Week 12 Journal Entry: The Grand Finale (Harvest Week)
Project: Tinfoil Hat (Irie Genetics) & Cherry Burger (Equilibrium Genetics)
Environment: 4x4 Grow Tent
Lighting: Mammoth Nova Sun LED (100% Intensity)
Substrate/System: DWC / Living Coco (Final Flush Phase)
Overview & Observations
The finish line has arrived. This final week has been entirely dedicated to a strict water-only flush to allow the plants to consume their remaining stored nutrients, resulting in a beautiful, vibrant autumnal fade across the canopy.
Tinfoil Hat: The trichomes are locking in exactly where they need to be—roughly 15–20% amber, with the rest completely milky. The sweet, sharp chem aromas are incredibly loud.
Cherry Burger: The deep purple hues have completely taken over the sugar leaves. Trichomes are dense, heavy, and showing perfect maturity with a rich, savory, and funky cherry nose.
Nutrients & Moisture Actions
Inputs: Plain, pH-balanced water. 5.8ph
Runoff/EC: Minimal to none; allowing the media to slowly dry out over the last 48 hours to trigger a final stress-induced resin swell.
