Skywalker and Glue Autos

May 9, 2023 Day 103 Skywalker OG Day 7 Curing Wedding Glue I wonder why this plant is taking so long. It should be a 70 to 80 day strain. She is way overdue for harvest. Speaking of, she has another few days I guess. Amber trichomes are starting to pop up more. I also gave her half a gallon of flawless finish. Just in case she needs more time. I might only do a 24 hour dark period. She'll have to be trimmed back quite a bit before I harvest and hang up. I'll do that the day before I put her in the day of darkness. The entire lower canopy is completely under developed. That may cause her to be taking longer? She seems to be fixing that pretty quickly. Maybe some can be saved. I'm willing to bet it's going to be a very popcorny plant. Lots of larf as well. The buds don't feel very dense either. Depending on the actual harvest and bud structure, this may be a redo. Kinda bummed. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.6° RH: 53.7% VPD: 1.37 kPa May 10, 2023 Skywalker OG Day 8 Curing Wedding Glue I have a hypothesis. She is not ready yet. I wonder if it's due to the super underdeveloped lower canopy. Maybe she is working on that and slowing down her trichomes production? Maybe not? I just want to find a reason why she is taking so long. Other than that, she has a few more amber trichomes and more cloudy. She's getting there, just slower than I was anticipating. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.5° RH: 52.4% VPD: 1.40 kPa May 11, 2023 Skywalker OG Day 9 Curing Wedding Glue She's definitely finished growing. Inner canopy leaves are also getting darker. And buds are getting a little bit tighter. But still popcorn and larf. Oh well. I can tell it will be fire anyway. She is finally getting more amber trichomes. Maybe a few days to really get that ripeness on. Still well over 100 days is a bit of a bummer. I feel like so much extra time, I should have just gone with photos. Still a great structure and beautiful tops. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.3° RH: 51.6% VPD: 1.44 kPa May 12, 2023 Skywalker OG Day 10 Curing Wedding Glue How is this plant still going? Another day or 2? I don't get it. I gave another full gallon flush just in case. She is showing no signs of fade. She's tightening up a bit I think. Well, her orange pistils are dark and shriveling. That's good. Grow System Environment: Temp: 76.5° RH: 51.9% VPD: 1.47 kPa May 13, 2023 Skywalker OG Day 11 Curing Wedding Glue I think it's time to harvest. It's been long enough and she has plenty of cloudy trichomes and very few clear. Some amber and that's that. Tonight I'll put her in the dark tent for 2 days. She seems to be taking in water fairly quickly. So I'm not worried about the moisture content. Hopefully the dark period will kick start trichome ripening. Grow System Environment: Temp: 76.4° RH: 53.7% VPD: 1.41 kPa May 14, 2023 Skywalker OG Day 12 Curing Wedding Glue Today is the last day of flushing. I decided to do one more while she is still finishing up. I'll be harvesting at the end of this week no matter what. I have 2 more plants coming in the tent in a couple days and I need the space. Her trichomes are all the same. Mostly cloudy and very few amber. Just a few more days for more amber. Grow System Environment: Temp: 76.1° RH: 52.8% VPD: 1.43 kPa May 15, 2023 Skywalker OG Day 13 Curing Wedding Glue Today is her last day. She has enough amber trichomes and very little clear. So it will be a bit of a day. She absolutely needs to be defoliated today so she can go in the dark tent tonight. She has really small leaves all throughout. I'll only be pulling leaves with seems I can easily access. That way, I won't go overboard. She'll also be joined by a Gelat.OG auto from the perpetual grow I have going on. Just happened that the Gelato actually finished on time. Hahaha. This way, they both get harvested at the same time. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.6° RH: 53.6% VPD: 1.29 kPa
