So after a week long flush the bigger fan leaves are yellowing up real quick, they had already started to change color but this has really sped things up! I'm hoping i didn't flush too soon, the trichomes are definitely milky but I can't see any amber... having said this my magnifying glass isn't the greatest and all other signs are pointing to her nearly being ready for the chop. Reckon this is the final week π¬
28/03
Not a whole lot more to add, pistils are steadily turning darker and the fan leaves are continuing to die. At the moment I'm expecting to chop her on Thursday! Can't wait!!

Grow Questions

Do some genetics stretch more than others as seedlings or is it always a case of not enough light? Pictures are 20 hours apart

It can surely be genetic but Iβd consider your lighting as well.
This is kinda normal in my experience, to shoot up
Quick like that in a short period, however - if it continues over the next day or two.. thatβs an issue.
My guess is it wonβt stretch more like that.. but start seeing growth in the leaves.
As long as it can support itself I donβt worry too much about that stretching in the beginning.

So I've been using only RO water since she sprouted, have I effectively washed away all the nutrients in the soil? Should I start feeding her just a little bit of nutes to compensate?

Yes it will, But the amount will be so minor it would not make a difference. You are in soil so you don't want to have much runoff anyways. Your depending on the microbe life inside the soil to break it down into nutrients for your plant. So if you water with a lot of runoff you can wash away this life and cause issues.
As for feeding it would depend on how rich your soil is. Are you organic and by feeding your top dressing organic compounds. Or are you going to start using salt based nutrients?
clueless_smokerstarted grow question 3 years ago
Can changing light source cause stress to your plant? Yesterday I changed from a CFL to a 150w Mars Hydro LED and this morning she looked a bit "sad". I took the photo straight after watering hence the damp soil.

Yeah that could be the case.. maybe dim it at 50% and raise that setting a bit every day.
Itβll adjust quickly tho no worries

Loads of contradictory stuff out there about pistils turning dark during flowering. Some say it's normal early on because you get multiple rounds of growth others say it can mean it's been pollinated. Do mine look ok?

Checked few diaries myself. Just looks like the way she grows and maybe it's just starting a lil earlier. Autos have a mind of their own you'll never get the same strain to grow more or less the same with autos 90% of the time. She looks healthy and happy bro.

Been flushing for the past week, the larger fan leaves are starting too turn yellow faster than I had anticipated but trich's haven't started turning amber yet. All the other sign's point towards her being about a week away from the chop but I'm a bit worried that I flushed early

Organomananswered grow question 3 years ago
Any time from now to a week will be plenty for this plant.
Not all plants get amber trichomes by the way, therefore basing your harvest based entirely/exclusively according to trichome colour has some problems associated with it.
Once your plants have 98-99% brown pistils, it means her life is almost over, therefore harvesting just before she goes into decline, will give you buds with peak cannabinoid levels. Once she is past this point, as indicated by 100% brown pistils, THC breaks down quite rapidly into CBD and CBN, which are 2 non-psychoactive cannabinoids that produce a sleepy effect, but don't actually get you high.
Anyway, you are right on track to harvest as planned.
Hope this helps, Organoman.

Hey growmie π
I just read through you diary and wanted to leave a few useful tips.
First off you had troubles with figuring out if your light intensity was high enough. Thereβs an easy way to check for yourself and see exactly how much light your plant gets. There are apps like Photone (iOS & android) that give you pretty accurate results in real world measurements like ΞΌmol/m2 (micro mole per square meter). With that you can dial in the light perfectly to what your plant needs.
The second tip is in regards to your concern about chlorine in your tap water. If you fill water in some container and leave it standing for 24 hours (48 hours if you have the patience) the chlorine will gas off and you can use that water without worrying.
Looking very good so far, healthy you plants you got there!
I hope you found this to be helpful, let me know if you have any questions.
Best of luck with your grow!

@Elodin, thanks so much for the advice buddy π can't tell you how much I enjoyed reading it! Really proud of my first grow so it's great getting some feedback.
Just downloaded photone and it seems to have some really cool features, would like to calibrate it though.
For the water, I started giving tap water to my Basil (that poor plant has had Soo many things tested on it π€£) and once it didn't die I started mixing it with my Ro water bit by bit for the girls.

@Psilocubensis, I tend to take the pictures right after watering so think that's probably why. Really not giving them that much water and I always check to see if the soil has dried out an inch down first

She looked great mate. And love the info and the laid back approach. I'm growing the same strain with the same light and it's my first grow too lol. Mine was slow to grow at first and she was short and so I didn't even train her like the others. But then she just shot out wider and bushy now.
