Day 85, first day of Week 13. She gives off the most beautiful smell since today, wow, never smelled something like that ๐She is also still foxtailing like a freaky little monster, fading nicely. With her I'm a bit confused as to where I should be looking now, new foxtails trichomes or the older calxy behind the foxtails? Probably a mix. Read somewhere on Reddit, that they apparently pack on proper buds, so the foxtails get fat as well. I guess we will see. Happy days
Day 87, checking trichomes everyday, still milky. She got more yellow since the last time I took pictures. Some of the foxtails have developed. Both plants got watered yesterday, with 2ml Flawless Finish. Smell still strong. Could be any day now aaaaaaaaaaaaah happy ๐
Day 88, at her daily trichome check she looked ready all of a sudden. Even on foxtails I see amber trichomes, funny mix actually, amber and clear ๐All over her buds she is a good 20% amber now. I think that should be fine for a Sativa. I chopped her and put her stem in a vase with ph water. A friend once told me a fairytale story, about how this does something good when compared with darkness. We will see, can't remember properly, it won't harm ๐ She is a pleasant lady and weighs wet with stems 469g, which is more than my other wedding cake (244g). I guess that's great yeay. She is currently sitting in the drying tent together with wedding cake. Happy days
Update Day 1 of Darkness in a vase full of water: She initially weighed 469g yesterday when I chopped her and put her in the vase. 16 hours later I had a little look inside the tent and checked the water in the vase, she drank quite a bit, about a quarter the amount. I weighed again and she now weighs 489g, not a big difference but still, I feel slightly sciency ๐ฝHer buds seem sucked in and more dark but also more rich looking, if that makes sense. I also imagine some other parts to be more green, ok, I like it. Check for yourself in the pictures added, if you like. Exciting yeay
I will have to go on a business trip for 4 days (in 5 days) and Iโm unsure if I should chop before & have them dry (unattended) or if I can wait it out for 4 days. She would be on D84 when I come back.
Thank you :)
it looks early to harvest.Dont worry it won't overmature in 10 days :) Soil can wait,no problem. Since you seem to have at least 2 more weeks, I wouldn't chop at this point. 4 days trip is nothing,it can wait for sure.no worries :)
I dried this plant for 6 days and am currently dry trimming. While trimming I found some seeds ๐ฃ๐ณOver all the buds (and I checked all, believe me ๐) 7 seeds, 1 I squished, they are either white or in their green shell. Why did she herm, what's it mean & what to do with seeds?
It is nothing to worry about. With their end approaching , they can sometimes attempt to keep her Gene's alive with an emergency seeding. When dry trimming, ( good for you. No cuts at all till completely finished drying. Allows her to continue living and converting chlorophyll better. My usual method too. ) she goes into the dark alive and healthy but will respond to the new situation with the knowledge something has gone wrong !!!. Her odd seed is this response usually. Nothing to worry about at all. nice job
Daaaaaaamn those are some fat buds. Fantastic! Fat and colorful with a nice bit of frost. Nice work. Keep doing what your doing and best of luck moving forward growmie.
@starke, they are a fantastic strain but unfortunately my recent one is dealing with some serious issues. My fault I believe though not the lovely genetics.
@starke, I have one single seed of the Hindu Kush left. But I will not grow her in the foreseeable future. When the current grow is done, I will take a break. I have enough medicine for at least a whole year ๐
@Buddha2, yessssss, so pleased with this grow, the potential this plant has, I can only imagine what someone really experienced could do to her. Looking forward to smoking the first bud ๐Have a good day, and I loved your Hindu Kush Grow btw, do you still have some of her left?
