Both plants continued progressing through early flowering this week 🌸
Vertical growth slowed but has not completely stopped yet, so the light fixture had to be raised again to maintain proper distance.
• Height now approx. ~110 cm
• Stretch slowing but still slightly ongoing
• Bud sites becoming clearly visible across the canopy
Light intensity was increased to ~950–1000 PPFD ☀️
Environmental conditions remained stable:
• 25.5°C temperature
• 50–55% RH 🌡️
Trichome production began appearing toward the end of the week ✨ Resin is now visible on both the sugar leaves and the bud sites, though aroma is still very mild at this stage.
Phenotypic differences remain noticeable:
• Pheno #2 is slightly ahead in flower development and continues to grow very compact around the main stem
• Pheno #1 maintains a more open structure
Water demand remains high during early flower:
• ~4L every 2 days until runoff 💧
Feeding this week:
• 1x Orgatrex
• Otherwise water + BioBizz CalMag
Defoliation was performed again this week ✂️ Slightly more leaves were removed than the previous week, improving light penetration without causing excessive stress.
Midway through the week, Pheno #1 showed clear signs of hermaphroditism. Initial pollen sacs were discovered and carefully removed. Despite close monitoring, additional pollen sacs continued to develop toward the end of the week.
Due to this progression, the decision was made to remove the plant from the tent to prevent any risk of pollination. The plant was cut down and processed separately, as it was clearly expressing unstable traits.
Overall, the remaining plant continues to develop well, with visible resin production and improving bud formation ?🔥
