Plant heights range from 12 to 21 inches. Buds are getting fat and frosted. Thinned some leaves out to get more light to the lower parts of the buds. Smell is average with a slightly sweet floral/ripe fruit/spice scent which draws you in for more. Started week with a light 1/2 gallon flush ph correct water followed by nutrient feeding to the point of runoff. Runoff ph is ranging from 5.9 to 6.1. I'm not going to obsess with the ph any more. 795 ppm nutrient feeding every other day. Using ph correct water with 1/4 tsp Epsom salt per gallon between each feeding only enough to maintain even moisture through out pot. Upper leaves showing some nutrient deficiency (I believe this is normal at this point) and possibly a bit of light burn so I backed off on the lights on day 56 keeping them between 18 to 20 inches above the plants. I have been keeping the main colas off to the sides to try to keep them from getting to much light. Pistils are starting to brown at the tips. Trichromes are starting to get cloudy but still many are clear with well defined heads. I'm estimating a harvest around day 70-75 . This is the last week I will feed before flush.

Depends on what the trichomes look like. If there's a nice mix. I'm going for 95% cloudy/ milky /5% turning amber. Even after harvest they will still ripen a few more days. I'm sure some will still be half cloudy also. I'll look specifically at both the older trichomes deep inside the buds and the older bud growth. Some of the newer bud growth near the end can fake you out a bit. I'm using a lighted 40x jewelers loupe from amazon it work perfect.

@Philindicus, Thai police is prosecuting weed with a vengeance. So I am learning these techniques. For example, we canโ€™t host sow weed directly in the ground and hang them up in the shed after all is done. I think the most difficult of us is the techniques on caring for seedlings and vegging. Most people here never pay attention to grow light and light hours. We are used to having sun and rain. I am still on my first grow and I look for setup details that I can learn from.

@Med_in_Tropic, Your welcome. Interesting, doesn't weed grow wild in Thailand. I believe a lot of people use the leaves in soups and stuff.
