13.10: This week marked several significant events in my cannabis cultivation journey. We are now entering the fourth week of flowering, but one of my plants stubbornly remained in the vegetative stage. After careful consideration, I decided to remove it from the grow box. I harvested the leaves and set them aside for drying to make tea. The flowering process for the remaining plants has been progressing well. Over the past week, the plants have grown over 12 centimeters, showing steady development. The buds are maturing quickly, and the aroma is becoming more pronounced, which is a promising sign of healthy flowering. However, two days ago, I noticed a concerning issue with my largest plant—a plant I had been especially proud of. Unfortunately, it began showing signs of hermaphroditism. This is likely a result of some beginner mistakes in the growing process. Additionally, the weather threw an unexpected challenge my way. The humidity in my apartment reached unusually high levels, hovering between 80-85% for three consecutive days. Naturally, I refrained from watering the plants during this period, but this sudden spike in humidity might have caused the stress that triggered the hermaphroditic tendencies. I acted swiftly upon discovering around 10 small pollen sacs on the plant. Fortunately, it appears that they hadn’t opened yet—or at least, I hope so. I’ve been diligent in checking the plant regularly, removing any pollen sacs I come across as quickly as possible. Encouragingly, I haven’t spotted any new ones since then, which is a good sign. There's still a small chance that I may be able to harvest seedless buds after all. With just 3-4 weeks left until harvest, I’m cautiously optimistic. I’ll continue to monitor the plants closely and ensure that the environment remains stable to prevent any further issues. Fingers crossed for a successful finish!
