C5/mango-Laos & KA5 Trichomes CU

Where the magic happens: Note the greater number of trichomes on the C5./M/Laos compared to the KA5. Pretty imperssive trichome coverage on the C5/M/L. The KA5 definitely has larger trichome bulbs however. Not too many amber heads yet. But did a close up of one lone KA5 amber.

So... how to get those large bulbs onto the C5/M/L huh? Match made in sativa heaven in the waiting? The C5/M/L went 14 weeks plus into a real sudden cold spell here over the last three weeks. (Down a week ago). Temps down to the 4C on a regular basis. KA5 still in. Have taken an 'insurance cut' off the top of the KA5 as I want to see how she performs and what the trichome development does. Seems to be dealing with the bud rot issue well enough. As did the C5.M/L. Interesting hobby innit?

Furthermore: A while back, I was told straight out of Duck World: "Some friends tell me the Mango is very nice". Can I just say regarding the C5/Man/Laos... Oh yeh! Salute'.

PS: Below is the C5/M/L a few weeks before top cut. It picked up some lovely purple tones in the cold snap.

Digital Microscope. Well worth the $160. DOF can be a bit narrow... but good enough for a decent look see.

Great effort in the colder weather.
Here is another NH x C5 mango still going down under in Mid May. Very resilient plant and mould free.
Great medicine as well, gets even better with a 4-6mth cure.

With you on the cure thing. Really something to behold when done well. The sativas in particular. Have some NHxC5 to play with next season. If I get another season.
