Its the end of week 5 and the girls are really sugaring and bulking up. This is my first time growing this strain and the trichomes are really starting to develop. I can even see sugar on the big fan leaves at the top of the canopy. I must be doing something odd when I feed the girls, not just this strain, but also the White Widow strain. I find that the girls always start to show nitrogen deficiency in week 4-6. I know it is normal for some leaves to yellow, but I think there are too many yellowing leaves. I think my problem is either having too small of a container for flowering, hence not having enough stored nitrogen in the soil and plant. Or I must be keeping too much vegetation.
I am going to place them in bigger pots next time.
Updates this week:
So I started to do some limited Defoliation this week. I don't have to do much for this strain because the lower leaves fall off every two days, so I am just taking fan leaves that are blocking lower bud sites only.
Hi Guys,
Please be a little patience because I missed the flowering window so I need to wait two weeks before I start flowering. So this grow will have a long veg time. Looking at lights out mid december so stay tune.
Happy growing

@Zannabis7,
Thanks a lot man. Still trying to master my presentation skills here, hehe... Glad you liked it. Please stay tune for more grows with the BM coming up...
@420_liquidsun,
I have to confess and tell everyone that i made a super newbie mistake. Basically I got a new COBs light and was adding to the grow to test it out. I was lazy and didn't hook up the light to the timer and I forgot to turn off the light after lights out. Roughly about 2 hours... So I hope this is not going to force the ladies to herm.... But I am sure I will loose maybe 20% of bud weight, because my grows usually pack on a lot the last two weeks...
So the moral of the story, be diligent and NEVER procrastinate or be lazy when it comes to setting up timers... :(.....
This is a brilliant diary, well done ๐ plant looks healthy.
I'm doing my 2 in a couple of weeks will be using advanced nutrients and hps.
See if there's much of a difference โ๏ธ๐
๐๐ป๐๐ป๐๐ป Well done Bongman! RQS rocks in my opinion! Congrats on the harvest. If you have the opportunity give a go in recharge since you liked the great white. ๐๐๐ป๐๐ป Cheers, happy growing!
@CANNASIM,
Thanks bro. I've been eyeing the recharge for sometime now. Maybe I will take the plunge on my next auto/super soil grow... will let you know and thanks for pointing that out... Have a great easter weekend...
