Weโre really entering the final stretch now, Growmies. The buds are dense, frosty, and looking properly mature from a distance; exactly the kind of sight that makes you want to grab the scissors already ๐
But the close-ups tell the real story. The trichomes are mostly cloudy, with some clear ones still mixed in and not much amber showing yet. So while the plants look almost ready, theyโre asking for a little more patience.
The Northern Lights are looking especially strong: dark, frosty, and stacked with chunky tops. The Critical is fading harder and still has that limey colour going on. At this stage, Iโm not going to panic-feed or chase perfect leaves anymore. The best move is to keep watering consistent, make sure pH is in range, avoid overwatering, and give only mild, balanced feeding if needed. No drastic corrections this late in flower.
My current guess: around 7โ12 days left, depending on how fast the trichomes turn. Iโll keep watching closely and aim for mostly cloudy with a small touch of amber.
At this stage, itโs really just about not messing it up now ๐
