Ahoy, growers. Zamal is getting close to being harvested.
I’ll try get better photos, lovely colours came out.
Looking down the microscope excites.
Also have a male maturing on a window sill. Pollen chucking ahead!
How does zamaldelica take to revenging? Looking to maybe keep a cutting.
Happy growing.

Almost done at 11 weeks, getting more and more purple by the day.
they reveg well. I'm revegging a clone now that came from a flowering plant, was revegged, and harvested and it still seems like it's going well. if yours is a semi flowering pheno some fresh soil will help it along. I also like to go through and remove as many calyxes as the plant can take to reduce flowering hormone.
Hi all! Update and question...both of my Zamaldelicas are losing some of their fan and medium sized leaves due to yellowing.(like 4 or 5 a day). It's been like 10 days ago when I first noticed this started and I'm only at +- 25 days into flowering. No other bad signs so far. I've been feeding them bat guano (more than the usual dose, so I don't think it's lack of food) and they have fattened a lot. Also both of the plants are developing a couple of seeds each. What can it be?

The yellowing seems to be the natural way of Zamaldelica, in my experience. All of mine have done this even the F2 feminized seeds I've planted have quickly started consuming and dropping the fans in flower.
The seeds you see developing are quite likely selfed seeds, meaning somewhere above them there is a hidden male flower, usually tucked away at the base of a bud branching. Not easy to see on a live plant, I usually find them when I start trimming the buds, but if you know where to look you can find them.
The male flowers are usually few and are common when the plant sees any kind of stressors, like light leaks, ph balance issues etc. Hope this helps.

Awesome, thanks very much for the info! Good to know with the soil and calyxes.
I'll be giving her a second life as a mother, so.
I'll search for the male flowers then. I cut a couole of them during veg in one plant, but maybe there's another one somewhere. Regarding the yellowing of the leaves, I hope it's something natural as you say. I've grown a wide variety of plants and these are the first that behave like this.
Thanks mate

Always a pleasure seeing the plants getting posted here.
Have a male going full “houseplant”, flowering by a window. And have been collecting some pollen. Of the two, it was the more vigorous, so it’s got that trait, hopfully.
Any pointers as to phenotype or other traits to look out for? Stem gives woody, insense and tobacco smells.

Thanks! I have been trying to follow the instructions of a stickie in the breeding section (t=1034). Drying the pollen in the fridge a few days at a time, then freezing it.

Good to know that potency lasts in the fridge, thanks. GT pollen is a nice one to have. Will probably give a good kick to whatever you add t to!
wow! 5 years!!?? Didn't think pollen lasted that long. So good to know. Did you use a anything to keep it from getting mouldy?

I think the piece of paper where I puted the pollen, suck out the moisture in some way. I'm also really careful about avoiding any organic matter other than the pollen itself (no piece of leaf or flower)
For my Tikal Pollen I put it in a little airthight galss can. I tough putting some rice in it to suck out the moisture but i'm not sure about that idea. I also like the freezing idea Nup is using.
I also have some seed having close than 10 year, and they are still working. I put them in a airtight can, with rice, in the fridge

AHA! This is the other zamaldelica thread, eh? I was just at the other one. Glad this is still going on, folks!
I just popped 3 REGULAR seeds and plan to clone them and maybe grow them both indoors and outdoors.
Nice to see you all!
Cheers,
