- Week 11 -
----- Day 71 ------
The end is in sight.
The trichomes are slowly turning amber/purple inside. and a lot are cloudy.
No more fertilizer until harvest day where I will use floranova grow to induce leaf growth when i switch them back to 18/6 with Metal Halide at 600 watts.
I'm going to guess day 75-77 harvest.
----- Day 73 -----
Back Wedding Cake was ready for chopping. You can see from the 60x micro more mature amber and drying mature trichomes than cloudy/clear.
Front is not, Going to chop day 77. More cloudy/clear and round trichome heads then mature and shrunk.
This is a huge yield. not going to guess but Harvest number should be by far the largest I've ever grown.
----- Day 74 -----
Today Im gonna sample the Wedding Cake harvested yesterday.
I hope it knocks me the hell out to my couch with a bat to the face of intensity.
Time will tell.
Probably no update on the high till tomorrow lol.
----- Day 75 -----
Okay, last plant will be done Saturday. Trichomes are mostly ready, 48 hours she's cut worthy.
I wont be updating tomorrow, there's no point.
Saturday should also have some more of the Day 73 Wedding Cake (from here on known as D73 WC) dried for a better smoke report (yesterday I just passed out) but I don't expect them to be dry for at least a total of 7-10 days and it's day 3 today. (they're fuckin fat and DENSE so it'll be a longer process to remove the interior moisture)
Last water feeding for them tomorrow. Next time they're ready for water I'll be feeding FloraNova GROW to assist in the transition back to 18/6 Vegetative 600 watt metal halide that will start the day after harvest (Going to give a full 24 hours after harvesting before changing light cycle. I've learned to NEVER double up stress on plants. It's like breaking the law, you never break another law while doing the first one, it exponentially worsens everything.)
After harvest expect a Veg week by week addition to this grow, and then once my lab results come in from Tropicanna I'll set up a distinct diary for it. Then once the Wedding cake is done and results from lab are in i'll do the same.
*** Update ***
I put the time on for lights at 13 hours today instead of 12. That will continue for 7 days. It'll then go to 14 hours lights on for 7 full days with HID light before switching finally to MH @ 600 watt 18 hours. This is a technique I hypothesis will help ease the transition period back to veg.
----- Day 76 -----
Here's a nug shot. Lied about not updating today.
Harvest tomorrow.
----- Day 77 ------
Harvested today.
Here's some pics.
Fed FloraNova Grow - 800ppm 6.4ph 8 liters to start the reveg journey.
Tomorrow i'll be adding a new week - Veg - as lights will be going to 14 hours during that week which I will use as a transition for 7 days before jumping to 18/6 until re-flower in probably October.
Harvest info will be 7-10 days from now unfortunately folks.
Shits thick and therefore lots of spaces for water to be hiding and needing to be dried before curing.
Smoke is real nice. super clarity followed by ocean waves of distraction and spacing out.
