What a strain! The shorter TropCookies has the biggest, densest, smelliest orange buds in my garden! They are beautiful and very heavy. The larger plant is several times larger than the small one with the super buds. I am hoping the larger one fills in like the smaller one did, but I doubt she'll go has big bud wise. The larger one is several weeks out whereas the smaller fat one is popping at the seams to be harvested. I'm going to continue to let it fade a bit more and use up the nutes, checking trichomes daily before harvesting the smaller one. I don't think I'll be able to finish these in time of the contest ending.
@Bostongirlgrows, 2 outta 3 plants I got, ended up getting killed cause they just weren't doing anything. The one that finished though is very nice. Best of luck to yours!
@MrJones, Yeah, I need to make a decision, the smaller one with fatter buds isn't fading as much as I'd like it to and still seems to be bulking on a good bit of weight an calyx development. I fear soon I am going to have the wonderful problem of too much harvest and not enough drying space!
