Week 19 update - and so we arrive at the end. While it’s been hard to tell with the last few plants, the fade on this one has come on, trichs are in our wheelhouse and it’s time to start the flush. They’ll get 2-3 ph’d waterings over the next week and then an extended dry time before we chop. Despite all the challenges we faced on this one she’s performed admirably in her current environment. A true sativa, her node spacing was stretched somewhat and we’re not expecting huge numbers in terms of yield. That said, what we will pull off this plant is gonna be some special smoke indeed. She frosted out very nicely even though the lack of headroom resulted in less light coverage post stretch. Stay tuned folks and thanks as always for take’n a look👊. Harvest report to follow shortly😉😎👍.
Aug 28 update - she’s fade’n like a dream. Chop is coming up end of week.
Background
To the best of our knowledge, White Label is outta Amsterdam and this is their purple haze. It’s a 70% sativa, medium size by comparison to other sativas. Sorry - specific strain background is unknown. The effects description is perfect for our purposes and sounds like a great day time option. The original intent was to just get one of these growing, throw on a property and let her do her thing without much involvement. Well, complications arose and ensued and we ended up having to swap out the 707 in the cabinet with this girl instead just to keep growth rates relatively comparable with the strawberry Cough that’s fully go’n off right now👍. Then she caught a massive deficiency, ended up in ICU and has been on her own ever since. The planting medium is coco and purlite in a 7gal. Smartpot. She was topped at about the 5th node to match heights with the SC and break apical dominance. There is honestly no particular plan with this plant so it should be fun to see how she turns out - thanks for stoppn in. She’s def. an all time classic👊.
@randyjustice, cheers bud appreciate the look👍. This one got delayed a week with a deficiency issue... and then another week to stagger harvest with other grows. If all goes well with getting the net down this week, probably be flipping this Saturday/Sunday. Depends on how tameable she is - scrogging this plant is a bit of an afterthought... much like the entire grow! Lol👊
@mr_h_kovert, appreciated as always HK. Still a little in awe on the colour variance. Yield was a surprise too so it’ll keep us in a haze for a good while👍😎👊
Good job! I know you think differently for this round, but they say part of being a good grower is learning to resolve and adapt to problems, and with that yield you proved that you can. I still have yet to get a grow that I'm completely happy with. It's all a learning experience.
@MovingOn, yeah I guess so. In the end I’m happy with it - just a little annoyed with some of the decisions which only made it more difficult. But ur right - end result is there👍 And man she’s tasty👌👊
