Thanks mate.
Yes as soon as I see the first true leaves, I'm throwing them both in flower
Would also like to say that the Malawi beans cracked before 24 hour soak and emerged from cubes in less than 24 hours. Very good start compared to PCK, China Yunnan. I like to be fair on any good or bad I may experience while trying Ace, or any breeder. So far, these remind me of Bangi Haze in starting quick and being viable

Awesome. Would love to see any pics and updates on them

After reading this entire post I am totally sure I wouldn't be interested in running any of these beans you guys keep talking about 14-16 week flowering time, isn't that the entire point of breeding plants? To lower the flowering time and increase potency? 15 weeks of flowering is a total waste of time I could grow 4 crops of northern lights or even 2 crops of a normal 8 week strain.
Flavors + Increased potency is the entire point. Flowering time matters but not as much.
Long flowering sativa's lose their special effects when you shorten flowering times by adding indica.
14-16 weeks is short flowering time for a pure sativa
Some can flower for 24 weeks...

Nope you are totally wrong I have smoked landraces many times, I live in Colorado the number 1 place in the world for the best nugs, tyvm. Seems like a waste of time and grow space/plant count to wait half a year for 1 strain. I stopped growing RD Moonshine haze because it took over 12 weeks fuck 14weeks +. Here's what I am smoking on today, this won the cannabis cup this year in Denver,CO for hybrid.

Well I'm pretty sure these long flowering plants have some merits in their own right. Yes people like to cross with these types of plants to bring down the flowering times, but what else is affected? Surely genetic recombination means other aspects of the plant is lost.
I don't know many people at all that grow out these types of plants. I'd guess that the majority of smokers, including myself may have never truly had a pure sativa plant in the first place.
I've got a perpetual, and a little space for plants that can take a while. So flowering time is less of a concern.
A similar analogy would be why grow (insert low yielding strain) over big bud, you can harvest so much more in the same time. Well because the end product is totally different.

Cups are simply circle jerks so someone can say this is the best.
12 weeks to 14 weeks? What's another 2 weeks when you've already invested that time plus are going to have to invest another month in drying and curing?

And I said I stopped growing those slowbies because of the growth rate, right now I am focusing my sativa efforts on plants that take no more than 10 weeks to flower ( right now got a nice little golden goat girl going) and I wouldn't change it at all waiting an extra month when in this state you can only grow 6 plants legally(only 3 flowering) isn't going to work for someone that smokes at least an eighth of meds a day.

I understand if you have limits and what not. I do as well and mostly follow them.
I just think having limits on flowering time will eliminate a lot of decent genetic offerings. I wouldn't have my Goji plant (11-12 weeks) or Sunshine Daydream (10.5 - 11 weeks) if I had to put time limits on them.
To each their own I suppose. But in this thread we will show some longer flowering plants, so I hope you stop on by and check them out. Perhaps it will change your mind, if not at least you will see what's what
ETA how are you liking Golden Goat? I really enjoyed that plant from a smoking perspective. I also think there are very few if any pure sativas finishing up in 10 weeks or less to be honest. Hybrids, yes, pure satty? Doubtful

You might love those strains but for me I can get strains from proven genetics that produce big yields of rock hard buds that are sativa dominate in much less time and they are my favorite strains anyway so why not run that and save the time and yield more?
Colorado #1 in the world for best nugs...there is the ignorance I was talking about
Do you have some results or just what you've heard?

Everyone's garden is different, so I can't say what is best for me is best for you.
I don't know if I'll like the plant or not. Hence why I'm growing it. I'm looking forward to trying something new and pretty much unavailable. I've been to shops, rarely do I ever see a true satty. Closest thing I'll see is a super silver haze or something similar.
