Creme de la Chem - Mephisto Genetics

Day 49: Nothing much to report on, I'm leaving for a few days and wanted to post a pic before I left. Will check back in on Sunday. Day 51: I am back from my trip and have watered with 4L of ph'd tap water. More and more trichomes are being scattered around the various fan/sugar leaves near the bud sites and I am noticing more orange and purple colors! Super excited to finally see some of the genetics shine through on this plant. Day 53: I am seeing some fan leaves getting some purple on them, and more colors around the pistils on the bud sites themselves. Looking great and healthy! Day 54: So after much deliberation I went ahead and did one final defoliation. My goal was to expose as many bud sites as possible and to then go and readjust my LST lines to spread out the buds as much as I could. This plant grows like cabbage with the way she's all bunched up and bushy. I also watered with 4L of ph'd tap water since she was dry. She smells like weed but I don't think the flavor profile is quite there yet as the smell is nothing crazy unique and more of just a weed plant stench. I did notice literally 1 or two fan leaf tips turning brown which I'll be monitoring as the days go by.
