Harvested the only female exactly 8 weeks after flipping to 12/12 - Cannacopia Lapis Mountain indica. Very small plant at 18". Now I know what they mean by hybrid vigor, cause this and my other indicas have NONE. I usually harvest plants at 4’ - 6’ but with landrace type indicas you need to let them veg for a long time. There was no stretch to speak of.
Plant recovered nicely from a hit of spider mites which I got under control. Leaves remained healthy and green until the end. The only food I used was about 1 TB. of Osmocote Indoor-Outdoor Plus scratched into the top inch of soil. 15-9-12, 5-6 month release.
I put the lower part back under the lights to see what will happen. 20/4 lights.
About a day before the chop I removed most of the fan leaves for the sake of convenience the next day…then out the door running errands like we single folks do.
Lots of dense, sticky chunks.
Note, the buds deep in the canopy that got no light are very nice. I chopped off the top of the plant to take out incriminating background.
I have a lot of loose chunks in an oversized wire colander with a fan on them. Ones hanging have a fan blowing on them too.
