We are just about done with week 6 and my colors didn't come in. Damn damn damn. :(
Nothing negative to report on the week. The girls are looking very healthy in my opinion. Of course I was expecting more from them this week. More trichomes and coloring. I really hope we continue to gain size over the last week weeks.
As far as my defoliation. I took a few leaves every few days so I wouldn't stress the plants too much.
My pictures still need some work. I have been trying some different lighting and lenses but still need more practice. I feel like I maybe got a couple decent photos out of the 46 or so I took.
I often intervene on several of my seeds to get the seed shell off. I’ve only ever damaged one, and learned from that. It usually helps to get the area wet, and let it soak for just a few seconds. There’s a layer underneath the hard seed shell that is like a membrane that is not pliable at all when dry, but once you wet it, it is easily maneuverable. So I usually get tweezers and carefully take it off.. but only if it’s obviously stuck on there good. A lot of times the seed comes off but not the membrane.
Ps- I don’t mind ILGM bland seed bags, I’d rather money poured into good genetics rather than advertising on seed bags
Good luck!!
