23 Dutch Gelato

Oct 5: still going. The buds are a bit bigger and the weather is good enough for another couple weeks. I’m still skeptical this sativa pheno will finish in time, but we’ll see. Oct 6: removed some larger fan leaves that were shading bud sites. Weather is better than expected so she might still make it. Cheese and Bruce both turned purple with the low temps but this one is still green. This is surprising based based on other diaries for this strain. Added SCROG net for spacing and support. Using water bottles tied to the net to gently open it up while still having some ‘give’ for wind gusts. I probably should have done this sooner, but after seeing her really leaning into the lower to the horizon fall sun, I finally got some SCROG net going. Oct 7: smell is more noticeable now and she’s putting on weight. Oct 11: slowly progressing and weather is good for next two weeks.
