Day 80: I took some final outdoor pics before harvest. This Orange Diesel strain has produced some massive, dense, and leafy buds. Trimming may be a pain due to all the leaf material, but the buds are 3in+ in diameter and will likely end with some really good yields. The smell continues to be a lovely sharp orange and fuel aroma.
I definitely should have defoliated the lower portions more aggressively as I was not prepared for how dense and thick the foliage would become with a soilless/hydro growing style. But other than that I am very pleased!
I will post a final harvest update after drying in about a week. Thanks for reading, and happy growing!
@Chedderbob112, if your coco has good drainage/perlite it's helpful as you can water/fertilize multiple times per day and keep the root zone conditions ideal. I don't want to hand water 1-3 times per day so it saves a lot of time! With this type of coco growing I have found plants are larger and more vigorous 👍
