She is still at 45" tall and I expect no more vertical growth at all.

However, those branches are young and lean and only beginning to fatten up.

I think those colas are going to be quite fat and productive. The trichomes are only now becoming visible to my eye. The sugar leaves are just beginning to frost up. I think it will take all of August and part of September to ripen it all. I want the most relaxing effects I can get out of this thing, which they tell me is achieved by letting the trichomes reach the amber stage. At least some of them. I'm guessing it will be about 14 weeks from start to finish.
I need to keep an eye out for bud rot. I've had it only once but it was also a Northern Lights Auto grow several years ago. It produced heavy colas but August that year brought some cool, drizzly weather which then brought the bud rot... I guess. I'm hoping for a dry late summer which is normal around here.
