Genius Juice – Day 102

We are wrapping up on this grow, this may be the last update before harvest for these four plants. Most of the leaves have turned yellow and dropped at this point. And the buds are getting heavy, enough to start leaning to one side. But with the use of my netting they are still supported and will not fall over. A good sign they are nearly done, packing on major weight in the buds at this point. I expect them to be done by late March at this point.

Crystals are forming on the outside and resin is forming on the inside. I think these are going to be some good buds.

The winner of the four is the one in the back right corner. Nearly stretched a foot taller than the rest. Not sure why it would, got the same amount of nutrients, water and light. I guess genetics are to blame for just how it goes with assuming some of these differences.

A few buds did not stretch through the second netting, but got through the first so they should be fine. Just wish they all grew at the same height.

The smell is quite strong now, and gonna smell a lot stronger when I harvest. Its hard to explain, but its intense and fills the whole house with the scene of cannabis flowers.

Its been fun growing genius juice. Though they did not turn purple as I was hoping, I am guessing its not in its genetics.

So now I check the plant with the microscope every few days. Waiting to see mostly milky crystals along with some amber. Right now they are mostly clear so its got to grow at least another week in my opinion.

Its hard to say if there will be another update post on this grow. As its possible it will be ready to harvest in a week or less. But once I do harvest, I will dry them and then weigh them. And after that I plan on doing a “Guess the weight” contest for this grow.

And once these plants are harvested, I will be starting my outdoor grow.. Indoors. Until the risk of frost is over around late April. So I will get a head start on their grow before I put them out in the ground. Hoping to get at least a month in the grow tent for them before I will move them outside into holes in the ground. From there they will grow until late in the season, since they are photoperoids they should have a long time to get big. And this time I am using a sativa dominant strain. Hoping it has airy buds, which should resist mold. So we shall see how that all plays out later this year.
