c. the smell is good, but am running lower intensity lights as not to burn the terpenes
Day 73 - still drinking 6L a day!
a. she is really ripening up, I will continue to push the ripen, buffering with fresh water to maintain 1000ppm in the pool
b. Her trichomes are about 80% milky, 5% amber and the rest clear still, will wait until I see very few clears left, and not too many ambers, this is where experience comes in. Get a good jewelers loup or a microscope. I will start scoping my buds over the next 2 weeks. stay tuned for the updates.
