QG you must have missed the latter part of last week.

I don't know if Canadians are more easy going than other people or if it's just that our country is so rural and less populated areas are less stressful. I live in a town of 10,000 and when I go to the nearest big city an hour away (population almost 100,000) all the drivers are less courteous. Our demographics are close to the US, we watch the same TV and we have the same president, but people think of Yanks as more aggressive. Canadians have more guns per capita than the US, but ours are longer barreled and will shoot less bullets per second.

Oh, I noticed your dust up with Raiderman, I just figured you had run out of KM. Re the famous Canadian mellowness: I think there is more to it than population density. I live in an area with less people than you do (and more guns, probably). We have more evangelical churches though, and "we can see Russia from our house", so maybe that's it.

"I think there is more to it than population density."

I think it's the cold, every country in the far north is very pacifistic.

I wanted to post some pictures of Kali Mist grown Crop Circle Of Bud, even someone with the smallest of areas can grow a tall sativa hybrid like KM. This one is 6.25" to the top of those little colas but they could be bent horizontal if needed, the main colas are about 4" above the bucket rim. I'll probably only get around 4 cups of cured bud off this one.

The small KM from above is to the right, the Kali Mist on the left is going to be spectacular. Tallest cola about 12" now, stem 54", 4 or 5 weeks into flower. I'm expecting 12+ cups of cured bud from this beauty.

Thanks man, Kali Mist is like gold I hope to grow some soon. I always enjoy your smoke/ strain reports.

Thanks NG!

I'm harvesting the large Kali Mist in the morning, 91 days (13 weeks) of flower, down from 18 weeks in soilless my first grow. Different growing style, Fox Farm Solubles, and keeping the plant healthier. I'm chopping in the morning and will hang/bag/jar for as long as possible before getting into the bud.

It smells heavenly. Spice, not a bit of marijuana. An iced whitish green hue with the green of the buds reflecting through the cloudy trichomes. The harvest window was fast, it seemed to go from clear to 1/3 amber within a few days. Very, very easy plant to grow, tolerant of grower mistakes - letting it wilt, drowning it, that kind of thing. Big producer, this plant should give 3+ liters of cured bud, could be grown in 16" x 16" and is 14" tall at the highest cola. The tallest colas themselves are 18", 19" & 24" but they're bent horizontal part way up the colas. Kali Mist has always been a big producer for me, of the kindest possible bud.



This is a single stem plant (not topped), the cola on the left is the main stem cola. The taller colas on the right are from the base of the plant, those branches always get the advantage with CCOB grows, the become the main colas.



I used a metal tomato cage ring to keep the branches up and the center hollow (no mold) I hadn't gotten into branch/cola training when I put this in flower and the colas were going every where, blocking each other. The tomato cage solved the problem, they all got relatively equal light.



I curled the taller colas in towards the open center to lower the height and to get more light on the sides of the colas, now horizontal.



A really nice view, the colas are dense and crusty.

Wow, very nice report, I just tried kali mist for the first time from my friend and I have almost the same things to say about ti smoke-wise. I really love the smell, its so unique and zesty, hard to explain, and smokes sooooo smooooth. I dunno if it was how long my friend cured it for, or that we went out of a bong, but this shit was just the most enjoyable smoke ive ever had. and of course, the high was just awesome.

You have any close up bud-shots of it Hobbes?

.

No close ups NG, I've tried some and I'm just horrible at close up pictures. I've never taken one that's clear.
