Mephisto Show Grows 2023 Mephisto Sundae Thumper ...Show Grows 2023

9th week update. Mephisto Genetics Sundae Thumper #1 is 68, #2 is 63. They've been at 6 grams per gallon of MegaCrop 1-part for a week, and seem to be handling it. That's the maximum feed concentration recommended by GreenLeafNutrients. The aroma is a little out of hand, as even with the exhaust booster I catch an occasional nose-full upstairs. I tend to let them go as long as possible, but since this is a test, maybe I'll chop in 2 or 3 weeks:

Eleven colas each, unless I missed one. Both are probably due for a trim:

Here's the 10-week Mephisto Genetics tester update. Sundae Thumper #1 is 75, #2 is 70. I've been picking leaves off #1 as they start to get brown. Senescence or Nitrogen toxicity I don't know, but the buds are looking close to ready. The leaves on #2 have stayed green. Trichs are getting close. I think I could chop any time. If they're ready at 11 weeks in coco, they would probably be 9 weeks in soil:

Day 79 was harvest day for Mephisto Genetics Sundae Thumper tester #1. This was one of the stickiest plants I've grown, and the resulting ball of finger hash barely fit in the pipe bowl. The sweet aroma has permeated the whole house even though the exhaust exits well above the roof. Vaping a little bud that came off while pulling off the fan leaves had a flowery candy flavor. I've been busy til 3 hours past bedtime, so no couch-lock here. Here's her final side view, a top view from day 77, a very chunky cola, and a dozen branches hanging. Tester #2 might take longer to finish, not a hint of fade yet.

Tester #1 has settled in at 62% in the Grove Bag, time for a weigh in...

She smells right in line with what you'd expect from Gelato 45...​

What a beautiful lady. @stan_mephisto and the Mephisto Genetics team knocked it out of the park once again..Well done Mephisto Genetics, for what it's worth I think she's an absolute winner!

Sundae Thumper #2 is 84 days old (12 weeks). She's looking pretty cloudy, so this is probably her last photo shoot.

Tester #2
Day 74

She beginning so show hints of fade.. Aroma is on par with #1..Opening the tent unleashes an uncontrolled blast of an extremely loud Orange Grove, but a stroke of the stem reveals florals and a hint of mint. All combined she presents to me as a heavenly Orange Gelato...
