So I'm writing this on the 26th after I came back from my week-end and things are pretty awkward to my sense. Trichomes are now fully developed and ready for harvest but we're still missing 3 weeks from the flowering time prescribed by the breeder.
I know I should be giving her 48h of darkness but things are complicated here and I don't think I'll be able to do it. Too bad but she's still pretty enough for me and even though she's not at her maximum potency, I'll still be happy to enjoy her effects. Please forgive me master :( Forgive me also for not having the patience to take good trichomes pictures, my phone and loupe really don't like working together.
So I won't have the chance to give her the overdrive or flush her but then again if I wait more, I'm risking loosing even more potency.
I live with a cat and I love him to death but that long haired motherfucker left quite a lot of his hairs on my precious buds. So something I never tried, I'll wash the buds in a baking soda and lemon juice solution before drying, in hopes of removing any impurities.
My mind is set, we chop tonight.
