She has been popping this week! Her pistils started coming in hot. She started showing around Nov 8th, and by the 13th she was full in bloom. She has spread out reasonably well, but I will have to take another stab at defoliation before the buds fully fill in. I trimmed a few of the bud sites off from the bottom since they were never going to have a chance in hopes this would divert some attention to the upper buds. November 17th will mark her 42nd day, so we are officially into week 7! She has gotten extremely thirsty, we went from around 100 ounces a week to about 250. I am giving her Nutes on Monday and Friday with basic water on Wednesday and a splash Sunday morning if she looks like she really needs a boost. I dialed back the humidity to 45% over the last 14 days, and we are holding steady at 74 degrees Fahrenheit, 45% RH, and about 1.5 VPD. I would like to get the VPD down to 1.2-3 if possible, but it's been tough. I am happy just sticking within temp/RH and a ballpark for VPD. Her smell ramped up quite a bit this week. The carbon filter is struggling a whee bit. If this keeps up I may need to deploy a stronger solution to reduce the smell. I don't have to be stealthy, but I don't always prefer a dank smell overwhelming the house!

Shishiostarted grow question 5 months ago
I posted three photos in Week 9 of my diary showing a drastic progression of some ailment. The issue has accelerated and I fear it will kill the plant before harvest. PH 6.4 watering about 64 oz every 4 days RH 39, Temp 67-73 Night/Day. around 35-45 DLI at 18H. What should I do?

Leaves. Color - Yellow

Looks like your medium is locking out things from not enough runoff and to much salts, Foxfarms also advises you to feed at a concentrations that will 100% cause issues down the road, They do this because they want you to buy more of their product. Best if you invest into the EC pen and dilute your solutions EC down to the desired amount to prevent this. Run off is key in preventing buildup. Everything else looks on point, RH, Temps, Light schedule and DLI. Good Luck!

Great lookin' plant there. Question: how's the lighting going? I have the same setup, and starting my 2nd grow (first one was meh). I noticed around week 3 veg you turned it up. What %? And what were your adjustments to your lighting now that you're in Flower?

@Sejanus21, I wish you good fortune and a bountiful harvest! I just finished the last of the Widow I had from that harvest and I am already itching to grow her again. Absolutely love the high she hits you with.

@Lemonhazelover, Appreciate it! It's all her. She has been a dream first plant. Has demanded very little and let me really dig in and just make mistakes to hopefully learn from! (And still seems to be doing well despite it all!)

And your using fox farm there feeding charts off and with auto whatever they say to give give them like a half and with autos bc that feeding charts is for general use not cannabis went threw it myself that was the first thing I grabbed a couple years ago when I started good luck

@NewLevelHydroponic, Sounds like the consensus has been a bit too heavy on the nutrients, VPD was a bit too high, and the plant is reaching its natural end as it is. I will switch to simply giving her 6.5 PH water and let her flush and finish. To answer your previous question. The issue is mainly happening on the upper most leaves, but it seems to be hitting the whole plant. (Lower and inner leaves show much less mottling, yellowing, and curling if any) Thanks for taking the time to reply!

@RallosZek, I have been playing around with my lighting this last week now that she is really flowering. At first I raised the lights about 30 inches above the plant for vegand ran them at max, but I was having some heat and VPD issues as she entered flower so I dropped the lights down to about 22 inches above the plant and lowered the intensity to 80%. (Getting around 40-60 DLI between the main cola and the rest.) I am also running a 19/5 cycle since that has helped keep the environment stable.) I am going to re-assess the lights after Thanksgiving to see if I can find the sweet spot for her final weeks of flowering.

@James, Thank you so much! It's been a blast so far! Big fan of your White Widow genetics, they are extremely hardy. I have done everything I can to kill her and she just keeps coming back stronger. (Not on purpose of course!)

A great result for a maiden grow Bro. Nice work. just a thought , but that is a lot of products to use and autos are very happy with lesser feeds in my exp ideally the less is better than a huge combo of broken down elements. there are some very good nutes that contain everything needed in a couple of bottles/powders. The "industry " side of our hobby is a greedy market with so many breaking down complete feeds into smaller elements then add water to create a bottled "supplement" when in reality they just added water to the separated elements and sold them separately. I.e They buy a complete product , break it down into elements, add water, fancy bottle, great ad campaign and release it as an additional product to a range. We end up buying 5 or 6 products that would have been contained in 1 complete powdered product. I.e Megacrop, which has everything needed for the entire grow and is increased/decreased in strength to meet the plants stage of growth. Autos are great for ease and simplicity but the control and choices we get from natural ,feminised growing will be the a great one to try to. Using simple training and methods is great fun to see what these amazing plants can handle and produce too. All in all a great 1st grow amd don't be too gutted at the drop in end bud weight , a couple of oz per plant is a decent return on auto's. I love a good mess about with training , feeds and even creating my own hybrid strains has been fun. pop over to my diaries anytime and have a look around , I love lst,hst,training ect.. and have a decent mix of strains , techniques, mistakes that may help answer any curiosity about trying something different as you gain experience. The diaries here have been a great inspiration for me to try all sorts with more confidence. Good luck on the finished results.

And it's a 12 weeks from seed to harvest the yellowing leaves could just your at the end of the flowering stage they do that alot especially with auto the leaves turn yellow curl even sometimes fall off because you at the end of the flowering stage and it's using it last of everything to fatten up them bud but that pic was at 10 weeks don't give it anymore nutrients your buds gonna taste real harsh
