5LT_Pot I’ve been following the solo cup challenge where growers achieve surprisingly good results in very small containers. Inspired by this approach, I’d like to experiment with a similar concept, but using slightly larger 5-liter containers and a landrace strain, which is Mekhong from Ace Seeds.
For this project, my goal is to grow a landrace strain from seed, observe its behavior in a restricted root environment, and carry out a small-scale breeding effort. I currently have five seeds, all of which I’ve recently planted. While producing seeds is the main objective, obtaining some yield along the way would be an added bonus (5L bottle: ~5–25g per plant).
My lightning schedule strategy is 7–14 days under 18/6 and then switch to 12/12.
Wish me luck! Love y'all and peace !

5LT_Pot This week I’m running a 12/12 light schedule. I decided to make paper tubes with double-sided adhesive tape on one side to prevent light from reaching the roots.
On day 14, I did topping. While working, I noticed that one of the plants might have leaf septoria or possibly a calcium deficiency.
What do you think? Let me know in the comments.
Thanks, and happy growing everyone!

5LT_Pot There are only 3 females left — another plant turned out to be male, so I removed it.
I forgot to water them for about 2 days, and they suffered a bit from drought stress.
I decided to plant two Heirloom tomatoes instead of the two male plants :)
On the other hand, pollinating with pollen collected from the first male will also produce seeds.
I had to do quite a bit of HST and super cropping because the plants were getting too close to the lights.
I've removed a lot of yellow leaves. I've checked everything; pH, PPM, nitrogen levels, and Cal-Mag ... but they're still dropping :((

5LT_Pot It's going nice and slow. I think we still have about 7 weeks or more until harvest for the two plants. One of them is still in early flowering... I don't know how long it'll take. 😁
There's still no any sign of thricomes... On on bud I saw very very few
I have a major issue: several branches are getting too close to the light. The light is already at the highest position. Do you guys have any suggestions? I think I might have to do some more super cropping.

5LT_Pot Anyone can guess how many weeks they have left ? The plant on the right side might be a different strain IDK. It grows slower than the two other.

5LT_Pot Trichomes are clearly visible.
It’s going alright, but it’s not pretty, I admit. The yellow leaves are annoying…
No matter what, we’ll keep going 😤

5LT_Pot One of them turned out to be Thai Mekhong... the others were Lebanese. It will take about two weeks for the Lebanese ones and a month and a half for the Mekhong, I guess.
I had seeds at the time, but I think they were a Mekhong × Lebanese landrace cross. :)

5LT_Pot This week I did not feed them.
I ran flush yesterday.
I am waiting like a stone now.
I am about to harvest Lebanese girls but I am not sure that I can keep mekhong... It still needs a month I assume.

Die Ladys sind ganz schön schwer zu bändigen. Für mich als Außenstehender ist es spannend auch mal so eine special Sorte zu verfolgen, aber so eine Sorte selbst anbauen ist schon ein kleines bisschen Folter 😅 Ich bin auf dein Endergebnis gespannt. Ich schätze es wird noch einige Wochen dauern 😬

@Tower84, Yes, it’s really difficult, but one thing I miss (and I haven’t smoked for years) is a 100% sativa landrace :)
