Green Gelato (Royal Queen Seeds)

7/12/24 Week 5, everything moving along well, no issues- just coasting toward the finish at this point. - Plant looking healthy and green - Vertical stretch has stopped and no more defoliation needed, just tucking and moving things out of the way at this point. - Good air and light exposure to bud sites, some minor pistil darkening, buds starting to bulk up a bit more - Resin production picking up, plant getting stickier - Smell still pretty subdued, but present - Runoff pH and PPM at 6.0 and 764 - Plant is a bit thirstier and is wanting a slightly lower pH water to keep the medium pH at 6.0 - Feed schedule is still watering every day, 3 days of feed, 1 day of plain water, although I might slip in an extra day of feed now and then depending on what the runoff is showing - Light measuring ~700 PPFD at the plant tops 7/15/24 - Frost development is picking up - Buds continuing to bulk up - Smell growing but still fairly subtle - A couple of leaves at the very bottom of the plant that are out of the light are fading, nothing unexpected or concerning - Medium pH continues to drift up as flower goes on, adjusting water pH down to keep it around 6.0 - Runoff pH and PPM at 6.2 and 756 7/17/24 - Plant starting to get very sticky - Scent picking up, notable notes of pine - Buds bulking up, this should be a good yielder - Despite the aggressive defoliation, it's still a bit thick in the middle- not going to pluck more at this point unless absolutely necessary, but making a note to go even further next time - Continuing with watering every day, 4 days of feed, 1 day of plain water - Runoff pH and PPM at 6.1 and 756, both values are holding pretty steady
