Day 94 - Flower seems to be beginning. No upward growth for this girl ,this week, but she has quite a few potential bud sites so hopefully she will have some decent buds in the end. Just RO water to drink this week. The leaves are so dark on all of my plants; same as my last grow. Not sure if it's the added nutrients or my soil mix. 😟
Day 97- The growing medium was registering at 7.0 so I lowered the pH of the RO water a bit in hopes it would improve things. She was a little dry so she got 8 cups of water this time.
@TrueNorth, I think I'll certainly give that a try. I was also wondering if my soil mix might be part of the problem too, since the leaves have been dark since very early on in the grow. She seems to be growing okay anyway.
@TrueNorth, Thank you! I think the nutrients are working well, especially since I'm a newbie and don't know what I'm doing. They're easy to use and so far I don't see any deficiencies. My plants are always a little darker than other people's though. Hopefully not excess nitrogen.
Looking nice 👍 are you going to do a staggered harvest and take the tops off then let the bottom thicken up or chop the lot at same time? I chopped the log on my first harvest but I'm going to stagger the next one.. Verry nice structured plant
@THCandME,pretty much all you do is cut off your crownies (main colas) and let the rest of the plant mature I like to take all the main heads and spread the lower limbs apart asuch as they can handle and after a week all the fluff turns into rocks 👍👌😉
@Coconuts, I didn't know that you could stagger the harvest! It sure would help get some light down to the lower buds. Unfortunately my tent is very full and it's hard to get good light penetration. I'm going to do some research and possibly try to stagger the harvest. Thanks for the suggestion!
