Highlight of the week again goes to the smell and the frosted purpling leaves. The smell is fantastic. The tops are really showing amazing colours now which is quite a sight. The purple sugar leaves covered by crystals is mesmerizing. I find myself staring into the tent with a big smile on my face (being stoned helps!) The top buds are decent, not the biggest I’ve seen but they are showing signs of bulking up which is great. I’ve also noticed that there seems to be a lot of lower bud growth around the height of where she was at the flip, I’m very interested to see how these little nugs turn out at harvest as they could add some unexpected weight to the final count. She is yellowing quite a bit on the lower fans but I’m confident she’s got enough to make it another two weeks before the clippers come out. Will let her go as long as possible without negatively affecting the buds. The second plant is yellowing a lot as a result of low nutrients. Buds are visibly fatter this week so the neglect doesn’t seem to be too detrimental. Lowering the gems in the tent, partly as planned but also due to the smell I’ve had to ramp up the exhaust. Overall another great week of growing. Popped some new seeds and diaries will be up once they are one week old. Cheers!

Seeing the leaf tips clawing a bit. Plant looks healthy, no dark green (too much N). Having full wet / dry cycles. Not adding any nutes so wondering if it’s a sign of a deficiency of some form. Been like this for about a week and no other obvious negative signs. Thanks!

Hey cap, I was scratching my head head too I was like is it overeater ohh though ? No it's not, is it nutes that though? No it's not ... Maybe it is though ? No he's in good shape. You're doing well no nutes no oberwatering that's for sure! What it is though is cold temperatures. No necessarily the environmental temperatures which are on the lower bound of what the plant expects but you're watering solution is real cold for the plant so the roots are getting shocked and think it's colder than it is so they're responding like this . What you want to do is water with water at an optimal 21C and it you'll see the plant recover almost instantly. Hope this helps! 🚀

Need urgent help. I’m a day short of 7 weeks into flower. Fan leaves are turning yellow at a rapid pace and now a dark green black is forming on fan leaves. Do I chop now or just remove affected leaves? Thanks.

Hi @Captain_7! This is a normal thing, this process is called "senescence", basically your plant's cells are getting old and will die as the plant is ending its maturation. This is a sign that your buds are taking nutrients in the leaves and your harvest window is getting close. Congratulations, not all the growers do a good flush and have a nice fade on their plants. To find out about your harvest window, you will need to look at the trichomes with the help of a magnifier/microscope. Clear/Transparent/Skinny trichomes mean it's too soon, Milky/Cloudy/Fat trichomes mean the harvest window is open, Amber trichomes mean the harvest window is ending, and THC is degrading. Based on your latest pictures I think you're very close to the finish line, but only you can tell, by having a daily close up inspection. Hope this will help, good luck with the last days and enjoy your harvest! 👊

Hi, half a gallon should be enough for a 40 cm Plant for 5-7 days. I think you have a big reservoir in your soil now, lift your pot or weigh him. Normally 7 gallons of soil should weigh around 10-11 kilos ( 22 pounds) There you have a number for watering the next time Let your plant dry until you reach 24-25 pounds and then water again.But only half a gallon

@BarrieGrower, in my opinion wateringregime is the trickiest part of indoor growing, and it takes time . and everyone does it its own way. there is no wrong or right, only to keep a dry wet circle, and not doing to much, because its a big invitation to a lot of pests and issues

@Mrs_Larimar, interested watering strategy and good to know. I which is probably like most newbies overwater. What I do is once a week or so, water 1/4 the pot volume and then let dry. Then in between big waterings do the 1/2 gallon. I thought you needed a good water for roots to expand. Good to know, will tty that.

@Captain_7, nice soil composition. I've been wanting to add composted sheep manure to my .mix however was a bit apprehensive. Trying to figure that out. Definently going to try now. Love the fade, Great looking grow!

@Mrs_Larimar, I feel like I should be posting pictures daily because she’s developing so nicely, absolutely mesmorizing. The smell is incredible. I had the tent open and went outside for a minute, Came back in and the whole house was filled with a fruity smell. So awesome.

@Captain_7, yes i'm talking about the clawing tips, you'll see them perk up hopefully 👍 let me know how they react... if it's not that then you got other root problems but i think it's as simple as cold water shocking the roots. stay in touch next update / watering 👊

@CRiSPrGrow, thanks very much for the answer. The drooping was from dry soil because I was a day late on watering. I do agree that the water I’m using is on the cold side. I will warm this up a bit before on my next time around. Any thoughts on the claw tips?

@Captain_7, Your looking at 60-65 days buddy 👍 You've managed to create a monster plant in the vegative stage.

Another successful Dinafem harvest on the grow diary platform and this time with our Purple Afghan Kush or PAK for short 👍 I must say come harvest she really did live upto her name. Those flowers certainly took on a beautiful Purple colour which has carried through to the end product 👌 Nice to see you've filled your jars. Let those flowers cure for a few week and you'll have some super potent, heavy hitting indica flowers to consume 👍 Fine work my friend and a very successful end outcome ✌️ Enjoy that dank and frosty end product mate 👌 Well earned and deserved 👍 All the best Mark..
