Hey man.
So tbh with you. This 1 has me stumped. I don't think it's mag though.
In week 11 I can see your plant is clawing like mad. And I see you are using 1 core nutrient.
If I had to give an answer I'd say you are experiencing a multi def thing going on there all stemming from nutrient lock. As that nutrient is locked out and it's only 1 core nutrient you plant is finding it hard to take up stuff and yeah it's just in limbo.
Tbh with you. I've never seen growth go from the way it was week 11 to that. Which by looking is a few weeks apart from the healthy (but clawing) looking plant. You can see it clawing and if you didn't fix the problem from there your plant was throw into nute lock and without seeing past pics and how she came about like that.
All I can say is if you have an all in 1 nutrient and it's not working but does for others you are in nutrient lock. I'm sorry there's not much more to it. But I would consider restarting her diet and add some a calmag after you cut your feed for a few days and give water. And restart on half of what you are giving her now. And I'd cut the silica now it's done its job. Let your plant focus on the kick start.
I don't think she's near her end of life to look like that. But yeah. Leave her for a few days on what you have given and half it on the restart.
Good luck.
hello everybody, someone already knows my problem, someone no. I have to harvest with very high temperature, and i have another idea: if i cut my plants wet? normally i stop give water 1/2 days before harvest, what if i do it wet?should they dry slower? or i only risk mold?
When you last water your plants does do a LITTLE bit to speed/slow up the drying but truly not much... that being said, if you have more water IN your plant when you chop her, it WILL take longer to dry - but not by much. The only risk for mold is going to come from the conditions you're drying in. What you're trying to achieve - in other words, the PERFECT drying conditions are a temp of 60-degrees and a humidity of 60%.... since you're dealing with 90-degrees and 55% humidity, here's what I would suggest... trim off all the large fan leaves then chop and hang THE WHOLE PLANT (not individual stems). Make sure individual buds are not touching each other and also make sure you've got a fan moving air AROUND the plant (not pointed directly at the plant!) and make sure the area it's hanging in is dark... and I think you'll be good.
Good luck!
It splits up your harvest so the trimming wont be so tedious. If you need to use your tent to dry then you could improvise.
Make a cardboard box dryer. https://houseofcannabis.it/en/essiccare-cannabis-con-scatola-di-cartone/
To keep the smell down you create a negative pressure in it by cutting a hole in it, running a vent tube to the intake of your tent.
If you can keep it separate, Then you want to control the humidity keeping it at 60-62. for optimal drying time.
I put the buds in jar with boveda 58% for 15 days, after drying, cause I was away from home. Then I come back and for the past week I have burped jars every day. soft taste, not too tasty. a little disappointed with the effect .. quite bland. Will I have done something wrong that compromised it?

High Abacus,
I always use boveda 62% packs. Then I put my cannabis a little too wet in a vacuüm jar with a oversized boveda 62% pack. I use the large packs 67 grams that is enough for 500 grams weed with 100 grams weed in a jar. The humidity in first day should be around 70% Then the humidity pack can suck up the 8% and makes it 62% Then there is enough moist for at least 2 months slow curing so that all the Chlorophyll breaks down into metabolites, which along with the presence of other sugars already present in the plant tissue are seen as what can give that harsh smoke generally associated with improperly cured cannabis. Curing properly gives aerobic bacteria time to digest the chlorophyll metabolites and other sugars.
The difference in buds taste and smell after quick drying and quick curing or slow drying and slow curing are huge!
But I understand that it is hard to have a jar full with juicy buds and not opening it. But the reward is definitely worth it!
Also put a hygrometer in the jar the first days to make sure that the humidity is right. Otherwise you can always use some fresh citrus peel to raise the humidity a bit.
Happy Smoking! 😋
what's wrong with my "new" weed? yes ok, maybe she is not ready yet, and for this reason it seems to me to light. But since I smoke it,I can't fall asleep like usual.. could it be her fault, or is just that after 10 years I started to study again in the morning and afternoon?
Have to ask if her trichomes, when you harvested her, were at all amber... If you harvest when the trichs are simply milky, you're going to get a cerebral effect without any relaxation so yeah, that would tend to keep you awake! ... 10-20% amber trichs mixed in with those milky ones will give you the cerebral high with good relaxation... and if the trichs have more amber than that, the smoke will start to give you couch lock. So I'm thinking you may have harvested her just a bit too early!
If you don't have one, get a jewelers loupe or a microscope that will allow you to get in really close to the trichs to see how they're doing when you harvest your next grow...
Good luck!
In my very limited experience with 2 weed strains:
Afghan Pearl CBD = Very energetic high, high speed thoughts and makes it hard to get to sleep.
Northern Lights = Bright, refreshing and very functional high that slowly leaves you in a good state for sleep after 3-4 hours.
I need more experimentation, that will be such a hardship! 😇
High Abacus,
When I look at your diarie I see that you harvested the plants really early.
When you want a more numb and stoned effect instead of a high and energetic effect you need to harvest when 50% of the trichomes are amber.
Did you check the trichomes with a x60 pocket microscope? They are really cheap! Like 10 dollars and can help with harvesting at the right time and pests identifications. They are really handy when growing cannabis.
Harvesting this early is more for a daytime weed instead of a fuck I hope that I can reach my bed... whatever I just sleep on the couch kind of weed 😋
In your current grow - you are in this stage, or maybe shade deeper by N toxicity.
Just plain water with 6.3 ph, right amount for all pot to saturate, divide into 3 waves every 10 min, for leaving no dry pockets. Lift pots to know when they are light and water only then. After 3-4 cycles, bring nutes back. Go feed/plain/feed/plain, dont feed everytime and all should be good !
