Just watered the plants with molasses, plucked some dead leaves, and did some other maintenance around the area.
The Sour Diesel buds are really getting thick and are almost completely covering every stem they're growing on.
The G13/Haze are growing very tall, with lots of bud sites, but much smaller bud development at this point. There are nice bud sites, but no where near as thick and vigorous as the Sour Diesel.
I guess this makes sense, with the G13/Haze having a strong Sativa (Hawaiian Haze) as half of its genetic code. It's funny because the Sour Diesel were supposed to finish much later than the G13/Haze, but it now looks like the reverse may be true.
I've been bringing in extra water for when I have to leave for a business trip for a week and a half. Instead of putting the buckets in the holes I've dug, I decided to fill 10 extra buckets half full of water, and then put the buckets with plants inside the buckets with water in them. Water then filters up into the plant buckets because of all the holes I drilled originally in the plant buckets for drainage.
I experimented with some buckets with dead male roots in dirt, just to see how far the water would filter up, and it gets about 6 or 7 inches up into the root mass. That'll hopefully be good enough for a week and a half.
I'm also going to be putting 1 gallon milk jugs on top of the plants, pricking a few pin holes on the sides, near the bottoms of the jugs, so water slowly leaks out. It's been said that this method will give water for about 6 days using a 1 gallon jug.
Hopefully with these two methods, I'll have enough water for these girls until I get back. It sucks I have to leave, but this trip is unavoidable unfortunately.
No pics or video this go around...the plants look pretty much like they did on Wednesday when I did my last video update.
