I decided to harvest because it’s been very hot and it was fox-tailing and the trichomes were cloudy with some amber. If you didn’t follow along, this plant was not fertilized and I used well prepared soil that I grew my tomatoes in last year. The soil had sticks, leaves and grass composting for 1 year and read as a perfect 7.0 ph. The plant exhibited only minor deficiencies with a little spotting on some leaves. I tackled white powdery mildew fast and discovered a fat caterpillar that ravaged some buds and two entire branches eaten through. I did some light defoliation after I chopped it and hung it whole in my tent. Im not expecting too much weight from the trimmed harvest, maybe 1.5-2 oz. This was an excellent experiment and will happily do it again next year. I’ll update the journal with final weight and pics of these airy buds in a couple weeks.
@MrGoonai, lol fat stoned alice in wonderland caterpillar. I just took a magnifying lens to the buds and they look milky so, I’ll probably harvest this week. This thing grew strange and fast. 8-9 weeks. Thanks for following I’ll update it when I chop it. I’d rather not let another caterpillar enjoy my plant anymore 🤣
@LarfSnarf, yeah, i also had seeds, that differed quite much from each other. But always interesting to see!
Ok, so no normal soil, but well prepped soil 😅
@MrGoonai, haha thx man! The soil had sticks and grass composing for 1yr. I mixed perlite in both my tomatoes and this 3gal. This plant has a strange structure to her, kinda just the main stalk is producing flower. There are other shoots at the bottom that are going now too but very different structure from my previous two plants. I did spot some white mold on a couple leaves but im treating that tomorrow. I appreciate your comment! This is kinda just an experiment that’s turning out to be great! I think I limited it’s growth potential by putting it in a pot but having it mobile for bad weather is more important to me.
