- fine-ass '22 harvest!
~~~{{{ Update Time }}}~~~
...... Mixed news this time,... MOGK99 is done, harvest tomorrow, but I found a small mold spot on the main cola- 
- so gangrene protocol employed! Snip at stems of infected budlets to make a clear zone, then hit with Transport and ATAK to crush the infection and stop it cold- 
... fortunately very minimal loss, maybe a gram or so,... I'm not surprised, foggy nights, dense bud.... the rest looks primo! Orange Diesel is almost done, super fine looking buds and a pleasure to grow-
Cosmic Queen is jar-burping away, aroma shifting to something akin to overripe fruit..?
The photo's are starting to piss me off,... more signs of defc.'s, looking K related...
... pH still fine, but treated with foliars anyway, along with increased the feeds some, but it's not clearing,....11 Roses actually worse--- WTF!,... this transition hiccup shit is painin' me! 
C+2.0 and MoB are showing halt to stretching now that fuzzy crowns are forming, expected in MoB as usual,... small pot syndrome there I think... Grapefruit is doing the best I'd say...
>>> 11 Roses
>>> C+2.0
>>> Grapefruit
>>> MoB
>>> Sex Bud mutie
Just here to watch the masters grow..............
..yes indeed, but mainly during veg anymore,... any foliar, even rain can cause the nice white fresh pistils to brown out,... I don't know if this has consequences to the maturation or end quality of the rest of the floral bract/calyx, but it sure looks like hell,... I still will if there's a significant problem on the outer surfaces, but the problem is, the botrytis spores are already there, in and overgrown by the bud, so even if a spray kills them, more just rain down from the air when outside,... worse, this mold works from the inside out, usually traveling in the vascular system into new tissues, where it feeds, wastes the tissues then it surfaces in the form of spore formation,... I will be using a new product called Armory, a bacterial agent similar to the old Actinovate which will kill the spores, at least so I'm told; the shop guy spoke with the rep, and was told there's more in Armory than is listed, beyond the soil/foliage inoculant).... but again, as buds form, the spores sitting on the surface, inactive, will be overgrown and surrounded by newly forming buds, and it's in that dark humid environment that in part facilitates the spore activation Low T and high external RH% play big roles too),.. the theory of action with the bacterial agents i think is that they too will be overgrown, and will be waiting there when the mold activates and gets mugged! 
... it helps, but it's no panacea IMO,...
- wise-ass! ...thanks Dudeski, but 11R ain't the beauty she was during veg', something is definitely off,... I'd say the Crown is going to Grapefruit now, best looking and performing plant so far,.. she's a good 2 weeks younger than the others, BTW! I saw that she's setting bud finally today, so now it comes down to finishing speed and mold resistance,... that will be a bigger challenge than before because of this new location's microclimate,... the ocean is just a couple-few miles away, no elevation at all either,....
.... the aroma is spot on, orange peely/mild fuelly,... every grow of this shows the same bud:leaf ratio, not the best but who cares! Resins are copious :drool:
Maria bella, thank you, but you know I reject the title "Master" 
Bloo lovie, give us a kiss! You have been a neglectful woman to me, but I forgive,...however much I pine for ya!- 
.... tell me your new name for her, and I promise to whisper it to her seductively,...
