did you like the results of the fimming or would you rather recommend topping?

13/05 fed low strength (went with about 1/3rd label recommended - 3mls into 850 distilled) ozi magic gro juice to start week 2. watered maybe 50mls or so, will keep an eye on how they react before feeding again. germ heights both probably just under ~5cm, one noticeably smaller than the other - presumably the one damaged at paper towelling. don't think these girls will remain in this pot for more than this week. pic uploaded, taken a few hrs after feed at pretty much bang on 6 days since potting, 8.5 since soak.
14/05 from this untrained eye germs are looking g, not noticing any potential nut burn from feed/problems developing and will pic again tomorrow. propped up plastic w skewer as i've seen condensation collection causing the bag to cave a bit. no water today. tent around a steady 23 & reached low of 15 deg last night. coldest night (by a degree) forecast yet coming up. tent air was def reading around 14 for at least an hr during lights out.
15/05 cool snap continues. tent air temp reading dropped below 20 w lights on for first time at early morning hrs min - probably around 7am. with an overnight low of 5 outside it seems the light alone is capable of stabilising temps under it by 10-15 degrees. reading steady 22 during daylight hrs. pic uploaded @ day 8. following lights out ie at start of plants day watered w ~100ml distilled
17/05 whole week has been low overnights between 5-9deg, adjusted air temps down a deg for this week as every lights off has touched 14s in the tent. progress pic uploaded, planning on transplanting to final pots prob tomorrow
18/05 started the morn w hygrometer issues - main display read ' - / - ' from the transmitter... which has it's own display that seemed to reading fine. reconnected it but kept playing up with no clue why. ended up just removing batteries from both and has seemed okay since.
watered w distilled, ~150mls or so between both. filled final fabric pots (~20L) to a few cm under rim in prep for transplant following lights off and placed under bumped up light (maintain ~35cm distance to plant) just to bring substrate temp up to grow environment. under-filled just to allow additional packing to support the plant in case it becomes top heavy. germ pot sitting on top one of the filled finals during lights on to directly on top the warming mat at lights out.
will do some digging and invest in some taller ~20l (5 gal) fabric pots ie smaller diameter than 30cm
the higher light and introduction of filled pots has dropped temps by a couple deg and jumped humidity as expected. light off a half hr earlier than previous sched toward 19/5. first mild night this week coming up, ~11 deg forecast and 14 still at 2100.
19/05 final pots feeling nicely warmed, repotted while germ substrate still damp. definitely think size difference wasn't improving due to larger plant taking over the smaller in a shared pot. rookie mistookie. big sis plant just over 5cm, smaller sis plant more around 4cm ending wk 2. amazing root growth, couldn't believe it. small water w distilled but didn't soak through given the good drink yesterday and wanting to feed shortly (might feed lil sis first?). took a few more pics for reference today - plastic not being replaced. light goes off another half hr earlier again today, another mild night coming up w rain forecast so should see some high tent humidity. i'd give the ghetto exhaust a run but reckon they'll like the humidity. fed lil sis following lights on

howdy growers, seeking advice re: spots developing? did recently up feed strength but only to about 2/3rd label and would appreciate experience on whether this is more likely nut burn/particular deficiency/ph/??? pics and even more detail included in my entries, cheerss

Did u water well the lights were on? Potentially get any on those leaves? Water on the leaves during lights on can cause burning from the grow light being magnified. All areas affected look like potential leaves to get watered/splashed on.

howdy growbuds, noticing the pictured discolouration. hope someone w more experience/knowledge might recognise what's happening to my gals before it develops. advice/opinions welcome on if maybe nut burn/def, temp or ??? a heap more detail in entries to help diagnose. cheerz 🙏

Black or blueish patches on leaves (specially bottom ones first) are a first symptom of phosphorous deficiency, which is very common in the flowering stage, it means you need to up the flower nutes. Also I have to mention that it can also happen due ph been out of range and since you don't post pH values, I have to assume that you are not measuring and adjusting it, meaning it could be a reason for the issue you are having. Whatever the cause, the patches will start to look necrotic and if not solved, the issue will continue, severely affected leaves will develop dark metallic purple color patches, will also curl, wither and drop, as the plant takes the phosphorous out of the bottom leaves to try to power the bud formation.

hey growbuds, approaching harvest and after experience/advice on what this green sprout on one bud is?? seeds suggest 9-10wks flower and they're just hitting end of 9, is she on the cusp of going too long in bloom? things have been cruisey so no clue what else it could be. cheerz

These are male pollen sacs, not a good thing, your plant is starting to hermie. One of the biggest worries with a hermie (a plant with both female and male parts) is that the pollen sacs will burst and pollinate your flowers. This will "seed" your buds. In other words, this will cause your buds to start focusing on producing seeds. Hopefully, I answered your question and remember " Happy Growing and Free your mind one puff at a time ".

@Maggie_de_Block, hey mate. hard for me to say as i haven't topped before, what i can say is that i'm happy with the results i got with fim'ing which i went with for 2 main reasons. 1. potential for 4 points of new growth and 2. slightly less stress as the butchered growth heals and continues to grow and the half leaves do their plant thang producing energy rather than losing all of it. seems overall tho that both techniques are equally utilised by experienced growers and many go for a combination of both. more important to just do em more than one being more effective than the other :)

Water spots are always a possibility too. On my 19 day old auto, it has a little bit of damage from light bleaching, water splash, and a fungal infection that was there probably before it sprouted and was introduced by contamination from my humidifier. Its hard to tell what damage is from which, except I learned from my first grow to be careful when watering (but its still easy to splash a leaf) and that if I did get any on a leaf, to kill the light until the plant dries so it doesn't become scorched through. Once it begins pre-flower, I'll switch from 24/0 to 18/6 since this strain gets picky about heat in flower and I don't have A/C.
I think Cal Mag is almost universally used even in soil (you might find some super soil users who don't need it). And I think every big nutrient company has a Cal Mag supplement. I didn't use it last grow and had major deficiencies in calcium, magnesium, and iron well before the end (they began around week 5). I think you burn a lot up in veg as calcium is needed by plants to develop healthy stems and leaves just as we need it to form teeth and bones.
A magnesium deficiency can take over 5 weeks to show symptoms and will often go with a calcium deficiency, but it has distinct signs of its own. At any rate, if you check the label of whatever your nutes are and compare it to what's in Cal Mag, you'll see its near universal (you probably don't have much of either in it and I doubt its in your soil unless its organic).
I like to keep it simple but I don't think you can dodge adding it, whether you buy it or make your own (its as simple as things like epsom salts for magnesium but I still preferred to just buy it once and be done with it).

@Spyder7, all about keeping it simple here too but yeah i'll be headed out to get a small bit in case more are spotting up over the coming week. sensi cal mag xtra looks like a locally available product. bloody hoping it's not a fungus/disease, but it is just getting into winter here so things are more ofter than not damp outside around this outdoor tent
