Could be better, but the size is limiting factor here.. Original got 6mb.. So it is downsized to 230dpi, it caused itnto blur a bit... so i made crops...
Next time I will make camera ones, those are indeed much better, yet time consuming
thx

If i may, the last pic is 680ko. i think the forum limit is 1mo. so you at 68% max size.
if i may again, you could do crop first then resize to 980ko.( just a suggestion cause i know you have nothing to learn from me) don't take it wrong.
This would result in a slightly better resolution.

My settings of resize are...
crop everything irrelevant
then resize in 1080p or 1440p or 900p(if non detailed)
most of the time i come just under 1mo.
if size still no good, i give it a last resize like 1% or 2%. just to fall under 1mo. it is not worth going above 1440p and under 720p.
I use Paint to crop and resize, also paint don't have artifical tools so you not tempted to alter or filter your image.

I simply get it like cellphone fotos, so not that much in quality, so I treat it like it...
I am using XnView & Affinity Photo, yet I need to manage it better, i think my main problem lays in my export settings 2300x2300px 230dpi / if I set 1400x1400px with 300dpi, it should be much better an dshould be lower then 1mb ...
Good you speak about it, as it maybe direct me to do it properly
I will try it immediately
edit... Well !! It seems better, it was shot fast using camera, not enought time for photoshooting today as plant is going to sleep any time soon, so some blurrish foto merges, yet the export is much better, and it have just about ~250kb so more room to experiment....
I will work on it more....

I know.
I struggled so much, i have tried for hours different settings. Since you and I don't have a Canon EOS 5D or a Pixel6(phone) it is very difficult to render nice pics.

-Day 58-
-still sweet -dought like- smell, but this time some fruity terps are adding to the mix...
-buds are bulking up with quite A pace !
-still no signs of nearby finishing, yet I will be giving lower nute doses from now on
I have made some photo export changes, hopefully for better quality, still lot room left for upgrades, at least in photo size..
The camera had been white balanced, and each photo was made from around 8 focus merge shots.. Still without use of tripod, as not much time this weekend...

It is -day 61- and I would like to try to describe smell profile Iam getting..
Most basic translation would be, that WACO Iam enjoying right now, smells mainly of some tasty-sweet hash-dought, with some fruity undertones.
It is like this, on door opening and smelling the tops, it is kind of special sweet hashy plant, but not like afghans do.
Also, if you touch the plant, the sticky oils left on your fingers are smelling of sour fruits.
Overall kind of sweet, full, mouthwatering, yet not owerpowering smell.
Yes the carbon scrubber is indeed needed, but it is not that punchy-reeking plant for sure, more like fresh baked cake smell.
It is hard to desribe really, yet it is very tasty smelling plant so far for sure.
-I cant wait enought till I taste this beauty-
- do you think there is just 2more weeks needed, as I am ?

26pics macro photo merge (max my lens can make)

-day 67-
-those wonderfull smells still didnt stop to impress me ! I might just tip a litlle piece of some lower bud, so I can taste it...
-trichomes are still making sure to cover each part of plant
-this pheno looks to be 11-12 weeker, so I believe I might just give it as much time as It needs
-yesterday I gave plain water, but I think one more week of full nutes watering should be fine
-what needs to be said, as it cannot be described by photos...
I think WACO, or atleast this pheno looks very critical to my eyes..
It is some serious heavy-weight mass !
Lower buds are just slightly smaller then upper parts of plants.
I expect, one cured lower bud to be about 0,7g from my experience to say...
The main tops, I cannot guess right know, but seems really promising for one plant !
Here some overall look at upper part of main branch
Some macro shots of buds
Some more detailed main bud shots
And lastly, some lower photo
