Soooooo, to start off with this is the Orange Gasm. She went almost 11 weeks and I decided to take a few limbs to test. I ficured around the crowded top would be best so I snipped one and there was this nice brown fuzz growing. I lost the whole top to the outside ferment bucket. This was the stuff well away from the issue.
This got me off my ass. I have been lazy with pruning since I have a use for any larf and I want to see how the plants do naturally. Fuck that. I pruned the hell out of anything that needed it, including taking nugs off plants 6 weeks into flower if it was crowding. How much smoke I need off each plant is minimal. Getting it all to harvest is major. So this is the closet now. Irene the mom has 4 tightly crowded spires but the buds are airy because I left flowers all the way to the bottom (some got removed). But I also have two more Irene in flower. I damn sure don't need the extra smoke so I am pruning the last two harshly. Took down the two lowest limbs on the Ducks and lots of the lower stuff.
The Lemon Tree didn't even make it 7 weeks and is hanging. Beautiful plant that finally hit that look after the solstice made it turn. The second round of pistils started punching through
She had that powdered sugar look up top, and zooming in just looks amazing. It all went opaque at the same time, and only a few are hitting amber. The clone will be vegged out a lot more.
Here's what's left, with the almost naked Irene in the middle, the Catpiss on the shelf also got a major pruning.
The talls and the newbs. The Big Bad Wolf is the only tree. Big jurassic leaves, and the stem is crazy. It is maybe pencil diameter at the soil, then it widens to about sharpie thickness 6" up. I gave the stem a pinch to knuckle it up and slow the stretch a bit.
Veg is reduced to the Chemdog tree still debating cloning or a long veg. the Chromatic front right has 6 limbs and will flip when they stretch a bit.
The Lemon Tree clone is taking off after I pruned it, but the two Bees Knees have almost no secondary growth. Might shitcan thjem just on spec.
The early poppers look good. I planted the seeds a little deeper, had no helmet heads so far, but I am also giving them a bit moretime before I excavate.
