Admiration of Apes

7/10/20: I was going to water everyone today, but they are all still holding a fair amount of moisture. The Super Skunk Kush and Respect 4 Gorilla are heavier than The White OG and Badazz OG Cheese, I'm going to assume it's because they are located further away from the fan, as opposed to directly in front of it. All buds are looking great, nice accumulation of trichomes. I'm going to pick up the final pieces needed to setup new exhaust. I was going to do it yesterday, but realized the lip on the new fan is very short, with virtually no room to get the hose taped on. So, I'm going to the Depot to get some 6 inch pipe clamps. It's much cleaner than using Gorilla tape anyhow. Also, it should make a tighter seal, as yesterday I noticed the old taped ducting is leaking air in some places. Will only cost a few dollars, but should easily be worth it. 8/10/20: The amount of trichomes I can see is really amazing. Still a faint smell, but I can tell that they will be quite pungent after a few more weeks of flowering. Buds are swelling, and I've noticed a few pistils have already started to turn amber. If I decide to do another 4 strain run, I need to remember to cut back on the length of vegetation, as their is absolutely no extra room right now. If I don't too them at all, or as often, then 4 plants can remain. Otherwise I will be sticking to 1 photoperiod per tent. 12/10/20: Fed everyone a good dose of nutrients. Some branches are leaning over on the Super Skunk and OG White. I will need to stake them to prevent snapping. Contrary to what I was expecting, the Seedsman plants are ripening sooner than the others. That doesn't mean they will be finished first, just that they are starting sooner. The 5th week of flowering is almost over, so bulking up will be what's next. 13/10/20: Found some small garden stakes, tied down two branches of the Super Skunk with two separate stakes, and two of the OG White branches with one stake. I will find more tomorrow, and stake down any other branch bending over.
