53 days into flower. Maybe 7-10 days left before I harvest. Most trichomes have turned milky and just starting to see a few turn amber.
This last week was interesting as I found a little bit of bud rot on a colla of my healthiest plant. A growers nightmare right? Of course conserned, I just about took down the whole grow, but I wanted to do my research first.
After a thorough inspection of all bud sites I found 1 more with potential rot and decided to just take down the 2 main branches that I knew were infected. I pulled back on watering for the week and moved the dehumidifier closer to the plants. After a few days ALL the buds look great and the soil is nice an dry. I will water just as needed if any until harvest.
The smell on the buds is of sweet fruit. 2 plants are leaning towards a more pine smell, almost reminding me of a Northern Lights.
I will continue to check the trichomes daily and hopefully will be chopping by next update!
Thanks for tuning in✌️
Setup looks sick man, I'm growing g zkitz too, maybe just over a week ahead perhaps, I'm set to put mine into grow bags tomorrow I think :)
Be careful with space heaters man, if it's space heaters as I know them, they burn out so easily, not the safest,
Oil heaters are nice, if you worry about heat when lights off,
you could set an oil heater on the opposite time cycle to your light, when lights off, heaters on kinda thing, put it behind or in front of your fan to blow the warm air about
@Dday314, yeah I've been sticking to the 18" recommendation. I've also allowed the plants to stretch until a distance of maybe 14-15" then raised the light and had no signs of burn or being too hot for the plants. I'm about to switch to flower though and I will definitely shorten the distance.
