Hi there friend. It is a common misconseption that a fan in the grow room/tent drops the temperature. This in NOT the case. You need a fan for 2 reasons. 1: A fan in the grow room can actually increase the temp. a bit as it dissolves hot air spots made by the lights so you have a more uniformed temperature and the plant is not frying at the top and freezing in the bottom .You have more accurate readings in your thermometer. 2: As previous answers pointed out, wind (but not too much wind) forces the plant to adapt by thickening the stems and that my friend is what you want. Bud weight, resiliance to mold and pests, shorter time between waterings are all things (also) affected just from a small fan. So do yourself a favor and go buy that shit first thing in the morning. Good luck my friend and may you enjoy your grow.

I believe that you do not need to use the grid with auto color

Looks like you have done a great job on it do far. Definitely set up for a good yield. You need some high quality flower boosters to build big dense buds. I use maxibloom for my base nutes in flower and add a little liquid koolbloom and Beastie bloomz to boost the P and K. That combination builds the fat buds every time. Good luck!

I would not remove that many of the leaves at this point. When your plant hits the final stage of ripening it will pull nutrients from those fan leaves in a final push to fatten the buds up. I would pluck a few leaves here and there to give the lower buds better light, but don't go too heavy on them. Looks like you are close to hanging up some nice buds. Congrats on the grow and upcoming harvest!

@jckherer Drop the light hours to 10 sometimes this can trigger a plant to try and finish up quicker

Hi @jckherer The most correct way to know if the plant is ready for harvest is to observe the trichomes with a lupe or a microscope. The right time to harvest is when the trichomes are usually milky in color and one or other trichomes are amber. If you do not have a lupe, the second best way is the color of the pistils, it is necessary to make a general assessment of the plant, the pistils must be 75% orange and 25% white and are ready for harvest. if you go beyond those levels that I told you, the buds gave higher, but they lose their quality in flavor, it's a matter of balance. . good luck mate 🙏💪🍀
