So, whats up all? I have been pretty bored all day and decided I would make a small update and show a couple new pictures.
Things seem to be going well for both plants. Really started icing out the last week. And I'm getting a much stronger scent. So. I see that as a good thing, although, it's hard to cover up. I'm getting some 9 leaf sets and one 11 leaf set. They're both pretty healthy. I few dying and yellowing leaves here and there, but nothing really to be worried about.
So far, no signs of hermies either, which is a huge relief considering all the shit that could have and has gone wrong. Overall, I think things are going really smoothly thus far and I'm pretty anxious to see what happens in the next few weeks. I have been watering about every two to three days lately. Pretty often, compared to my watering schedule earlier in the grow. I plan on continuing nutrients for the next three or four weeks. Then, I'll be using straight water with a teaspoon of molasses. That is, unless someone convinces me otherwise. I've heard so many pros and cons about molasses and there's generally a wide range of complaints, but the pros seem to be very consistent - Better taste and more weight. So. I figured I will try it out and play it by ear.
I've also been doing alot of reading on drying and curing, and I had a few questions. First of all, what do you all recommend? I have read a few things about air drying and curing. I've also heard alot about water curing lately. I have smoked some water cured stuff before and I can vouch that its still dank as hell, but the taste and smell are greatly compromised. What do you think about water curing?
I guess thats the only questions I have at the moment. Gimme your input!!
Anyways, the pictures....
