Tangerine Dream Auto 2

👉All the leaves up top are yellowing, not from a nutrient deficiency, but from cooler temps at night and moderate temps in the day. As low as 62 (average 65), high was 78 once for a couple hours (average 75). Humidity has dropped a bit to to bitter cold winter temps (sub zero for lows a couple times). Fortunately, we were spared the hardships many faced during the centurion storm. The buds are frosty and dense, with lots of cloudy trichomes on the calix's, no amber (except on sugar leaves). The buds are getting a ting of purple around the edges, most likely due to the cooler night temps. There are still a lot of white pistols. Over all the plant is doing wonderful! I am watching the trichomes daily now using various methods. I use a hand held 10x magnifier, a 40x eye loop, a USB powered microscope, and a DSL with a 50mm lens coupled with macro rings. The aroma is mellow and sweet. The aroma off my finger after touching a bud is the typical pine-sol sweet...such a fun aroma! 👉I kept with the week 10 late bloom nutrient mix using full line of General Hydroponics Flora series Drain to waste feed chart. By the end of the week the plants run-off began to change. The ph and the EC began to rise. I did a low EC irrigation followed by a low volume fertigation, but the pH never dropped as low as it did during the previous weeks. By weeks end it was averaging 6.2 in the run-off. I surmise this may be an indicator that changing to the Ripen mix near the end of the week was the right timing. This is just stoner assumption....zero research.
