I just got my pictures from last season sorted and thought I’d share some.
Seeds from Prempavee
The plants was sown by my mother in law 
who is now 84, they were also dried and cured by her
The soil in the pots was mostly hard clay soil, so i can surely say it’s an hardy cultivar and i’m very surprised how well they did in there
I did repot some of them as well as re amend the soil the best i could
This is what i saw when i returned to thailand that season 2025
A few more shots
I did spray them with smoky neem oil and it was the first time in thailand that i was able to control the insect population somewhat
I also checked em most every day and removed what i found good or bad
still trying to grasp that part, at least i know ladybugs are beneficial
This “eggs” are cocoon from wasps? In that case they may be beneficial because this kind of wasp they kill caterpillars and other bugs that they otherwise eat you ganja. Anyway is they’re already empty like in this picture you can remove them.
Oh very good to know if i em see again i’ll leave em be
luckily they didn’t seem to mind the neem oil though or i maybe missed that spot
I see you are keeping them in pots, may I ask why?
I can understand why you ask 
they were really suffering from small root space
My first idea was to protect them from too much rain, I’ve been an indoor grower all my life 
And some places granny have used poladan (ant poison) I was worried the plants would suck it in
My wife was also worried I hit pvc pipes(it’s a small garden
The smaller pots have hole under and the plants got taller and healthier, I also dug hole in the ground under the pots with some compost soil
This year I will also try straight in the ground as I’ve already prepared some holes with cow dung/biochar
Yes I think that you should transplant them directly on soil. But if you have problems as you mentioned in my opinion you have two options:
1- you use bigger , much bigger pots
Or
2- you grow them more late on the season like that they will flowering more early and the plants they will be smaller
Anyway is very nice to see them , they are good looking overall amazing job 
Thanks 
Yes I will try some bigger pots and some in the ground
How late in the season can I plant and still have finished flower?
Here in Thailand the more late I can transplant directly in soil is mid December (but I prefer to anticipate one or two months of the season allow), because is too late for the normal season I add extra artificial light for 2 max 4 weeks than I remove the artificial light and I can harvest them about 10/12 weeks later.
If you do fast like this you compromise yield but you don’t compromise quality or effects contrary to the almost of the people on the web (not Thai people of course) will say
Ideally you can wait longer between 14/18 weeks of flowering you will get a kind of product and from 20 even to 24 another. I think they can flower even more than 26 weeks if the conditions are optimal even maybe 32 weeks .. more you wait more the become gigantic and probably complex (?) on subtle compounds but not very different on THC .. younger plants will have more CBG (uplifting) older ones will have more CBN (sedative)
I choose to make short time because more you wait more you risk problems and from the lab testing that I have been able to run untill now the long time do not really justify the risk
I need to do this extra light for landraces only when I want to make faster, but is not needed when you can transplant before mid November
Wow that is so great knowledge and it explains so much
The first plants I grew in Thailand(seeds sourced locally)
Was planted early in rainy season and one plant grew over 5 meters high
The flowering was amazingly slow and long, unfortunately they had a lot of mold and insect
I will try this practise and take some cuttings from my early plants
Thanks a lot
Do you leave the light on all night or only some hours ?
No need all need just a couple of hours extra for landrace is enough and about 4 / 5 hours extra for hybrids
