My two girls are finishing up now at about week 14.
Looks like they both are gonna yield very well
This was a learning run for me... the next round will be better. I think I need to increase my Nitrogen a for bit longer during the cycle to help keep them a little greener for a little longer. This run yellowed out a lot (one more than the other due to compost tea issues
).
The more pure sativa of the two has the sweetest smell and she really but on the weight
I have a third female which I still have not put into flower.... she will go in the next round.
More soon , with photos !
Gracias ACE & Dubi !!!

High De La Luz! 
Great to hear you are harvesting your tikals, yield are usually quite nice, especially outdoors! Tikal finishes without much problem at 45 latitude, you are right, she needs nice N feeding even in flowering.
Please, let us know what you think after a bit of curing. Best wishes to you and your family!

Hi all. I germinated my 3 Tikal seeds about a month ago (under a T5) and placed them outdoors in mid march (last weekend). I live in so cal. Two of them appear to be more of a gentle hybrid phenotype. They don't have a strong indica or sativa look just a well balanced looking mix. the other one however looks very Indica. Big ole fat sun leaves. Two of them indicated female including the indica phenotype and I'm not sure about the other one yet. Actually I hope the last one turns out male so I can collect the pollen for a future breeding project. I'll post a pic or two soon.
Happy Growing! .....JED

Ok all I'm a newbie. Sorry about the links to the pics as opposed to just pics posted here. Its the only way I figured out how to do it. Help a brother out if you know how to post pics right here in the forum.
Top pic and bottom pic are the two that look to be a nice mix of Indica and Sativa.
Middle pic is of the Indica Phenotype.
I was hoping to get a real strong Sativa phenotype but it looks like it isn't happening. Maybe if one them is male, I'll recross it back with one of the females and hope for a Sativa phenotype.
Expert breeders, does that sound reasonable? Any advice?

Welcome JEDinHB
Is the standard or fem tikal version ? Independently of the growing traits, tikal always produce great sativa plants at harvest time, excellent strawberry incensey aromas and happy positive sativa high.
Thanks for trust in our work, best wishes!

Guatemalan sativas: beautiful, intensely vigorous roots, scents of black pepper, strawberry, and floral sweetness. Looks at the red stems! They are mostly females, with a couple of males and a couple of undeclared plants that will probably be females. It's really interesting to observe photo responsiveness and flower initiation during different times of the year and in different lines. I've been observing similar stuff in my flo lines grown at different times of the year outdoors. Some plants show sex early and really want to flower as soon as they initiate. Other plants that seem similar in appearance, perhaps slightly more sativa will maintain vegetative growth vigor until age combined with light period initiate flowering.

This Tikal is going out late, in a week or two. I think it's a beautiful plant. I have not flowered her before, so this will be fun.
Im so glad to see more guatamala reports, lovely outdoor plants, i can feel they enjoyed the weather and cares. Thanks for share it!
Dubi, I haven't seen the guatemalans you spoke of last month, but mine are going strong and i have one select male and the same select female cutting.... The guatemalan flo f1 is close to maturation and the select pheno seems to have the best characteristics of both parents...

Looking real good KSP
Best wishes!
Dubi, it is from standard seed, and the packing date is 17/03/08.
I have a nice male from the same pack. I have another pack of these also I think in cold storage.
I like the looks of this plant and look forward to seeing her grow outdoors.
That's great to know
Im curious to see how the flo blends with guatemala! And good luck with your new guatemala line, should be fun to explore and compare with the ace guatemala you have just experienced.Best regards!
Dubi! I just wrote you about the guatemalan x flo hybrid: She is harvested and the f1 i selected has the best characteristics of both lines and an increased yield. She smells of pink lemonade, similar to the ace panama that i have tried, and the high is very clear, up, and funny and not too potent.
I have made a back cross to my flo line and a made a whole new batch of guat x flo f1's with the original guat mom and a select male from the next generation of my flo line
