Indicas with 12+ Weeks of Flowering

Dr.King · Aug 9, 2013

Hello and good evening. I have been searching around for Indicas that have a flowering time of 12 weeks or more. I know most Indicas finish within 8-10 weeks but I haven't found any that take longer than 12+ weeks such as a Sativa. Does anyone know of any good Indicas that can be grown along with pure Sativas? Total time differences from Indicas and Sativas is 4-8 weeks. Would it be best to harvest a 10 week Indica then for the finally 6 weeks of the Sativa to continue filling out the missing spot? In that 6 weeks will the Sativa really fill in a 2x3 ft square in a SCORG system? Since a Sativa takes 20+ weeks of total growth should I use bigger smart pots than the normal 5 gallon ones? I have seen people using 20 gallon pots. Figured the pros at Rollitup will know for sure. Anything else special I should know about Sativas? I've heard Sativas like full spectrum lights more. Planing to add supplemental LED lighting this grow. Hopefully someone will come through with a long flowering Indica though =D.

Sativa will be either Aces Golden Tiger, Aces Malawi Or Aces Lao Sativa. Have yet to hear much about the Lao Sativa. Any reports would be helpful, presh. Be safe and live life.

I've just grown a haze cross I made, it's on day 102 now, it didn't even really start flowering before day 50 and started packing weight on around day 75ish, I reckon its got about two weeks left.

If what u need to know is if you can flower a indica and a sativa at the same time, the likely hood is that the indica will finish before the sativa even starts flowering if u pick the right cross.

i grow a mix of plants all the time, yes my Canopys not perfectly flat but with HID its not much of a issue, I usually shove my long flowerers in a corner at the back. I have separate veg so it's easier.

ive never seen landrace indicas flower for more than 12 weeks, most sativa hybrids don't even take that long.

How long u vegging, cos ideally u Wanna veg the indica for a while and the sativa I'd prob shove straight into flower after a week or two, so starting both at the same time, you'll either end up with a little indica or a massive sativa, whatever way u choose.

i don't really like autos, but I've seen people grow them under 12 hours light along with their sativas, so they have some bud before the sativa finishes. But they don't yield great under 12 hours, but it fills a space.

if u still wanna flower two and have one early, I'd prob pick a super stretchy quick finishing sativa hybrid and run it with the Lao Sativa, the hybrid will finish around day 60 and the Laos will prob just be in the first couple weeks of budding. And start them in 12/12 after a week or two.

But my experience with sativas is minimal, this haze I have would prob be about 15 ft tall, It's been topped about 10 times and around day 40 just before it stopped stretching, I basically cut the plant in half and it finished at around 5 ft and serious amounts of bud for its size pot. It's been alive 120 days in a 3 litre pot, that's not even 1 gallon, never shown signs of root bound but I have been pumping the bitch with enzymes all through flower, she's rather yellow now too, lol.

also if u find the plant not finishing, just start dropping the hours of light by half hour every few days, I've also seen people put their plants out in the sun to finish them but dunno if this is true.

good luck bro, soz I'm not much help, but there's mad dudes on here growing pure sativas so they can help more.

As ur scrogging too, I'd go for the biggest pot u can, u can keep the plant under control in a scrog easier and it will fill that screen up easily I would have thought.

Thanks for the reply. Defiantly love HIDs myself as well. Seems like the biggest problem is lighting schedule. I usually veg my Indicas in my Scrog system for a good 4-6 weeks. I couldn't image growing a Sativa along with it that had vegged for 4-6 weeks. That would turn out crazy big even with topping and LST right? I know it depends on the space you have also. Veg both for 3 weeks then? Seems like the Indica would turn out with little yield.

Any advice welcome, thanks. Be safe and live life everyone.
