Muay Thai fully reverted to vegging. Height is 90 cm tall. To mark this change, I am calling this week a vegetation week. Flowering week will count when pistils development direction is certain. Hopefully, there is more flower.
I have trimmed of older flowers. The harvest is of poor quality. So, I have used water curing and shall de-carb it and use this early small batch for infusing with alcohol. Canna mojito here I come!
Just today, the entire 25 liter basket with Muay Thai in the ground. This put her away from light leak. In the soil, I mixed in 6 kg of new earth worm casting. Also added 100 gram of pelletized sugar refinery sludge. Then I water with trichosan/earth worm casting microbe/ and compost solution.
The time that it is taking this grow, Muay Thai behaves like a quick flowering sativa than auto.
Environment is hot and balmy.
Humidity and VPD:
Hottest part of the day during the week;
34 degree C, Humidity 70%, VPD 1.6
Coolest part of the night during the week; 24 degree C, Humidity 80%, VPD 0.6
Earlier in the week,
I fed Muay Thai with compost tea and molasses.
Feeding Summary
Monday evening – None
Tuesday evening – None
Wednesday evening – None
Thursday – Compost tea ( 1.5 ml / liter compost tea + 1.5 ml/liter humic acid).
Friday evening. Fishy Yoghurt ( 1 liter yoghurt to 5 liter of water and 9 ml of fish bone tea)
Saturday morning – Transplanted then drench soil with 6 liter of solution. (9 ml trichosan, 9 ml earth worm casting microbe tea, 9 ml compost tea all added to 6 liter of water)
That looks pretty excellent for a 4 week old plant. Whatever you've been doing is incredibly effective, considering the plant type, space, etc. But, as usual, it probably also has something to do with those seeds being "familiar" to your conditions. But yeah, for your sort of naturalized thai/random local stuff, if you basically do what you did so far you'll likely get very good results in general with your local stuff.
@Med_in_Tropic,
Instead of yoghurt, you could try mixing some milk, water and adding some carbs (fruits/flour/starch/sugars) and let it ferment for a few days to make what is sort of like yoghurt.
I've done that with the mulberry stuff and it seems really good, though I can't say for sure.
@@Ssomeguy, thanks - still is a useful information. Sulfur additive is much cheaper than yogurt.
Yogurt goes for the last three weeks of flowering - crazy stinky strong buds.
@Med_in_Tropic,
Random info about possible leaching in areas like yours... "Sulfate sulfur is not readily held by soil particles, except for acid clays, so in most soils it can be leached below the root zone."
Not suggesting anything with that really, but if your plants go dull, lime green/yellowish with lots of rain/water that could be something to consider.
I'm mentioning this coz I've had the contradictory sort of experience with that here, so I checked it out. Our rain is very sulphur-rich and tends to kill fungus, for instance. But, in drought (as we've had the past 6 months) I have to water the plants more (with crappy tap water) causing more leaching/unnecessary additions so I potentially get sulphur issues from that. Your rain is likely not as sulphur rich, so it wouldn't surprise me if it's the opposite for you (better sulphur retention in dry season vs wet season).
*Edit: Thinking about it, it's actually pretty unlikely you'd have sulphur issues if you're using that yoghurt often, so it probably doesn't apply.
@Med_in_Tropic, Thankyou for that info mate I have Family who served for AUS in the Nam war they still travel to Vietnam and thailand every year as they both say they fell i n love with the place a little. Ive never been but would like to one day. Thai won't win any beauty contests but would smash the competiton in a straight up Best "High" type comp
@Grey_Wolf, Thanks mate.
Sgt. Lemon was in US Infantry during the Vietnam War. Somehow this story is stuck in my mind. Could be because this weed smells like lemon. Or could be because Thai boxing champions do smoke weed before getting in the ring. Any way, Thai weed isn’t exactly miss universe kind of weed.

Kudos to your persistence. 22 wks for an auto. Glad this is brain twisting weed you deserve it. Your plant like a lobster may not be pretty but the end product is amazing. Good job 👏🌱👍
An auto, 12 weeks old, on 11 hours light, still vegging out?!?! That is some weird shit med. Like i said before, your yard is a science experiment mate
