Week 9: Post-Vacation Bloom & Humidity Vigilance
Update: 22.07.2025 | Day 70
Back from vacation - ladies made huge progress! Weather shifted from hot/sunny to rainy/humid (22°C). Mold prevention is now top priority.
Strain Check:
Green Crack
Developed beautifully but has fewest bud sites by far. Buds thicker than others - constant humidity checks essential. Gorgeous structure with spot-on mango aroma. Resin queen: sticky like flypaper to the touch. At least 2 weeks to go.
Forbidden Runtz
Looks fantastic with the best fragrance of the trio. Resin production accelerating, but buds show slight foxtailing (heat stress from previous weeks?). Solid 15-20 bud sites. Should finish in ~2 weeks.
Bruce Banner
Still the star with perfect even canopy. 20+ long candle-like buds forming. Resin/smell least developed but has 3-4 weeks left. Critical: Defoliation for airflow to prevent mold in this humidity.
Critical Actions:
-Daily inspection for curled leaves inside buds (early mold sign)
- Reduced Bokashi feeding (1:150 weekly)
- Strategic defoliation: Remove only touching leaves
- LST adjustments to increase branch spacing
- Morning stem shakes to dislodge moisture
Stay blazing, keep growing!
Catch y'all next week,
