*Update*
First seed germinated 6/7/23
It looks healthy.
The second seed is still not came up from the rapid rooter yet.
Theres a third seed i put in paper towel and it popped a nice tap root in 2 days and i put it in a rapid rooter today.
One seed has a tap root coming out the other still hasnt popped. I put it and another seed into wet paoer towel between two plates.
I have no idea how old they are. They are regular seeds so I was planning on growing two females of this variety. If one is male then ill yank it and pop an auto in that I havent grown like Bloody Skunk or OG Kush.
If both are males then ill replant 2 more and try again. This grow will be challenging as Ill need to top and prune this strain due to its vigorous growth and its height can be over 6ft and I only got max 55 in. In my grow tent. This strain is 100% Sativa. I may also use my Gixxer LED on Veg setting to provide more blue spectrum to try to control the vertical growth. Ill be using extreme LST and topping methods. Supercropping Ive never done but ill use it on these if they get out of hand.
The flower stretch is estimated to be 7 weeks long and it stretches insanely fast according to what info I found online.
Also there is limited information on growing this strain. It likes poor and tolerates rich soil. Has greasy stems, there are a bunch of different phenos. Most smell tropical fruity with some phenos being woody and spicy.
It grows very fast over 6ft tall and has lots of lateral branching. Most buds are airy giving it high resistance to mold but a couple phenos can get nice fat colas.
Flowering length is 14 to 17 weeks.
Cooking a variant of my homemade organic soil.

*Update 6/13/23
2nd seedling has some yellowing going on
I think its too much water or the light too strong. I lowered the lights to 325 PAR after adjusting to the transplant height difference.
Both were transplanted in 5 gal pots in my homemade soil today
Out of 3 seeds only 2 Germinated and are healthy. Hopefully they are both female.
Plan B to replace any males is in place.
I got the light dimmer and distance perfect
24" at 50% dimmer
PAR is about 400
Added humidifier to keep it around 70% for now.
I have an Inkbird humidity controller coming in the mail.
I put 1/4 tsp of Myco+ root innoculant in 1 gal of pH 6.7 water.
I am using this during seedling and veg stage to boost root growth.
*Update
The second plant is not liking the 78-80F temps. I have readjusted the fans including the canopy fan to move the heat from the lights towards the exhaust fan. Also placed a fan to push cold AC air into the grow room. I have also lowered the lighting back to 50% dimmer at 24 in.
The first plant is not skipping a beat
1st Seedling is 4" tall. The second one is 2 1/2" tall.
The shorter one is either dealing with overwatering, temperarure. Or Humidiy
*Update 6/25/23
Topped Plant #1 above the 5th node.
Watered on Wednesday with Myco+
Plant #1 is starting to grow faster at 9" tall
Plant #2 is 1 week younger and is 5" tall. This plant seems to be growing slower and a few leaves are cupping. Too much light or heat. Temps are at 79F so i turned the dimmer from 75% down to 50%.
They are both growing fast and bushing out. They look really good.
Plant 1 is showing unknown structure coming from the node. It was yellowish but is now green. Its possibly just a new branch. Will be keeping an eye on it.
Update 7/12/23
Plant 1 is confirned female. Multiple female preflowers with 2 white pistils showing.
She also emitted a fruity smell when I watered her today
Put a SCROG net around the tomato cage of Plant 1 to control her height better
Topped Plant 2 at the 7th node to force it to grow evenly.
Plant #1 is growing nice. Keeping her tied down at 18" till flower
Plant #2 Slow grower still. Possible its a male but too early to determine yet. Flattened it with a tomato cage to keep it short.
Update 7/21/23
Light schedule was changed to 12/12 on Monday.
I removed leaves and a few small branches at the bottom to increase airflow. I removed a few upper leaves too.
This girl is going gangbusters.
SCroG net is in the grow tent 6 inches above the tomato cages. Prepared for long term weaving with 2 Filipino sativas and a Bruce Banner that is growing amazingly
Plant #2 is going through a grow spurt phase and is darkening up her leaves which is causing some leaves to be part light green and darker green. I still can't determine its sex yet as the preflowers are not fully developed yet.
Update 7/25/23
Plant #2 preflowers are confirmed male.
This plant has been yanked and terminated.
Plant #1 is female with pistils showing up all over so she will have more room in the tent now.
Plant 1 is stretching. Will be tying her down a bit in a few days.
Plant 2 is picking up speed on stretching. Still can't ID gender yet. Preflowers are forming though.
She's stretching fast now. An inch a day during 2nd week of flip.
I tied her down to the top of the tomato cage. I'm going to set the scrog net about 10 to 12 in from the top of the tomato cages for LST later in a couple weeks
I'm going to have to Ziptie the light to the ceiling of the tent this grow too.
I lollipped the bottom and removed a few mid leaves in the shade.
I'm starting to feed them 10ml of Alaskan Morbloom every 7 days.
She's recovered from the last LST and is 40 inches tall now. SCroG is coming into play in a week or two as she's busted out lots of lateral branches and bushes up.
She's filling in the middle and outside gaps between the other plants.
Lots of preflowers still. She hasn't started to go into bud mode yet. I changed the light schedule to 11/13 in the tent to match the day/night cycle in Baguio, Philippines. It's supposed to help trigger her to start bud mode sooner.
So far she's very vigorous and no deficiencies. She's handling a medium feed schedule well.
I gave her 800ppm of the Fish Hydrolysate buffered with Potassium Bicarbonate to get the pH to around 6.5.
Watering is every 3 days and feeding every other watering.
Environment is staying consistent.
She recovered from 2 LSTs using the ScroG net. I'll let her grow a few more inches then tuck the branches again.
Eventually I'll have to use pipe cleaners to tie her to the ScroG net. I still have about 10 to 12 inches of ceiling left. I can get about 5 to 7 more inches if I remove the pot spacer and zip tie the LED to the tent ceiling poles.
She's still stretching about 4 inches a week. Hopefully she stops in 2 weeks. That'd put her around 57". I'm going to monitor this week.
I'm feeding her around 700ppm. S
I noticed a bunch of brown leaf tips that were curled up just a tiny bit. So I'm going to back off the nutes a bit more for now.
It looks like she's starting to spit out more calyxs inside the new bud growth areas. Hopefully she starts making buds in a week or two.
If not, then I'll put the scrog net back in and LST her to knock a few inches off.
Update 9/5/23
Rearranged the branches and tied the tops down again. More light penetration and airflow for better buds.
Still tucking the tops. She's growing buds all over now. She still has probably 8 to 10 weeks left in flower. Looking like a 17 week flowering pheno
Built a new ScroG net that's less flexible cause she was pushing up on the other one quite a bit. It was a bit of a pain but it's working better holding the branches down.
Some branches I supercropped
She recovered already and now other bud site branches are stretching. She's going have lots of mini colas probably.
Fed her 15ml of Fish emulsion today because I'm seeing around 10 leaves turning yellow from N deficiency. She still stretching unfortunately.
She smells of tropical fruit. Kinda reminds me of the smell of Juicy Fruit gum.
Haha she is still stretching. Although at a slower pace. Interesting thar the tops under the light are not stretching as much as the tops that are to the side getting less light.
Buds forming all over. Also getting several fan leaves turning yellow.
Watered in 1 tsp of Maxibloom and 2ml of Calmag.
This baby loves the LED light. Canopy growth is uneven as the colas are higher in lower par areas around the LED main coverage. Whilst under the LED light growth is not as high. I may have to tie tops down to the ScroG.
I'm also monitoring to determine if stretch is coming to an end. Continuing tosee faded fan leaves ahaded by the new canopy growth.
Lots of bud sites everywhere but she hast started focusing on the buds yet.
She still has about 10 weeks to go unless she finishes fast.
Update 10/6
Now that the other strains were harvested yesterday, I was able to cut out the plastic ScroG fencing and center her under the grow light.
This weekend I'll be cutting out the plastic fencing and spreading out her branches for maximum light penetration till harvest time.
I think she's got 8+ weeks left.
I had to supercrop all the tops as she got within 10cm of the LED light.
It does seem as she is done stretching finally. 6 days after supercropping she still straightened her tops very well and I had to bend them over again.
Very vigorous plant. She needs watering every 2 days. Might need to do it every 24 to 36 hrs.
Hopefully these buds start to fill in. Have no ideas which of the 8 phenos of this landrace it is. Hopefully not the wheat like pheno. But there's bud sites everywhere on her.
I reduced daytime to 10.5 hrs to get her to wanna making buds. Also still pulling off lots of yellowing leaves under the heavy canopy that formed from supercropping.
Week 12 of flower
I removed the lower ScroG netting. I separated the branches and spread her out. I replaced the stretchy ScroG net and redid the Scrogging. Now there more light distribution and airflow below the canopy.
Also put a Vivosun wave fan in the grow tent. Now there's oscillating air and uses a wave function to simulate real wind
She's still looking real nice. A nice big bush.
Stretching is definitely over. The buds are starting to slowly get bigger each day.
I tried to even out tye canopy best I could after she recovered from spreading her out last week.
I ziptied the light to the ceiling of the grow tent and gained 4 inches of distance from the canopy. Also adjusted the light to 1000 PAR and DLI is 45 in the center.
This woman is crazy. It's like she's still stretching those colas. Definitely the buds are growing now but she's popping colas everywhere. So many bud sites can't even count them. She's chugging along really well for 21 weeks so far.
Cue Guns N Roses Welcome to the Jungle. Grab your machete and enjoy cutting your way through this fruity Filipino jungle lol.
She's smelling very nice right now. About 5 to 8 dead leaves a day under the canopy. Flowers are beautiful right now.
Juiced her up yesterday on fish fertilizers. 1000ppm 2 gals at 6.45pH
Getting leaf loss under the canopy daily. Some yellow falling off others stuck under the branches and scrog net are getting crispy brown. I have to lift it up carefully and pull it out or from underneath the canopy.
She definitely smells stronger. Definitely smell the peach in her. It's really fruity. Pistils still 95% white. Tops seem to be still growing upwards.
Flowering is picking up. Lower leaves being sucked dry. Have to water 1.5 gallons every 2 days. Smell is becoming more fruity spices now. She's getting sticky.
PITA picking all the sucked dry leaves out in between the branches and Scrog net.
Hope she finishes fast now
Flowering in full effect. More yellowing leaves. She's still thirsty and drinking 1.5 gal every 2 days.
Still smells like spicy peaches. Trichromes are showing on calyxs. She even made the bamboo supports all sticky with resin. Don't know how but she must be secreting resin from her stems too.
Shes filling in more. More leaf loss this week. Buds are airy calyxs that are growing in tree shape. Smells peachy and spices.
Got some close up shots to check trichromes. They are present and some pistils are turning orange brown.
Juiced her up yesterday and within 24hrs I've noticed a bit more poof to her. She's definitely speeding up now.
Its getting really cold outside now so the Temps indoors are down a few degrees. That's ok that should help signal to her to finish flowering and ripen for harvest.
Still getting yellowing and dead leaves daily. Can't wait to hang this kraken of a plant.
She's getting alot more yellowing and more resin. Although still alot of pistils are still white. So I'm not sure if it's senescence starting to creep up or a Nitrogen issue. I juiced her again today.
Still the flowers are nice and the resin smells more like cocoa and peanutty like peanut butter. Reminded me of the chocolate factory I used to work in.
Yep. She is still healthy and still flowering 😂😂.
Ok so my Mars Hydro TS3000 dimmer switch is broken was only putting out 50% brightness. So I took it out to check it. Forgot there was a bypass switch. Now it's full brightness but I can't put it back in cause it's too close to the canopy.
So I put it in my new 4x4 tent with my newer plants and put the 2 Giixer LEDs in the Filipino Kibungan tent. It should be ok. It may help her flower better because it's heavy on the red spectrum. So time will tell. Next week I'm planning on buying a new Grow light to replace the Giixers.
She's still sticky and smells real nice. Smell is definitely more complex than it was 6 weeks ago.
Week 30 and she's still kicking lol.
Getting some lavender hues showing. The flowers seem to remain foxtailed calyxs or alternating calyxs on the stem. Interesting phenotype.
Sticky with a nice complex smell. She's still drinking water every 2 to 3 days.
Looks like chop time is tonight or tomorrow.
Confirmation of milky trichromes, sticky, smells and alot more yellowing of single bladed leaves.
She's flowered now for 18 weeks after 12 weeks of Veg.
This strain has been fun to grow. No herming and she handled nutes up to 1000ppm easily.
She was heavy when I picked her up. Had to use a digital scale while standing on it to get an estimate weight.
Smells of peaches and tropical fruit. She was 77 inches long almost 2 meters.
I was glad to test myself growing a pure Sativa landrace indoors and to show others it's possible if you have the patience 😆
Also I had no problems with harming. The strain is sexually stable.
Thanks to Khalifa Genetics for preserving this rare cultivar.
@Khalifa_Genetics, thank you. This strain is satisfying my challenge I wanted after many grows. Her smell is definitely unique and fruity. The calyxs also are unique compared to others I've grown. She's growing trichs now so I'm excited for the swell. A+
@@justsomedude420, thanks bro. Yeah she's a crazy wild one. I'm still trying to reduce the amount of yellowing leaves. Not as bad as before I spread her out. I'm sure she's root bound. She took 11/2 gals of water yesterday. I'm thinking of upping the the amount of fish emulsion and PK Morbloom since she's so big. Maybe she can handle more than 700ppm. But she does have some burnt tips. Just trying to be careful with the ferts
