That's wild man!
Only time I've seen anything even close to what you have is outdoor plants that were stripped of leaves by hail when they had cotton ball flowers. They lived but developed much the same way yours are here but still got very frosty and was good smoke.
Only difference may have been the stretch in mine was like a vine. Very ropey and almost limp and weak until they firmed up weeks later after the hail storm

These are long and tall and still growing. I've seen this growth only once before in my 4 years.

At this point they get no special treatment. I've been reducing the light and nutes. Here in a week or so i''ll start swapping the reds and blues. I unplugged the heater to save juice. They're not gonna get any more than RO once this top-off is empty. Basically... they're on their own.

Well as fucked as they decided to grow... I think they may finally be starting to stack. Things are getting tighter anyway.

It's a jungle in there...


Messed up structure but they're sticky and frosty as hell...


Perfect nose on these girls and it's exactly what I was after on that side of things. Nasty dirty dish towel terps. Definitely unique. I've only really encountered it here with the Kitchen Sink. It's GMO mom might have something to do with the funk.

Creeping up on the start of week 9. I can't tell, going off of structure, whether or not these bitches will be done by the end of week 10 or not.

They do seem to be done stretching out every damn stem on the plants. The tips finally appear to be somewhat "nuglike". Still plenty of white hairs though


I've stopped pampering them... I did tie one up that decided to fall over. That's what it gets for growing so damn tall and spindly. It's absolutely not an intensity issue as I've got multiple bleached tops.

No heater on in the tent. Temps run between 72 and 76 degrees. Humidifier is off too, running between 35-50% rH. Light Intensity has been dropped way down. It's on the recommended "finishing" spectrum with a little extra blue. 20r:50w:75 blue at the moment. I'll drop some more red out of the spectrum next week and finish mostly blue and with some white. Nutes are around 670-680ppm at 6.3 ph. Top-off has been getting refilled with RO only and is diluted down to 100ppm. They won't be getting any more than they have available right now and hopefully we see closer to 4 or 500 by the end of it.

They are drinking a ton less, which is another reason I assume they're on their way to the finish line. It won't be a fun trim but it does seem to be a heavy yielding harvest. Buds are sticky-trap sticky and the smell is off the chain, though, so I'm not terribly disappointed.

Edit to add: what a crappy out of focus picture

Saw this yesterday on Leafly and made me think of your grow here.
This was from a list of new found genetics people will be working with in 2026



Another, unrelated to yours but interesting IMO, is a new landrace out of Ethiopia.
Looks like something from a 1979 High Times centerfold but I'd like to work with her in a controlled environment indoors and see what happens

I'd toss them and put the clones in

Not getting tossed for sure.

They'll be done and dry by the time I have well-rooted clones that are ready. I'm hoping to get down there and take a bunch of cuttings here in the next couple hours.

These Kitchen Sink plants will do the job. It's just gonna be a pain to trim it all.

Toss this frosty shit??

Yea I wrote that before I saw the updated post, why I deleted it.


They are starting to look good now
