Purple Queen - Eighth Farm

Hello Diary. It’s been the last week of growing Purple Queen on my little farm. Certainly one of the most beautiful and certainly the most smelling plant that have grown on my Farm. The leaves began to turn yellow with purple hues on the tips of the leaves that are close to the flowers, most of the trichomes are milky and here and there some brown. So both visually and physically, the plant is ready for harvest. 65th day since the first day of vegetation, a total of 74 days since she sprouted along with her two roommates Do Si Dos. The last week passed in anticipation, every two days I took samples from the flowers and looked under a microscope even though it was visible that she was ready. I did it more because of Do Si Dos for which I was not sure if they would be ready. The last watering was 5 days before harvest so she drank all the water available to her. This will speed up the drying process. For the first time I am drying the plants in a herb dryer sent to me by friends from RQS, which will help me a lot in drying. The dimensions are ideal for my needs, in my 120 cm X 60 cm grow box, two dryers fit next to each other. The conditions on the farm are more than excellent, the humidity is about 40% while the temperature is about 25 degrees. Here's how it looked last week. 30/10/2021 - Day 58. Watering. As in the last 10 days, the watering is with clean water. I only regulate p.H at 6.3. With 7 liters of water, I water all three plants on the farm evenly. Temp / Humidity on the farm - 25.1 degrees and 38% humidity. 02/11/2021 - Day 61. The last watering. p.H I lowered to 6.2 and now 7 liters of water I watered all three plants. Temp / Humidity on the farm - 26 degrees and 41% humidity. 06/11/2021 - Day 65. Harvest. After the last photo shoot, I removed all the larger leaves so I have less to do with trimming after drying. I cut branch by branch and put it in a herb dryer which I put in a grow box, turned off the lights and left to dry. Since the whole plant does not dry out in one piece, I believe it will be ready for trimming in about 10 days. That’s all as far as my experience with growing Purple Queen is concerned, with no problems in these 9 weeks. Now the most important part remains, and that is the quality of the smoke :). Given the appearance of the flowers and especially the smell, I am really looking forward to that testing. See you soon.
