18/08/25: Last update before harvest, just about a week to go! Both plants are nearly ready and the differences between them are really starting to shine. One has taken on a stunning red hue over the past days, while the other has faded almost completely, signaling that itโs in its final stage! ๐ The aroma in the garden is intense now. The reddish, Indica-leaning pheno is absolutely dripping with resin and carries a distinct spicy, earthy scent. In contrast, the second plant has focused heavily on bud growth, with a massive main cola and a sweeter, more tropical fragrance. The bud-to-leaf ratio isnโt ideal, but I think that is to be expected when running autos outdoors at 52ยฐ latitude, where the climate can be a bit cool and unpredictable. Still, I could not be happier with how theyโve turned out! This being my first time growing autos, itโs been a really rewarding experience. ๐
Also so far I didn't encounter any pests/mold, no issues at all...fingers crossed it stays that way for this last crucial week before the chop! ๐ค๐ผโ๏ธ
