14th Week Report 16/01/20 - 23/01/20
Filled the reservoir again with just 6L solution since probably this will be the last week before flush.
Now CMXL is just fattening
You can also see some color changing ๐
Buds are getting some ๐๐purple๐๐ tones!!

Most of the trichomes are cloudy and i can spot some Amber Heads, but they are still less than 10% ๐
This means tonight reservoir will be changed with a mild solution (probably half strength) and I will also add some "Final Solution" Additive (maybe full strength)
I don't like the idea to give her just plain water with some Final Solution at the end, in my opinion she would be just stressed before the cut. I've read a lot about flush before harvest, and after many contrastanding opinions, I think flush is useless if you use hydro, especially if you don't overfeed your plants, there won't be any salt buildup inside reservoir (unlikely soil).
However 3 days before harvest of a mild solution shouldn't hurt her. I do it to be sure about taste๐๐

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
