So I have heard week 5 flowering really explodes, but I am in week 4, she seems healthy, with just a hint of nute burn but the flower growth seems slow to harvest in a month. My question is can anyone see any problems with her that could account?
She is growing, there is some increased lower bud development this week. Wondering if some defoliation will assist with airflow or decrease photosynthetically active leaves. Also was wondering if I should add some molasses tea to my nute schedule.
Main colas are filling out nicely underneath. Pistils are about 50% brown on upper colas but all white underneath. Trichs look like they’re just starting to turn cloudy on about 40% of them. I fed today, then just molasses and water here on out I think.
Buds are filling out, colas are growing nicely. Trichs are cloudy on maybe 40-50% of trichs, but there are definitely 1-5% amber trichs already, on day 42 of flower. I hope the ambers take their time and allow the colas to mature and fatten as I go into water only. I guess I’m seeing where the well known couch lock comes from with black sugar. She smells amazing, skunky fruit.
Just water from now out. I’d say about 5% amber trichs and 50 or more milky. Recommended harvest time is 50-55 days she is at day 50 today. Still seems to be stacking new bright green calyxes almost daily. I am planning on harvesting at 10-20% amber trichs unless anyone recommends otherwise? I know they’re hard to see in the pics.
I planted a new auto and the soil was filled with either fungus gnats or thrips. Rather than risking my harvest I cut her down at day 55 of flower. Calyxes were really just starting to swell and the finished product likely suffered, with buds more airy and losing a lot of weight during drying. The smell was incredible through my entire house as I ventilated indoors for security purposes. After 10 days of drying weight was 67g, I would have shown in pic but the plate covered the scale readout and I was too lazy to grab a cup.
She is very easy to grow, Very resilient. Some problems at the end with a few gnats from a different plant caused a slightly early harvest but as a result the smoke is very narcotic relaxing without over sedation. I guess I could say I lucked out this time it could have gone quite poorly. I will absolutely grow her again.
Thanks everyone for the replies. I have pictures and I was using the app bud from the App Store and is where all my pics are, I will port them to here. Yes 4th week of flower, she vegged for 7 weeks as I wanted to allow her to grow adequately the cola site stems to hold large buds. I will continue the diary on here with updates.
@CF998, Hello... iin my opinion its not only the question of organic or not.
For me the base of a good and healthy grow is a soilmix, that fullfills the need of young plants. I go with ... less is more. My soilmix is very "poor" in nutrients and rich in beneficals.( compost)
Hemp is a good plant and if you dont give her to much she looks nice and healthy
and you can overdose every nutrition, if organic or not.....keep the eyes of beneficals like good bacterias, silicea calcium, magnesium...... and look to feed the bacterias with carbs... for me its the key for success
In "cookies for me is the basic soil reciepe. you can use for pure organic instead of perlit cocfiber, and instead of vermiculite, dolomite lime
greetings
3 parst compostsoil
3parts peatmoss
2parts perlite
1 part vermiculite
10 percent wormcastings
and some living organics
@Mrs_Larimar, thank you so much and thank you for all your help throughout this grow. I have 3 Barney’s pineapple chunk seedlings now I can’t wait for them. I will be moving them outdoors too potentially before the solstice. Hopefully it will work out. Journal coming soon. Ps. Checked out your grows, your plants leaves look so so healthy. I intend to go pure Organic, natural compost very soon how do you like it?
@GrowBeforeHoe, thank you so much, they are great, with the slightly early harvest the bud is not as narcotic as I have heard from this strain but still very relaxing.
