Another week has passed. The weather was not great early in the week, but improved later in the week. The plant has been outside roughly 4 days in the past seven days. The plant grew 2cm last week as expected. The flowers are also doing well, you can see some flowering on the stem of some leaves now aswell which is good. I stopped putting the plant under extra lights at night (I stopped about 10 days ago). That way it has a shorter light cycle which is good for flowering. The intensity of the smell varies day by day. Some days It hardly smells while other days it smells "normal". I guess there's nothing wrong with that. Harvest is till quite some weeks away I reckon. Notced the pland had leaf miners on four leaves (as I could see now). I just cut the whole leaf as seen in the pictures. Will need to keep an eye out for potential more leaves that could have leaf miners in them. Compared to last week, no extra leaves have pfysical damage. The pale leaf at the bottom is still the same, the damaged leaves from insects have not changed. All good for now! I'm also working on a "lessons learned" list which I will publish on the week of harvest to give an idea of several things I learned during my first grow (apart from the obvious things like light cycles for example). Other than that there's nothing more to report.

@@rawmeat, My biggest mistake was not checking my plant well enough each week. I was checking it, but not thorougly enough. If I didn't have to throw out buds because of aphids and the ones which were not ready I would have at least 50% more yield, maybe more. I also trimmed my buds very flush (the one in the picture is one of the least flush trimmed buds I have) which cause the yield to be a bit less. All in all I'm still happy and preparing for my next grow.

Atleast it was a successful first grow and the next one will be better!

@blackrain, Thanks, man. I am a bit disappointed in myself for not spotting the aphids earlier because it could have bine better. But when I started this grow, my goal was to not fail and learn stuff, so mission complete. I'm preparing my next grow and plan to be a bit stricter with regards to nutrients, water and checking the plant. Also trying some different strains.

@Mr_ROCKET, Thanks mate! The buds are curing at the moment and am planning to do a complete smoke review when they are done curing (in a week or 3).

Hi Fetanq, the white dots on your leaves & the hairs in your flowers as shown in your flowers at the top of your plant photo will indicate when it is time to harvest, you will need to seem them up close so a magnifying glass or similar will be handy, the plant does not always all ripen at the same time so can be done in stages if preferred. Lots of good info on the Growweedeasy website, the LST technique will help you get sun to your lower buds on your next grow, too late for this one. Looking Good though!

@Cookie_Monster, Thanks! I'll also check the website you mentioned.

Hello! I am growing Quick One outdoor as well and I know that an universal fertiliser is not the best choice for the flowering stage! Try looking for a fertiliser with higher PK with respect to N. Good Luck!!

@Mr_ROCKET, Thank you for the tip. I won't be able to get something different for this grow, but will look out for something for my next one.

Hello, friend! Your plant looks awesome! Don't worry for the pale leaves, because it's completely normal: mine as well is getting fan leaves yellow a lot! P.S. You've said that you've just stopped feeding her, tough I still see 2 ml/l of nutrient: I think you'd do better if you stop completely, especially given that its universal fertiliser with a equal NPK ratio!
