Zam #1 is the strongest smelling one among the Zamaldelica and Thai seedlings and Zam #2 has the thinnest sativa leaves. Great-looking Zamaldelicas, let's hope they are female.
Panama, which got transplanted outdoors on the 15th of April together with the Nepal Jam, a bit early but they were taking precious space in my grow box which is shared with 20 cups with tomato seedlings.
All 3 of the Thais have showed preflowers, #1 and #2 are female, #3 is male. I'll keep the male and try to collect some pollen from it.
Thai #1 has huge leaves and smells sweet. I think it will be the chosen plant to be transplanted outdoors at my best place. This will happen after several days which are going to be rainy, according to the forecast.
Thai #2 smells more sharply with dank notes. I'll give it to a friend who is going to grow it guerrilla style.
And last, a clone of Super Silver Sour Diesel Haze, Ojd's cut, which I'm waiting to root. I'll have to find a place somewhere in the bushes for it. Curious to see if all the accolades that this cut has gathered are deserved.
Thank you, people I'll try to have some nice-sized plants to make the season and this thread interesting Only two-legged predators can destroy 7 different strains, fingers crossed for these animals to miss my little garden yet another season.
All plants but the SSSDH cut (which is still rooting) were trasplanted outdoors on the 23rd of April. It seems the following morning or 2 were quite cold because the sativas looked stressed and damaged on my visit 2 days later. My neighbours, who live there, said there had been morning frosts.
Here are the 2 Panamas and 2 Zamaldelicas. I still don't know the sex of the Zamaldelicas, so they were transplanted close to each other with the idea to leave only one of them, whichever shows female preflowers first. The Panamas seem the most sensitive to lower temperatures.
The Thai also doesn't look happy, but the cold mornings are over, so I hope to see it happy on my next visit:
The indicas seem to had no problems with the cold mornings. Nepal Jam:
Lovely selection there, all looking really well. The ace stuff will be very lovely I'm sure.
It's 15th May for stuff going outside here then in the ground by moon phase planting around the end of the month.
I've got a Nepal jam X kali China for mine this year, be interesting to see if it keeps up with your Nepal jam.
Good luck with the season.
Hey, Baron, good luck to you too! I'm growing Nepal Jam mainly for medical reasons for a relative and to eventually soften Zamaldelica highs My plant has about a square foot of soil enriched with worm castings (and another 2 squre feet for the Sweet Tooth and Stardawg), the rest is rather compacted local soil in the shrubs, so I don't expect these plants to grow huge. They will receive about 7-8 hours of direct sunlight in the summer, about 4-5 in September. I need about 400 grams of indica buds to mix with the same amount of sativa buds to make edibles with. Nepal Jam is not really an indica, but the fat Nepal leaves don't look sativa either, so I'll see how to count it after the smoke tests.
We'll have to wait a few months for the flowering, but I'm happy to have all plants successfully transplanted and vegging outside before May. They are now building roots and soon will pick vegetative momentum. About 3 months of vegging for the indicas and 4 months for the sativas, they should get nicely sized.
A few photos from today:
Panama #4
Panama #5, which is growing wider than taller without having been topped:
The 2 Zamaldelicas, Zam #1 is on the right side, Zam #2 still hasn't preflowered. The best (as effect) Zamaldelica pheno that I've tried was the one with the strongest preflowering (to the point of slightly auto-flowering), so Zam #2 is not like its mother (Gerrit's Zamal cut) and will be sacked soon.
The Thai, which has its main stem marked by frost-damaged spots. It's still droopy, but looks better and bigger than last time:
Hey Yoss great Thread with interessting strains. Good grow spots too. I really enjoy the high from Nepal jam and nepaljam x congo as its not too extrem as some haze hybrids for example. I find the high to be warm and expansive and theres some good good relaxing feeling at the come down. Fast flowering too
I wish you all the best for the coming season.
