Climbing mount O.G. Kush

In week 7 of flowering since pistils showing - the ripening stage - and those buds are swelling beautifully 😎 Been away on holidays so coming back to see this baby was a nice highlight and relief. Pistils are now darkening and curling all over, and trichomes are mostly all cloudy with a few amber ones. Checking trichomes on various buds with a 16x magnifier and at this stage looking to harvest within the next week. The buds are permeating a wonderful citrus scent (pure lemon) - just makes me want to rub the leaves all over. Almost all fan leaves will be pruned off over the next week prior to harvest. 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 Ripen stage of the feed schedule (details in the Nutrients section), and will be flushing for a few days prior to harvest. It's been a better week to maintain the humidity in the grow space below 60% with the outside weather being dry. 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. Inflow EC has been dropped substantially in the last stage of the feed schedule with run-off EC being maintained within 300 points of the Inflow EC. Fertigation events had to be dropped to once a day whilst I was away on holidays so the pot was getting fully dry between events (not desirable due to built up of salts in coco). 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.
