Hello and thank you for taking the time to read these elucubrations.
This is a good example of why i only grow 1 strain ; the plant on the left has clearly the pine cone buds from the og, along with a structure inherited from the critical and with bubba leaves in veg. So it'd be safe to say that she has a kush phenotype then.
While the other one has a cookie structure, trichome coverage and yield... But although they are sisters, she should be by 1 week faster than the kushy one and, furthermore, both have different nutritional needs inherited from their ancestors, it's really obvious with them.
The kush craves for Ca and the cookie is Ca and N sensitive.
Hence the slight iron def on the right but there is not much that i can do about it, and i couldn't have dropped the calcium earlier because of the kushy plant.
About the plants, i cut off a few leaves 2 days ago. I also tried to avoid leaves with trichomes on it. And they are extra sticky. To the point that i had the "trimmer's nails" - if it makes any sense - after just defoliating them. This strain is definitely a resin producer.
The plant on the left may be a small yielder but she might compensate it for extractions, even the petiole are smokable material - cf the picture. I don't think i ever saw that but i also tend to forget how old my plants are.
(she somewhat remind me of a "the white x 88 g13 hp" that i grew years ago)
I'm happily surprised by the smell! The kushy one smells like skunk, hash, cream and mint while her sis has a pungent citric smell along with cream, kush and gas. The kushy one was even smelling like cheese the other day.
I'm gonna mostly top my reservoir with ro water until the harvest in more or less 3 weeks. I think that this way, the senescence should be fine on the left, and i'm not so sure about the other one buf if it ends up in extraction anyway...
See you next week!
@Testefumate, Thanks mate, no it's low pressure aeroponic, i think It's slightly faster for veg and uses less water than most dwc systems. Plus, flat surfaces for an easy cleaning. And it's cheap!
I'll post pictures of the roots at the harvest
