Hello Everyone,
I'm feeling super motivated today about the cannabis plants.
This is definitely turning out to be my best grow ever.
Let's get right into the photographs.
As I type this post, we're heading into day 35 of flowering.
The projection is somewhere between the 17th of October to the 24th for harvest.
I think it would be cool if I can push them until the 28th of October because that day is a full moon and I feel like it would put some magic into this fire crop.
This would definitely be pushing it though, and maybe the Miracle Mack's could benefit from a little longer flowering time than the Big Mack Superstars.
We shall see. I won't push them further than what is beneficial for an even coverage of milkly/amber trichome coloration, which should be about 50% of each at time of harvest for optimal psychoactive effects.
I strive to produce extremely strong psychoactive effects, so the trichomes dictate everything in this regard.
Despite my excitement levels being very high, there are some concerns...
The humidity levels have been higher than I would like to see with all of this dankness. 60-75% humidity has been the norm for the past few days and this could cause mold problems.
I turn on the AC at times to combat the high humidity.
There's been some reports of mold happening in this region lately so I really must keep a heavy eye on it.
Even if I have to push them a little colder, that's a small price to pay for a large loss of quality cannabis.
Even the bud production under the netting is explosive in a surprising way. I've decided I'm not going to do any defoliation to the end plants because they are growing in a shocking way with very green foliage from top to bottom.
I still do not expect the buds to be as massive as the center Big Mack Superstar plants, because they are much larger right now, and has been the case consistently through this clone line.
But that does not mean the Miracle Mack's on the end might not rival the production due to a large undergrowth of bud.
This is going to be really awesome to watch over the next few weeks.
I find this blood red coloration in the foliage veins to be super cool.
According to my research, this type of coloration in the stems and veins can be signs of issues with the plants, but is normal during flowering with certain genetic lines. The key aspects to look at are stress on the foliage in forms of curling or extreme discoloration, and if everything else seems to be looking great with red coloration in these areas, then everything is likely good to go.
In this case my diagnosis is that everything is just fine with these plants, but I will further monitor this just to be on the safe side.
Aside from some staggeringly breathtaking trichome coverage at day 35, the aroma is extreme.
While typing this I realized I left the tent fan off due to the pungent smell that started filling the house. Without the air flowing in the tent, it seems to build up and seep out in a very strong way, so I have to maintain good airflow. This also helps combat against the stagnant conditions that give way to mold as well.
I was really feeling it today during the photoshoot.
I had some heavy metal blasting while taking the photos and was really enjoying myself.
Did you all know that cannabis plants enjoy heavy metal too?
Tell me what you think in the comments please :)
Thank you for stopping by!
