16th June
We're drawing to a close. I'm not sure how much longer there is to go, we're well into the expected 55-65 day flowering window at this point. It's about to shut.
At this point my past plants would have some mild chlorosis from nutrient burn or lockout, or at least some yellowing of leaves this late into flower as the plant goes looking for resources. I think the huge volume of soil works as a magnificent buffer against common errors. I feel like she really filled out the space we gave her beautifully. Makes me wonder if topping maybe three times might have given us a very interesting result, and much better in terms of light intensity per bud.
I'm used to some chlorosis as a sign I look for that the plant has decided we're at the end of the road. So far, we're evergreen from top to bottom. I'll have to rely on inspecting the individual trichomes for change.
Speaking of the main cola, it's huge. It's fat, it's girthy. Weighty, even. It's a sight to behold. It's also full of mould. See photos, I tried to open things up a bit for the camera. None of the other flowers seem affected. I'm honestly not surprised in the least, but if I knew to open the bud up a bit I would have done so. Might not have succumbed to the creeping grey death. About half of it is salvageable from a hasty first assessment.
Fingers crossed as always. Looking forward to sampling, not long now :):):)
