The tangerine scent is very pleasant and relaxing. I cannot wait to volcano some Tangerine Dream nugs. The colas have been fattening more in week 6 compared to last week. I defoliated Tangerine Dream and Bad Azz kush where ever fan leaves are covering the buds. Tangerine Dream has 50% brown pistils but the trichomes are still half clear half cloudy. Bad Azz kush has all white pistils but some trichomes are becoming amber, around 5% amber. Abusive OG is sad looking and all the trichomes are still clear, I hope she has a lot more to go. She has definitely been putting on some size though.
I was away for 2 days and had a friend feed the plants for me. The colas have definitely fatten and it is great to see the change! The scent of Tangerine Dream is so strong. Bad Azz kush trichomes are becoming more cloudy. Abusive OG flowers are growing but very slowly. The main observations so far is right lights = beautiful and big colas and your yield is driven by genetics , rest is human judgment!
@FreezingIslandBoi, yeah you get that sometimes .. my Strawberry Lemonade I grew last crop was very Sativa dominant and didn't look anything like anyone else's Straw.Lemonade from Barney's. I just considered myself lucky 😁
@HazeyBobby,
Yes sir, it sure is! I am skeptical about the Abusive OG( 100% Indica ) but is taller than Tangerine Dream Sativa dominate. It makes me question the authenticity of that seed.
Love it! I’m doing my first mainline/manifold now - I don’t have a diary as I’m not 100% sure of the genetics (bag seed - but I was told it was Barneys Critical Kush). I might start a diary when I do the 12/12
@Tripledrop,
Thank you Tripledrop! 👍🏽 Mainlining is great for big yield and the girls get greedy with nutrients! There is a lot of articles on the internet that will help. If you need help, shoot me a message or ask the growers here ✌️🏽 Good luck on your mainlining. I am sure you will kill it and may the ladies bless you with lots of beautiful colas. 👍🏽
Awesome grow! So happy I found your diary, i currently have AOG going, and it is very cal/mag heavy like you say! glad to see your results, i hope to get half as good as you!
Good to hear you're managing high frequency fertigation by hand ... I know it's a commitment at times. I'm forced into the same situation with the summer heat :)
@FreezingIslandBoi, oh yes... that reunion is always memorable :) I'm in a similar boat soon with a friend watering just once a day for a week 🤦♂️ (probably the last week too :) ) - such is life.
@HazeyBobby,
I feel you man but anything for the buds! I water them 5 times a day currently, the lockdown helps else I cannot maintain that amount of watering. I am gone out of town for 3 days :( and will have a friend water them 1 or 2 times a day. They will not like that and I will most likely lose some yield but it will be interesting to see how they are doing when I get back.
Nice grow ... the plants will typically start their long stretch after change of light for about 2-3 weeks. Just keep training them down and if need be reduce the number of plants if height becomes restrictive. Good luck through the next few weeks 👍
@NedKelly,
I bought these wire ties at the dollar store gardening section. They are also referred as soft wire tie light duty, i am sure you can get your hands on some.
