Week 5, concluding the fifth week of vegetating:
Hi(gh) Guys,
oFF WiTH THeiR HeaDS!! Picture this, you have 10 real nice plants growing and, SNiPP!
Well it was time to Top them anyway. So now each plant has 8 branches left. All the lowest branches, matching the early leaves are removed, as well as the top 2 to 3 internodes. So basically each plant now consists of a main stem with 8 branches and matching fan-leaves. Only 1 plant I wasnβt sure which branches to remove, so this plant has 10 branches.
They have this week to grow out those branches a little further. Next week Iβm going to move them into 11 liter pots, and if the branching is long enough Iβm able to tie them down right away after that. They can further grow inside the tent for two weeks after that, while going into flowering. And when they are then flowering, only 6 weeks later Iβm going to harvest them! Easy as that!
Iβm looking forward to see you back and check on the Honey Creamβs progress next week!
;-) Grtz, Budcrack ;-)
@James, what do you think, do the Honey Cream's continue growing bud, and then start smelling strong late in the cycle? Seems that the bud is still growing after 4 weeks of flowering. Grtz, Budcrack ;-)
@Satori_Hanso, thanks! Yeah, this is my best round ever, and the quality is also there. The bud is perfectly looking, feeling and smelling, now if it tastes and works great, than it's a winner! I guess that will be perfect too! Lucky me..π
@Satori_Hanso, What makes it difficult to awnser is because the Moonwalkers have such a strong smell. The Honey's are a strain like no other i'd had before, and it really cuts the normal cycle with 4 weeks, so the smell is developing late to begin with. But i'd notice that the smell is much more nuanced than the skunky moonwalkers. It really has a caramel like smell, and a good amount of the pheno's have a strong smell if you come close enough. I expect the smell to become strong this week. We'll see! ;-)
@ReinDeer, thanks, after this diary i'm going to explain only the changes i'm making to my M.O. but this diary is now the baseline. Take your advantage from it and thanks!
