πFading has taken hold and the leaves aslo show signs that I didnt do enough low EC irrigations (burnt tips). In the run-off EC spikes quickly but the pH remains stable. The plant has been a lime yellow shade of green most of the grow, and now the tint is turning more yellow. The plant looks like I have defoliated it, but I haven't. I have only taken lower leaves as they faded. The cooler outdoors temps have meant lower tent temperatures both lights on and off. I added supports to the legs of the stand and ran a string around to connect them all. This is to help keep the plant from tilling over if I get clumsy, and also draw in some of the lower branches to keep them from rubbing the wall of the tent as I rotate the plant daily.
πThe coming week I will switch to the week 9 mid bloom mix recipe from the GH drain to waist schedule for the Flora series nutrients. The plants pistols have started turning red and its is probably about 5 days ahead in flowering than Ive been documenting. Not big deal. But the plant is obviously a little more mature than its tent mate (Strawberry Banana). If time permits I will begin using my usb microscope to do trichome hunting to inspect the trichome maturity
Really nice photos!
Thanks a bunch for growing our genetics, and sharing this diary with us :)
We hope that it was a nice experience, and that you enjoy the harvest!
Have a good one
