Tarantula Genetics Strawberry Dreams

Plant grew so much vertically each day that I was forced to LST the top of this SD female. I still believe that there will be at least 5" of preflower stretch in these next few days. I will try to tie and work tops so that they don't hit the light as I've run out of height to raise it. Now, as we start flowering hours, you can see the 70/30 Sativa dominance...old girl is 1.5 months younger than the male Indica next to it and dwarfs everything(including me!) In room!! Makes it hard to feed/maintain let alone take photographs...makes me bend weird and kills the arthritis in my back:'( Anyways, this plant will get pollinated in attempt to massage more indica traits into genepool...not much fan of wasted node space, stretchy sativas. However, to this plants defense, it is extremely vigorous and an absolute pig on nutrients! I could see commercial implications already for this strain...almost feels "designer" as it responds favorably to things like Molasses, eggshells, neem oil(fungus gnat population zero now!), flavorings/extracts. It may be a placebo effect but if you were here you would see what I'm talking about! I've never smelled pot that doesn't have pot smells to it. This plant smells like those juicy strawberry candies on a hot day! No stink!! Its weird but as we're now in flowering, I wonder how much Nitrogen she will still need all the way until last couple weeks (~20/21 weeks) especially trying to get viable seeds but still smokable buds. Those and I wanted to point out the value of Far Red/IR & UVa, it may seem anecdotal but as weeks fly by, responses are visual and justifyable. Even other plants in room are responding in their own ways to these spectrums of light.
