Plants are on cruise control at this point and I'm counting down the days till it can be harvested. I have stopped the co2 and allowing the bud to ripen, I'll start checking trichomes this week to see the progress.
@JamMAKEcan, this is the hardest part for me because my training isn't consistent and leads to low yields. Just trying to stay consistent during this stage with good practices.
Hey, friend looking good! Keep up the good work. I would suggest slowly dialing your lights on temps down as you proceed through flower. We can make our buds a little on the airy side and less dense if our temps get too high over 80 even with c02 enrichment. 77-79 MAX lights on seems to be best for this. Also now that your plants have finished their vertical growth you can keep on opening up that temp gap between lights on and off to signal your plants to put more energy into the budding process and resin production. After they finish their vertical growth by weeks 4-6 of flower we want to begin to do this. It helps get a much nicer more dense, Caked finish on our cannabis. It helps trigger the genetic responses in the plant by simulating the ending of the season. Doing light deprivation in the last 2 weeks & very cold feed temps in the last week can really help as well.
If you do not have a PAR meter & a thermal laser temp gun like the fluke 62 MAX I would recommend getting those too. They will really help you get the most potential out of your lights onto your plants & helps us grow to our plant's needs more efficiently. Keep up the great work friend & if you ever have any questions or need any help just ask! Check out my 200 light 7,000 plant diary I finished off and put up some dry finished shots of to see what I mean about getting a nice finish on our product. Happy growing!
