The Mandarine Cream is in its second week of flowering and is stretching incredibly. The plant is growing nonstop, and the buds are swelling beautifully. The aroma is becoming extremely strong, shifting to a more citrusy scent, reminiscent of grapefruit. The plant is healthy and looking great.
Ambient Conditions: This week started off warm (with a minimum of 23潞C and a maximum of 30潞C), but a cold front has brought the temperatures down again (with a minimum of 11潞C and a maximum of 20潞C). Humidity remains quite low, around 30-35%.
Training: I鈥檝e kept the main apical tied down, which has resulted in 12 colas. Other than that, I haven鈥檛 done any additional training or defoliation.
Fertilization: I applied one final dose of nitrogen this week and nothing else.
Pest Control: The Beauveria treatments continue, and I no longer have any issues with the fungus gnats that had appeared.
Watering: I鈥檝e been watering the plant very minimally, as the substrate has been staying moist on its own.
Looking Forward: From here on, there鈥檚 not much left to do except let the flowering progress and enjoy the results.
