Jack 47 XL

Day 78: Looks like this will be her last week. The trichomes are all cloudy now. I don't see any amber. The buds continue to grow and throw out white pistils, but fewer than before. The leaves are turning more purple and fading. Her colors are very beautiful to look at. The smell is still weak, but it is slightly stronger than before. I fed her 2L of water with nutrients again today. She seems to be drinking a little more slowly. Day 80: The purple on the leaves looks gorgeous! The buds even seem to be coloring. I see amber trichomes too, maybe 5%. I didn't see them with my lupe, but I saw them with my mini microscope. So, I would be happy to harvest her, but at the same time she is now throwing our more white pistils than before. My partner loves this plant. She says that it smells good. It is definitely a pleasant and non-overwhelming aroma. She doesn't usually like the smell of plants and often complains about it, so this is a plus. Day 80: 2nd update. I examined her closely and found a nanner. There were a couple other spots that looked suspicious too, like a nanner might pop out. I think the nanner and the new white pistils are the plant's last effort before dying. I looked over the buds more with the microscope and the amber looks like 5-10%, so I'm going to harvest her tomorrow. I switched off the light now before I go to sleep, to give her a little darkness before I chop and hang her tomorrow on Day 81. The next update will take a bit since it's the harvest. Luckily the temperatures here are dropping slightly and it looks like the temps won't go over 30C outside.
