End of week 6.
This week has not been so good, 4/5 of the plants are still doing OK but the shorter plant in the middle with the mutated leaves developed some bud rot in the main cola so I had to chop the top off. The humidity has been around 50-55% which should be fine but I think that mutated plant just has really weak and strange genetics which made it susceptible to disease. So far I have to say this grow has been quite a disappointment, the quality and consistency of this strain is just not there.
Hopefully they will finish up in the next 1-2 weeks and I can move on to something else.
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🍀
