At first glance it looks like there's nothing wrong with this plant, the bottom most leaves are still green, but it should be a lot bigger. I've grown this strain a lot, it's Cinnamon. I go to 12/12 when the plants are about waist to belly high in buckets, and they normally stretch to 2/3 more in height, sometimes hitting the ceiling. This plant just seems to be too small.
Also, the pistils normally all stay white forever with these, and most have already turned. And look at the top cola! It's nothing. That should be cucumber sized by now.
To be honest, I totally forgot how old this plant is, and I don't go by trichs; I can't hold the microscope steady enough, so I harvest when bud growth has stopped, which these seem to have. It's just that these are extra high yielding plants that pile on bud mass, so that you have to tie them.
The thing though, this isn't just the same strain I've been growing for 10 years, it's the same genome. I've done lots of crops with cuttings, had a mom, and there have been two times when it was in seed form; the plant grew a single male flower and produced a seed. I understand when this happens, the sprout is genetically identical to the parent, essentially a cutting. This plant is a sprout of one of those seeds.
Do you think my problem is this genome has just outlived itself? I'm not doing anything else different except using tap water instead of RO water, and I might have given it too much Pure Blend Pro to try getting it to grow more, but from what I understand it's hard to use too much PBP.
Thanks for reading.
