Start of week 4 in flower, stretch should slow. Durban poison is 33" tall and 38" wide. I removed a lot of fan leaves opening up the plant to light and air. The addition of another fan has the buds
receiving a nice breeze. The heavy defoliation has not bothered the plant as it drank nutrient solution last night. I am happy with the looks of the new airier plant. With a charcoal filter running there is no odour. April 6 th tonight I'm switching to maxibloom only, no more maxigrow blend. April 10th last day of week 8. Buds are growing. I can see more frost on the sugar leaves. Defoliation was needed, next time i grow Durban i will defoliate more leaves at the pre-flower switch. I hope to get in the groove and get a nice flowering mix going and carry this plant through until harvest. The chain you see in some photos is a measurement to the top light.
@Grassland, It is definitely a beautiful plant, in late flowering you will need something to keep it. Looking at it like this, it looks like it can produce 1kg buds π
