Right up the middle. First to flower, and only thing flowering. 10 on 14 off, for a week or so.
Oh and just did the final sulphur spray for ipm

Nice @LG/ :) hope you also find interesting expressions from your 5 females.
What's the size of your tent ad pots ? Getting busy!

Moved 4/5 New Caldonia to a different tent. Had to clear up some space in the jungle tent.
That's them in the back
There in good company! Polyhybrid roommates, but they seem to be getting along OK.
They trained up real nice, seem stable and stayed reasonably sized.

Thanks for asking!
1 gallon grow bags.
The tent their in now is a 3x3 with 270 watts led. 18 plants :/ but the polyhybrids are really close to done. Then everything gets rearranged.
Their old home is a 4x4 with 437.5 watts led, 15 plants now (was 20 plants!). I'll post a pic of that tent now in the Thai thread.

Generally I run 25-35 w led per square foot.
With most plants I top once as you can see, to get 2 main stalks. Except with stuff I know will stretch alot I top like crazy.

Sometimes when I post and I'm amped up I seem aggressive. Please don't take it that way. I'm not a keyboard warrior and try my best not to be a toxic dick.
Yes, this is better.
I'd wait, I can't say how long but a lot of those heads(top of trichomes) are still clear. Milky is better possibly with some amber, depends on strain and effect you're looking for.
Pistil wise, is the plant still throwing white pistils? Are the ones that are there turning red and starting to curl back towards the calyx?
Oh also look at both the sugar leaf and calyx trichomes, probably focusing more on the calyx trichome color than leaf for ripeness.
Different parts of the plant(top,bottom,middle) will ripen at different times typically also.

All good, thank you for your answer.
The plant is still producing new pistils.
The brown pistils are more streight upward like the white ones.

For me i find it realy difficult to identify milki and clear trichomes....

Here's my short answer as someone who hasn't grown this strain yet and has poor eyesight: 3 weeks.
Okay thank you, we will see.

Clear\translucent
Milky\opaque
If you can see through them I'd call it clear.
Looking at the ones that are in focus the heads or balls sitting on the stalks\stems, you can see through them. The way the light hits them sometimes can make it hard to tell.
If the plant is throwing new pistils and the ones that are there aren't receding (still straight) it's not ready yet. Some plants will throw pistils til you harvest, this is where trichomes come in(amber, milky, clear).
I'd suggest to google some pictures of the varying ripeness of trichomes but be careful of the rabbit hole that may come of it as you'll probably be left with more questions than answers. Maybe just look at the color of the trichomes and no words. Idk..
Remember most of what we look for is in the calyx so look at the trichs on it vs the sugar leaf, but be sure to take both into account.This part isn't as clear as I'd like it but I'm not sure how to change it.
That and watch the plant as a whole (top, bottom, middle - in no particular order) as itll ripen at different times.
Take small buds (maybe the popcorn,larf) for samples and when it's the effect you want take a quick look under the scope and harvest anything that looks like it. Obviously looking at it before you smoke it 😀
Props on your grow, the plants look good and the training was well done.

Hmmm, i grew Thai Chi and got to try Nepal Jam x Kali China from another grower and both are pretty heavy relaxing or sleepy... the NJ x KC more on the body, Thai Chi first with a heavy head high and a bit cloudly and max an hour later it is super relaxing that you want to sleep.

But maybe you just need the right phenotype...




Some New Caledonia my buddy @early_bird gifted me in summer, ripe and well cured:

Since that was already a few months ago i don't remember much but i know it was more light, a bit creepy but pretty clear and i liked it. Smell was like carrots and soap. ^^ I will get a few more buds soon to try and i will grow it by myself. :)
