I harvested early (maybe 2 or 3 weeks early!) because I ran out and I'll start soon a new growth with 1 Royal Queen, 1 Royal Kush and 1 White Widow (photosynthesis strain). I learnt a lot and the next time I'll use 11.8L pots and if I can afford a better LED light (300w or 600w). Because mostly of my buds were fluffy, the drying process lasted ~55h (~21ยฐC / 35-40% rH) and now I have started curing. Such a low quantity ~17g will not last me even 10 days, but the stuff is good, the taste and the smell are like sh*t but does the job. ๐Ÿ˜‚

What's happening with the leaves? ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ The bottom leaves are drying out and dying, but the bud's leaves are slowly turning yellow. Is this a sign that I'm close to harvest or something bad? Thank you all ๐Ÿ˜

Looks like pretty bad nutrient burn to me. You don't have any nutrients listed so it's hard to say without knowing what they are getting. I would give them just straight water for at least a week, maybe 2 and see if that helps out. You'll want to flush about 2 weeks before you harvest which I would estimate is a good month away.

@Master_weeda Thanks for the tips. I've already done a lot of research but I don't think that these bugs are fungus gnat. I'll try also with Diatomaceous Earth. Below you can see a pic (done by me) of the flying bug (looks like fungus gnat): https://forum.grasscity.com/attachments/20191022_185253-jpg.2697288/

@xs8,I have no idea about the type of insects involved but you should spray your plants with a teaspoon of soft black soap diluted in a liter of warm water with a drop of neem oil c the best insecticide natural๐Ÿ‘ Once a week until flowering๐ŸŒฑ I invite you to learn about Google while waiting for the force to be with you๐Ÿ’ช

Do you have the lights on for 20 hours at a time? Or is that info above not accurate?
Dubb79
Dubb79
@xs8, I would think so. You should harvest based on the color of the trichomes. You'll want to cut them down when the trichromes are at least 80% cloudy. Right now they are clear, but they will turn cloudy, then amber colored. Cutting at mostly cloudy ensures you get the highest THC content that you can. Better to harvest 2 weeks late rather than 1 week early. ๐Ÿ‘ฝ

@Dubb79, Do you still think that my plants are 1 month far from harvest?

@xs8, I didn't realize that you were growing an auto-flowering strain, so I guess 20 on / 4 off is ok. ๐Ÿ˜Š

@Whitoutduty, Ahah, I searched a lot on Google to see how a FIMmed plant looks after fully recover, but I didn't find anything. Do you have any photo where I can see how a successful FIM should look like? ๐Ÿ˜‚

Looking back at your previous weeks, it it seems that you may have been giving them too much nutrients. The plants may not have been taking them all up at that point, but now that they are into the flowering stretch they are likely soaking up the unused nutrients in the soil; leading to the burn.

xs8
@Dubb79, I think you were right, I flushed yesterday and until now no more yellow leaves :D
xs8
xs8
@Dubb79, I gived more nutrients because the NPK ratio was too small, but maybe you are right about the unused nutrients, I'll try with a flush, thanks! ๐Ÿ˜

Looking good!! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ I noticed most of your leaves have 5 fingers. Do you have any 7 or 9 fingered leaves?
Dubb79

@xs8, Oh, just curious about the number of fingers. Just another oddity about cannabis genetics I find interesting. ๐Ÿ˜

@Dubb79, I had a few 7 fingered leaves but removed during trimming, why? =)

You could also clip another bud or two, let them air dry (no oven), and test smoke again. If the taste and buzz are satisfactory for you, then hey, that's all that matters isn't it. ๐Ÿ‘ฝ

xs8
@Dubb79, I couldn't resist so I took more small buds and dried in the oven again, but this time got me pretty high... The only problem is that is more like a sativa high and I love the couch knockout effect. I'll wait more in order to let more trichomes to turn amber ๐Ÿ˜

Looking great. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ What is your new method for LST? What was your old method?
xs8
xs8
@Dubb79, Thanks :D Is not really a method, just a better way to tie down them. Now I'm using clothes-pin to fix the garden string (before I was just pushing the string through the soil) so it's more stable and the stem can't anymore unfix the gardening string ๐Ÿ˜‚

My non-expert opinion is that they are not suffering from light burn. In my experience it is nearly impossible to burn them with a 100W LED. The curling of the leaves is likely from over-watering. Browning of perlite can also be a sign of too much water. Don't give up! They look fine and will take off soon!! ๐Ÿ‘ฝ

xs8
@Dubb79, Thank you ๐Ÿ˜ I've started to water them with only ~0.35L water per pot instead of 1L and now the soil is drying much quicker and they look more healthy ๐Ÿ˜

Patience. You must be very patient at this point. Clipping a bud or two to test was not a bad idea just to test it out. But they are not ready yet. You will be able to tell when the trichomes turn amber by comparing them to the pics you posted this week. This is the point in the grow where most growers (especially newer growers) make the mistake of cutting too early. If you want your efforts to pay off, trust me, wait longer. It will be worth it. ๐Ÿ‘ฝ

@Xs8 Dude stop too feeding you're plants and saturating the top few inches of soil, it's over watering for one specially if youre getting gnats and the best way yoo water is bottom feed. they take what they want as they want, dont let plants sit in water for more than 12 hours , thiers a real possibility of rotting roots this way, Lots of perlite like you have is great but you just need too hold back on the water! Do you plan on putting them in a bigger pot? Mine are in 14L

@Bashgrowsitall1989 I'll try bottom feeding with just one of my plants in order to see the differences. Thanks mate! ๐Ÿ˜
Bashgrowsitall1989
Bashgrowsitall1989
@xs8, Yes, the soil will work like a wick and will soak the water up, u also want those roots too be searching as far down as they can for Easter as this will make you're plant super strong!
xs8
xs8
@Bashgrowsitall1989 Alright, I understand, but leaving the water into the bottom tray isn't dangerous? Now the seedlings are little, so are the root, how can the root get access to the bottom water?
