After monitoring the aggressive foxtailing, I decided to harvest today. There is more than enough for me, there is no risk of bud rot, and the plant was starting to produce small leaves, which are a real pain to trim and ultimately lower the quality of the buds.
This plant would have been an absolute monster if I hadn’t stressed her with too much DLI. I definitely don’t intend to make the same mistake with the other Atlas F1 I have growing.
The only small difficulty was keeping up with the plant’s nutrient requirements. As I was using a 50% perlite mix, I had to use the full recommended BioBizz organic range to keep up with her needs. Even though the plant stressed, you wouldn’t have realised it from the leaves, as they were still perfectly healthy when I cut them off.
She has now been loaded into the Vcure for a 14-day craft cycle. Once that is finished, I’ll be harvesting the Epsilon F1.
I’m hoping this strain will be a suitable replacement for Medical Mass. If it is, I’ll have one growing constantly in my room.
Edit - I just checked and it only took 64 days from seed in water to harvest. That is ridiculously fast.
Thanks for following along with this grow. It has been very enjoyable and a pleasure from start to finish.
