๐ฟ Week 12: Symphony of Growth (Flower Week 7)
Weโve officially entered Week 7 of bloom, and the energy in the tent has shifted. The plants are no longer growing tall for the light; they are focusing all their remaining power into hardening those colas and finishing the resin production.
๐ผ The Vltava Ritual
Iโve introduced a new element to the grow this week. Every morning, as the lights roar to life, I play "Vltava" (The Moldau) by Bedลich Smetana. They say plants react to vibrations, and whatโs better for a flow of life than a classic masterpiece? Itโs become a ritualโthe rising sun of the LEDs accompanied by the rising strings of the symphony. The girls seem to love the high-class treatment!
โ๏ธ Status: The Final Ripening
The Banana Purple Punch Auto is looking world-class. The frost has moved from the buds onto the sugar leaves, and the density is getting serious.
โข Trichome Report: I'm seeing a sea of milky white heads. We are very close. Iโll be watching for that first 5-10% of amber to decide on the final flush.
โข The Fade: The nitrogen yellowing we discussed last week has progressed, which is perfect. The plants are naturally depleting their stores, ensuring a clean, smooth smoke without that "chemical" green taste.
๐ ๏ธ Maintenance & Environment
โข Defoliation Check: The air is moving freely through the canopy after my previous heavy leaf-stripping. No signs of moisture traps or stagnant air.
โข RH: Kept strictly at 40-45%. In this stage, humidity is the enemy.
โข Smell: Overpowering. A thick, sweet, fruity scent that hits you the moment the tent zips open.
Update- week 8 is finishing and that smell is insane, but trychoms are not even cloudy yet ๐๐๐
One love growmies ๐๐ฏ๐ฒ
