This is my second of three planned stages of harvest. It has been 10 weeks and four days into budding and one week since my last harvest.
I’m seeing some pretty good Amber on most of them. For the last third which actually is smaller than a third I might wait a couple weeks till they go totally Amber to see what they are like as sleep aid meds.
The leftovers are looking pretty sparse.
To update the saga of my pH dramedy today I rechecked all my tests and the only significant change is the slurry from my oldest plants that I am harvesting is now up to 6.8 pH from 6.5 pH yesterday which seems pretty high for growing medium. I may have to look into getting some lower alkaline water but before I do go to the hassle or expense I am thinking of just using my whole next crop as a guinea pig and continue using straight water with no pH adjustment. They seem pretty happy except for a few dying lower leaves. I am hoping my first crop was screwed up because I over acidified because of my bad meter and I am hoping that maybe not doing that again, my next generation will be all right in that the pH of the soil won’t climb too high from the alkalinity of my water before they are finished.
So I’m going to try the easiest route first which is to do absolutely nothing different but I admit this pH saga has been pretty interesting to me. I love a good mystery and it certainly is that. I could probably write a couple thousand words on the subject but I will spare everyone.
