Pic 2: Downward angle of Mango #1 top half of plant. Notice the huge difference between this one and the other 2 Mango's
Pic 3: Mango #1. This is a close up of the main stalk. It looks like this all the way up and down the 5 foot main stalk. Mango #2 in the background.
Pic 4: Thai Stick #1 in the front and topped Thai Stick #2 in the back. These plants are huge. Each is at least 6 feet tall and has HUGE long broad leaves. Basically it looks like a pot plant from "Giant Land." Strangely, neither of these have started blooming yet. I'm thinking the Thai influence is probably to blame here. This strain is supposed to be a mix of the original Thai genetics from the 70's and an original skunk strain from back in the day (maybe #1?). They are definitely not showing any male pre-flowers and they seem to have long strange-looking hairs growing out of the stalk where the female pre-flowers are supposed to be. The untopped one (TS#1) is starting to grow shoots in a zig zag pattern, which usually indicates flowering. I'd say that by the end of this month, i'll be able to accurately sex these plants.
Pic 5: This is TS #2, the topped one. It has grown very large since i topped it. This plant was the worst looking of the topped plants 3 weeks after i topped them, but it has come back very nicely.
