They are looking good and quite advanced for your latitude @Michaeldivecenzio especially first plant in your bud pics. What is the weather like there in October to early November, and how cold can it get?
Thank you!

There’s going to be good weather the next 2 weeks Above 15 degrees during the day but the nights will be dropping to 10 ish. It can get pretty cold though this morning was 4 degrees. I’ll update pictures today

Three Malawi ladies joining the party. These are fems. There’s also one Zamaldelica fem in the photo off to the side. One of the malawi is really vigorous.

A couple of them were a bit sensitive to my seedling soil I think. A bit of leaf distortion when I potted them up from the jiffy plug.

My seedling mix is one part worm castings, one part perlite, one part peat/rice hull mix and one part regular used living soil. Maybe next time I’ll cut the worm castings and regular soil amounts in half. They are happy now and so am I.

Hello everyone, I present my little Malawi germinated on July 15. I kept it in a small pot for two months due to lack of space, very discreet in smell and very resinous.
