We're 2 days in to week 4 and the amnesia haze is coming along. If I recall these really take off during preflower and near double in height. I think we are around 10 days from preflower. I'm hoping they stay under 30 inches so I don't have to rearrange my lights too much. I'll transplant to larger pots after I harvest one of the Blue Mystics.
The BMs had a good week. I gave the last feeding to the one that seems a few days ahead. I would like to harvest one in the next 7-8days. The other I will give at least one more feeding.
The smell issue I had earlier from BM2 is not as noticeable but when I isolate her to take pics and inspect she clearly has an earthier scent than the others. It's not as strong nor as pleasant and still has me perplexed. Would love feedback from others on if you've had the 2 plants of the same strain smell noticeably different.
I have a 3rd BM I started a few weeks after the others. This one had bananas last week that I think were from light stress. I removed them and decided to keep (her?) around. No other signs of issues so far and she seems to be developing normal. At worst I have a rare seed in a bud or two (I think it would stay isolated to the buds around the naners...)? Note: I've heard it's not wise to grow a seed from a hermie as it passes those traits on but I'd still give them a try to see what happens.
I'm looking forward to the different stages of harvest for the BM. I prefer a more energetic high than couch lock so I don't mind cutting a little early but figuring out the flush window is always a challenge and a lot can happen in a week with autos so I'm a little uneasy about my timetables.
Update: decided to harvest the top part of BM1. It's only been 7 days since their last feeding so not completely flushed yet but I left most of her and plan to harvest in about 5 days. Wet weight came out to 59g/2 oz. I think that will be a little under a 1/2 oz dry.
