Cheers, yes I am hoping for a spectacular colour display eventually.
Been close to two weeks and lemon pie is beginning to fill out and fill up those juicy trichomes. The anthers are wavy and creamy and the little calyxes are getting a purple tint in their tips like a siamese cat. Otherwise fairly unremarkable looking. I think the lights have been a bit heavy for many of my grows, I have moved them further away and removed all the dying leaves to open up the green leaves to light. I have begun the next pot in the cycle which I will update soon.

NYC Diesel X Northern Lights & Purple Haze
Dropped three new seedsman freebies one of them, Lemon Auto, lacked the will to do anything more than germinate
, the other two have gone on to be very vigorous if stocky, although the Northern Lights is too branchy for my taste, NYC Diesel looks good. I have installed a new Viparspectra 600 because of it's nice small square 10" shape to fit in the corner of my L shaped space. I now have the three spaced 5 weeks apart and the plan is to harvest once every five weeks
I think I have been using too much concentrated light for a long time, so I am raising my QB96's to about 20" See how that goes.

The new beans at over two weeks old are very different. I decided to top the NLxBigBud at the fourth node, and I also removed the branch that was growing out of the cotyledon, it felt like the right thing to do. Conversely the Purple Haze looks pretty healthy and standard but she has had the first node branches removed and I might take more. Because I have decided that the NLxBB is going to take over I'm going to try and just see if I can get the Purple Haze to grow one or maybe two main stems and now much else, otherwise she'll get swamped, I won't be topping her either.

Since the last major defoliation 3 weeks ago I have been steadily keeping the leaves down, but she's just flipping now and it was impossible to see what was going on so I went in for the fully monty. Took out a lot of stuff, this is where growing two plants is handy, because I was fretting about what to take off when I remembered that the whole point of two plants is so I can take off more smaller branches so that is what I did, you can see the result. Hopefully over the next week or so there will be some stretch and some structure forming.

Lemon Pie Auto is ripening up nicely so that means some Flower Pr0n is coming up...

Snapshot 24 Aug 21
My original intention was to have a three stage perpetual, after realising that the final finishing time mucks things around and because I want to have everything sync on the same day, I have settle on 3 x 5 week periods. So I will compare this situation with exactly 5 weeks from today! At the moment they are 2.5wks 7.5wks and 12.5wks so whatever happens in the final 5 week block, I will always begin the next bean when the middle one hits 5 wks. Not that I'm expecting anyone to give a rat's, but there you go.
So here's a recovery shot on the big kahuna defoliation yesterday,
and here the three girls after a recent reorganisation so I could spread the Lemon Pie out a bit.
I am going go begin making the reservoir last for 4 weeks, I'm in the third week on all three plants, although I do top up with concentrate to maintain ppm if they drop too much.
