Este diario de cultivo sigue el viaje de la Platinum Cake desde la germinación hasta la curación, abarcando un período de 173 días. El cultivador documentó meticulosamente las distintas etapas de crecimiento, incluyendo la germinación, la plántula, la vegetativa y la floración, con la transición a secado y curado. A lo largo del proceso, se realizaron ajustes en el entorno de cultivo, como la adición de luces y la modificación de la exposición, para optimizar el desarrollo de la planta. Las entradas del diario detallan el progreso de los cogollos, la aparición de tricomas, el cambio de color de las hojas y el aroma, culminando en la cosecha y el cuidado posterior.

Buds are all dense and very sticky and smell amazing. They have such a sweet citrusy smell with a back smell of wood or pine.
Did a light defoliation today. Adjusted a few branches in trellies to get more light penetration and air flow. Fingers were sticky afterward 🤘😎💚. They smell so amazing. Been slowly turning down my light intesity as tent keeps getting up to low 80s. After lowering to 96% this morning, temp went down to 79°. Gonna lower another 2% tomorrow. Got a little light burn on Plat Cake. Running out room and cant raise light but maybe an inch or two.
