Left her for a week while I was on vacation with an automatic dripping watering system I bought on Amazon. I gave her a heavy plain-water feeding on Friday leaving the bottom tray full also. I set the dripper to delay for 4 days, and then run for 4 mins every 3 hours. When I got back, the soil was still wet and the girls were still alive.
When I first got home, the colas were so heavy that they were all drooping. I grabbed some twine and tied the plant together for a bit to help give them support. I'm hoping to harvest on Halloween, but if they're not ready, I'm sure she can go another week or two with the plain water flush. Now I'm watching her and the other plant in the same tent to see when they're ready. Ideally, I'll harvest them both at the same time, but we'll see what happens.
To my surprise, it looks like she doubled in thickness, but it could just be because I haven't seen her in a week. Unfortunately, my phone decided it wanted to go for a swim in the ocean, so I had to use an older phone to take the photos and they didn't come out great... sorry about that!
Congratulations on the harvest friend. Beautiful grow.
I'm also on the quest to improve my flavor. My Lemon Haze doesn't taste like lemon at all but is a good smoke haha. Enjoy your hard work. Greetings ๐
@SalocinSpecial, She was a beauty, but didn't have much of a smell while growing or after curing. Smokes pretty well.. Bubble hash wasn't SUPER excellent and I'm waiting to see how this rosin turns out before writing a harvest diary.
Ended up being 5.5 oz.. around 153g or so with another 30g of trim/fluffy buds
Can anyone advise me on best wat to go about the best nutrients and using canna coco soil plus was told to mix with perlite new to this game lol. Would be greatful of any help cheers
@Maduchax, Hey bud - hope your run is going well so far. Is that soil straight coco? If so - you'll have to feed your plants often. Unfortunately, I'm not super well versed on proper organic nutrient feeding and that's why I went with the Ocean Forest/Coco Loco and Fox Farm nutrient line. Using the Ocean Forest Soil mixed with the Coco Loco, I didn't have to feed my plants any nutrients until the 4th/5th week. Then after that, I just followed the Fox Farm feeding chart. I probably did something wrong at some point and that is why there were some leaf discolorations/burning in some of the earlier weeks, but I'm happy with the results.
Whatever way you go - I hope you get great results
