Even though Blue Dream is by far my personal favorite, genetics does not appear to be consistent (I'm guessing that's somewhat normal with hybrids). One is clearly sativa with long skinny leaves, and two others are more indica. The sativa stretched 100% with long nodes and a f#$k ton of thick bud with few leaves in between, the other two were more tightly packed with lots of sugar leaves between buds (stretch was about 75%). The sativa had a hard time with spider mites. Nirvana suggests a flower time of 7-9 weeks. To me this looks more like the opening window - as to when it would first be ready. An indica was milk ripe at Flower 65, but no signs of amber domes. I'm letting the other two go longer than this.

It got the job done with no problems (I don't have another flower specific one to compare it to). It was already acidified which kept me from using as much pH down.

About the harvest in general. All three are on the last phase of jar cure. I can't tell taste well, but from smell, they all seem to have a earthy-caramel-cheese smell, but the provolone is the strongest. 09.23 The last sativa was processed, mere 10ths away from 200g. 09.21 2nd indica processed. Total weight 166.2g 09.20 09.19 1st indica main colas processed, trimmer works a lot easier to keep the resin where it belongs. Total weight 131g 09.18 09.17 The sativa harvested, 5 big colas, and a ton of mid. Had an on going battle with mites - so I'm not keeping trim on this one. 1st indica was de-stemmed by hand, the gloves were coated - will go back to trimmers. Weighed and jarred with a 62% humidipack. 09.16 09.15 The first harvested indica is almost dry enough to go to the 2nd stage of cure - the mason jar. 09.14 Gal water ph 6.40 The drying bud is really starting to stink up the tent - a fruity smell, but couldn't tell you which. 09.13 Harvested the 2nd indica. Some mites, decided not to keep any trim, just down to the immature mini buds. Some weak stems, several decent thick colas. A lot of mid. 09.12 Sampled the lowest bud in the trim pile, even that is potent. Of course it still tastes like "Forest Meadow Cow Pasture" so I'm not commenting on taste for awhile, but the high is excellent once you get past it. 09.11 Gal pH 6.4 09.10 The first indica dominant plant was harvested at Flower 65 Day 125. From macro shots, it appeared 100% opaque with >1% amber. Three thick colas of considerable weight, several medium ones and a shelf's worth of lightweight 'mids'. The other two are experiencing fainting, this is usually due to calcium depletion. Many of the largest colas are now suspended by tie-rope ratchet. There is plenty of it in hard water, raising pH to above 6.2 in subsequent watering.

Nirvana has just found new photo representatives for their Blue Dream strain. You grow like a pro, bro. 😀👍👊💪

Haha thank you - this particular phenotype doesn't produce near as many sugar leaves, actually doubled in height (the others were about 75%), and the bud sites are quite large, but the flip side is the spider mites love this one in particular. The other two are still thick on some colas, but not consistently like this one. It will be interesting to see how its THC-CBN compares when cured.
