This is week 6,still a veg week because i will treat the plants like they are still vegging,meaning I will not switch the nuts yet.We have a lot of white postils and they also got taller. We will enter the flowering mode next week. Now we continue with the same nutrients and waiting for the stretching to stop.. Day 42...the ladies are performing well. They seem to have recovered from the phosphorus overfert. Pistils are covering the stems slowly but effectively Day 43...we had a cold night and the weather gets bad. Its 9 30 in the morning and the temperature in the tent is 19 C... I hope it will raise, although I feel it will not harm my ladies....at noon I had to lower the lights as the temp were constantly down...Now I got 24 C...have to be cautious as I am playing with the limits.... Day 44...the lights are on three days now as temp outside are getting low and the only way for me to keep an optimal environment is to "play" with the lights distance.The girls are growing, they are well. Today I am not going to water as the soil is still wet. I am thinking about not adding any nutes this time...just to give a slight flush...I don;t have an EC meter which brings me to ignorance when it comes to what is happening in my soil... I only use organic nutes but I think it will be good for them to be flushed... Day 45...the lights are still on without a break and temps during the night in the tent ranged between 18 and 19 C...Today I watered with plain water,no nutrients...The girls are doing great...my only concern is the weather. Day 46...despite the cold the girls are getting taller...I flushed yesterday and next time I water I will add flower nutes...I am thinking about defoliating these girls as the fan leaves shade a lot of space on the lower parts... Finally I defoliated them,I hope I didnt take out too many as it was my first time. I took out huge fan leaves that covered the bottom and some others that I thought were sick.Time will tell Day 47...the temps got higher outside and in the tent everything is back to normal. My girls are doing all right and I am happy... Day 48...Watering day and the nutrients have been switched to flower mode...I used a chemical fertilizer called Gemma,its ratio is 5-10-45 and I added some aminoacids and extra phosphorus...hope I wasnt too large,as we say here in Greece.... See you tommorow with a new week

If you don't want a lot of popcorn nugs at the bottom of the plant I would definitely defoliate it's very beneficial to the plant, It shouldn't cause stress either, just take a few at a time and she'll be fine.

OK, since you are seeing/smelling the difference, maybe it is too gone. My issue came as a case of 100% strength feeding. Did yours come to this state, because you were maybe feeding every watering? I would continue to flush, and maybe extend grow out another week or so, to let the plant use remaining nutes, from its internal structure. At that point it may start to get more CBD, depending on how your trichs are doing now. But it is better than bad tasting stuff. FYI, when you cure - - - > 3-5days to dry, then another days in a jar to cure properly.

For what it is worth, and as a lesson learned, here are things that keep me mostly out of trouble with the daily watering/care. * Use only fabric pots, if not already doing * Only feed after 30 days of growing in your permanent soil - - - > assuming quality soil like Ocean Forrest or Roots Organics * Start out feeding only at a 50% strength, then SLOWLY increment the strengths until you see any wierdness, or like the robustness of your plants * Water/feed using only distilled or purified drinking water * Feed once per 7-10 days * When feeding/watering , use enough water or nutes mix, to force it to drain through the bottom or sides(fabric pot) of the pot. This reduces the chance that nutes, salts, etc., accumulate in the soil. For example, I grow in three gallon pots, and I use one whole gal of water or water/nutes. This causes a little liquid to collect in drip pan. I hope you can use some of this, or you may have a firmer plan for your next grow. Don't be too dissapointed, as errors make a better grower, than one who never had to deal with a lot of issues from the get go. That might make me more ignorant than some of the other growers.😏👌

you know the reason your widows leaves is shining on one is excessive nutrients. ive had this happen a few times.. if i remember right, youre meant to lower the nutrients to quarter doses or just plain water for a few days until the shine dissipates.

@sketchi,yes I will reduce nutrients. I feed them each time I water and I foliar fed them which was bad...Thanx

Gotta love them widows. Her genetics will allow to cope with some cooler temps. But if night temps are unmanageable I'd place a small space heater in there. Looking nice BipolarHellas

I've noticed a couple of your plants with those waxy dark green leaves. I'd ease up on the fertilizer. Im a guy that likes to go full strength on the fertilizers (or close to it) but on the weekends I give them a break with just plain PH'ed water. As for the aroma staying on the plant and bringing those terpines out keep your parameters correct in dry/cure. Never have fan blow directly into buds and always in the dark. also try using something like Terpinator or Terpesyn. Since I started using terpesyn I never looked back. These are some mistakes I've made in the past and adjusted so feel I should suggest to u.

Every grow and harvest is a learning experience. Practice makes perfect. It looks like you’ve kept with it nicely, as you have some other good grows. I fell into the exact same trap of over feeding when I switched to coir. Something that’s helped me is using both hydro and dry nutrients at different intervals. Plants in coir like to be fertigated frequently, meaning they like to be fed and watered often. So, what I do is split my weekly feedings up to feed my plants something everyday. Feeding incrementally reduces over feeding by allowing me to catch excesses and deficiencies before they get out of hand, while also allowing me to see what nutes a particular strain may be sensitive to. Additionally, this approach makes it easier to maintain a solid PH in your soil and a solid EC/PPM. I will say this: your buds do look very pretty, so you’re definitely doing something right! Looks much better than my first harvest!
