Rasoli

Hi everyone! New IC Mag user, old friend of the cannabis plant. I have a Rasoli from Coco Genes that I scored a 10 pack of in 2018 on a FB Auction I think. I'm rounding the last corner of the marathon with her RN. She will be my 1st seed to flower success once we get there. It smelled like menthol and fruit and gas in the beginning when she 1st started to have a smell but the nose is getting more acrid as she matures, I have a good charcoal filtered exhaust to keep the smell down so I don't think I'm getting all of the nose just yet. Started, Ran them on 14/10 light schedule from Jump St. then 12/12 as soon as I saw pre-flowers bc of how long I thought it might run, out of 4 beans, 3 popped, 2 were male and my stress tester ended up being a female. I think I'm probably 2-3 weeks out from the chop. Fingers crossed.....

I grew Rasoli outside last season, it was from TRSC. I'm bummed I had a groundhog attack and it killed all but two and they were both female. So I couldn't make any pure seeds. I in New Jersey at 40 degrees north. Pictured here are they on October 19 and one day before harvest on November 3 after a 27 degree f freeze, they actually surprisingly did spring right back from that during that day. As you can see they didn't mature here for me. It's still produced nice smoke with it own charm, although not that strong. I made dry sift with most of it and that was really good, I still got some

I remember you from the real seed company thread. Your plants look more mature than mine did and you are a bit further north. All I can think is it's because I started late on purpose so they would not get so large and end up with so much weed to process. I learned my lesson with komoli , I had them up to 18’. My Rasoli also got chomped by the groundhog. I'm stumped this should really have made no difference on maturation time, did all your plant mature at the same time ?

How many weeks in flower now? If you have difficulties getting it to finish under 12/12, try dropping it down to 11/13.

i started mine indoors on April 1st. They went in the ground toward the end of May. Two of the plants developed some weird brief albinism phase when they were three weeks old. One stopped growing the main stem and threw two side stems that made it to 13 feet. The other eventually grew normally to 14 feet. Both flowered early - I topped them mid-October and took the rest down maybe ten days later. They had foxtail kind of wispy flowers with lemon scents.

The other two made it to 18 and 15 feet. Flowers on these were more dense and had sour scents. I topped them in early November and grabbed the rest about five days later. The first pic below shows the top 6 feet or so of the 15 footer, and the garbage barrels contain the bottom parts that were harvested last -

I dropped it to 10/14, 3 weeks ago now when she was sputtering at the beginning of flower. My buddy @ Tonglensong told me to try that to get her going. She's moving good now, swelling smelling and still skretching! I'll remember that though for sure, I hope to see her finish up a week or two before xmas NYE at the longest lol! Thank you everyone!

I'm thinking if all 13 plants I had survived I probably would have had a at least one earlier flowering female and I could have selected the the first male to make seeds. If I had grown them this season they could have still been growing but that's not the norm

Those are beautiful pictures of an great looking happy plant! The female I have running had 1 single variegated branch, with variegated leaves, they're just green and healthy now. Mine is getting more and more sour/dour smelling as she matures and getting dense as she swells, it was watermelon in veg, then apple-ish and now it's turning sour and more complex. I'm going to try my hand at the Sheelavathi or the Cambodian mekong delta beans I have next! My friend at Red Scare Seed Co had a 1.00 bean bonanza awhile back on the Indian Landrace Exchange/Full Power Selections gear that was from between 2018 and 2021 I think so I stocked up and grabbed as much as I could, I grabbed a ton of RSSC's gear to as I always do too bc he's my friend, I support him and his gear is always fire IMHO!
