Golden Tiger

[SmokingBandit]

I have a pack of these and 2 others coming I'm so excited I've not smoked anything like this for 35 years.
I'm so happy ace has these lines I am going to stock up on all them for fear that i might not get another chance to purchase them.
I've waited a long time for them to come back in stock.
Ace you do a beautiful job so glad I found you!

Hi everybody,

Here is my Tiger at 13 weeks 11/13. Pretty much ready, I'm going to harvest her over the next week from the bottom up. I took a sample from her about a week ago and my god, the high is intense, speedy, long lasting etc. Definitely colder and more insane than my zam which has a kinder tone in my opinion.

She had a lemon Body odour smell throughout flowering which has now changed into a sharp fermented/rotten lemon smell. Pretty nice.

Here are a couple more budshots -

She was very thai smelling when growing dubi,smell brought me back to my youth and the thai/laos weed that used to be about.


Loved everything about that plant,smell,taste and high were all top notch.Smell and taste were of pineapples and dentyne chewing gum(spicy with a dominant cinnamon smell and sweet)with an up,euphoric,pain numbing high.
Was a pleasure to grow and smoke like everything I've tried from you guys(except for 1 Malawi plant that was far too narcotic and introspective for my liking)

Hi jaded1,

Wow! What a beautiful reddish GT pheno!
It's, without any doubt, highly related to the red Hmong thai male used in the first breeding steps of this hybrid. But more tamed, resinous and evil. Damn, i would love to try some of that flowers

I'm glad you are also finding good medicinal properties in some of your Golden Tigers, i always had the feeling that the Malawi's powerful and plentiful cannabinoids have tons of potential for medical uses, despite it's extreme psychoactivity.

Thank you very much for sharing your GT experience with us!

Oh my ! Lovely buds and beautiful plants . Look forward to trying some of these myself this year..Thanks for posting images that encourage mi even more to do exactly that. Ace seeds are top top quality both in quality and all round good vibes... Niceness!!!

GT has a great shelf life. I just opened my last jar of the Tiger, filled August 29 of 2015. It hasn't lost its kick sitting in the can. Same thing with a jar of Bangi - except I swear its even stronger now a year and a half later.

I look forward to growing both again after I run the fresh packs of Malawi X Panama and Haze X Kali China I just received

Sweet looking buds!!! Lovely electric pinks and red hues in there! Gonna be some serious TNT when you get to sample her.

That looks really nice pandy. I love your description of the smell. From the way it's worded it sounds like you did 11:13 for the entire flowering cycle? I was reading recently here about people using a reducing light cycle in the end to get them to ripen quicker. I think I'm going to try that on my mostly indicas that I'm running right now I usually take them down at 9 weeks but I feel like they could be more Amber. Talking about dropping it from 12 hours on to 11.5 for week 7 down to 11 week for week 8 and down to 10 for week 9 and seeing what the results are like.

Pandy maybe you already said but I'm curious if you've grown that before how long you let it cure for and if you think it makes a big difference. I really like the bud structure on your golden tiger

Hi ULMW, thanks man I really dig your Ethiopian.

Hi Lammy. Yup it was 11/13 from day 1 of flowering and I took her down at 14 weeks. I'm holding off on a smoke report for the GT and zamaldelica because every time I vape some it has improved. They've been curing for a little over a month now. Definitely need a long cure to be at their best. Here a shot of the GT.

Thanks for the reply pandy. So im planning on doing a selection of the Panama and Malawi and I realize your thing is the golden tiger. But the Malawi and golden tiger seem to need a long cure to be at maximum potency. My concern is that if I flower them for at least three months and then cure them for three months that's half of the year. Which is a long time to keep 30+ backup clones to going. Maybe I'll be able to cancel some of them based on structure or flowering time but I'm curious if I could judge them all relative to one another after say a four-week cure. I might be able to pick the best 25% after they've been in a jar for 4 weeks. What do you think?

Is that red coloration in the leave some sort of natural sun screen the plant produces? anyone notice plants with dark shiny or red coloration in their leaves tend to be more potent?

Yeah man I think you could judge them fairly after a month or maybe even sooner. I've never harvested a plant from Ace that was bunk, it's always at least interesting, if not perhaps everybody's idea of perfect weed, but I've loved each and every one of them. Anyway what I'm saying is that you're probably going to have 30+ plants of fire, but I imagine a few will stand out. Did you see jaded1s pheno on page 103 of this thread? I'm jealous of that one.

I like to think that the red colour is a warning

I grabbed some golden tiger, sugarloaf, and a malawi! I would like to follow along with you sativa folks and gain knowledge if your ok with that!

 

[Levitationofme]

Come join the fun!!

 

[mushulatubbee]

Thankyou lev! I look forward to learning from you all!

You'll fit right in with this friendly crowd.

I always like to grow something quicker like sugarloaf in with the longer sativas. It makes some nice room for the the others after the early ones are gone.

At harvest time you'll know which girls have the best smells, trich coverage, etc. which will shorten your list of keepers considerably and almost immediately. Since no amount of curing will turn nothing into something within a month of harvesting you can find out which of those plants on your short list are the best to consume further reducing your list down to just a handful of plants. That's going to be a lot harder with Ace's gear than most though because every plant is basically a keeper in it's own right but you'll still be able to tell which ones command your attention the most so focus on them and after a few months of curing you'll be able to make a final decision on which one to keep.

If you run out of space grow the mothers plant them like hemp super closer together in small pots. They're not going to be exactly happy over it but it drastically slows them down, especially so if you run low watts, top and defoliate them, and you can fit an insane amount of plants in a small area for quite a long time if you've got a decently tall grow area. If you need good cuts for the next round you should transplant the mothers a week or so before you need to take them but otherwise it's a great way for keeping a very high number of mothers on the go.
