This strain took much longer than expected. I'll put up some pictures from between the week 9 and chop day. It looks like it will be worth the wait. Smells very nice.
The Vanilla Kush took so long to mature. It looks like it will be worth the wait though. It is currently drying so I will update with weights and effects in a couple weeks.
On week 8 now. I'm not really sure how much longer to let them go. It's been over 8 weeks (recommended length) and the Deep Mandarine is still sprouting new pistals and the vanilla kush is still gaining weight and girth steadily.
¯_(ツ)_/¯
@Alypius, I usually end up harvesting mine around 7 or 8 weeks of flowering. It's a very beautiful plant but I've noticed a lot of the hairs will just fall right off the bud.
The dwarf Vanilla Kush and Deep Mandarine are beginning their flush and will be cut at the end of the week. Temperature is becoming an issue in the tent.
