So this last week the 3 phenos have really grown in bud size. 1 of the 3 that exhibit similar genetics has some taco leaves going on. Might be too dry in my tent as my house is really dry and having a hard time keeping humidity up. Need to invest in a better humidifier, but most of my grow is done on a budget to see what is possible.
The one tall stringy plant is weird, but smells fantastic. It's like a grape, blueberry smell. The sugar leaves are turning purple a bit as well. Not sure if this is just a genetic variation you can get, or if perhaps I didn't do a great growing job. Could be the environment, or perhaps the PH of the medium is off. Water is PH to 6.3-6.8 usually but winter can change water hardness here a bit.
The other 3 seem to be doing great. The buds are good size with some nice hairs. The leaves are starting to fade a bit and I can see the pistils are turning more amber to brown. Trichomes are still clear in most areas with a little bit of cloudy. Smell great, like a very sativa like smell. Each one is slightly different scent. The tall stringy one is the exception with it's smell.
This is the last week of flower on the label, but I will likely push them a few more and see what happens. I find with LED lights it can take longer than outdoor or better lights. Because the fertilizer is organic slow release, I won't need to flush. They will use up what is left in the medium as they begin to fade. I will likely still give them a good water near the end to flush a bit and likely 2-3 days of complete dark before harvest. I've done ice water shock at the end before and find it can bring out a lot of trichomes.
None the less, things have been easy and I've really enjoyed how resilient the plants are. As I have another pack of 4 I may try my hand at it again next grow. Plan this week is to keep an eye on colors and trichomes, along with proper watering and environment management.
Yes this is a sweet genetic and will watch your and decided ifni wat to try it .
My low ryder was definitely a low ryder lol even with LST she did not stretch much has dour main top sites due to training and is in 3 week flower has not stretch much but man she smells amazing!
Good luck with your grownunwill follow this one
