Sweet Crystal Candy Auto XL

👉Trichome hunting season is here! Ive began scouting the plant with the USB micro scope and the DLSR camera with macro rings added to the 50mm lens. Surprisingly lots more cloudy heads than I expected, and a few ambers showing up on the sugar leaves. The aroma is super strong, dank and sweet. The plant is shorter than I expected a XL to be, but the buds are definitely XL! Fat dense pine cones. Ive been watching the tent temperatures and maintaining good circulation. Ive been removing lots of leaves this week and have thinned it out quit a bit. Amazing at how many leaves Ive removed and its still a dense bush of green. Not going to be much larf on this plant, well not larf in the the traditional sense. There will still be some under developed sites on the lower and inner areas. 👉I had intended to do an H20nly irrigation followed by regular strength solution more frequently, however I only did it once. I have slightly reduced the overall inflow and thus outflow, yet the outflow EC remains within the +30% limit. I have also increased the EC of the inflow the last couple of fertigation events. The pH of the run-off has remained at approximately 6.0pH, so Im satisfied the media is balanced. I dont think the plant is using as much water as before, partly due to the large volume of leaves I removed. I switched to the late bloom Mixture on the General Hydroponics mix chart for Drain to waste using the full line of Flora-series nutrients. I may switch to the ripen mix soon.
