Strawberry pie

Hey there, Thanks so much for sharing this diary with us :) Hoping that the grow was a nice experience, and you enjoy the harvest Have a good one

Bruh... she's beautiful. Most breeders give an odd number of weeks. I have NEVER had a plant finish when the breeder says.. sometimes 2 weeks.. sometimes 4 weeks. Phenotypes can play a big roll in that too. I grew 2 Runtz from the same breeder that claimed it was a 9 week strain. 2 very different phenotypes. One was finished at week 8 and the other at like week 10 or 11. Both smelled and tasted like traditional Runtz but one was a fast finisher. It's best to go by % of trichomes that have turned amber. I first wait to see that plenty of the pistils have oranged/browned (about 75% or more), then start checking trichomes. The very top of each cola will start to show amber first.. I like to wait till I see the bottom nugs getting a slight bit of amber while still watching the tops, making sure they arent getting too ripe. Just gotta find that "in between" moment of not having too much amber but also having plenty of amber.. at this point, I know that the clear trichomes have matured as much as possible without harvesting too late.. I just like to make sure I see some amber beginning toward the bottom. But each strain AND phenotype of that strain will finish at different times. FastBuds is a great breeder. Those flowering times might only be showing us how long it takes till the earliest harvest possible. Still SOME THC but not as much as their could be. Idk, I really dont get why they even give harvest times.. they should all just say "7 - 12 weeks" 🤣 somewhere in there 🤷

You're doing an incredible job for your first ever grow. They look really good. Great catch on diagnosing your calmag problems. It can also look like PK deficiency among others.

I see you have the light height listed but what % power in weeks 1-3??
