Ok, you got me very curious now : I have exchanged it with the MalawixPanama, originally scheduled for Feb ...
Kali China Feminized
- Thread starter MedBelgUsr
- Start date
Hi MedBelgUsr,
Kali China is a mostly indica strain so it doesn't produce typical sativa reflowerings. I think you can expect about 4 more weeks approx to finish them.
As i commented previously, it's a quite inbred and stabilized line for its psychoactivity so you will find the effects very close to the strain description.

Thanks Dubi.
I'm wondering about the growth of the Kali : as I have time to let it flower as long as required, should I expect multiple flowerings if I give the plants enough time ( like it's the case for other strains ) ?
I know the picture showing the flower closeup is blurry, but as you followed the growth and developpement thread closely, how many weeks should I expect before the Kali is ready ? and if I add 2 weeks, will the plant lean more towards a balanced effect slightly more physical/narcotic/hypnothic ?
You are welcome: I just finished growing few Mr Nice for 18 months, and now I will give a try to your plants for around 18 months too, as I couldnt find an overwhelming medical strain with Mr Nice.
It's the quality of your work and its reputation that makes me feel like trying your plants, and if I find what I need : you'll become my permanent breeder ( like you are already for many other people on this forum)
But for the Kali, if I have enough yield, I will try making fermented cobs and rosin press extraction, and share the knowledge/pictures.
Cheers

Good, if you think they should not be finished before at least 4 weeks then I'll start checking the trichomes color not before 3 weeks
As a matter of fact, timing is really a vital info for me ( and plenty of others ) coz, being a medical user, I dont have the luxury to reach zero stock ... so the next germination is always overlapping with the end of the current strain.
And the next growth will be 3 MalawixA5 and 3 MalawixPCK ...

The plants are entering their 5th week of flo, some leaves start to die from the natural process ( well, I hope that it's a natural process ) and all is looking good : nothing to do.
I have lowered the feeding to start using Top Shooting powder ... I am curious to see if it lives up to its hype ... it is supposed to bring up to 20 % bigger trichomes ...
So I hope it will be visible ...

Thanks for your advice !
Sadly, I dont have enough space to compare with various nutrients so I have simply reduced the PK, and compensated with this product. I know how PK alone works, so we'll see.
I'm not a big fan of additive but I try a new one once in a while ... and I still have to be convinced by one
House&Garden is a reputable brand, so I'll give it a try. I hope someone here has tried it and has an opinion ( even bad ).

The plants are entering their 6th week of flo, and, like last week, all is looking good : nothing to do.
Top Shooting Powder doesnt seem to have burned all the plants ( at least; noy yet ;o) ) and as I've read that that product adds 2 more weeks
of flo, I have added a tiny weeny drop of N, so the plants are not all dead too soon.
There are few light brown pistils appearing, go girls !!!!

Roll the drums : the plants are entering their 7th week of flo !! 
And judging from the pictures : all is going well
At first I thought I would do a microscope check this week but it's obvious the plants are not close to bre ready : all the pistils are still mainly white.
I also noticed that while the plants phenotype seem to be very uniform ( great ! ), the riping duration seems to be different : 2 of the 6 seem to be ripening much slower ( and the leaves dont get dark either .... )
For the rest, I cant wait to harvest ... probably they need another 2-3 weeks ... what do you think Dubi : do they need at least 2 weeks before harvesting or maximum 2 weeks ?

So the 8th week of flo is starting today ...
do we finally see the light at the end of the tunnel ??
I have made few microscope checks and, I dont know about you, but it seems like we have around 20% of milky trichomes and hardly any amber at all ...
Imho, they still need a good 2 weeks, minimum !

Loocking great MedBelgUsr, excellent result so far. Good pictures, too.And some flowers ...
The macros show that you can let her go a little longer.

9th week starts today !
I have mixed feelings regarding when to cut them : do I cut them ( partly ) next week-end ( so in 1 week ) ? or I wait for another 2 weeks ?
If I cut some alreaqdy next week-end, I would first cut the upper flowers, and the rest 1 week later ...
What do you think ?

The harvest will take place this Saturday ... I hope it's not too early.
Timing looks perfect for the darker leaved tops. You can harvest the tops, and give the lower buds another week or two to ripen a bit more if your space allows you the time for it. If you have the next generation ready to fill in behind these, it will be okay to harvest all together.
Forgot to compliment your Beautiful Kali China plants. They look great!

Thanks FletchF.Fletch for your comments
Reading your suggestions about harvesting and your logic, I think I can probably harvest all the buds.
Why ? well, as a matter of fact, the darker leaves tops weren't located on the top of the plants, but rouhgly at the first third ... so the upper flowers are even more ripe.
This Saturday, they will be gooooone
PS : and you are right also about the lack of space ..;
