Kali Mist/Diesel grow with Supernova/UFO LEDs

[Nick Sand]

How long do your Kali Mists take to flower from clone? I have one that finishes in 13 weeks, 12 weeks for another, and another at 11. I love them all and I am having a hard time choosing a mother and culling the rest. I hear that the Kali can yield huge under large lights but my set up is modest, at best. I am finding that under a 250w hps a clone being put into flower directly after rooting is yielding me about 7 grams dried. I will be trying some lollipopping next round to see what happens. They stretch like a mother fucker, about 4x.

I have just spent the past couple of days trimming the fresh Kali girls. Just vaped my first quick-dried, mature bud. The high is amazing. I am so happy.

I have all of the buds drying in the now cleaned-out grow room because it has such great airflow. As soon as the stems snap I'm gonna let all of the buds cure for awhile. My Diesel buds and Super Lemon Haze buds keep getting better and better with the long cure, but I still have to leave them out for an hour or so if I want to grind them. I think I threw them in jars too soon.

I let both Kalis go 12 weeks in flower and I flushed them with plain water for 2 weeks. I flowered them about 8 weeks after they germinated so they were pretty big. I think that my next Kali grow will involve a slightly shorter veg period and a lot of fimming . . . . the top on one of the Kalis (see photo below) was so monstrous and heavy. I saw some photos on the Serious Seeds website where a grower fimmed one of his big females about 4 times and got a bunch of monster tops.

I've been puttering around with some kelp extracts and soil mixtures and am very excited for my next grow. I'm going to grow Bubblegum (Serious Seeds) and some more Dinafem Diesel.

P.S. I don't know my total yield yet, but NOT counting the Kalis, I got about 80G of dried, manicured bud off of the other four girls, more than half of that from the Dinafem Diesel. The yield from the two Kalis will be pretty big. In any case, I am enjoying the luxury of smoking as much as I want from a stash that should last me until Christmas. Yah!
Both Kalis were over a meter tall, Big Kali was almost five feet tall.

All I can say is "wow" that's some serious work you have put in and great to see you enjoying the fruits of your labor.
