Climbing mount O.G. Kush

In week 6 of flowering since pistils showing - the late flowering stage - and I'm getting excited 😎 the buds all over the plant are continuing to swell and trichomes are glistening clear. Some of the white pistil hairs have started turning darker into an amber colour - looking at another 2 weeks at this stage to harvest based on the trichomes. Buds & leaves are covered in resin and a strong citrus scent permeates the grow space. Will look to prune leaves below the net to help maintain the humidity. No major defoliation practice in this grow. The plant remains 48cm high from the medium surface, and the canopy is 30cm above the trellis net at its peak tops. Started the Pre Ripen stage of the feed schedule, changing to Ripen stage next week (details in the Nutrients section). Average volume of water per day has decreased with the colder weather. It's been harder to maintain the humidity in the grow space below 60% with the outside weather being wet. My small dehumidifier is running outside the tent in the surrounding room (as it's not effective considering the air exchange rate in the space is high). The extraction fan is operating continuously to maintain both temps and humidity, and 3 fans ventilate inside the tent ensuring lots of air movement. After a full flush at the end of last week, the run-off EC spiked much higher again within a few days. Managed to bring it back down over a few days by decreasing my inflow EC to 1.15 . My target is for the run-off EC to be within 300 points of the Inflow EC. Tracking run-off volume/EC/pH at every fertigation event as I manage the feed EC to monitor what the plant is doing/feeding. Fertigation is maintained now to three times a day (at lights on/+4hrs/at lights off) to maintain the target EC. Light period is during the night time to better maintain heat/humidity conditions during light off period (which happens during daytime). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The grow setup includes ; - Secret Jardin DS120W tent (120cm x 60cm x 180cm) placed inside the bedroom - Mars Hydro SP250 LED light - extraction fan - AC Infinity Cloudline T6 (gives me great control over the environment) - ventilation fans - aquarium heater for nutrients solution (for winter use only) - small oil heater (for winter use only) - small dehumidifier - 20L Airpots (as final pots) and 3.5L general plastic pots (for seedling stage) - Canna Coco substrate mixed with 40% perlite - GHE Flora Trio as base nutrients and various additives - pH and EC/TDS meters - 2x Govee Thermo/Hygro meters (one at canopy, the other at the roots level - these allow for external monitoring and recording) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Some strain info from Royal Queen Seeds ; An amazing mix of genetics background - Its true genetics are unknown. Some say OG Kush is a mix of ChemDawg with a Lemon Thai and Pakistani Kush. Others say that it’s just a special cutting of ChemDawg from the early 90s. The most obvious trait of OG Kush is its strong, unique, very dank, slightly citrus aroma, almost like fuel or strong detergent. The flavour of OG Kush is equally as strong and dank, with a long-lasting aftertaste. OG Kush is an extremely strong cannabis strain, with most experienced smokers listing it as one of their favourites. The effect is as strong physically as it is mentally. Though its effect is like an Sativa, the strain's genetics are mostly Indica. The effect is as strong and complex as the flavour. OG Kush takes around 8 weeks to flower and on average the yield is 500 grams per plant.
