End of week 4.
Nothing major to report, plants are doing OK so far and they seem to have finished stretching now.
Buds are starting to fill in a little now, have been considering whether I want to perform any defoliation or not. Only a couple of bud sites seem to be shaded so I will probably just leave the plants alone. It's kind of nice to just see what happens when the plants are left to do their thing without any human intervention.
Nice plants. I know you may be disappointed by the overall grow and quality for this strain but you haven’t done bad at all IMHO
Plants look healthy but maybe it’s because the pot size is so small for them. Maybe 1 or 3 gal pots would yielded a bigger harvest and give them the ability to develop a better root zone n ward off diseases through increase nutrient uptake n metabolic processes
I’m still excited to see how these turn out as the purple phenols certainly look delicious.
Do all of them have the same smell or are the purple phenos a little different from the rest?

@Wadadli_Kush, Thanks for the comment.
I do agree the pot size is very small but that is part of the challenge for me. Unfortunately I am very short on space so nano grows are pretty much my only option although I may also try a grow with just 1-2 plants and train them heavily to stay low. It's all a learning experience at the moment! My previous (and first ever) grow of Maple Leaf Indica really surprised me because those plants went through hell being defoliated/topped/dried out all during flowering and they still made it to harvest just fine. When I did chop them down the root balls were in remarkably good shape, no sign of any root loss or anything and they were actually in slightly smaller pots than these believe it or not.
With regard to the smell that is actually my least favourite part of this grow so far - the terpene profiles of all of these plants are just completely random there is no consistency whatsoever. Growing the plants all together with direct comparisons it really seems that it's a highly unstable strain. None of the healthy plants smell like lemon/citrus at all, and perhaps the best looking plant (back left) actually smells really horrible - it's just like raw liver/blood.
I will withhold my final judgement until after harvest and drying, but if the terpene profiles of the growing plants are anything to go by I am going to end up with 5 different types of random weed from a grow of a single strain.
Flowers are amazing, and the colors are awesome 😍 excellent job! 👏
Good luck with your growth🍀
