Day 53 - ripening up! She’s reduced her water intake down to one or less than one liter per day. Smell is phenomenal and strong - like spicy bubblegum almost although I have a post covid sinus infection so my nose is pretty stuffy still. I’m thinking 2-3 weeks MAX until I chop her. She seems ahead of or right on track for “estimated harvest time” from the breeder. Top colas are primarily cloudy trichomes and some clear and amber. Lower bud sites are cloudy/clear trichs. I think I’ve a tendency to harvest a little early so we will see how long I can push her before I feel it’s chop time. I suspect that will be dependent obviously on the trichomes, pistils and bract size but also overall health of fan and sugar leaves which seem to be fading due to senescence, improper ph maybe and cold night temps. Ordered an apera gs1 ph pen as I’m pretty sure my current pen hasn’t been accurate the past month or so. Also ordered a blumat watering system for next grow (chicken n waffles from Humboldt seed company). My vcure arrives this week so I’m really excited for when I chop this plant and dry/cure her in it.
