Flower Area Update
This morning was a Brix foliar spray day (a week overdue) so I drug the girls out of the flower area for photos and spray.
Carnival - 53 days
This girl started in osmocote+ and perlite and was transplanted into soil. She is cannabalizing her leaves but I forgive her after the life she led.
The top nugs are an average size for a Carnival. They might grow a bit more
You would think from the pistil colors of these lower buds that she was done, but her trichomes are clear and well formed. In last year's grow, I harvested Carnival between 68 and 77 days.
Carnival - 71 days
A scrawny little osmocote+ perlite plant, the best of the bunch.
The nugs are tiny. At 71 days they don't look in the harvest window, but I'll be taking her in a few days because I need the space for a Devil' Tit drinking water every 2 days and pushing against the veg area lights.
Lilly - 71 days
Another Osmocote to HiBrix soil girl, Lilly had a hard life too
Her buds are about the size and shape I expect, she's just a smaller plant. She is very sticky. I touched a bud and my fingers looked like I had been handling old duct tape.
At 71 days, Lilly, despite being 93% Sativa, is in her harvest window. Her trichomes are clear, but several of the trichome stalks are elongated and kinked. I'll harvest soon. - I guess osmocote Carnival gets a few more days to ripen, I can tuck the larger Devil's Tit into space opened up by Lilly's harvest.
Guawi - 62 days
Osmocote Guawi has lasted longer than I expected, mostly because had free space under the lights and she is my oldest hempy.
I don't think she will make it to harvest next month (her mother went 93 days.) But s... he might get a chance to ripen her 2-3 grams of bud, her PVC pipe squeezes into small spaces.
Guawi - 25 days
Osmocote Guawi's clone, is a lot larger than her mother. She went into the flower area at 28" tall and has stretched to over 50" tall. She is probably almost done wth her stretch. Scratched worm castings and recharge nutrient bits into the top inch of soil today. I'll water them in tomorrow on watering day.
Guawi doesn't grow the big leaves and she doesn't get me high, but everyone else loves her
Lilly - 21 days
This Lilly is only 30" high, she is putting more energy into flowering than into stretch. She also got worm castings and recharge nutrients today.
I'm very happy with this plant. Well behaved, and very sativa dominant Sativa
Ace - 21 days
I think this is Haze x Kali China- It's labelled and I know it's an Ace strain. She has more stretch than I've had before out of Haze x Kali China
Her shape is wind blown because she sits next to the back fan. I was going to move her forward,but she has adapted to the constant wind, so why shape another girl this way?
The third girl to get worm castings and recharge today, I think she is about to settle into flower production.
All in all, I'm very happy with the flower area this month.
Sounds like fun stuff!
