Week 17 went well and this lady is nearing the end of her lifespan. This week saw impressive growth of her inflorescence and trich production. The smell is still not as strong as I would've expected given her heritage (the White Widow next to her has more of that classic gassy smell) but she does have what I'd classify as a "normal" cannabis odor that smells pleasant enough. If anything she has demonstrated consistently that she is a late bloomer and takes her time, so perhaps the next few weeks will see that classic Sour D smell become more pronounced. I also worry a bit about Canna Boost affecting smell and taste as it seems every cultivar I use it on seems to take on the same overall background aroma. I'd be interested to see if others have noticed this.
She is on auto-pilot now, for the most part. I've ordered a better USB pocket scope to inspect her trichs as the loupe and cellphone camera really weren't doing me any good. It should be here today and I'll have a better idea of how long she has left. For now, she is receiving plain pH'd water with a dose of Boost added every third day or so. I'll likely back of the Boost now that we are nearing the end.
Mid-week I had to tie her up to avoid her, now heavy, limbs falling over against the walls of the tent. I wanted to correct this before it resulted in bud rot. Fortunately, I was able to rig something up that got her balanced quite nicely while still allowing plenty of light penetration to all of her budsites.

Very nice. I'm sure u'll enjoy. I have some seeds for this so I came me to see what I could hope for. As for the "nanners" they can also happen when u let your plants go for too long. At least That's my experience. I think the plant gets frustrated, I wants to get polinated and pass her lineage along. She's done everything she can to make herself beautiful and no male has come she doesn't know what else to do and as a last ditch effort she goes "screw these useless dudes, I'mma do it myself". It's actually a bit sad.
