Holmes grows Auto Zkittlez by Seedsman

Its been a sloooooow week coming into the 9th week into thi grow, and although news everywhere is not looking great, this plant undeniably striving in these hard times. I've been out of work and have had lots of time to watch and see how this girl has been growing. The smell is getting more pungent everyday and theres more trichomes growing in each day little by little. I hope I haven't stunted it or anything since i've been giving it a light trim almost every day from 2-5 leaves with one day trimming about 14 fan leaves to expose the lower growth shown in one of the photos. Those bud sites have been getting a head start on growing trichomes which has me puzzled on whether its because of the more humid air and not being so close to the light so they had a chance in somewhat perfect climate to grow some without getting them burned, or because nutrients go where its closer first and thats why they're developing faster. Either way the bottom ones seems like it will develop sooner than the tops, but not the ones towards the outside of the plant (those look nice) that are growing from main branches from when it was first topped. It's been drinking a lot now that all the energy is being put on growing these colas and I've done a 10% run off feeding on it's last one prior to this log where I was able to pH test the run off where it read as 6.2-.6.3 so I will doing a lower pH feeding a couple times until it's back to normal. The extra boost of bloom nutrients has been treating her well and I think it I will be doing it for another week, or so until these plants start to get bigger fully knowing they've definitely stunted a weeks worth in the beginning. I also feel like it might need another week of growth or until it's for sure mature, even though next week will cap off the breeders suggested flowering time of 75 days, I'll have time to monitor the growth rate and determine whether another week is needed for full maturity. I have time so its not a big deal, I do want some quality product this time so i can't wait for another week to pass and start drying this zkittlez grow!
