Back on track after the power has been fixed. Started training the plants trying to get the undergrowth to come out and match the main stem. Amazed how quickly the plants recover and start pointing back towards the light. Started by bringing down the main stem. Just started to pull the main stem around a little bit and also pull out the undergrowth as they've grown very quickly since the main stem has been brought down. Fed the plants with 500ml of the mix on Monday and then a litre of the mix on Thursday probably will give them another litre on Sunday depending on the soil dampness. Everything seems to be going well! If anyone has got any tips on the best way to bend the plants please let me know as I'm kinda guessing but think its going okay. Bought a PH pen also as that soil probe I had was rubbish. Biobizz says their soil stays around 6 pH but I'm worried about buildup so might check a bit of runoff at some point. Plants starting to smell a bit nice citrus smell and classic bud smell when you open the door. Plants are starting to really smell now, accidentally ripped a few leaves with lst probably should have started earlier than I did as there is so much undergrowth now and the stem is getting pretty firm its hard to bend it over a lot

Watering- Enough to saturate the medium but only when dry (To test if dry poke your finger into the soil about an 1"-2", if dry you can water. Second way of telling if dry is by lifting your pot as if its full it will be heavier than when dry.. test both so you know when its dry. In terms of nutrients, use 1/2 the recommended dose of the nutrient line you use, and in some cases 1/4 strength then work your way up little by little. The first 4 weeks you shouldn't need to use any nutrients as your growing in soil which already has enough nutrients in to last you the first 4-5 weeks, some cases, 6. You'll know as your plant will show signs of deficiencies if it neeeds nutrients, then would be the best time to act upon using them as you don't want to over feed with nutrients and get nutrient burn which will slow down your growing process. Thats just a short answer, any help required.. drop me a message. Hope this helps.

As this is my first grow I'm unsure about when is best to harvest. Is the best way to go by the colour of the pistles? Also if anyone has any idea how long they reckon until its done? Need to move out next weekend 😩

When roughly 2/3 of the pistils have turned red and retract is an ok indication. It is best to go off of the trichome colors however. You can look at the trichomes a few different ways. You can take a photo and then zoom in on the photo, for some people the camera is good enough that they can see the trichomes up close. Another way is to buy a jewelers loupe that has 60x magnification. Or a digital jewelers loupe. You want most of the trichomes to be cloudy white in color just turning to an amber color. I find that this gives me an optimum desired effect. Good luck!

Hi @Jallow! Pistils can be a clue, if you noticed that new pistils have stopped appearing and old pistils have almost all turned red and curly, but the best way to ensure it's the right time is to look at the trichomes with a magnifier/microscope. Clear/Transparent/Skinny trichomes mean it's too soon, Milky/Cloudy/Fat trichomes mean the harvest window is open, Amber trichomes mean the harvest window is ending, and THC is degrading. Looking at your last pictures, I think you're 3 to 4 weeks from harvest. I'd recommend to keep on feeding for at least 2 weeks, then give it a good 10-15 days flush depending on the trichome's evolution. Hope this helps, I'll be around, keep us up-to-date and happy growing!

It looks to me like they need 2 more weeks at least; the calyxes still have to swell and the pistils have to retract and turn red. The calyxes are the seed pods, in this case empty, when swollen they give the buds their fat look.
