Day 115-63

The tall branches have started to pack up, but they're still late compared to the other plant.

Trichs on exposed plant:

My guess is I'll be harvesting plant #2 before plant #1, and I'll let finish at its own pace.

Why are some trich so thin and amber? Or is that something else?

So sorry SME, completely forgot about linking rule. I figured since I was linking to a direct image instead of embedding it that it wouldn't matter. Nice to see the rules loosening up a litte :)

Today's update:

Day 116-54

A comparison between the stressed out plant, same tall branches today and 7 days ago exactly.

They've really started to fatten up. The sense of scale is loss here unfortunately so it's difficult to tell, but it's very visible to the naked eye.

The top of the branch on the right started flowering aggressively.

And the smell has started to pick up... it's DIVINE. OMG. I was expecting to get a stinking skunk kind of odor. But not these ladies. Cinnamon, pine and citrusy undertones that is overall quite pungent and pleasing.

I really can't wait for the first taste. The smell is mouth watering.

On a scale of 1 to 10, my patience level has increased to 50.

Hey Psu! Nice to see you drop by :)

I posted pictures of a particular bud a few times in my journal, one that was further along than the other because of how it came out sideways from the net and got more light exposure?

Well, I checked on it this morning and the thing has "swollen" to almost double its size in 3 days. It was already the fattest bud in the tent, now it's just so dense and packed! Wow! I guess this is what people meant when they say buds pack on the most of their weight in the last 2 weeks?

It looks amazing. If all buds swell like that I should have a kickass harvest!

Packing on the weight! Bud is 10 inches tall from net to tip.

Nothing to report for now, just growing.

In preparation for harvest, I ended up getting a 5 gal. bubble now and 5 bags (220 micron, 160 micron, 73 micron, and 25 micron) since I found a good price for 'em.

A friend of mine has easy access to dry ice, so I should be good to make some bubble hash.

Day 122-70

It's been seven days since I last posted a trich update.

Today is day 70 of flower. According to Serious Seed's website, Kali Mist flowers in 70-90 days, so hopefully, I have no more than three more weeks of flower here.

The trichs are looking good but unless I am mistaken, this does not look ready for harvest.
