Approaching end-of-week.
She is growing well and handled LST like a champ.
I'm still struggling to lower the PH but I feel confident that after a couple more watering, she'll be ok.

She is flowering!!!
So happy to have reached flowering. Plant is looking good I think. Probably there is some nute burn that I caused along veg due to PH issues, humidity etc etc. Nevertheless leanrt a lot and Im trying to apply all of those lessons to the Gorilla Glue (which seems to be growing faster and stronger already).
This Tangie is now flowering and I've switched nutes to Bud Candy, and Plagron Bloom. I've also added Enzymes.
I've also upgraded my inline fan to an AC Infinity Unit. Humidity was all over the place and it was very difficult for me to keep it stabilized. I got an AC infinity fan along with a Controller 69 PRO that keeps the humidity at 54%.
Day 40: well, learnt a bit about VPD, and with the help of the new controller and the probes I adjusted humidity and temperatura accordingly. Plant seems healthier now. Im also watering more often since she is transpirating quite heavily and the pot feels lighter now every 48hs
Ive also released some LST ties and Im letting her grow normally. I dont think she'll benefit anymore of LSTing.
Day 42: She is really bushy. She is reaching this phase with quite a lot of burnt tips. There are no yellow leaves nor great overall damage. I'd say it is a positive balance. Buds are growing but I dont have a reference point so its hard to say if their development is ok.
Day 43: Added Watered with water, CalMag Pro, Bud Candy and Enzymes. Discovered that my Plagron CalMag includes Nitrogen. that definitely doesnt help with burnt tips. For the next growth i'll try to get my hands on some Epsom Salts and Egg shells

Should I be worried about this spot? It is just one leaf, appeared today, and i've noticed some tips got white/yellow. The latter appeared before any feeding was done. I've only watered with tap water and Power Roots. Nothing else was added until today. Plant looks great otherwis

one lone spot on a lower leaf - one of the first sets. So, i'd just wait and see as that could be nothing. the plant looks healthy to me.

Some yellowing appeared on the leaves this last day. Temps and humidity are controlled and ok. I haven't been feeding her, she has been growing on light mix for the past 25 days. Im thinking its time to start applying some nutes. Or could be something else? Thanks!

Well after many attempts at fixing the issue Ive finally nailed the issue. It was nute burn mixed with PH issues which made everything more confusing. Lowered the PH from 7.4 to 6.2 by watering watering with plain tap water. I used a light mix to grow her and I now Ive learnt, that light mixes cover 4 weeks of development and it is better to be safe than sorry and not avoid adding nutes until week 5.
Actually vegging nutes are not needed at all when growing Autos in Light Mix. Maybe just a 1/4 of the recommended dosis in 5th week mixed with some Flowring nutes if she is showing pre-flowers.

Just a check. Can someone with more experience have a look at day 42 and this week's diary and give me an overall evaluation? I think she is doing ok but Id like a reconfirmation :)

Hey.
Bit hard to give my opinion with those pics buddy. The issues can be hard to notice early in my own grows.
But, what I can see. The edges, (they're light green as where the tips at some point??) If so, with what I can see you can confirm it urself. Those signs usually are attributed to your roots finding it hard to breath. Let you soil dry in more and as it does air is drawn into your sub allowing your roots to breath.
So, you're using soil right. So just 1x strong npk feed a week. And then just low EC (either calmag r enzymes as follow up feeds to come behind your NPK bloom nute feeds)
Also, tilling the top will help your top soil dry in more quickly and will increase o2/co2 to your root zone. That's the only thing I cm barely see.
Idk how much you know about growing. But, don't do any defoliations until you're a few days out of pre flower (upwards growth)

Hey guys, quick health check please. I'm not sure whether I should start flushing or wait a bit longer. Also, she looks healthy to me, but I need a bit of reassurance; I've never reached this stage so I'm a bit lost. Photos in the last week of the diary :)

Looking good. Great photos as well.
With regards to flushing, you have a bit more to wait. How to know when your plants are ready:
1. Pistils: Your pistils are all white when should turn orange and start curling in. Pistils can be a bit misleading so not the best method
2. Trichomes: Get yourself a Jeweller's Loupe (at least x30 magnification) and check the trichomes on your buds. The trichomes on your leaves are decent but not as great of an indicator. The trichomes should have turned milky white. Now it depends on your preference, most people wait until 20% of the trichomes have turned amber, this is a good middle ground. If you want your effect to be more leaning to the light headed sativa effect, harvest before this point. If you prefer a more couch lock, indica effect, go for a bit more. I wouldn't go for much more amber trichomes because those THC trichomes would have degraded and turned into CBN (which is why you have a more couch lock effect).
With regards to the actual flush, I have always flushed 10 to 14 days ahead of planned harvest date but many opt out of it and say it's a myth. My flush is usually the same amount of water I was given her during the last days but without any nutrients.
Good Luck with the rest of your grow and enjoy the yield.

@McDavis, whats up man?
Hard to say, its been just 2 waterings since i detected this issue. Damaged leaves haven't improved, but I believe they are not getting worse. And new leaves doesn't seem to be developing that white/yellow tip (for me, new leaves were developing that yellowing at the very beginning).
But I believe the yellowing, if it does progress, it does so very slowly. So it is hard for me to tell if it really improved.
Anyway, watering with corrected PH water causes no harm and it is just what i've should been done from the beginning. If that doesn't work, at least I removed one very important variable from the equation. I'd do the same if I were you.
Having said that, remember that another common cause for those burnt tips is overfeeding. So, if you can measure your PH and rule that out, then it is probably a nutrients issue.
Your plants are looking amazing 💪
