You’re set for success over there, Crunch! Do you think you’ll have any issues with the difference in size between your clones? Looks like some are big and bushy while some are small.
Quick update on this end. I harvested the Tahoe, Mother’s Milk #31, and Santa Cruz Blue Dream on Sunday, day 63F. Here’s some pics from before the chop.
Tahoe continued her wonderful run. She looks a little leafy and there’s definitely room for improvement, but the pics are deceptive because of the camera angle. I was surprised she didn’t swell much in the last couple weeks - not for lack of food it seems - but she definitely did stop drinking completely the last week and must have been done. Great sweet lemony fresh smells with a hint of berry. Very frosty!
Nigerian Rafiki #8 is still going strong, drinking as much water as I can give her. Getting a little color since maybe the middle of week 7, more every day. I did get quite a few nanners starting in week 7 and continuing to now, as mentioned before, but I’m not seeing any seeds so hopefully they’re sterile? I definitely could tell there was pollen in the air cuz I get a little itchy every time I open the tent, but I didn’t see any pistils browning unexpectedly or seeds forming. I guess we’ll see.
Some of the buds are full and some are really spindly. It doesn’t seem to matter how close they are to the light, either, as quite a few lower and side canopy tops are spindly, while many of the ones touching the light are full and dense. Same for the nanners. I can’t really figure her out - she’s a wild child! But I’m drawn to her because she’s so unique.
She smells lovely, a really nice mix of jack and metallic carrot with an undercurrent of DANK. And she’s visibly frosted and swelled up the last couple weeks, as you can see in a few different bud shots.
Santa Cruz Blue Dream has such deliciously strong pine and blueberry scents, she reminds me exactly of the blueberry weed I got in the mid 90s in Portland and on tour. Didn’t exactly wow me with growth, but worth a rerun.
Spellcaster #10 is chugging along, starting her quick finish just as expected. Apparently she’s done done between weeks 10-11, and it looks like she’s speeding towards the finish line. In person, she has a great smell combination of Bandaid Haze #7 and Cascade hops with some dank in the background. Getting really fat behind those leaves, and has started flopping despite having really robust stems.
Mother’s Milk #31 and Dragon Hammer #3 I didn’t get great pics of, but here’s both of them together, MM31 in most of the frame with the DH on the very right hand edge. The MM31 flopped everywhere in the last two weeks, basically laying over bud on bud. Spaghetti stems and nugs that swelled waaaaaaay more than expected is a recipe for horizontal plants. The MM31 is a muted stinky - I wouldn’t call it creamy or powdery like Mother’s Milk is supposed to be; it’s more of a muted OG light lemony perfume smell or something. Not loud, but not lacking either.
The DH has lost some of her sharp smell, but still has a cocoa butter tanning lotion + lime smell and is starting to finally have pistils ripen in the last week. She’s also flopping everywhere and really deserves more attention. We’ll see how the smoke turns out - high hopes for this one which is supposed to run 10-11wks as well :
Here’s the whole tent after harvesting the Tahoe, Mother’s Milk #31, and the Santa Cruz Blue Dream:
Time to spring forward!
