Careful on the nitrogen, dark leaves and discolouring tips points to a toxicity. Nonetheless, what and amazing looking plant for a first grow. I'll be trying a Trainwreck next summer, good luck!

Day 40 of 12/12. Tent smells strongly still. Used straight pH 6.4 dechlorinated tap water all week last week with no nutes. Did a 7 day flush. Started adding low dose nutes back to the plants this week. Bought the foxfarm dirty dozen and started feeding the “soil” feeding schedule. My plants are in happy frog mixed with perlite but they have been in the same container without any top dress for over 6 weeks.
Purple trainwreck smells a bit spicy but very sweet. Berry or grape-like would be the best way to describe the smell. Slight skunky scent to it as well. Buds getting bigger this week and lots of trichomes.
Made some cannabutter out of larger leaves, underdeveloped buds I had removed and stems from throughout this grow. Worked very well. Checked the dried trim I had under a loupe and it had some trichs so I figured it wouldn’t hurt to try. I didn’t expect it to work really and used 4.15 ounces of trim in 1/2lb of butter. Ended up making peanut butter cookies with it.
The cookies felt great and lasted approximately 4 hours. Was relaxing but not unfocused or like I couldn’t move. Started with a body buzz with a slight head effect... then slowly creeped up to a strong cerebral high. Another person said it felt as if their movements were in slow motion.
Widow X smells more sour with a slight sweet undertone as well. No spicy scent to it, mostly just sour and earthy smelling. Buds finally started to get bigger. This plant didn’t show pistils until 1.5 weeks after the PT plants, it was also slightly younger. I suspect I will harvest the PT sooner than the widow plant, the widow plant just isn’t maturing like the PT plants are.
Update: noticed some improvement on buds within 24 hours of foliar application of flowers kiss.

Grow Questions
Greenbean15started grow question 4 years ago
This is my first grow, I am on day 27 of flower and don’t want to over-defoliate. Do I continue to remove larger leaves as they come through the net or stop removing foliage entirely? PT is short, and wide should I remove lower bud sites? Used some lowers as clones but lots left.

Hi Buddy great looking plants.
I have little experience.
But as far as I know if your plants have responded great to Defoliation during the whole grow there should not be a problem Removing any Un necessary leaves, you need to make sure that your root system is healthy and up taking The necessary nutrition.
To me buddy Defoliation is been always necessary when training a plant they all tend to get bushy after any training methods.
Be slow on Defoliation take your time and remove leaves only covering bud sites and ones that don't get any light you will notice the once not receiving light are dropping when lights on, you don't want to over do to stun her right now in flower because off to little leaves and making her work to hard 😓.
Good luck and help this helps.

When should I start each flush?
Day 52 of 12/12.
The mother PT has trichomes that are about 20% cloudy and 80% clear
The Clone PT is about 40% cloudy and 60% clear
The widow X isn’t ready and is clear

Hello my friend
THE BEST TIME TO RINSE YOUR CANNABIS
Rinsing usually begins two weeks before harvest. If the plant has an eight-week flowering period, rinsing should begin six weeks after the start of the flowering period. It is best to look closely at the trichomes on the plant to determine when your cannabis is ready to be harvested. If small trichomes are just starting to move from a transparent to a milky, white hue, this is a good indication that the plants may begin to be rinsed. It is necessary to arrange that the majority of trichomes have changed to the desired color for the harvest after two weeks
Rinsing can also be a good way to reset the soil when a plant is still in the vegetative growth phase. Sometimes a grower accidentally over-feeds his cannabis, causing a change in color and wilting of the leaves. This is called a "nutrient burn." Rinsing the soil can eliminate excess nutrients, which helps solve the problem. However, this is a drastic measure at this stage of cultivation, so make sure the problem is a nutrient burn and not something else.
Good luck for your grow 🤞🌱
May the force be with you 💪

@Greenbean15, props for growing a non-auto on your first attempt. Autos are a lot easier to manage since they have shorter lives, makes soil problems a lot less impactful

@Alpaca, oh definitely not too hard on myself. It’s a first grow, this is all learning experience and no matter what I’m happy with what I’ve gotten out of this grow. I’m just taking it all in stride! I have taken multiple clones off these plants so I have numerous retries. I love constructive criticism. If everyone always kept their mouths closed no one would learn to do better. So thank you!
I had been cutting back on nutes for a few weeks now ever since I defoliated but the leaves started dying more than natural senescence would’ve caused so I flushed them part of week 14 and the beginning of week 15 for a total of seven days so hopefully that corrected the problem. So far it’s helped, the buds are filling in more quickly now.
It doesn’t appear as though I’ve given them a break in the journal because I started it midweek. They just started getting nutes again in the middle of week 15. The buds started gaining again after doing the flush so hopefully I can keep these plants going until they’re where I want them to be.
So far no hermies or males, so I’m happy 😁
Good luck on growing trainwreck during the summer! I’ve loved growing this strain, it has taken a beating and just keep chugging along.

@Greenbean15, don't be too hard on yourself. She's only slightly overfed, not even worth a flush or anything. It's pretty easy to get nutrient imbalances when you use a lot of bottled stuff. If you cut back for a while and try not to feed her grow nutes you'll be just fine

@Med_in_Tropic, thanks so much! We’ve taken a handful of clones throughout the grow. We’re definitely trying to preserve this one’s genetics.
