Onto 4th run with Black Jack (Jack Herer x Black Domina sat dom) and just can't seem to improve bud quality.
Nugs on the airy side, taking their time to swell, medium frosty and medium pungency. A bagged lb of this is twice the volume of a lb of my Larry OG.
Here's the last few days of the third run, sat opposite week 5 Larry OG:
All those fan leaves crispy and dropping, and all the autumn shades. Harvest this week.
Cola tops are evenly sized but lacking any real girth; guessing between 2 - 3.5" wide. Only put on visible weight well into week 7.
Calyx foxtailing has occurred on every run, appearing to calm down on this third attempt.
Doesn't stack nugs down the stem but prefers 4-7" cola tops on multiple side branches.
Takes her time in veg but once it gets going this strain loves to throw out multiple branches, and if I let her she will branch twice at every single node. For this reason I only top once early on. Doesn't train well but does veg low and wide with great shape with little to no effort.
She will leave lots of larf and popcorn if not looked after down below.
She also appears to age much quicker, with leaf necrosis coming on as early as end of week 6 but still needing a full 9 weeks to ripen. Those trichs just don't want to turn.
I do not flush, only dial back nutes over final weeks.
She is so branch crazy, in fact, that i've considered snipping every branch but the main cola in veg and top more often instead. Would four main colas produce better than 12 side branches?
At this point I don't seem to be improving on fluffy, airy nugs with a penchant for foxtailing.
Is this just sativa dominant traits or what? Close to cutting this strain.

Setup:
>> All under Gavita 750's at 825w on 12/12 schedule
>> Growing in coco/perlite 50:50 mix
>> 8 week veg, flowering in 3gal pots
>> Sealed room w/CO2, 80-83F + RH50% (RH60% at canopy); night time 70F
>> Root zone temps 72-76F
>> drip drain to waste fed 5 x 1 min per day, total around 1gal per plant per day
>> dry salt fertilizer program maxed at 1.6EC + pH always at 5.8
