Nov 3 (day 64): Start of week 10. Thanks to Amazon next day delivery, I now have a handheld pocket microscope device which was recommended on a few sites. It has a built in LED light and is longer than the jewellers loupe, so at least you don't need to get quite as close! Still suffer from the shaky hand and fan issues as you have to stay super still to get a good position and view of the bud. Don't have any trichomes to view on her yet though. Nov 4 (day 65): Something is badly wrong ๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿ˜ฑ The issues I found with a few leaves 2 days ago seems to have been just the beginning! Now there are lots of yellowing patchy leaves that fall off as soon as you touch them and some other green leaves warping into weird shapes! What the hell is causing her leaves to look like that?!? As always, her sister Orla is fairing much better. I noticed the same with Ophelia and Wendy - Ophelia the other Orange Bud, is so much hardier than her sister Wendy the White Widow. Perhaps its the strain and White Widows are just fussier?! I don't know what to do for the best, so I am just going to carry on regardless and see what happens. Fed with 2L of water and week 6 of the nute schedule, microbes and Calmag. Stress Level: 9/10 ๐Ÿ˜– Nov 5 (day 66): She is looking even worse today ๐Ÿ˜ฐ๐Ÿ˜ข Yellowing leaves which are crisping up and continuing to fall off. One of them has mould on the back!? Surely it cant be powdery mildew?! None of the other plants are showing these signs, so it seems odd to just get it on only one leaf?! I have hit the research and I am struggling to determine what the issue is. Yellow leaves are a sign of nitrogen deficiency, but I don't understand why that would be happening 4 weeks into the flowering period?! Could be a calmag deficiency, but would that really cause those weird warped leaves?! The only thing that makes sense at the moment is cold shock, as I have done a couple of waterings outside of the greenhouse. Basically, its really difficult to water airpots unless you water really slowly, as it all comes out of the side holes. So you have to water in the middle of the pot and very slowly. If I feed all 4 plants in the same period, it takes 30-40 minutes. Another aspect is that I have tried different ways of watering before. If I water too quickly or with the watering can shower head, a lot of water comes out of the sides of the pot. This is good in the long run as the plants won't get waterlogged, but all the excess water on the floor of the greenhouse spikes the humidity levels by at least 10%! As I don't want bud rot, I don't want that excess water causing issues. So I tried taking the plants out of the greenhouse and watering them there, so any excess water isn't inside the greenhouse. This makes watering much quicker, but does expose them to a blast of cold air and its now getting really cold outside. 5C or so in the evenings when I am finished with work. Looking at the symptoms of cold shock, they do seem to fit the bill. No more watering the plants outside! Hopefully she will recover. I am going to remove the yellowing leaves and hope for the best. Stress Level: 10/10 ๐Ÿ˜ต Nov 6 (day 67): She's looking a bit better today so lets hope she is on the mend! Thirsty AGAIN...I even checked with the moisture probe and she is dry all over the pot. Fed with 2L of water and week 7 of the nute schedule. Fed her INSIDE the greenhouse where its warm this time! Nov 7 (day 68): Still looking ok but not perky enough for my liking. Maybe she is just recovering...? Why didn't somebody warn me that this whole experience would be a total head fuck of confusion!? Nov 8 (day 69): She's looking really sorry for herself again and her leaves are drooping badly. She also has yellow edging around a couple of leaves which look typical of nute burn. I've read so many articles that say its REALLY difficult to get nute burn with organic growing, so I don't understand what's going on. Maybe it is a Calmag issue like Wendy had after all? I did cut the Calmag out for a few weeks on the advice of BioBizz. Confusion Level: 10/10 ๐Ÿ˜ถ Nov 9 (day 70): End of week 10. I started a 'flush lite' on her sister Ophelia yesterday and I noticed she's looking good today and has a number of leaves praying upwards. Makes me wonder if the 2 litres I've been feeding them wasn't enough and if I should have watered until run off each time. As I have said previously, I have had lots of issues getting watering logistics correct within the greenhouse. I bought a huge tray to capture excess water from the flush and this worked well. Ahem - until I couldn't lift the tray full of water out of the greenhouse without spilling it all over myself and the floor that is. Humidity spiked 10% FFS. The joys of greenhouse growing eh ๐Ÿ˜ฐ I decided to give it a try and gave her 5L of water tonight rather than a feed and will see how she looks tomorrow. I also decided to give her a little trim, so I cut away a couple of old fan leaves and also a lot of new growth on the stem. I felt it would be best to trim them off and allow all her energy to focus on the existing buds. Worst week yet...stress, confusion, despair.....need I go on!? ๐Ÿ˜“ NOTE: Nutrient amount is the total amount of nutes given during the week.

@KingSalomonsWeed, Ah I see what you mean. Yes, I think I will move it closer, but the issue is that she shares a light with Ophelia and she is a bit taller. I'm worried if I lower it too much, it will burn the top of Ophelia. I had made a note that it should be 18 inches (45cm) above the canopy at this stage. I will lower it later, thank you!

@greenhousegrowgirl, Hi, i mean that you can put down your lamp, if possible. Because the plant than becomes more energy. I mean 30 cm is full ok on an LED light.

No probs with the brown leaves. This should be old leaves. Let them on until the plant soaked them complete brown. Ahh and more water. You cant get root putrifaction in this air pot. Give em till they drain. Use plastik bags for saucer. They drink more than you thought. Overall good work.

@greenhousegrowgirl, Hi, your Ophelia is good to go for another two weeks. She has to turn the trichomes looking down also to be milky. Btw. First glasy than milky than bigger milky, golden, amber. You use great BioBizz products. Chill you don't need to flush. Bio means that the plant can only can use what the soil gives her. Just give her water. And the upper buds will first ripe, than it will go down. You have the time.... ๐Ÿ˜› WONDERFULL PLANTS

@KingSalomonsWeed, ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ lucky you! I have run out and won't have any until these babies are ready! Please can you take a look at my 'Ophelia' diary and let me know what you think of my new trichome photos? Do you think I am flushing at the right time with a view to harvest this weekend? The trichomes look part clear, part cloudy to me ๐Ÿ˜
