The buds on the ladies 52 days into flower look and smell great. I would say Wilma's is smelling heavy earthy and slightly citrus-piney and Wanda smells more citrus-piney than earthy if at all. Some of the cola tips on Wilma are showing a slight fade/nutrient burn, I'm not sure really what it is but I'll confirm no spreading occurs. Their trichomes still appear mostly clear, I'd say around 90% clear and 10% cloudy with almost no amber ones.
These Wilma clones have been really gaining mass and responding well to mainline training. On day 79 for them, I defoliated and stretched the growth nodes closer to their final positions using scrap electrical wires and thin rope to tie/hold the growth down. On day 81 for them, I defoliated more and was able to position the colas into their final positions. I am noticing one clone is growing much slower. All clones are trained for 8 colas now. I haven't decided if I should use netting to support their colas or if I'm going to try the tomato cage again. I am feeding the clones 5 mL of CalMag, 4 mL of FloraMicro, 4 mL of FloraGro, and 1 mL of FloraBloom about every watering. Around once a week only 5 mL of CalMag.
The clone that's outside is 106 days old. I placed her outside when she was 64 days old. She seems to have adjusted well to the outside elements. I have been mainlining her and she is currently at 16 main colas. This clone has almost no symmetrical growth nodes. She is getting less babied than the plants that are inside, but this one has all summer to grow before she flowers. I'm expecting her to become a huge bush with such an extended vegetative growth period.
I finally have an update on the Carolina Reapers I started with Wanda and Wilma. The reapers aren't all the same age, so I will just say they are all about as old as the oldest one at 123 days. I took a picture of the largest pepper I could find on the plants, but there are a lot of small ones starting to appear everywhere. Super excited to make some sauce with these lol
@Victor0989,
Yep, I placed mine in the substrate on Monday and today (Friday) they are just starting to peak above the soil. I'm expecting them to be about an inch by Sunday or so.
