Week 10 – Day 70 🌱 She’s now finishing the last swelling phase of the buds. From this point on I’m giving only plain water and letting the soil dry well between waterings. The buds are not the biggest I’ve ever grown and it probably won’t be my highest yield per plant, but what really surprised me is how uniform this plant is. The buds are very consistent in size and the whole structure is super compact. In my 1m grow box I think I could easily run 9 plants like this. The canopy would be very even and the space would be used much better. Now I’m just waiting for the final ripening and keeping an eye on the trichomes. Harvest is getting close. Terpene profile & trichomes ✨ The plant is not covered with a very thick layer of resin. In my opinion this might be one of the downsides of running a 24/0 light cycle. From my experience it seems to increase yield but slightly reduce the quality, quantity and size of the trichomes. Because of this I recently changed my light schedule to 23 hours. The central light now turns off a bit earlier while the side lights and the 660nm far-red stay on for a short time to simulate a sunset effect. I think this could be more beneficial for the other plants in the tent. With this plant I will also try to induce a bit of mechanical stress to see if it can stimulate more resin production. I’ll document the results in the next few days. The terpene profile is already very interesting. The aroma clearly reminds me of ginger, with sweet candy-like notes and a touch of lime. Very unique and quite surprising. Big thanks to the breeders at RQS for this little gem. And as always, happy growing to everyone! 🌱
