Day 43 - She's showing signs of deficiencies in calcium, magnesium, or both. Doing a foliar spray of Cal/Mag to see if it helps. She'll get a full dose with her next watering but it's too soon at this point. Wish me luck! Day 44 - Decided to flush her early. She was still a bit damp but not soaking, but I was worried about her situation. Ran eight gallons of 6.15ph through her followed by a final gallon with some cal/mag, which I was worried about but may in fact be incorrect about. One good does of cal/mag won't hurt her, though, so either way, no harm. It's hard to see but she's perked up a bit and some of the yellow that was invading her top leaves has gone a little more green. We'll keep an eye on her, of course. She' on day 44 of a 55-60 day life so I'm hesitant to go back to feeding her unless something weird happens. Day 45 - The flush is working! She's thicker at the base of her but sites and seems to be generally perkier. Day 48 - Her flowers are starting to look like one giant wad of bud, rather than a bunch of distinct spots. Seven days until commercial cut age according to Mephisto. I'm gonna go a couple days more, of course. The yellowed leaves on top only go down half an inch or so, and the bottoms of the yellowed leaves still look normal, so I don't think she was horribly damaged by her incident, and her mass keeps packing on, so I expect to get more than the minimum of one ounce listed on the Meph official description. *Shaking First Grow Knows Nothing Magic 8 Ball* "I Declare as Someone Who is on their First Grow that this plant shall yield ONE POINT FIVE OUNCES." - Watch me be wrong!

Why you give the pk 13/14 now ?

@@Kinimod, Word. Sour Crack is usually done in 8 weeks so maybe that's why I got that advice.

@Hexus, I use the pk during week 6 for plants of 9-10 weekend, I had never heard of this technique, I hope it will give you a good result 🤞

@@@Kinimod, I was told to use p/k during. The first week of flower. Bad idea? It's the only nutrient I'll be using during the grow apart from Bio Root.

Great job, looking forward to your smoke report. You should grow it again in the future.

@Budcoin, I was super close to scheduling her chop for tomorrow. Going to give her until Sunday, which will be day 55 exactly. Her leaves are fading and her trichomes are maybe a third amber. Thinking I'm going to remove fan leaves and chop her as one piece. Just hang the whole kit and kaboodle up. Our RH in the house is 20-25% in the winter and I want to slow her dry as much as I can. Pics will of course be incoming. :-D Will take pics, prune all of her fans, take more pics, chop her, hang her, take more pics. :-D Won't be able to get a wet weight with a whole plant hang but I'll weigh her anyway. By the way yours looks super frosty! Sorry for the mishap. Mine had one, too, last week. Dunno what caused her to go all yellow, but I have suspicions*. A flush fixed her though and her discolored leaves didn't die or shrivel so *Shrug*. *Her first two doses of P/K were me listening to the dude at the grow shop and not reading the bottle. Gave her 15ml of P/K per gallon for three feedings. She didn't get what you would call a regular nutrient burn, so the symptoms were confusing. Someone else said PH lockout, which it certainly looked like, but I had been measuring PH both in and out of the plant. But hey, as I said, flush fixed her so here we are. I think I'm gonna be hitting the higher end of the yield size for her strain. At least I'm hoping so. If I manage 1.5oz I'll feel like I have hero level first grow and retire forever... Or not. :-D Happy Growing!

Hey there Hexus, have you tested her runoff? Ph could be too low, if youre using good soil calcium or magnesium or any other secondary nutrient deficiency doesnt happen too often. I usually flush if i have any issues unless im sure my soil ph is correct. I suggest to check your soil on time before its too late :) If indeed your ph is off balance flush with twice the amount of your potsize. Let the soil dry thoroughly and follow with a friendly dose of nutrients. Lets hope this isnt necessary. Looking great for a first grow

@ArucambaAutoflowers297, I really appreciate the help! PH is 6.15 going in, and 6.8 coming back out. Been pretty obsessive on PH. The next time she's dry she's getting a flush either way, and then a 1 tsp/gallon dose of cal mag, which should fix her if that is the problem, and won't hurt her if it isn't. I kind of have it down to one of two (Four) problems at this point, all of which will be solved by the flush, but it'd be good to know the actual cause. 1. I listened to the dude at the grow store who told me to hit the plant with Canna P/K 13/14 at 12-15ml/Gallon for the first week of flower. I did three waterings this way and stopped after five days. So there may be an overdose of P/K. But it's been a really slow, creeping up symptom so I wasn't as sure about it. 2. It *looks* like symptoms of Cal/Mag. Older leaves are getting paler with brown spots, new growth is fairly pale, and slow. 3. She's right in the middle of her last two/three weeks as well, which might be a contributing factor. 4. I actually am just guessing and making a fool on myself, and have no idea. Here's a pic in natural light in case it can help. https://i.imgur.com/n5OMp5d.jpg Again, really appreciate the feedback! EDIT - RE: Natural light pic - I do not spray my leaves with water. This is the first time ever, with the folair cal/mag, and it's not in direct light. Just making that clear.
