… and a “quicker recovery” !
How civil
Thanks Andrew
@1Right_Angle,Topping is the removal of that whole top node under the crown. F.I.M is named as kind of a joke reference to that. like I went to top my plant but F*ck I missed. By removal of the crown growth we acomplish the same goal as topping with less plant matter being removed & allowing them to recover more quickly.
I might actually try this training next time I F.I.M the autos in the next series, Imagine doing a sea of green, F.I.M once early then spread the two new apex growth locations out like this it could be a really quick way to create big yielding plants.
@1Right_Angle, I think it is also a great joint effort of 2 people sharing information and improving upon it which is what this whole cannabis community should be like. We could learn so much more about this plant and how best to grow it together.
@CombatCat, Best Wishes on that project. And it truly sounds like a great pairing, with Durban P being a Highlight strain already. My mouth is watering on this one. Zamaldelica, A smell I have not ever experienced before. Within 3 weeks this one will be close to Ripeness. Thanks for stopping in.
Great job & great post crop review. This is how we continue to evolve our game every round, A true grower in every sense of the word. Class act my friend
@1Right_Angle, Just the beginning my friend. You got all the facets of someone who will continue to better his product each and every round. Your outdoor skills are just crazy and indoor are expanding each and every round with noticeable improvements every time. Legacy Market Farm East will always open for you to fill the position if you should ever decide.
Almost the end of December 2023 and I’m sticking the other Auto Zamaldelica in a Glass of water…
She will be working with a Tzar Bomba auto while a few Heirloom photo-periods finish-off a long run.
Only curious bit of hard-science is that the lite cycle sucks for them; 10.5hrs of light. Theres Lots of it, just not long periods of it
