Looks like I've had my lights too close to this one as well, I frickin burnt the whole upper canopy, not too bad but I'm still pissed with myself. It's grown another 5" this week and I just left the lights at the same height all week. Bud production seems slow too, not sure if that's a result of the lights being too close or something else.... could also be right on track, I'm not sure what to say. My Gorilla Glue that is six days younger than this girl has much larger buds already.
I'm sure there's no major damage done. I have to water her tomorrow so I'll check the EC/pH and make sure the coco's in good shape... I've neglected to do this the last few feedings.
Day 51 Update...
The EC reading in my coco was pretty high... around 5.7EC and the pH was really low @ 4.6. I'm not sure why my pH would be so low? Anyway, gave her a bit of a flush and have everything back to normal now. Hopefully she has a quick recovery and starts packing on the bud meat!
@CaciqueCayacoa, Thank you!! I just had a look at your profile, seems we have a couple projects in common. I love all the Mephisto you have going on, That's what my profile is about to look like soon, lots of Mephisto and FastBuds gear on hand! Those guys are gonna keep me busy for a long time. Hahaha, anyway.. Thanks for the kind words, I'm off to check out your profile some more.
These are about to EXPLODE in the next couple of weeks. You have great structure on them already. The stretch at the beginning of flower is going to make you so happy haha
Thanks @Jaindoh, Really hey? I've not heard of doing that at flip. I ended up leaving it in the dark for 48 hours, but can't really tell if it had any benefit.
@CAMOGROWN, I decided to give the 48 hours of darkness before harvesting a try with my Blue Cheese, I hear a lot of opinions as to whether this has any benefit at all... Sometimes ya just gotta figure this stuff out for yourself. By doing so, I've freed up some space in the tent for the little ladies. Can't wait til the new tent arrives so I can avoid this in the future.
Thanks @BudKingsGrow, I haven't even started with the beans from the care package. This was a Seedsman freebie. Keep an eye out in the near future though... I've got about 54 Mephisto diaries coming lol.
@Jaindoh, I actually just switched over to 3 gallon pots for all my new projects. I've read that 5g is probably overkill for a plant that lives less than three months... wanted to give it a try and see what my results are like in smaller pots. Helps utilise floor space in the tent too... which is quite valuable these days.
@TheOutlawBubbaKush, yep, so close I can almost taste it lol. and yes, it's a bit high. They recommend 10-30ml/g for late phase. I start with the Terpinator early on in flowering at about 6-8ml/g and ramp it up from there. I've been told you can use way more than I'm using with no adverse effects... I've personally never had an issue.
@DougFresh, Yep, sometimes they take a bit longer. Starting to see more brown pistils every day so we're getting there. I fed her today, that'll probably be the last time... I'll wait a few days now and give her a good flush. We'll see how it goes from there. I am in no rush with this one.
@DougFresh, I don't do much to my autos with the exception of some defoliating on the small stuff down under. I do see people LST with their autos but I like to let mine go as natural as possible.
