It’s a strain from South Africa, along the Southeast Coast. Transkie was considered a tribal region during Apartheid. Just to the South is another region called Ciskie. Both regions have their own Landrace. The seeds were sent to me from an old member in SA in the Transkie region.
That's so cool! I love hearing linage stories. Thanks Penny
 
So it rained overnight last night and all day yesterday it was very humid I buttoned up the greenhouse but left the higher vents open. Temperatures last night got down to probably about 12 again. I'm going to move my portable heater out to the greenhouse just to help cast a little warm breeze on the cool nights.

I fed everybody 30 g of May at crab the other day on Saturday. They grew a lot and got very frosty which was great to see however so Liz and then leaves have still gotten lighter in color. I think I need to add Cal Meg. They're definitely yellowing from the bottom up. But the overall plant colour is more of a lime green then a rich green.They are needing more than what I'm giving them I can tell.

The next feeding I'm also adding molasses. I add quite a bit to my 5 gallon bucket I've never really measured it but it's probably equal to half a cup.I kind of poor and twirl it around the bucket boat three times. Half a cup would be my guess. I haven't fed them since they slept so they're probably starving for some.
 
What you think @MrSauga ? They are at 30 right now. Most have at least 15 days till looking for harvest
If you were at the beginning of flower I would say drop the MC down and give her some calmag. Right now your plant is building buds and you may have 2-3 weeks left. I would stick at 30 grams til you finish. It's only been one feed since you have been at that level so I would give it at least one more at 6g/gal.
If you feel you want to try another route then you need to drop the MC down to 5g/gal and add 5mL/gal of calmag. This will green the plant up but now you're taking away the K and other nutrients in MC to build those buds.
Some plants will yellow no matter how much MC you give them. Too much and we get into lockout issues and at this stage of the game you want a smooth finish.
You were quite low on the feed earlier so your plant is still trying to catch up with the latest changes.
 
Sure thing Penny. Once you start getting over 6g's/gal you start pumping in more Ca and Mg then the plant can handle and most likely will end up with a K def resulting from a lockout.
The best attack in mid to late flower is ride it out or back off the MC and give it the calmag.
You then give it roughly the same Ca and Mg but increase the N. My point being that in flower we can do with less N if the tops are going good and keep the K strong.
