5th Week Report 14/11/19 - 21/11/19
In photos CMXL is on the left and LSD on the right
14/11/19
From 09/11/19 (just 5 days) both of them had an explosive growth and increased their height by more than 10cm.
CMXL is extremely bushy and shows many new side colas.
Didn't changed the 35% strength reservoir and neither added more solution as I plan to change it in 1-2 weeks.

Tried to remove the pots from tote's lid for some LST, but I realized they won't move till harvest as roots mixed up together, they are tied up.

CMXL showing first preflowers!
19/11/19
LSD Growing really fast and starting to enter flowering stage! The next week will officially be the first flowering week!
CMXL Still growing strong and next week she will be at the beginning of flowering like LSD
Now I'm training CMXL doing just some small defoliation strictly needed.
For both of them I won't apply anymore LST, but I will simply move big fan leaves under the side colas to give them more light and also to achieve a better cola spacing
QUESTION:
I just have a doubt and probably I will ask your help also through the "Grow Question".
Do you suggest me remove some o the lower growth? (Like lollipopping)
If you can help me please answer on comments and if there are needed more photos I will be happy to post them!

See you guys ;)
@CRK00, If there are many parts that receive less light and have fewer 'ready' trichomes, then you can leave those part longer to harvest.
Personally, I only harvest once.
Sweet smokes!

@Sweet_Seeds, I'm already checking trichomes and more than 80% is cloudy, are starting to appear now just a couple of Amber trichomes.
Now I'm doing a soft flush and probably in 2/3 days I'll harvest her.
Do you suggest to leave lower growth after harvest and try to give her a couple more weeks to have a second harvest?
Hands up for Cream Mandarine ๐๐
@CRK00, Hi buddy!
The final flowering time, can vary by many factors, one of them and very important the phenotype.
Our CMXL is a very special strain that everyone loves. We're glad to hear that you do too. :)
Remember that to know when to harvest, you must be guided by the status of the trichomes (not the pistils).
Sweet smokes!

@@WisdomCulture420, thanks mate! ๐
Today I checked the growth after some days and updated the diary ;)
I'm satisfied and I hope it keeps on going like that! ๐
