Trilogy definitely leans towards the indica side. Check out this fat leaf at day 19.

huge nugs for day 30 of flower, how fast does she finish?

Thanks, Yeah I've got 4 of them running now in flower 3 look just like that one in the pic, the last one is short but more frost. This one is the fattest but she's got a sister looking just about the same.
These look like fast finishers... looking like 50 days maybe. Advertised as 56 days, took a while for them to start flowering after the switch to 12/12, like 10 days.... thought they'd never show sex.

Any day now... what medium and if you're using fertilizer what type.. a lot of people that feed the plants chems get too much green leafy plants and not so much flowers. I use organic soil and plants start fan leaf fade at 30ish days in flower and the flowers get colors.
Senescence .... nutrients stored in fan leaves get translocated to flowers, and that is the reason for fan leaves turning light green then yellow then fall off. Completely normal. When fertilizers get used that can sometimes change this natural cycle of the plants. Great for green leafy veggies but not so much for flowers.

Are they f2 Kimbo I assume? Probably harder to find a purple pheno in the f2. I have f1 and have yet to find a nice purple pheno but I'm holding out hope for the nice pheno I have started now. Grown a few in the past that didn't color up much. From what I've seen it seems the leaves are usually more purple than the actual flower anyway.
You'll like it either way. Kimbo is one of my favorite crosses. The starfighter really shines through with the trich production and the terps have been real decent. Nice berry fuel smell to them..
I don't really buy what the other poster said about Chem ferts causing leafy plants but who knows. I use the GH flora series in hempy and get great results. Much better than I've had in soil but I do use both methods.

I mentioned the chem ferts thing because its a thing, doesn't happen to everyone obviously but it happens .... specially over using fertilizers will cause leafy plants....can happen any time there's too much nitrogen available to the plants roots weather is chems or organic.
Why I get my soil tested and dial it in, then water only all the way to harvest. Always gets me some pretty fall colors (senescence) and frosty buds all the way down to the btm of the plants and decent yields too.
Last plant I trimmed the other day was 6 zips dried.. was an Exotic Citrus Berry side buddage pic:

Yeah so it's more so a factor of overfeeding than a Chem v Organic argument.
You've got some nice looking plants. I've always gotten better results with hydro. Yields are obviously bigger but I've personally had better taste smell and overall terps with hydro which is surprising since many say organic brings out the flavors. Ill be doing another organic soil run pretty soon so maybe ill have better luck this time

Yes exactly.... dialing in soil organically same as dialing in your fertilizers.... difference is with organic soil we are feeding the micro herd that then feeds the plant roots. Why it's important to know exactly whats in the soil and why I get it tested every time I mix up a new batch. I have my watering system automated so all I have to do is watch for pests and do an IPM once a week .... about as little work as I can possibly do. Taking pics is more work. I run 2 pots... start out seedlings in #2 nursery pots then shortly before flip, up-pot to 7gal final containers.Yeah so it's more so a factor of overfeeding than a Chem v Organic argument.

I can get 4 runs (about a year) out of my soil in containers with minimal top dress between runs. At the end of the 4th run I recycle the soil into a compost pile and amend with new compost let sit and cycle that back in or use it in raised beds outdoors. Mix new soil, send out soil to get tested .... fill #2 pots and transplant... round and round we go.....
Cost is: my own compost... minerals enough for 5 years $35 my own EWC.... soil amendments $60 enough for 5 years.... VERY low cost. Per run I'd guess >$5 per plant @ 3-5 zips dried per plant 10 plants every 55 days....
^^^^ compare that to the folks that use store bought bottled fertilizers... and them there's the quality difference! Ever wonder why you don't see much organic soil grown weed in the dispensaries??
The dispensaries are not paying the proper price, they do not want to pay the farmer proper wages, but the public will! Some things never change. Support your local organic farmer. I think locally in Oregon, this is changing.... as far as organic grown availability, but it still gets down to paying proper wages. There's no need right now and it's the ways its been for ever, no need for a greedy middle man (dispensary).
