04.28.23 - Start of Week 14
Flower - Week 8 - Flush
Pollination - Week 6
All proceeding as planned. Pulling out some hard and big seeds from these girls, and seeing lots of nicely formed buds as well. Many of the seeds are starting to show themselves, but not a lot so if juding "readiness to harvest for seeds" based on the seeds bursting from their sacs, they could used more time. Stopped all nutrients and started flushing with water only as we're definitely in the harvest window - trichromes are cloudy in most plants and easily past the clear stage.
AK-47. Typical flowering time - 7 - 9 weeks. Most trichromes are milky, possibly and amber one or two. Pistils turned brown long ago.
Girl Scout Cookies. Typical flowering time - 9 - 10 weeks. Buds are undeveloped and trichromes are clear, it appears that most buds have seeds. The underdevelopment is likely because this plant was probably the first out of the gate with pollen sacs and is the main culprit or "pollinator", and has spent most of its time focused on seed production. Not expecting strong pot out of this girl, but looking forward to trying.
Sour Diesel. Typical flowering time - 9 - 10 weeks. Buds well developed and starting to weigh down some of the limbs. Some trichromes are getting amber so this one is maturing faster than expected.
Bubble Gum. Typical flowering time - 8 - 9 weeks. Ditto - well developed and weighty dense buds with even more amber trichromes. This one's ready.
