Candy Hustle is now entering week four of flower, and she continues to impress with her incredible resin production. ❄️✨
With the recent heatwave finally over, the environment became much more favorable for flowering.
Temperatures dropped to 25°C while humidity stabilized around 55% RH, creating ideal conditions for healthy bud development. 🌡️💨
This week the plants received one feeding of BioTabs Orgatrex along with one application of Green House Feeding BioEnhancer, keeping the living soil active and supplying everything needed for the next stage of flowering. 🌱
I also removed a few more fan leaves throughout the canopy to improve airflow and light penetration.
At this point, the canopy is well opened up, so this will most likely be the last significant defoliation before harvest. 🍃
The flowering stretch has almost completely finished, allowing the plant to focus its energy on stacking flowers.
Buds are now forming along every branch, and the canopy has become very even with excellent spacing between the colas. 🌸
One of the most striking characteristics of this phenotype is how quickly it started producing trichomes.
Sugar leaves are already heavily coated in resin, giving the plant a frosty appearance much earlier than expected. ❄️💚
The structure remains very balanced with strong stems supporting numerous developing flower sites.
Despite running close to the nutrient limit, only slight yellow leaf tips are visible, while the overall foliage remains deep green and healthy.
Another great sign this week is that Candy Hustle #1 showed no additional pollen sacs.
After the few isolated sacs that were removed previously, no new ones have appeared, which is very encouraging going forward. 🙏
This week feels like the point where Candy Hustle shifts from stretching into full flower production. From here on, the focus will be on swelling calyxes, increasing resin production, and developing her final aroma profile. 🍬⛽
