Plants are still looking and smelling great! Water consumption is slowly dropping, as can be expected, since they are getting close to being ready for harvest. The banana aroma is really coming out in these now. The rear plant is pretty close to being ready for harvest, so I may harvest her as soon as the middle of next week. The front plant is foxtailing due to the stress early on caused by me plucking "nanners" off of them when they formed. The front plant doesn't appear to be seeded from the nanners, but it certainly wouldn't surprise me to find some seeds in the buds from that plant. The rear plant is just starting to get it's fall colors so I'm hoping the front plant will be about a week behind.
@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.
