Malawi, Golden Tiger, Wild Thailand & Apple Betty From Herbies Seeds

[Chuckeye]

Got busy so the rest of the girls received one more watering....

Accidentally snipped off a bud of Malawi when wet trimming so I cut it up and dried it between paper towels.

Tasted as you would expect but WoW Eeee, this stuff has a kick

Cheers

 

[Chuckeye]

Thought I would have some fun before jumping up and tackling supper

After a half bowl

This is the state of the girls !

Wild Thailand is 20 days over breeders guestimate, has slowed down on feeding and seems to just keep pushing out foxtails.

She is done !

Golden Tiger still has a lot of white pistils...

Apple Betty is also over due and in the window

This bud is almost horizontal and still able to support herself..

Cheers

Looking awesome Chuck and I can’t wait for the smoke report. CL

 

[Danishoes21]

Congrats on your harvest. After 90+ days well deserved.

Much more testing will be required but I think you've already got the smoke report

Taste will improve but the effect Is There

Moves my Lambs Bread down a spot on my list, he, he...

Cheers

Thank you !

Looking back I don't think I realized how long a grow this would be !

A good month longer than previous grows

Almost Half a year

But, I think or at least hope they will reach gourmet levels

Cheers

Anyone spending 6 to 8 months a year to grow a flower is worth admiration. Sativas are not just a quick kick and flip 12/12 type of cultivar. They need training and you have done it in a very planned fashion, they also require specific photoperiods and somewhat of a nutrient regimen but thats open for debate.

I'm glad you get to see them bulk up and harvest.

I have an idea of the profile an avid sativa grower should have and that is patience and observation. I believe you fit that.

Day 103

Wild Thailand received a 1/2 gallon of feed after five (?) days, a mini drought !

Golden Tiger is still receiving a gallon every four days...

The Malawi yielded 3/4's of a 3 gallon tote BUT, I used my air pump as a fan on high and she was feeling crispy after only four days. Cheapo hygrometer's are saying 62%, sigh...

Prefer to take a week of hang drying to get to 70% and a month of burping to get to 58%...

Good news is "taste" is of minor importance to me but I'm hoping to get a week or more to reach 58% and a month or so of vacuum in mason jars before I start "testing" her

Shouldn't effect potency...

Apple Betty is wet trimmed and hang drying

So much for keeping her tidy

Cheers, eh ?

 

[Danishoes21]

Cheers!

 

[Chuckeye]

My Malawi was @58% tonight so vacuum packed into mason jars she went !

Total yield, a little over 7 1/4 oz

Very nice high, the usual energetic, creative and clear(ish) head high.

But, I do find I have to pay a little bit more attention to what I'm doing compared to my latest daily driver of Lambs Bread

Easily worth the relatively long grow time !

As to taste, well.

It's a little early to say with virtually no cure but it's smooth enough.

Keep in mind I usually can't do much more than half a 14mm bowl with my bong

Not much time to savor the flavor

Cheers, eh ?

Day 107 and still haven't found the time to take down the Wild Thailand.....

I don't think she is ever going to amber up, just keeps foxtailing

Apple Betty is in a tote ! Found one little bud (bowlful) on the floor of my drying tent that was dry enough to smoke.

Not what I was expecting ! Very nice high and boy did I get a lot done last night

Can't really say it was good for pain but I would go for quite a while without even noticing I was sore

And a mini celebration !

BBQ'ed Greek style ribs and asparagus, baked mushrooms and shrimp with a blanket of mozzarella

Cheers, eh ?

 

[Chuckeye]

Day 109 and the Wild Thailand has been harvested !

Buds are on the airy side but there is much More than I thought there would be

Up high...

Front views...

And hanging, that's 8' of string

Cheers

Technically Day 163 from sprout

Apple Betty is vacuum packed in jars and FoodSaver bags, final tally 11 oz.

The Golden Tiger (which I dried on the plant) and the Wild Thailand (dried in my tent) are in totes !

This is the glamour shot of The Golden Tiger

And full plants...

At first I was disappointed with myself for not doing a better job of management on the bottoms.

But I quickly remembered, Smoke report after pictures

Those little buds on the bottom aren't even worth taking the scissors to them so I pinch them off with my fingers, put them in a bowl and dry them in my tent.

These Wild Thailand "buds" dried and ground up yielded about three bowlfuls !

Well I had a half bowlful and am High As A Kite

Can't really comment on the taste, about what you expect without a cure. Nothing really stood out, it tasted like, well, pot

Stronger than the Malawi or the Apple Betty

I actually had to turn off my music while cooking supper and editing images. Too distracting otherwise ?

Peace and quiet. Very Unusual !

About what I have come to expect and enjoy from a 100% Sativa !

Head high, generally happy, pain forgotten, still able to do stuff but With Much More Concentration and a little effort to get out of my chair

Once up I'm fine !

When editing images I would lose track of what step I was on

No wonder Herbies says >

Thanks to its 23% THC, this feminized cannabis strain produces a powerful euphoric effect that will last a long time. Wild Thailand will lift your mood and leave you feeling excited, yet not overly heart-racing. If you’re looking for an old-school strain that will leave you energetic and motivated....

Cheers, eh ?

This was an impressive grow. Two of the strains are already in my future plans. I have three Golden Tiger seeds that I will sprout soon. Golden Tiger will replace the Acapulco Gold that is two weeks from finishing at the most. I will run them in SCROG. Flip very fast, and ride the bucking bronco, trying to manipulate them into doing my bidding. I will plant all three seeds, but I'm secretly wishing for only two to run. I think a pair would do nicely in a 4x4. . The other strain will be next spring and I'm really thinking Apple Betty would be a fine choice. I'll have to order them. I'll run four of them in the tray.

I am running 2 GT 3.0 right now in my grow box in a low stress grow. They have basically stopped their stretch at a month after the switch and after much manipulating I have them at about 3ft of plant growth. I was worried about their hight but the LST took care of that. Now it's just a waiting game....

 

[Danishoes21]

Congrats again on your multiple harvest. Great buds and great results.

Thanks @Danishoes21 !

Kind of glad it's over, he, he... Roughly 40 days longer than any other grow I've done !

Thinking of an auto grow next with 3 SIP's and a hempy bucket !

Cheers

its a half a year commitment, to me thats outstanding.

Nice to slow the gears down with an Auto grow. Looking forward to it.

Are you doing a journal on them? I'd like to follow along.
