DAY 43 The plant keeps on growing well and is stretching, growing about 10-12 cm per week. The fan leaves below are still drying out (the first three sets are affected), but it doesn't affect the growth and/or bud forming so I'll just leave them as they are. If someone is reading me and had the same issue or knows what is wrong, please let me know in comments. I'll appreciate it a lot! Watered the plant with 1.5 liter of water PHed to 6.1 with BB, BTI, and Flawless Finish by Advanced Nutrients (I use it as a magnesium+sulfur solution for deficiencies). DAY 45 Wow, that was quick. Grew like 10 cm in just two days and I had to lower the plant. Hopefully the stretch will finish soon. Drying of the lower fan leaves slowered down a lot and I don't think it'll be a problem anymore. It was probably due to underwatering. Started smelling a lot more, but still normal. DAY 46 Watered it with 2.5 liters of water PHed to 6.6 with nutes. Plucked off one set of dry leaves at the bottom and a couple of smaller leaves from the side colas also fell off, yellowing. Now I'm almost sure that's because of underwatering/lack of n. Measured the runoff PH and it was 6.2. Will be watering with a bit higher level of PH, something around 6.5 to 6.7. DAY 49 She's still growing, but the stretch is coming to an end and the buds are starting to fatten bit by bit. I will change the second lamp to 2700k tonight. The lower leaves are still drying out/falling off and that's why I bought a LED strip and installed it down there. Maybe it helps, maybe not. At least won't have that much larf bud. May defoliate her soon.

Can you mix botanigard, mosquito bits, and neem oil in one watering? Won't neem oil be counterproductive and act against the other two fungi? Thanks!

Many soils contain some beneficial insects as well as pests... I know if heard of some compost companies that definitely contain good tiny bugs. With neem i don't think everything is known. It'll repel some pests with it's scent and then kill others who eat the leaves its sprayed on. I think you should use botanigard and mosquito bits first, and then wait to do a neem oil treatment if needed.

Saw a flyer in the soil today. Had to kill it though so it's a bit smashed on the photos. The yellow mite is really tiny and on one photo you can see the tweezer's end for comparison. Should I let the soil dry out and then continue watering with BTI/botanigard once a week?

Black one looks like a Fungus Gnat. And the other is a soil mite i think.. here's a link on how to rid yourself of the soil mites https://residencetalk.com/how-to-get-rid-of-soil-mites-fast/#:~:text=Soil%20mites%20are%20like%20fungi,found%20above%20the%20potting%20soil. and a link about fungus gnat control https://www.epicgardening.com/fungus-gnats/#:~:text=Mix%20one%20part%20peroxide%20with,to%20combat%20fungus%20gnat%20larvae. hope this helps.. happy growing! 👊

I'm having some fungus gnats and was planning to begin LST in a couple of days so I can't keep the traps in the pot near the soil like I have them now. What would be the right way to place them to catch the gnats without touching the plant? Thanks!

Hey man, you can simply hang the traps somewhere near the pot in the air for the time being and place them back on the soil of possible again. Also personal recommendation: if you have fungus gnats try to get some sf-nematodes. It's like 5$ a pack and they are an organic and very helpful way of getting rid of gnats by killing larvae. Worked like a charm for me when I used them! Cheers

10 days ago the lower set of leaves started drying out (they get brown not yellow). They don't receive light, but now it's already started showing on the third set of leaves. Does it look like nitrogen deficiency or can it be something else? Just gave it full strength nutes.

Sorry to hear about this!! Looks like overwatering or under watering.. to test, put your finger in the soil, if its dry an inch deep then water. Otherwise use a moisture meter. Happy growin!

I may defoliate the girl soon. How many leaves should I take off and from what part of the plant? Won't it stun bud fattening? Should I take off the lower bud sites too? I've got a led strip at the lower part of my tent. Thanks a lot everyone!

They look amazing. How much did she end up giving you when she dried?

@Kilbarrack, thanks man! Just added the harvest page. She gave me 55-60g, which is a really great yield for me.
