Week 11
04/12 The odor is very strong, each day stronger and more pungent. Buds and sugar leaves are becoming very sticky!
I think that big bud is doing its work, buds are very fat even if this is the first day of the 4th week of flowering
08/12 - I did a big defoliation removing all fan leaves. This is the last days of Big Bud which will be substituted by the "Overdrive"... leaves i removed were really sticky
@AsNoriu, niiice! I will try with 72 hours, but i will keep watering them during this night period, properly flushing the roots. I have a green headlight, which is perfect to do things inside the tent without "waking" the ladies :D Thanks again for your advice
@Ninja31, i read a lot about darkness shock. There is one really good article or research work about it from holland scientist. Short version of it. Plant needs at least 72 hours ( 3 days ) for results to be expressed in real trichoms increase.
In shorter time plant reacts, starts to defend himself, but for that to become reality plant needs time, 3 nights. Research showed aswell that there is no bigger increase up to 5 nights, but cuttoff minimum is 3.
Water them well before darkness, give 3-4 nights and enjoy frostiest weed ever ;)
@AsNoriu, Unfortunately i must plant this activity due to job issues :/
My aim is to dry them in the tent, because outside humidity is very high and i have to limit the smell.
That's why i can't harvest buds separately, even if this would be a great choice (i like the cluctch effect too ;)
By the way i will wait 'till the end before harvest... I also want to try 36 hours of darkness this time, i read that this increase potency :O

I stoped disturbing them in the night, first 5 or last 5 min of darkness wont change much, but gives you vission even with simple flash light.
Green light beeing reflected , but still is used in photosintesis. You can influence your cycle.
