So the current Tikal is 75% Guatemalan, correct?
Gracias
Dubi, how well will Tikal grow indoors? I think ker2noir some of your are grown indoors (nice plants ker2noir)? Would she require topping or LST to be grown indoors?
I'm at 38 N lat, temperate climate, so I know I could do OK outside with her, but would maybe like to try her indoors as well.
Nice plant.
Good day ShoeboxSherman,
Tikal can be perfectly grown indoors. Her height, feeding requirements, flowering stretching and flowering time would be very similar to our panama strain. Check lastest pages at panama thread to see how they were grown indoors, they finished with big yield and reasonable size for indoor growing, only limiting size pot till first 3 weeks of flowering.
Outdoors at 38N can be grown with great success, it was bred at 37N warm coastal climate.
I hope it helps!
Time for an update. First I have a correction. I said in my last post that I thought I burnt them with kelp extract, but that was wrong; they were hungry. They're very vigorous feeders for sativa doms.
They also don't respond well to root-binding, but more on that in a minute. One is a confirmed female and one is a suspected male.
The aroma in veg is like sweet and sour sauce with a hint of mustard seed. My hat is off to komanche for breeding these beasts, although they still haven't passed the most important test.
My exhaust fan just died a painful death and I'm too broke to buy a new one, so I'm not entirely sure how I'll flower these, but I'll figure something out. I'm a grower.
So the new version of Tikal is (NlHaze x Guatamalan ) x Guatamalan?
Does anyone have any info on what NlHaze was used in the breedin?
We have pollinated selected Tikal females from the original hybrid ( NLHazes X Guatemala) with our 3 best guatemala males to produce the new Tikal version, it's a backcross to the father line (guatemala sativa), she's still very very vigorous and more uniform than our past Tikal offering.
