Project Broiler

During the 7th week, I tested a new irrigation scheme. Things didn't get worse, but the EC in the runoff didn't decrease much—it stayed around 3-3.3. At least it’s not increasing, so that’s a plus. The plant has pretty much stopped growing visually, with only a slight stretch in the colas. It feels like it's focusing more on trichome production now. This week, I’ll continue the same approach but will use half the dose of base nutrients—2 ml/L. I’ve swapped BigBud for Overdrive. Despite everything, the buds have started maturing, so I’ll likely give it one more week before flushing. I’m itching to start a new run and aim for a grow without overfeeding. The long break from growing and the new setup have definitely affected the results. It’s not a total mess though—there’s plenty of frost, and American strains aren’t exactly known for massive buds anyway. Still, I feel it could’ve been better. The smell is strong but pretty standard. It starts off with a chemical-gasoline punch, then transitions into a citrusy aroma, closer to grapefruit. It’s not your typical scent, but I personally prefer more fruity-candy profiles.
