Looks like you have a phenotype close to the SSH Diesel phenotype.
Or is there no smell of diesel or gas? In that case that's another pheno.

A huge mistake happened! Since there was space in the tent with the Angel Heart plants, and this tent had the same light cycle, and one of the carbon filters was no longer working and I didn't have a spare, I decided to put the SSH plant in the tent with the four Angel Heart plants. I'll be harvesting three of those plants in the coming days. I thought it was a great solution. The small tent could dry in the meantime, and the SSH would have more space! I wouldn't have to go and buy a new carbon filter on Monday. Unfortunately, I just noticed that the light was on in the makeshift tent. For a really stupid reason: very sloppy, quick, and messy work. The inline carbon filter I was throwing away was lying on top of the tent, where the power strip was also located. A mechanical timer was connected to it. When I lifted the carbon filter from the tent, I must have accidentally switched the switch on the side of the timer to continuous operation, so that instead of the 13 hours... Darkness, 11 hours of light. The light has possibly, or rather almost certainly, been on continuously for 22 hours, or even 46 hours by now. 
It bothers me less and won't be as bad for the three out of the four Angel Heart plants I want to harvest on Tuesday. But for the Angel Heart where some branches still need a good 14 days, it's really awful. I see it differently with the SSH plant. Suddenly having continuous light in the middle of week 10 is definitely drastic!!!
What would you do with the SSH plant? I even gave her an extra PK booster last few weeks before this stupid mistake! I'm kicking myself!
Serves me right, no sympathy! I want to do it properly. Not like this! Anyway, I've known for a while that this messy way of working just doesn't work. This is the price I pay. I can still manage to keep everything clean. But always setting everything up quickly and frantically! This is probably the just price I have to pay. Everything needs at least a certain degree of order.
Should I keep a close eye on the SSH lady for bananas? Or what should I do? Creating order, obviously.

Just ride it out and indeed keep a close eye to her, with a bit of luck you won't see anything happen.
She looks amazing and special to me, the way she puts out frost is stunning.

I have just seen the whole thread, you are doing awesome!
My case is similar to yours, same tents same leds and almost same good old Mr Nice seeds!
I have just bought 2x Mars Hydro 120x60 tents with fc4000 evo lights, I’ve found old seeds like you on the fridge, I’ve posted a thread here, I’m just starting, I’ve mounted the tents yesterday and starting with the seeds now https://mrnice.nl/forum/threads/10-years-old-nl5xh-seeds-2016.19296/
I hope I can find a nice mother so I can have 1 tent to veg and 1 to flower.
Keep it up! You’re doing a good job!

Thank you so much, @Swifty! Like you said, what's done is done. I need to work more diligently from now on to avoid such unnecessary trouble. Your words were really encouraging! Maybe she really will forgive me. I don't know enough about SSH to know if it's due to extreme frost buildup. You, @Swifty, are the SSH expert! So I trust what you say.
Yes, the aromas can change after curing, but it’s also possible that it’s a phenotype without Diesel aromas; I’ve had a few GTH#1 phenotypes like that—very pronounced citrus notes with no Diesel flavor, or only a very faint one.No, unfortunately, no trace of diesel. It does smell very pungent and intense, but I haven't detected any diesel yet. I wonder if this chemical lemon forest scent—that's what I'm calling the aroma—will turn into a sour, fuel-like note, @Zero0?
If the lighting duration didn't exceed 22 hours or even 46 hours, it's not that big of a deal, especially toward the end of flowering—it's very hard to get a plant to revert to its vegetative stage.A huge mistake happened!

Even more so with vigorous F1s like Shanti's strains.
But check carefully for any hermaphrodites and don’t make any mistakes with the lighting cycle from now on, and you should be fine.

I'm with @Swifty and and @Zero0 and wouldn't worry about it too much. It's not going to revert back to veg, so far into her flower cycle. Perhaps, just keep an eye out for any stress nanners or sacs which may pop up. Not a big deal, you'll still get a great harvest.
Heck, the extra light time might have added some extra weight
. No clue If it works, but I've heard of people purposely switching back to veg hours for the last week to bump up yield and density

Glad to read that I helped a little.
I'm far from a SSH expert, only grew a couple of straws.
I do plan to grow some more in the future.

Thank you all so much!!
That's reassuring. I thought that sativa-dominant plants were very temperamental. At least, I seem to remember reading that somewhere. That they tend to hermaphrodite more quickly than indicas under these conditions. I'll keep a close eye on them.
Regarding the weight... Maybe there's something to that? After those hours following the dark period, every single branch was bent over, even the ones I had already tied up.

I'm now thinking positively about this magnificent genetics! It'll forgive me for my stupid mistake.
The branches don't look heavy at all. Or am I just too clumsy with this plant? The next day, the branches were already leaning on their sides again! Even the lower ones that weren't getting much light.

I'm really hoping for a bullseye. That's what I was hoping for with just two seeds, of course. But I never expected it!Looks like you struck gold there @Schlawiener.
It seems to be staying within a timeframe that's still acceptable for me. The only question is whether it will deliver the desired flavor/effect. The resin hasn't been this sticky in a long time, not like it was on SSH. So persistent!
In any case, I'm very curious about SSH. My expectations are naturally high. Accordingly, it's going to be tough for SSH to live up to them.

A quick update on the SSH Queen!
It seems to me that she'll reach the finish line sooner than expected, thankfully. I didn't have a chance to examine the trichomes today. But the leaves are starting to turn yellower, and the buds keep managing to lie on their sides. They'll need a support net in the future.
I'm on tenterhooks! I wonder if my sister will bring mail today (SSH x Haze AC)

With an SSH, how many trichomes should I expect to see that are amber-colored? Some of her buds are already amber-colored. If I had to give it as a percentage, it would be about 30-50% clear stems, 30-40% milky, and 5-10% amber. I'll mark them and maybe take test buds on different days. Is 30-40% amber too much for an SSH?

I like it more milky-clear but testing is recommended to see were your preference lies.
She looks killer and familiar to me.
