- I discovered 4 male plants, all of them were tangie, the grow is doing good, hopping to get big yields. I can already see the bud sites developing. Foucusing nutrients on P and K and little N. I´m also adding a lot of granular calmag.
- The grow is looking great, plants are growing fast fast fast. Almost doubled in size since starting flower in week 6. Bud sites are starting to develop and smell is starting to change slowly. No problems so far, aside from the OG kush plant that I could really never get back on its feet (I’m thinking it’s the genetics). Girl Scout Cookies (the only autos in my grow) are smelling pretty nice and are developing thick buds.
Why are the leafs on my plants getting dark green instead of a light green? Is it because of the strain or nutrient lockout (nitrogen toxicity, too much potassium, too much phosphorus?) or perhaps not watering enough?
Check your leaves. If they are curling and/or clawing it's nitrogen, look for it in the Newest growth. If your leaves are shaped "right" then it is not nitrogen and they are just dark.. Without seeing nice and clear pictures of a "problem" plant it's very hard to tell unless they are suffering badly. From what I can see they look totally fine, if there is clawing/curling it's only minor. You don't even need to cut the Nitro out altogether you just go lighter on the feedings if they indeed have slight toxicity. Lots of growers just do very "light" feedings every time they water. The plants need the nitro right now and will eat it up just don't wanna oversaturate them, if it is indeed a case of slight toxicity. You are in Great shape really if it is a nitro tox, you've got plenty of time before flower so you can really get your plants dialed in before you flip :). I hope this helps if you need further information please pm me I can help :). Happy growing.
Do this trichomes look ready to harvest? Do they look any good? The pictures aren't of the best quality, but I tried my best to capture them with my equipment. This are the pictures of the plant (overall looks) and the trichomes (around 600x with microscope)
You can say it better than us, since you can take a better look to them, I would recommend you to harverst them when around 80% pistils get brown. If you have a lens/microscope you can check if the glans turn from clear to sand colour.
Was there any info from the breeder on flowering time? 7 weeks feels a touch early, but you’re almost there for sure.
I’d keep using the microscope to check daily (I’m sure you’re on it) or every other day.
You will know instantly when the pistils go milky - you won’t need to think about it, or wonder ‘is that milky? It might be. Let me check again. I think I can see it starting. Hey, is this milky or not milky?’.
Awesome grow man :four_leaf_clover::ok_hand::skin-tone-3:
@Resin_Randy, Thank you man! I appreciate you checking me out!
