Northern Lights Auto Seedsman, 2nd Grow

Starting the week off well! Audrey is Week 12 and has about 2-4 weeks to go. I judge she'll be right in the middle at 3 weeks. Some bits I'm noticing having changed in the past few days -- she's taken on a fruity smell that is very strong, starting to leak even through the carbon filter. Her pistils are starting to brown up -- I'd say no more than 10-15% right now. Her calyx's are swelling and frosting up nicely, and she's starting to give up on some of the lower leaves that aren't getting light. We're approaching the harvest window for sure! One problem I noticed is the past couple feedings have given her some not-so-great nute burn even though I've changed nothing in her regimen, so I'm dialing back hard this week. Doing two small light feedings, then going to nothing but water starting 12/03. Going to keep an eye out for mold, since these are the hard weeks to worry about. I'll update throughout the week! Good luck with your grows. For Rock and Stone. Day 80: Well, because she's continued to get some nute burn from the minimal nutes I've added, I went ahead and did a flush today. I had to take her out of the tent to do so, and damn she's a lot wider than expected! Her poor colas are so fat they were all falling over! My largest cola actually snapped towards the base, and although I've taped her back up if she looks like it's a goner I'll harvest that cola early (it's probably my furthest along, with 50% pistils having changed). She's back in the tent and propped up, so she won't be taking any more trauma going forward. I did get a taste test, and she's got a real fruity and pine-y taste to her. Here's to hoping things are more chill going forward. Day 81: Checked in today and she seems to be doing fine. The cola that snapped is still getting nutrients, hasn't crisped up at all. Tape job really did work. She's resilient! Since she got put back into the tent opposite side the pics are going to look funky until I can get some better lighting. That, plus all the colas falling over every time I open the tent now. Need to work on support structure next time I grow, since I LST'ed her so hard that the smallest branches never thickened up in time to support the colas. Bet it would work better with a pure photoperiod. Day 84: With pistils at about 60-70% brown and curling and trichromes mixed, we decided to sample a bit. Took 1-2g wet + trim off a middle bud, and after decarb made a small tincture with it. On a scale of 1-10 in terms of "high," both wife and I rated it about a 3/10. Super mellow, took the edge off, but no body high at all and very little emotional high. About what I expected when checking trichromes. I'm thinking it needs at least another week, if not 2-3. Will sample some more next week.
