They've stretched through the net a fair bit , all different heights.
Defoliated reasonably hard on day 20 .
Started sugar royal at half dose this week.
Will start green sensation also from plagron from week 4 as recommended.
Nice looking plants brother, I would not recommend taking any fan leaves this early in growth, as they are essentially solar panels that power the growth of your plants to include their root system. Just my opinion, best luck the rest of the way for a strong and fast grow 💪!
How did you do trying to determine what week to harvest them? were they differnet for each strian or did you round them all off at the same time and harvest then?
@ToxicTerps, yes I took them all at the same day , the maltezerz had gone a little to far really with mostly amber trichomes and decay on the leaves and even leaf stems ,, I think any longer and bud/ stem root would have set in .
I like my indica leaning plants to have mostly amber trichomes.
I like my sativa to have cloudy trichomes
This is just my personal preference as I self medicated for severe crohn's disease and I'm neurodivergent,
that way I have meds that keep me focused and from becoming overwhelmed and meds that help with pain , appetite and sleep.
As for the flush I wait until the plants are close with mainly cloudy trichomes on the buds then I feed just plain water at ph 6.0 -6.2 with no run off until the EC is really low , by this point the remaining leaves in the plant go through senescence, I wait until this is showing close to the buds , at this point I chop them and dry at 60% humidity with the temps as low as possible , normally between 14-21 days untill teady to trim and store, I find this the best for flavour , bud texture and smoothness of your vape or smoke .
I currently have a few packs I'm leaving in a cupboard to check at 6 month intervals at 6 months the bud is still really nice slight flavour change and better high .
I'm at 9 months so will check the next pack at 12 months then the last one next summer .
Wow 😁 I'm high and rambling 🤙 hope you have a great day
@ToxicTerps,
I waited for signs the plants were ripe , the calyxes were swollen , pistils had stopped growing trichomes were cloudy/amber on the buds not just leaves and the plants had slowed right down barely taking water at the end , after 25 years you get to know when there done and going to mould if you persist 🤙
