Beginning of week...
7 days till chop! Can't wait! Gorgeous pinks, reds, purples and blues all throughout the canopy.. I'm guessing the pH issue I've been having helped bring them ALL out lol.. I hear blues come out at lower pH.. Purples come out at neutral pH and reds come out at higher pH.. I may have that backwards.. But that's the idea of pH and the colorful calyxes. I was gonna flush with nothing but cold water in the PM.. But that's alot of work.. And she already has some nice colors.. Blah..
Mid week..
Such a colorful plant.. Can't really see it underneath all the trichomes lol.. But you can literally find every shade of every color cannabis plants produce.. Gorgeous pinks.. Bright reds.. Dark blues and purples.. Trichomes are kinda trippin me out.. This part always kinda gets confusing to me.. And the foxtails help add to the confusion.. They say not to check the trichomes on the foxtails because obviously they are newer calyxes and the older calyxes are the ones we are going for since there are plenty more of them.. But alot of these foxtails already have quite a bit of milky/cloudy trichomes.. That's how my ILGM White Widow autoflower was too.. I wonder if the same genetics were used for breeding in the ruderalis genes.. Idk.. But on the older calyxes I can see a few amber, alot of milky/cloudy and a few clear. She should be getting chopped right on time.. I could push her another week.. But there are a massive amount of nanners.. Ive tried plucking as much as I can.. But the next day I see more.. Sucks.. I just want to get her down and into drying so I can clean out this tent and equipment and set up my 2x4 tent with my Optic SLIM 320H. Can't wait.. And I can't wait to taste the Zainbow (Rainbow.. But with a Z.. Idk lol).. One more update then I'm cuttin the power to the lights and probably not going to water her either till harvest.. Guess we shall see what move I make when the time comes.. Story of my fuckin life...
Almost end of week...
No pics for the end of this week.. I started the 48 hours of darkness before harvest.. Lets see if it does anything... I wantered her this morning.. I cut the lights out at 5pm.. So she got 12 hours of light today instead of 18 hours.. Thus.. Beginning the 48 hours of darkness before harvest.. And it should line up perfectly.. I'll be home at 5pm to chop, trim some, hang and begin drying!!! So happy! Next update will be the harvest!
End of week..
No pics.. No update.. She has been in total darkness for exactly 24 hours (5pm).. She hasnt been watered or even peaked at once.. Tomorrow at 5pm she gets a quick photo shoot amd gets chopped, a little trimmed (just the fan leaves) and hung to dry! Got my drying area ready for take off!.. On to the... HARVEST!!!!...
I have this autoflower that is growing really slow. Everything seems perfect as far as health, lighting, temps, humidity, pH (including runoff), PPM (including runoff).. She has been growing slow since day 1... Why??? Pic is 8th week from seed.
Looking @ your weeks she has been looking fine. There has been lots of growth. You have done lots of training to her. That helps to keep her short and aids in new growth from below. You wanted to keep her short and you have done a good job @ that. Gl the rest of the way.
