Half-way to Harvest Week!
The girls continue to cover themselves in trichomes and extra leaf... and I mean extra. I continue to remove big fan leaves that are covering bud sites but they continue to come back... kinda like when there is a deer fly buzzing around your head, you kill it, and BAM!... it's back! 😲
Encountering some leaf damage due to wind... aka fan on too high... and those damn aphids. I thought I had got rid of them (they never go away), but they are back... 😡
Because this is the 5th week of flower, I can only contain them without hurting the buds. I mix 1 Tbsp (15ml) of 3% peroxide with 1 cup (250 ml) water, and using a fine mister, I give a good misting to the under part of the leaf while trying to protect the buds the best I can...💪 I had to do this once before and it got me to harvest with no damage... but I did wash the buds before drying to clean off aphid shit and stuff...
There is not much difference in the phenos... both seem to stay shorter then expected, both are very bushy with lots of trichomes, and both are starting to have a grapefruit/pineapple smell... Reminds me of their parent strain Cinderella 99!😍
The temps have been going up this week, but so far it doesn't seem to bother the girls... but might have to dim the lights if it gets to carried away... like in the 30 C range... have to watch the humidity as well, that's starting to sit in the mid 60's%
Only watered twice this week, the first was 3L of water and the second watering was 4L. The sexbuds are wanting more per watering now, which is a great sign! 👌 Next week, I'll do another blackstrap molasses mixture.
This will probably be the last week I can get in the room to move them around to take pics... they're are just getting to big, bushy and heavy for that silliness... 😂 This is where the scope pics come into play.
Overall... great week, great smell, great aphids... 😳
