Things are slowing down but the plants are still looking great. Water consumption dropped a bit, and the humidity has been pretty high all week, so I've decided to get an air conditioner in the room to deal with the high humidity. The end of this coming week will mark the lower end of the breeders estimated harvest time so I will break out the jeweler's loupe at the end of next week to see how the trichomes are looking on the back plant. I'm thinking the front plant will need probably 2 weeks more than the back plant.
@Complicate, Thanks! Yeah, I took my time with this grow and it has really paid off. I'm still surprised about how far behind the front plant is so I'll be curious to see if I have a similar issue with my next round. I'm pretty sure it was caused by the lights being shifted too far back and hope that was the issue.
@RussianGrower, thanks for the comment! They look a little sloppier than I’m used to at this stage but I still have plenty of time to train them to fill out better.
@BudXs, Thanks, I appreciate it! I was kind of thrown off by his comment. My diary has a lot of pictures and info in it so I really wasn't sure where he was coming from with that comment, unless he was in the contest and was just being a sore loser.
@CUBULATOR, No, I don't work for GD. I've entered 3 contests so far, and this is the only one that has placed, but my diary isn't showing as a winner yet so I don't know if they are even done with the judging.
