March 2nd 2020: Day 43. Week 6 was much better. Got the light at the right level now. Noticed something interesting in that the plant will start to droop a little around 3 days after watering. When I water it it droops hard for a few hours then perks up stronger than ever. Yesterday was first full strength nutes but holding off on the biogrow as the leaves look plenty green. Finally, bumped light to 90w yesterday and it seems to be doing fine so far. Will try push to 100w next week if all well.
Can someone verify my latest 2 photos look like nanners? If so, I’d love some insight on why my plants seem to be so light sensitive. Most growers seem to blast their plants with upwards of 200w with little issue. Mine is sitting at 80w 22inches and it seems to be struggling!
It looks like it might be but it’s difficult to tell. I have had growths like that that weren’t “nanners” that I originally thought were and it turned out to be a bleached sugar leaf in my case.

How is your airflow? If your air isn’t bringing in enough fresh CO2 for the plant to keep up with high powered lighting then the plant will yellow out and bleach.
My next guess would be temperature from the lights causing stress but you appear to have finished grows with this setup before, correct? So perhaps it’s just this strain not liking your lighting.
Dude, this is a beautiful plant - very nicely done. Nope - can't give you a specific ratio unless you labelled each trich. photo by it's position on the plant. That said, I can tell you that you're probably a week to the opening of the harvest window. Most of those trichs. are showing clear or cloudy which means you could chop now but you're gonna get racier effects and it won't be quite as potent if you have some patience and wait a little longer. The benchmark is 20% amber and the rest cloudy but this is only a benchmark and entirely the grower's discretion.
Easy to tell your about a week out from the window too. That potassium issue you mentioned in your weekly comment isn't a deficiency. It's actually the plant entering the "fade". Forgive me, I forget the scientific term for it but your plant has essentially matured and is now consuming it's nutrient stores. If you've got lower temps in your grow space I would imagine they are also assisting with giving your leaves that pretty colouring too. IMO - you're good to start flushing now if you plan on flushing the plant at all. Check those trichs daily from here on out and you should see some amber and further turnover within the next 7 days. Between a week and 10 days I think you'll be taking this girl down. Best of luck with the chop dude - she really looks great👌
