I have to say that despite the excitement from being so close to chop, this was perhaps the most uneventful week of the grow besides the plant becoming a lot more thirsty and the buds getting fatter. Same height, same amount of milky/clear trichomes and no amber ones. Very few pistils turned brown. Humidity could be lower but not stressing over it.
Day 50 - Watered 2L half strength nutrients. This will be the last watering with nutrients
pH water before nutrients 8.5
pH water after nutrients 6.5
pH runoff 6.5
Day 52 - Watered 2L no nutrients but used pH down to make water pH 6.5
Day 54 - Same. Watered 2L no nutrients but used pH down to make water pH 6.5
Day 56 - Same. Watered 2L no nutrients but used pH down to make water pH 6.5
The leaves on the plant are beginning to go light green. Then I noticed this leaf with an unusual spots on it. I’ve been responsible with the nutrients. Hopefully this leaf isn’t suffering. I’ve moved the lights up a few inches to be safe.
Hey @ UnknownError!
¿Did you apply any foliar spray? If you did, maybe some drops stayed on the leave causing little burning points.
If not, It could be a boron deficiency. But is so unlikely to have a deficiency of this time.
@The_Bearded_Grower,
After doing more research and checking out what I have going on, I believe you are correct. I'm going to give it another two weeks before chop, keeping a close eye on the trichromes. I got my seeds through North Atlantic Seed Company. I tried to order through Fast Buds but they wouldn't deliver to to US even though I am in a legal state. I finally managed to get an order in through Seedsman for my next round but I haven't received them yet. They should be here soon though.
@Reaper,even though there are hardly any amber trichromes? I want to cop so bad but I was waiting for the amber to show up. I thought it would be ready by now.
@Euphory, Thank you! I still can’t believe how weird and wonderful these flowers are. Sitting pretty in jars right now and every time I open the jar burp them, I can’t help but be like WTF these are so fragrant.
@Reaper, thank you! I didn’t want to chop but the nutrients were running out as you mentioned. The nutrient I was using I’m not sure if I was using the wrong kind meant for hydroponics or what. I didn’t have as many amber trichromes as I would have liked but the buds would have went from alien purple-black to dead light brown.
@Joegrows, highly recommended! This was a hearty plant, easy grow with out-of-this-world results! I’ll definitely come back to this one at some point. Make some of that purple extract 😁
@Reaper, yes! Day 21 from sprout the first pistils were showing. Now there’s huge colas getting fatter by the day. I hope this translates into a good yield & smoke. So far these are looking very healthy very quick!
Hey there,
Thanks so much for running a diary of our genetics 🙌
Let us know if you need any assistance, we’re more than happy to help.
Happy Growing !!! 🌱☘️🌴🍀🌿🌳
Did you say it was your first grow? Sure had me fooled ;) Looks fantastic my friend. Absolute beauty of a plant. Congratulations and enjoy the smoke. Best of luck on your future grows. I'm gonna keep an eye out 👍
@Treighfunky,Thank you! Yeah my first grow but I did the research on growing and genetics first. Also put in the patience and capital (thank you quarantine) to do it right the first time. I have another round going of different autoflowers but I haven’t started an online diary yet it’s just notes right now.
If you are struggling with what nutes to give and are using Advanced nutrients they have an app "budlabs" that tells you what to give and when. Hope this is helpful. Also fast buds tend to say 9-10 weeks and they mean seed to crop, it normally takes mine around 11 or 12 weeks though
