Nueva Caledonia Regular by Ace Seeds – 100% Sativa Landrace with Tropical Terpenes & Euphoric High

Nueva Caledonia Regular by Ace Seeds is a pure sativa landrace that delivers euphoric, psychedelic clarity with every puff — a rare genetic gem from the remote Pacific island of New Caledonia, reborn for modern growers.

Worried your sativa will fizzle out before flowering or collapse under its own stretch? You’re not alone. Many growers hesitate to tackle tall, long-flowering sativas, fearing wasted space, weak yields, or mold disasters.

That fear keeps you stuck with the same compact hybrids — missing out on the true cerebral rush and creative spark only a pure sativa can deliver. You end up settling for less potency, less aroma, less magic.

With Nueva Caledonia Regular, you’re not just planting seeds — you’re unlocking a decades-refined landrace built for resilience and explosive flavor. This is your shortcut to mastering sativa cultivation: tall but tough, long-flowering but worth the wait, potent but never overwhelming.

What to Expect in the First Few Weeks

At first, Nueva Caledonia shoots up fast — like a tropical vine with slender stems and narrow leaves. Don’t panic if it outgrows your tent early; that’s normal. You’ll see rapid vertical growth within the first 10–14 days, especially under strong light. The key is early training: gentle low-stress techniques help manage height and boost lateral branching. Watch for pre-flowers around week 4 to confirm sex, and expect a massive stretch once flowering kicks in.

Common Mistakes and How to Fix Them

• Waiting too long to train — start LST in week 2 to control height.
• Over-fertilizing in veg — use soft NPK to avoid nutrient burn.
• Ignoring humidity drops — maintain 50–60% RH to prevent stress.
• Pruning too aggressively — stick to light topping; avoid FIM on sativas.
• Harvesting too early — wait for milky-to-amber trichomes for full effect.

How to Dial In Your Perfect Grow

1. Start with a 3 L pot and upgrade to 20 L before flowering.
2. Switch to 12/12 after 15 days of veg or when 30 cm (11.81 in) tall.
3. Use a MYCOPLANT inoculant at transplant to strengthen roots.
4. In week 3 of flowering, increase PK gently for denser buds.
5. Monitor trichomes weekly; harvest when mostly milky with amber hints.
6. Train with SCROG to maximize light exposure on lateral branches.
7. Flush 10–14 days before harvest for a smoother smoke.

Why Growing This Way Pays Off

• Full control over plant shape and yield.
• Stronger resistance to pests and mold.
• Better resin production and terpene retention.
• Higher THC and CBD expression when grown optimally.
• More confidence with future sativa projects.
• Deeper connection to landrace genetics and growing craft.

How to Grow Nueva Caledonia Regular Seeds

Perfect for outdoor Mediterranean or tropical climates, this sativa thrives with sun, space, and smart training.

Quick overview: Photoperiod regular · Ace Seeds · 13–14 week flower · medium difficulty · best outdoors or in large indoor spaces.

Safe start: Germinate in darkness at 22–25 °C. Transplant carefully when the taproot is 1–2 cm long. For faster rooting, Radical Root (Growing) boosts early vigor.

Directed growth: Use 18/6 light cycle. Keep pH 6.0–6.5 (soil) or 5.8–6.2 (coco). Train early with LST or MYCOPLANT to enhance root resilience and nutrient uptake.

Flowering by stages: Expect massive stretch in pre-flower. Reduce RH to 40–50%. In week 3, add a bloom booster like HESI Bloom Complex for Soil to support dense bud development.

Harvest and refinement: Harvest when trichomes turn milky with amber hints. Flush 10–14 days prior. Dry at 18–22 °C and 50–60% RH, then cure for 2–4 weeks to elevate flavor.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take to master growing Nueva Caledonia?

Most growers feel confident by their second grow — once they learn to manage stretch and timing. The first harvest teaches you everything.

How do I know if I’m overwatering?

Drooping, yellowing leaves early on are a sign. Let the top 2–3 cm (0.79–1.18 in) of soil dry between waterings, especially in early veg.

What if my plant gets too tall indoors?

Use SCROG or LST to bend and tie branches horizontally. This keeps height manageable and exposes more bud sites to light.

Can I grow this in a cooler climate?

It prefers warmth and long summers. If you’re north of 43º latitude, consider a greenhouse or indoor setup to ensure a full finish.

Personal Experience of Pevgrow’s CEO (Alan)

My first Nueva Caledonia almost touched my garage ceiling — I’d underestimated the stretch. I let it go wild, no training, and ended up with one massive cola and a jungle underneath. Yield was okay, but I wasted so much light. The second time, I used a SCROG net and topped it once at 5 nodes. That small change doubled my harvest and made drying way easier. The high? Pure, sharp, and uplifting — no anxiety, just creative flow. It’s the kind of sativa that makes you want to paint, write, or hike at 6 a.m. I keep coming back because it’s real — not bred for Instagram, but for experience.
