🌿 Dark Lemonade Auto - Chop Day is Finally Here! 🍋✂️
Let's get it rolling! What is up, GrowDiaries fam? The moment we have been waiting for has finally arrived. The Dark Lemonade Auto has officially reached the end of her run in the indoor tent, and it is time for the harvest!
📈 The Details / Harvest Report:
Perfectly Ripe: After that final heavy flush with plain water, she is completely finished. Zooming in on the colas, you can see the pistils have completely curled in and darkened to a deep rusty orange. The trichome coverage is an incredibly dense, milky white blanket over the swollen calyxes. ❄️
The Final Form: Check out the full plant structure. She stripped herself bare! The autumn fade pulled almost all the remaining color from the fan leaves, leaving behind a stark contrast of yellow/purple foliage against those chunky, resinous buds.
Tent Flip Ready: With the Dark Lemonade Auto coming down, the Pink Guava F1 officially gets the entire tent to herself. It is finally time to flip the lights to 12/12 and get that massive bush flowering! ⛺
💧 Next Steps:
I am taking her down right now! She will get a light wet trim to remove the large, dead fan leaves before heading into the drying environment. I am aiming for a slow, 10-14 day dry to preserve those sharp, citrus-lemon terpenes before moving the buds into jars for the long cure.
👇 Question for the community: When you are doing your final harvest trim, do you prefer a completely dry trim after the hang, or do you do a partial wet trim to remove the larger fan leaves first? Let me know your harvesting techniques below!
She was a fantastic auto to grow! Let's get her dried and cured! 🌱💨
