~ 9th week ~
Plants mature - some faster, some slower, but it happens.
Both Cinderellas look very interesting - the side branches match the length up to the top, so that the plants look like birds with outstretched wings for flight.
CJ#1 is more developed than CJ#2 as it flowered much earlier. But CJ#2 catches up to her quickly.
Both have plenty of dense buds.
Smells like in exotic garden. No wonder - so it is :)
Indeed, she can take another week or so, maybe 1,5 max. A tip to do now is take away the big leaves, so the light can shine through the bottom parts of the plant as well, making those buds harder and more potent. Keep it up and enjoy your harvest soon! ๐
@DutchPassion_Official,
Thanks a lot for your attention, comment and valuable tip - i'll certainly apply it today :)
Greetings and all the best!
P.S. And in general - thanks for all your activity!
This is really fantastic looking. Nice job on the train and trim, the overhead view looks so round and uniform. Those colas are huge with lots of sugar. And the high contrast photography is killer. Congrats and keep up the good work.
@@resimax,
That's cool!
No problemo - you're welcomed :)
Ah, and back to photography - a tripod is often useful. Especially with long exposure times.
Greetings!
@amadeo, that was very interesting, and aligns somewhat with another hobby of mine, where I have to actually do the math to calculate the specular highlight contributions of digital imagery. It can look very wrong very quick, even when correct. Sometimes we have to cheat a little :) Thanks so much for the detailed response!
Thanks again @@resimax,
Yes, i think you're right - the genetics are certainly exquisite, and my new lamps really exceed my expectations :)
Regarding photography - sure, i can reveal a secret:
Firstly - as in the case of cultivation, it is largely thanks to good equipment and conditions. In my case it is the good old and popular Nikon p500. And the conditions must be created - by hanging a dark material (canvas) in the room (studio) - preferably black, because it eliminates undesirable shadows created during the flash. It is also necessary to provide adequate (good) lighting (i mean ordinary lamps) so that the details can be clearly seen. Cause the best shots come out without flash at all. Flash causes light reflections and flattens perspective. Personally, i use flash quite rarely - only sometimes to emphasize the trichomes (if any).
Secondly - playing with aperture and shutter speed. In my case, it's more experimentation and improvisation, because i'm not a professional and often i don't know what effect i'll get. It's just - when i get high, i snap pictures until the battery runs out, then watch them on the computer and choose the best ones (every tenth more or less) to publish here in my diaries.
Oh, and the whole secret. All the best!
Ah this is the one with the shape that I loved last week, and looks even better this week. Those colas look pretty large and frosty, too. Good work so far. Looking forward to the harvest.
Hi & thanks @@resimax!
Yup - CJ#1's main central cola is the size of a pint beer can.
CJ#2 is not that developed yet, but it will be as good soon :)
All the best!
