The Pink Lady is down. The two purple ones were 3.25oz each. This one will be 4.25 at least, which really is kinda my absolute minimum. However after a week of drying and week of curing those two I can report are both very resiny and also very strong, did they live up to their 30%? I do not know, but if any are going to near that this pink pheno would be the one. It is more heavily encrusted if that were possible with a different terpene profile.
I cut a small branch off last week to check for bud rot as I hav been concerned about this, however it's been dry and I have had a 45RH% dehumidifier blowing on it. Also the bud structure of the two purple phenos were quite loose which makes for good vaping. They both had a rather uninteresting fruity taste with no complexity. That does not matter a great deal to me when they are encrusted and strong. I tried a bit of that bud today after a week of drying and it has some diesel mixed in with the berries, let's hope it's still there after drying.
The colours are so unusual, with pale golden pistils all sugar leaves green with no purple bleed, and all the purple confined only to the calyxes that are then covered in trichomes. The pale shade of green and the pink makes it look like a sort of muddy pink from a distance.
I thought I saw what may be a bit of bud rot after chopping down today but it was in fact just an overabundance of trichomes coupled with some very unusual pink-yellow-green colours that appear to the naked eye to have a slimy look.
@Fast_Buds, glad you enjoyed it. the curly leafed mutant producing good bud with bad leaves has altered my perception of autos and how many leaves they really need!
@Homework, The stems were too thick and short to tuck, I just wanted to get some light into the under branches, for a couple of days so they could push through, then I let them down again. Usually I'll just try and tuck till all the branches catch up.
Interesting grow my friend. Some things I never saw before like the pyramids and the rubber band thing after topping the Ladies. Don't you give nutes at all?
@Smoking_Joe_Frasier, I just saw the rubber band thing myself before I did that. Just a few days was enough. I prepare a standard 9 litre bucket with a 3 part hydro nute, micro grow and bloom, and pour it on. Sometimes I will just use plain water because the plugs hold a lot of nutrients.
