5/18:
Both plants stretched another couple of inches. Both of them had droopy leaves on their tops, but now one of them looks normal. I thought the droopiness was just a genetic characteristic, but maybe that's just how they manifest thirst..
Whatever the case, they seem healthy, and were only moderately affected by the UVB over-exposure last week.
5/25 - 5/31:
I fed them lightly early in the week, then fed heavily on the 31st using beastie bloomz and other late flowering nutes.
They still have 2-3 weeks left in them...
That's it for week 8-
6/1:
I fed them today and raised the lights a little bit. They both stretched a couple of inches over the past week and one of them is kinda bleached looking.
They've still got a couple of weeks to go...
6/2:
Set the UVB to run an extra half hour per day.
6/5:
I watered them both with about a half-gallon including silica, microlife maximum blooms, cal-mag, signal, and sweet & sticky
6/8 - 6/12:
I fed them one last time with a heavy dose of cha ching and 4 days later I flushed them with about 7.5 gallons each using TPS LiquidSoil.
Out of time for this grow...one plant is very ripe and ready, and the other probably could have used another several days. Oh well....I'm thinking about freezing this one fresh to press some live rosin with anyway. They went into the dark on Friday night...never again to see the light of day.
6/13:
I harvested both plants today. I did a cursory wet-trim and washed their buds, and then hung them to dry.
I'm guessing the ugly one will weigh in at about 80g, and the smaller, pretty one, will weigh in at about 65-70g.
The plants ended up being the biggest in my garden, but were a little slower than some of the other strains to get into flower. The buds never swelled up very big, but they're very dense and smell wonderful. The aromas really bring back memories from the last time I grew NL back in the early 90's. Looking forward to giving it a try!👍
I'll update in another week or so with the smoke report and my final thoughts..
9/16:
Initially, it had not much smell or flavor, but after leaving it alone for a few months, it improved quite a bit. Still not my favorite, but very good bud all the same.
