Jamaldelika and Banghi Haze in the open

[orfeas]

Hi orfeas!

Your Zamaldelica is a beast! Impressive bush, the extreme branching is very zamalish but the leaf has some thai influence too, looking forward to see them flowering in the upcoming weeks, thanks for the updates and the great gardening work.

Oye che! Muchas gracias!

See, I've been growing for quite sometime now, since previous century that is but I've never come across such a beast! I have to say, though, an acquaintance of mine in my area would grow similar threes with stems the size of an arm, which is the case with this Jamaldelica, using his own seeds, some kind of IBL I suppose....
Pity I never asked him for some beans.

Thanks again for providing these fine genetics!

[orfeas]

can I place my hammock under your trees?

I'll keep them clean and dry 24/7.

booked allready, let me know!

You? In a hammock?
No way, boy!
Unless you are something other than a giant German nightcrawler

You're welcome, kumpel, anytime!

Wow man seeing a narrow leaf done right you have a personal tropical forest. My weather won't allow me even to attempt it.
My bangi was doing great but it got hammered by the last storm. The wind and the rain lashed it and knocked it over. As I was righting it I noticed a horror that had me gnashing my teeth.
The feared but inevitable grey mold.
I immediately grabbed a can of lysol disinfectant and sprayed away. Then I gooped it up with Neosporin antibiotic ointment. A week later..

Seems to have contained the damage and the weather has been favorable.
Here's the full view. I still might lose her but she looks great. Resilient strain.

So far so good. Glad I had my medicine bag ready.
My Purple LUIs smell amazing.

This is the Mendicino purple fruit strain I've been missing. I see very little of the original Legend Ultimate Indica influence. I've looked up pictures of it and it looks like an Afghan Hash Plant. Mine is more of a California Mexi influenced hybrid.

Here's my Leda Uno. It looks really Indica in the past it's been mostly Sativa. Makes me wonder if I crossed up labels.

Been tossing some LUI pollen around. Hitting the Bangi below the damaged stem might be a good backup for next year. The fruitalicous tropical flavors would be delectable.

Grey mold, eh?
No matter what remedial action is taken, that invisible fungus seems to be invincible...

I hope your Bangi and mine as well will hold out till at least trichomes turn cloudy. False hopes? Time will tell... But glad your other ladies are doing fine!

How windy is your spot Orfeas? I think there maybe a correlation between wet+wind that causes the grey mold. Normally wind is good because it dries everything out. But when I get a storm my plants get knocked around and damaged. Than the wet wind chills it enough for the mold to grow. Maybe a wind break might help.

Hail fellow well met!

wet+wind sounds quite an assumption but the latter doesn't seem to be my case for we rarely get devastating chilly wind since my Aegean shore is not your PNW Yet, open Aegean sea can be as dangerous despite the inability to raise fifteen-meter-high Pacific waves...

So I'd attribute the problem to the extensive humidity plus the presence of quite a few various fungus in the vicinity of my growing spot. I know there are certain measures I can take, cleaning & antifungal spraying well before planting but it's quite a lot of work and I am not a farmer by profession...

Sea of Green!

Lofty and unbowed on the catwalk
undaunted by stem rot (knock wood)!

flowering for three months now
what indolent a pace
an undefined tantalizing scent
can't get me nostrils away

Hey Orfeas,

I planted mine in the soil outside today also. I love your thin leaf Thai looking Zamaldelica. Wicked Looking:

I'm growing some NepalJam as well as the Bangi Haze. This NepalJam is the skinniest leaf plant out of all of them:

Cold and wet weather is rolling back in here. Perhaps it will help get the roots established before it gets really hot.

Did this plant turn out to be a Jamaican blue mountain pheno, it looks like mine did

Thanks, mate!

I wish you were right about the few weeks as she is swelling quite fast now turning her trichomes cloudy...
But on an every other day morning visit I find her completely drenched in morning dew as if it had been raining all night, so humid it is...and, alas, yesterday I spotted the first sign of bud mold
Think I might give her a light milk dilution spray.

I think it does lean to the Jamaican side. It started out the earliest, but now it keeps pushing out pistils, and looks like it will ripen later than the Bangi. It is more Sativa looking than the rest.

T.B.

Mine was 3 foot taller than my 5 other nepjams, bud sites were more spread out and branchy, smoke was more rush like

Yes. That NJ plant I have is extremely branchy, thinner buds but more of them due to the number of branches. I'm hoping the high is rush like. I can't wait!

I don't know what I was thinking. A picture is worth a thousand words:

Looks similar to mine but larger, I got a late planting date because of weather

My "Blue Mountain" NepJam pheno, not a good picture, preflowering

It does look similar. Maybe even skinnier and longer leaves. Very nice looking.

By contrast here is the NepJam pheno of which I had 5 compared to one branchy thin leaf tall
