Can someone please share an opinion on what these marks may be, I'm also getting yellowing on the very first bottom leaves
First time growing so opinions are much appreciated
Thanks 😊
Could be just nicks and bumps. Lower leaves dies off as bigger one develop is normal.
In any case, your are growing haze hybrids and you should prepare incase there will be bugs attack down the line.
First decide on a strategy. Then get your anti-insect regimen ready. For me, I spray microbes to handle bugs.
If you have spider mite infestation, there won't be many days left before plants are ruined.
Haze usually have strong resistance to mold. Also your humidity is low. So, I would not worry about mold in your grow.
This week hasn't been the best, plants have been doing great but at the moment seem a little stunted, the lower leaves of them are turning yellow and drying up, I think I overwatered them this week early on in error as plants were very very droopy and just didn't look too well, I let them dry out well before watering again and dropped the lights to 250w to help with recovery a bit as this lowered temp and rose humidity a little, unsure what to do next to try and get head round it, it's my first grow so experience isn't great but really wanting to do absolute best to get the best results possible, can anyone please give any advice on how to proceed and suggestions on what you may think it is, many thanks 😊
Hi all, after some advice on my plants, bottom leaves have started to go yellow and some have died and are crisp, the SA1 is dropping a quite a bit as seen.
Want to get these right as its first time growing experience isnt there, all opinions and advice is valued
Thank you
Droop is either a sign of under or overwatering.. only you could really tell which it might be here. The yellowing of lower leaves that aren't receiving much light aren't a big worry. I've pulled off quite a few. If you see problems arise on new growth or stuff that seems to be getting alot of light and now deep inside or way down low then i'd be more worried. Hope this helps friend. Happy growing!👊
Hi all, after advice on my droopy little bit sad looking plants, first grow so no prev exp, first signs of unhealthy plants so far really, the bottom leaves have gone yellow and are crisps on parts flaking
Thanks for advice already had
All advice is valued and thanks in advance
the bottom leaves yellowing is pretty normal. they do not receive very much light. the things that concern me would be the drooping leaves.
Looking I believe maybe they where just watered which would explain why the leaves are drooping but the brownish spots usually are a sign of a Cal/Mag deficiency.
Droopiness is no longer present I think it was under watering as I've upped the water quite well and the plants are now shooting up and hanging well, yellowing at bottom between veins think I'm going to get some calmag and start giving them that, going to transplant them this week to 15 litre pots, putting scrog net up and tieing down the stems, I've now got a 8inch clip fan so the one on the floor is gone giving room to spread them out get the plants trained down and get light beaming all over
Very eventful week plants have been transplanted from 8ltr pots to 15ltr pots which they will finish in, they responded excellently to being transplanted no shock and did not stunt in growth was growing well straight from being moved, lot of low stress training done to tie down the branches to open up the canopy, looking much better now lot more colas, scrog net up now think maybe 1more week or so and will be full ready to switch to 12-12, very happy overall with how the transplant and training has gone, upped nutrients a little now in bigger pots and seem to be reacting well, good noticable growth daily, being careful not to overwater though as now in bigger pots pots staying well a little longer
Just about ready to flip to flower now, scrog not quite gone as planned because the net is weak and the holes too spaced so will try a proper scrog next grow but still looking good lot of good growth ready for flower so think veg gone pretty well for first grow
Looking forward to seeing the bud sites start to develop, hope things in flower go well
First week of flower complete, had good growth later on in the week upped the water now as I think I was watering a little low watering everyday going to water heavier but less frequent, plants starting to stretch, fingers crossed they dont end up too far heights not in abundance😂, happy with grow so far going to do some defoliating either tomorrow or next day as plants have lot of leaves in deep shade not able to get light will hopefully focus growth even more on exposed parts and will give some parts chance to get light
Big stretch this week moved lights up numerous times, first signs of buds showing now in last few days, been on veg nutes for 11 days of 12-12 and is now on flower nutes, very bushy plants slowing trimming away some parts blocked from lights but going slow in stages allowing time to recover, another happy week so far doing well, the liberty haze is crazy tall now though haha, stretched an awful lot and got big spaces between nodes hopefully it fattens up and doesnt end up lanky with not much big buds
Buds really coming on now, I have pruned a little although I know not really supposed to at this stage but needed doing before well too late, plants missed a water last night so little droopy this morning but have watered now so hopefully pick back up all fine.
Lot of stretch again, hoping it has finished stretching now does seem to have slowed last 2 days, light very nearly at the top as high as can go
Buds have been developing well hopefully all keeps up
Had plants all out the tent and tidied up a little took all dead leaves at bottom off and looks much better
Can I still prune some branches and/or some leaves as plants are really bushy? Struggling with humidity, it's really quite warm but dull and humid at moment in uk and humidity has is around 40-50 lights on but lights off I've caught it at 60-65! Need to but a dehumidifier asap
If RH is too high then go ahead and defoliate from the center of the plant to increase airflow. This won't necessarily reduce RH much, but it makes mold much less likely. It shouldn't take too much to open her up either so she probably won't even feel it. Do it all in one sitting though, you don't want to have to go back in a second time.
Heya Rob96,
You can still remove some but I wouldn’t go crazy. Can start with removing a couple each branch. RH isn’t too high with lights off, that’s where I sit in my tent with lights off. I don’t see it as too much of a concern as I’m always 45 with lights on and then dial it down with the bud swell when she’s really close.
Cheers and good luck!
Stretch has now finished and buds fattening up starting to smell more now, overall happy with this weeks progress, glad the stretching has stopped as running out of height, plants all look healthy.
Another great week in my opinion, buds have really gained a lot of volume and density this week and showing really nice trichs, the Libery Haze smells amazing to the touch.
Really pleased with progress so far estimating should be ready to cut this time next month so really looking forward to seeing all the hard work, effort and attention pay off 😊
Growth really slowed now going into the final 3 weeks I cant imagine much more size but ripening well smelling much stronger, even though growth has slowed they have gained a little this week hopefully carry on a little longer but happy overall to be honest
Does this bud look ok and healthy, bud looks a little dark and has had a few leaves go a strange brown/goldish colour, cant tell 100% with lack of experience, the part with the discoloration does smell a little less strong than the rest of the bud, any advice much appreciated
If those brown leaves are slimy, it's likely bud rot. If they are just crispy, you may be fine.
Just a bonus, it looks like you're still going a bit heavy on the nitrogen...
Had a little issue this week, had a cola on SA3 got a little rot on it and started to turn brown very quickly and much different to the rest of the plant or any of the others, I decided to chop straight away. The rest of the cola is fine and the rest of the plant doesnt seem to have spread and to be honest really not sure why but hey ho it happens and its first time. Everything else apart from that slight mishap have gone great everything looking really quite frosty now, roughly 2 week left until chop. Been feeding nothing but clean water no nutes this week and will continue to do so now of course and il be doing a flush either tomorrow or next day whichever I get chance and then another a couple of days before harves. Lastly as can be seen really pruned a good few fan leaves this week too, has really helped to drop humidity in this last week which is handy going into really late stage so happy days, Hope you all enjoy seeing how things going, not far now :)
Had another really rough week suffered a little more rot on SA3 and on 1 main cola of LH, to be honest the liberty haze is getting close now and fingers crossed the rest looks really well, constantly trying to fight high humidity at the moment hate UK weather and how it changes, you get all 4 seasons in 1 day, caught humidity in 70 region, lights on its down to 30-45 due to the lights but lights off just cant get it down, bought a dehumidifier but it hasnt worked at all really so I have sent it back and got a monster 12 litre one coming thursday so fingers crossed they can hold on, the rest of the plants seem to be holding on really well regardless the SA2 is looking great nice purpling going on and the buds are so dense, same with the LH only had 1 cola suffer and caught it early, the rest looks good so fingers crossed, SA1 also looking well, not quite as nice as SA2 but so far has suffered no rot at all hopefully not jinxing myself here, SA3 has definitely suffered most but does still have a modest bit left on so hopefully can hold on to it and keep the rest safe, plenty of air flow going on, intake at bottom 5 inch fan, 5 inch extraction but more powerful fan, and a 8 inch clip fan oscillating across canopy, not long now on day 60 of flower and LH is 60-65 days and SA is 65-70 days, know this isnt a rule of thumb or anything to go by specifically but they are not far off now, hopefully just hopefully my first crop although has been hard and had some obstacles turns out to be somewhat successful, cant wait to go again feel like I've learned an awful lot on this first run I can do much better
Are my plants ready, they are getting drier and leaves crisping up, I keep checking trichomes every day but too much amber yet just odd bits, I'm trying to hold out a little for a heavier stony high like a night time smoke but not wanting to go too far and ruin it, any advice
Heya!
Kind of hard to tell by the picture but, if you judge by the pistils usually 70-90% ambered is a good time to harvest. The best way is to use a small microscope or jewelers loupe to have a glance at the trichromes. Most people harvest when all the trichromes are milky to 30% amber. If you harvest with more milky trichs it will produce more of a head high effect, where as more amber trichromes will give you the couch lock effect.
I would suggest looking at the trichs if you can, I have had plants ready to harvest with lots of white pistils left still and some where they were all brown.
Cheers and good luck!
Just to update all as can be seen plants have been chopped now, I'm awaiting the drying before weighing so will do the harvest week journals once all done. Chopped Liberty Haze down early this week on day 63 of flower and chopped the Strawberry Amnesia on day 67
Gave plants a quick decent wet trim and will do another whizz round once dry, apologies no photos of Strawberry Amnesia 3 post crop this is due to the fact been mega busy was so busy on the day I cut them I simply forgot before put up to dry to be honest that harvested by far the least as this was the plant is suffered the brunt of the rot with.
Overall happy though cant complain as this is first ever run and I really have learnt an awful lot this first time so I know much more for next time, hoping to get one back up quick a nice short flower one just in time for christmas.
Looking forward to seeing the final weight, will be exciting to get back up and running as I know next time will be even better.
Hope anyone seeing this or have been following have enjoyed seeing the journey, best of luck to all you other happy growers
Overall I would say really successful first crop 1 plant 71.36g and I've smoked about a q the last couple of days before weighing as I ran out😂🤣 also considering I had to cut the biggest cola due to rot and a couple others medium snips I'd say really nice yield, looking really nice, smells amazing, does need a little cure to get the taste there a little more is a little harsh but not too bad at all, had fun growing this, just ordered 3 seeds of barneys runtz muffin and got a free wedding cake so that's me sorted for round 2 will be back soon, still got the strawberry amnesia to finish drying, 3rd day in so far so will be uploading that once done, hope anyone following or even glancing through has enjoyed viewing :)
Suffered rot with this plant on the Strawberry Amnesia 3 however the rest of the plant and the other 2 held up really well and produced some really good quality smoke. Not sure what average yields are but to say its first grow with zero experience growing anything a combined total for all 4 plants 233g 8.32oz really pleased with yeild and should deffo keep me supplied up until next one ready. Had a lot of fun growing these and learnt so much I cant wait to run again, got seeds popping now will be planted in next few days, really enjoyed the experience of growing really surprising how much you can make and the quality you can achieve with little experience, actually much better than a lot of the weed about my area at the moment, saved me so much money not having to buy any as am quite a heavy smoker, anyone scrolling through not started yet and thinking of doing so I would certainly recommend.
