This week will focus on both BBA-3a and BBA-4. BBA-3 will get an update as she is acting weird.
BBA-3a looks fantastic! Her stacks are starting to fill in. She's grown about an inch so far just from stacking and the last bit of stretch. I hope to see some decent colas with her. She really does look like she is going to be a fantastic plant. I stayed with the 5 ml tiger bloom dose for this week. I'll bump her up next week to 7.5ml and then 10ml the following week. She's also the first one I have grown with actual stacks. I hope this is a great sign.
BBA-4 is so very close to harvest. She has a few amber trichomes on the buds. Lots on the sugar leaves though. I will look into that today. Her buds are dense throughout the whole plant. It's great.
I checked up on the trichomes in the leaves. Just not done yet.

BBA-3 has almost all purple buds. Still no amber trichomes though.
BBA-3a is fantastic! Her stacks are fantastic and her colors are wonderful. Strong branches and fairly well open canopy.
BBA-4 is not done? I have no idea now. I'm just going to wait for a few more amber trichomes. Her buds are almost all purple. Her pistils are all orange now with the exception of a few here and there. Her big fan leaves are all in senescence. Trichomes are turning amber all over the sugar leaves but the buds are still not there.

BBA-3 has amber trichomes finally.
BBA-3a looks great! She's starting to push purple hairs out of her buds. I really hope I get some really nice purple colas. That would be awesome.
BBA-4 is basically done. She's going in the dark tent tonight and will be harvested tomorrow afternoon. The buds are super dense all over the plant. Lots of purple, lots of trichomes. I hope I'm right.

Update: after spending the day observing, taking macro slow motion videos, pictures and the like, BBA-3 and BBA-4 have been placed in the dry tent for a day of darkness. I didn't like the last time I did 48 hours. It seemed to mess the plant up. Or I screwed up. Lol. Either way, they are ready. Moving them out of the tent added a ton of space for the other plants in there.

BBA-3 is in the dark tent. She will be harvested in the next 24 to 48 hours.
BBA-3a has some amazing stacks. I hope she grows significantly more than my other blueberry grows. She looks super promising. I'm not exactly sure what every other feeding is, but I bottom feed. So I add a gallon to the saucer and wait for it to dry out and then a gallon of nutrients, then a gallon of water and so on. Should it be 2 or 3 gallons per feeding? I just keep the saucer from staying dry for too long. I let it dry out at night.
BBA-4 is in the dry tent for the rest of the day. I checked her trichomes and a lot more are amber. I'll check again this evening and will probably harvest tonight or tomorrow afternoon.

Update: BBA-3 day 86 and BBA-4 day 82 were harvested today. Fantastic dense buds.

BBA-3 Day 1 drying
BBA-3a looks great! She has plenty of space for the light to get everywhere. Not much else to do but watch and water. She's taking in about a half gallon a day now. Less than I was expecting, but it's a wicking bottom feed setup. It seems to work really well. I haven't had any issues with over watering now that I figured out how to properly water the seedling into the soil.

BBA-3 Day 2 Drying
BBA-3a looks awesome. She is producing what looks to be some pretty fat buds. I can already feel the weight from the branches. Looking good. She's steady with water intake. Looks great!

BBA-3 Day 3 drying
BBA-3a is stacking nicely. Buds are growing pretty rapidly. Already seeing purple hues coming in. Maybe this grow will have some really nice color. The leaves, however, are starting to all fade. The older ones first and the newer ones are starting to follow suit. Not sure if that's good or bad. I feel like it's a good thing. It just means she is sucking up nutrients from both the soil and her leaves.... I think. I'll have to keep an eye on it.
