(01/02/22) - Unfortunate start of the week for sure...Critical Banana Smoothie was destroyed due to multiple issues with the final straw being bud rot that was starting to take over on the lower branches. It was decided that we should put her down in order to make room for the other plants in the tent. I felt like I've learned a lot from this plant though I wasn't as proactive as I should have been as I was curious to see what would happen. In my opinion this is not a plant for beginners and I'm definitely using what I learned on my future projects to avoid what happen with her. RIP Critical Banana Smoothie. (01/02/22) Both plants were fed Tiger Bloom a heavy feeding of 4 teaspoon per Gallon of water. This will most likely be the last feeding they receive. (01/03/22) - Loupe just came in today so I'm able to look at the trichomes closer! Purple Punch - (01/03/22) Examine the buds with the loupe and notice that some of the Trichomes were cloudy but most of them were clear. I would have to guess from my research I'm about 1 week min to 2 week max before Harvest. Plant will now be only fed Distilled water to begin flushing the plant of chemicals. Buds are looking great and hoping for just a little more growth!(1/06/22) Everything on track just letting her do her thing. (01/07/22) Was able to get some better pictures of the Trichomes, seeing amber on the sugar leaves and cloudiness on the top bud with a few amber in the bud area. Watching the Trichomes more carefully at this point to determine the right time to chop! Gelato - (01/03/22) Examine the buds with the loupe and notice that the Trichomes were clear. I would have to guess I'm about 1 1/2 week min to 3 week max before Harvest. Plant will most likely be only fed Distilled water to begin flushing the plant of chemicals, I will make this decision at the end of the week for her. Buds are looking great and hoping for just a little more growth!(1/06/22) Everything on track just letting her do her thing. (01/07/22) Was able to get some better pictures of the Trichomes, seeing amber on the sugar leaves and cloudiness on the top bud. Wasn't seeing too many amber on the bud itself. I'm definitely not adding anymore chemicals at this point. Watching the Trichomes more carefully at this point to determine the right time to chop!
