I kind of got off to a late start with all the booster nutrients for this girl, for the first couple weeks of flower she only got base nutes. So, I've always felt it was under developed for its age. Buds have started to fill in nicely over the last week, I'm hoping she packs it on over the next couple weeks.
I got a few new pics with my macro lens, the trichome's are very small on this plant and hard to see with the naked eye so I was relieved to see the abundance of them in the photos.
Well, it's Day 64 and everything is looking pretty good. Buds are still not as dense as I'd like to see, but we'll see what the next two weeks bring.
This is the first real trial for these MarsHydro lights, I'm thinking they would be a great light to get plants started, but I need something with more flower power!
So I'm not sure if I pulled the trigger a bit too early for the flush, but I guess we'll see. Today is Day 71 and I started with Flawless Finish Yesterday, I'm hoping I timed it right, some pistils have started to turn brown, mostly lower on the plant and looking closely at the trichs there seems to be a small percentage starting to turn amber, They are mostly higher up on the plant but there is evidence of amber trichs starting lower too.
I planned to try and water three times total with Flawless Finish and then not water her for the last few days before harvest. This is a 7 week strain and Day 77 is a week from today. I know auto's can go over on time sometimes, but I think this one will be close
Until just recently, I've been using the macro lens on my camera to get a closer look at things. I would have sworn trichs were turning amber, must of been a result of the flash or something because I just bought a jewellers loupe and what a difference! Upon closer inspection, everything is milky but nothing is amber. I had about 10-20% brown pistils and no amber trichs so I decided to stop flushing and feed her once or twice more until ready to resume. There is a pretty rapid browning of the pistils now (50-60% in the lower areas) so I started the flush again in hopes I can take her down in the next 5-6 days.
I'll know better for next time, and I know I've probably wasted a few days of bulking up on some good bud meat but that's how it goes lol... live and learn!
Looking forward to the next Candy Cane I get rolling, still have three beans left. I learned a LOT during this grow, and the next ones will only get better.
