UPDATE: Day 1 of week 14- Thursday 19th Nov!!!!
Woop woop! We’re getting close, my magnifying lense arrived and I’ve got my first real good look at the trichomes.. All looking fairly cloudy with about 10-15% ambers coming through.
So as we’re super close now I’ve now started flushing. Not doing a run off as have been using Biobizz soil & Nutes. First flush is done and girls are looking happy. One lady seems to have really heavy colas as she’s struggling to stand up straight. So I’ve staked her to keep her more upright. Think she may bring the best yield of all four girls as it stands so far.
Final couple of weeks now, I can’t believe I’ve made it this far and really can’t wait to try my first home grown bud🍃
UPDATE: Day 2 of week 14 - Friday 20th Nov:
Had to water them early as the girls were very dry after their first flush.. I on average water them every 48 hrs, but they were ready after 36. Already noticing some slight discolouration on the leaves 🍁... Glad I didn’t jump the gun and chop them this week after seeing some amber trichomes..
A bit more LST as they had stretched a little. I’m short on lamp to plant distance but noticed what looked like a little leaf burn on one of the tallest nugs. So did what I could to bring the height of them down just a little 👌
UPDATE: Day 4 of week 14 - Sun 22nd Nov:
As soon as the lights went on today, more water seemed required at around 36hrs since the last flush. The girls seem to be loving it!
Buds do seem to be fattening up a little more each day and I think one girl is slight more ahead than the others as she has mostly orange pistils compared to the other three..
Still need to see more amber trichomes on all four ladies before they’re ready!
UPDATE: Day 5 of week 14 - Monday 23rd Nov:
Small amount of LST to keep the girls as even as poss.. Defo seeing some discolouration in the fan leaves now.. All but one of the four girls have nearly completely orange pistils now which are folding back in to the buds. But Trichomes need to be a little more amber before they’re ready.. The fourth lady however is slightly behind with less orange pistils, some white ones still to turn orange and trichomes are still a mix of milky and clear on the lower buds. When I topped this one it didn’t work as well as the others so she has one really massive cola and all the others are much smaller in comparison to the other three plants..
I think we’ve got a week to 10 days left roughly till harvest.
UPDATE: Day 6 of week 14 - Tuesday 24th Nov:
Another water flush again today.. All seems well, lower small buds still need a few more amber trichomes I think.. But gonna post a question on here to make sure.. Don’t wanna get this wrong.
Sooooooo close now and I’ll be seeing 🤩🤩🤩
