Thai x Panama

look almost done from here @El Timboif spider mites start to affect the flower this usually speeds up ripening, degrades resins and terpenes, which become woodier and nastier.

She's the least affected by spider mites of the 9 females I've had on this grow.

Hi everyone!
Here are some photos of my Thai x Panama. She is grown in 8,5 litre pot under DIY led light on 11/13 light schedule from seed.
Now shes in week 3 of proper flowering and starts producing resin on leaves near flowers.

I'm loving the effect from mine - great feel good, active high!

How about the less important qualities: looks, smell, taste..?

Nothing remarkable so far in taste or smell but not unpleasant - let's see after a longer cure. It makes a large amount of thick vapour.

Welcome to ICMag @Specimen and thanks for sharing with us your current grow diary with Thai x Panama.
I like a lot the way you tamed her with perfect size for your indoor setup, speaks very good about your growing skills and understanding of sativa plants. Please, keep us updated!

So glad to hear that @El Timbo perfect to deal with heat during summer time!

Here are some more pics. Two weeks since last update. I have cut some of the weaker branches and had to defoliate her to allow more air flow. She is giving off delicate smell of lemon and something creamy.

This is how the plant looked around 7 weeks from defining budsites if i remember correctly

Below is one of her bigger buds. I like the foxtaily structure, the tops are also pretty resinous. The smell is still very very delicate, usually i had to use carbon filter but this time its not necessary.

Very well managed in that space. Unsolicited advice - you may be heavy on the nitrogen, very easy to do on these types

excellent development @Specimen love her sexy foxtailed colas as well, flowers look

Advice is always appreciated . Even more so in my case because im still a newbie grower. As to the nitrogen, im using biotabs which indeed are quite rich in nitrogen. Im not giving her any additional nutes apart from compost tea one time and some calmag every now and then.

Is yours cured already? How is it in the terms of high, taste and smell?

Thanks. Cant wait to try her

Yes, a few months of cure now (I like them cured long) and the smoke is great - Long lasting, potent up not draining, clean come down and a high ceiling. Nice euphoric type, slightly trippy

 

[Fronk]

This is probably my favourite morning/day smoke.
I’ve grown her or sisters at least 4 times…
Super clean come down, potent enough without being dirty or anxy.
Very very similar high and terpenes to the OH imo.
Maybe not as complex but little bit brighter and more citrus to the OH…
Pop them if you have them.
Sorry couldn’t find many pictures at this time.

Welcome back @Fronk , we missed you and your pictures. Great looking Thai x Panama

Mine went down after 125 days of 11/13 (from seed). Approx 11.5 weeks after defining budsites. Haven't smoked her yet apart from some little sample bud after which the effect was very promising, very positive high without any anxiety or paranoia. Waiting for her to cure a little in jars. Below are some sexy buds

beautiful looking flowers! looking pretty resinous with big swollen calyxes and foxtails. sexy indeed

you said diy lights, did you build them yourself? how many watts does it run on? the light look cool and effective with that massive cooler. and with this result.

Yes i made it myself, its a Citizen CLU048-1212C4 COB with a Meanwell ELG 100-36A power supplier. The radiator is so big so it can work without additional fan for cooling. It also has 10 little CREE XP-E 660nm leds which were turned off this grow. I didn't have the tools necessary to build it and had to buy them and learn to use them too. Frankly in my situation it probably would have been cheaper and faster to just buy some premade lights. Also my lights concentrate in the center of the box which is suboptimal.

Power of the main led can be regulated by changing the current on the power supply. The power consumed by the led was around 55 - 70 watts i don't know the exact value because the power meter measures also the power consumed by the mixing and exhaust fans. I had to tune the LED down a little in later parts of the grow when the plant grew taller because it was being burned a little and there was no more place to move the led upwards.

The final yield was around 53 g, considering this was almost without veg (11/13 from seed) and grown in 8.5 litre pot i guess its okay. Probably could have been bigger if i had cut some more branches and little popcorn buds.

wow, i think thats pretty impressive! congrats!

Thanks for your report @Fronk
Sounds perfect for my tastes!
