Welcome to my Pink Rozay X Strawberry Banana Auto Diary sponsored by Original Sensible Seeds.
Days 78-82
Finally ripening is just about up for this lady.
Triton burnt most of the sugar leafs. Used way too much to often at a stage where just was exhausted. But I thought I'd get away with a once off high feed. And well, it didn't really work out. Should of just kept my doses the same. It's just, I pult everything else. And added extra triton to bring the ppm up to its usually resin/thc enhancers dose strength.
So, no no on that one again.
Have adjusted my tap. Is very high atm. Using organic PH -.
DAYS 82-84 so had my tasters. About 12g in total I had. Was very very nice. Bit planty tasting but was cut straight from a feeding plant. Took days to quick dry. At 18c and 52% RH. Still took 6 days to dry. At about 80% cloudiness. Very stoney. Tastes very sweet. And can get a fresh smell of banana. Maybe that'll turn to ripened banana. No smell of strawberries yet but, It's very sweet. So I know its there. Just needs to be dried properly.
D85.
So, she's been under the light at 70cm and In the corner. She will be mostly dried under light. At a lower ppfd. And then, before she starts to stress for water. Which should be any day, as I've lifted her out of the pot and she has a very very light dampness left when i put my finger through the middle. So, am going to put her in my dark room tonight for 24-36hrs. (I know ppl have there own opinions on a dark rest. But, I like it. And I'll pull her then, (roots and all) will bag them if I have to if I can't shake loose the soil.
Day 86. Nearly 80% cloudy. On the last 2 main fan leafs on main cola. Some fade appearing. So maybe I should leave for another few days. From the few testers I did take. I was couch locked all 3 nights I smoked.
She is 60-40 in indicas favour. She smells absolutely amazing. Very sweet with a ripe smell of banana, "now". Also a little musky. Which compliments the sweet/ripe scents very well. Very very smooth to smoke. Lovely taste, although there is a light planty taste, (this is no doubt down to be chopping bits off her, she takes her time maturing. But id no issues waiting. And my 15-18g in testers held me over. And she still has a lot of mass left. So, should hit my old average of 70+g.
Thanks to my sponsors who have been off great help helping me produce should nice smelling bud. I've already stripped a few buds of for tasting. She's just been on water the past few days. And will be kept so. Buds have gotten nice and hard. She's at 75-80% cloudy and 30%+ ambers. Few more days. She'll get 1 more 800ml water feed. And after that fully dries out and before she starts stressing for water. I'll be pulling her up by the roots.
This usually helps with the drying process and helps shorten the curing.
This will be her last week of Flowering/Ripening process. She's so close. Buds are hard and of gotten as big as they gonna. Was just waiting for them to harden up.
Big shout out to my sponsors from MarsHydro and Original Sensible Seeds. Thanks and fair well to my rep from mars hydro and big hello and welcome myself and I'm looking forward to working with her.
@gottagrowsometime, I'm going to start out running them on the same schedule as my main light. I have a few lights with this same color leds built into them and I've never had problems with them
Very impressive and inspiring grow! I have tons to learn and I appreciate the assistance you have given. I'll be following along and to learn and see the magic :-)
@MedicineMaker, thanks for dropping by.. Will be applying a lot more defoliation as leaf-calyx ratio is too high for colas to become super dense. But, hopefully she'll harden up. Think she has about 2 weeks left. Let's see. Thanks for stopping by. And your welcome. Feel free to DM me anytime.
@Cyrusdavirus, cheers buddy. Wish I'd put more work in on the defoliation but happy enough with it. Given it another 2 weeks it or so still lost it clears trich wise.
