Well this grow is finished for the most part. I'll let the 5th finish up and put her in a jar. The sour kosher is in a jar going through the cure.he blue dream is hanging and some prematurely cut dream (55 days) is in a jar but lacks the scent of the finished buds at 63 days.
To some up strains for a quick review,
Sour kosher: 9/10 Overall my favorite of the three by a long shot based on bud formation, calyx ratio and scent.
Started strong, seed popped in 24 hours and vegged easy no real issues with nutrients. Had little noticeable scent while vegging with nice strong stems that handle topping and being tied down.
In flower she started fast and was first plant with noticeable resin. Had nice tight node spacing, great calyx to leaf ratio, an awesome grape/berry scent, moderate stretch in flower and she got a little purple with low 60f nights.
Her only down side has been late flower bananas but I stressed these three girls pretty hard with the light cycle early in flower and then again with ph shift in mid flower. I had to chop early because of bananas but I took her at about 60 days and she only need a few more days.
So hopefully her clone doesn't herm or else she'll be removed.
Blue dream: 6.5/10 maybe 7/10 Not bad but she did develop mold super easily that's why the low rating
I started one BD seed and it no pop so these is the 2nd blue dream seed I started and this one took 48 hour to pop and was slow for first couple weeks. She vegged easily with low smell during veg.
In flower she did not stretch very much at all, probably the least of all three, she flowers out hefty, has a great hazey with a hint of berry and finished at 63 days.
Downside is she got mold on one of the top bud due to not enough fan actions and she has average calyx to leaf. Much more of a pain in the ass to manicure plants.
5th element: 6.5/10
Started strong, vegged strong but had a real strong skunk odor in veg, you'd need a carbon filter to veg even small plants. Based on how well she vegged I had high hopes but in flower she lost luster.
In flower she did great just too slow of a flower for me, looking at 70-90 day flower, she had descent stretch but then again I didn't tie her back like the SK and BD. Right now at 66 days she has nice top colas, she might hit the quarter pound mark by the time she's done.
Downside is she has no noticeable scent and is a long flower.
The girls are at 49 days flower and look the blue dream and sour kosher look like they'll be done in 9 weeks total or 63 days, might be a little longer. The 5th is gonna go at least 10 weeks easy, she's packing on weight but still no real smell and not all that impressive budding either plus she's a longer flower.
