Hi 420 Family. Start of week 5 and things are looking great. These ladies have exploded... They all seem to be doing well at this point. Only problems that I can identify last week was that the stems (especially the main ones) started to wilt later in the day. They are not soft or limp, they just sort of bend slightly at the tips. I am not sure what is causing it, but about 1-2 hours after watering they seem to be fine again. I have taken off some of the larger lower leaves, like 3-4 per plant; during this process I snipped one of the main cola's mini side branches by accident... She seems to be doing okay tho. They are also starting to smell at this point and it gets a little more intense by the day. Smell is very sweet and earthy, so quite pleasant. On day 27 I gave them 700ml of water with the growing schedule nutes; yesterday they were quite dry, so I gave them 1L of plain PH'd water. This was for preparation of the pre-flowering schedule feed I will give them tomorrow. Let's see how it goes, so far so good! D32 - 8 Aug - I have taken the advice from all the comments and answers to my question; I have done some LST on all of these ladies. Only the one WW's main stem is pulled to the side, the rest already have too thick stems... For all 6 of these ladies I have pulled open the very first 4 branches from the bottom and one or two of the third set from the bottom just to open them up to more light. This was last night and the pictures are of this morning, they seem to respond very well to it. Can already see a bit more pistils and they are all facing up. Still keeping at the pre-flower nutes until the end of week 5. For now, they have had their last feeding on day 30, late the evening and I want to have them dry up a little more before I water them again - I assume by this afternoon. So far so good!! Current height: WW1 - 35CM WW2 - 35CM WW3 - 55CM PL1 - 50CM PL2 - 55CM PL3 - 58CM D35 - 11 Aug - The stretch is hopefully over soon..... They have gained about 10CM average in the past 3 days. Light is sitting at 45CM+- from tops, I have moved the tallest ones to the sides, with the shortest ones in the middle; it seems to even the distance from the light in a way. I know that I am losing a lot of light at this stage tho. Nevertheless, I have accepted my first-time-growers-fate (lol) and I can just hope for the best at this point. I have learnt a lot from this grow and I am definitely going to improve on the next one. For now, steady as it goes. Feeding approximately every 1.5 days with 1L of bloom-schedule nutes. My one Purple Lemonade has very strange leaves and some of them seem slightly deformed and lime green on the inner part of the leaves. I have flushed, and I have also done a week of just water, I reckon it is just this specific seed that was sort of bad. End of week 5 height: WW1 - 45CM WW2 - 42CM WW3 - 59CM PL1 - 60CM PL2 - 66CM PL3 - 70CM PS: In these past 4 weeks I have learnt so much from other growers here on GD, so a special thank you to each and everyone of you for guiding me thus far. :) Many blessings to everyone, stay safe and good luck with your grows.!

Hi 420 Family. Quick question: Would it be too early to give them quarter/third strength nutes at this stage? About 2.5 weeks old (since they broke soil).

Your diary says your soil mfg says 3-4 weeks before needing additional feeding. Please adhere to that. If you start feeding your seedlings, you may overfeed, even at 25-30% For example, I use FoxFarm Ocean Forrest, and I normally don't feed for 30-45 days. If your plants are looking good, don't force feed, "just because". If the breeder says, the strain likes nutes or not, will determine whether you start at 50%, or something less, after the 30-45 day period. If you get nute burn or lockout in veg, you can most likely grow out of it, but if you do this in flower, you will have to live with knarly looking leaves until harvest. Good luck, and good common sense down the road.πŸ‘

Hi GD peeps. How much should I be watering these 10L fabric pots? So far I have bsen doing 500ml with no run-off, and just did 1.5L with little bit of runoff. Should I soak the pot on every feed with about 1.8 to 2L, and leave until moist-dry before next feed?

Hi GD peeps! The ladies are doing well so far, but my one Purple Lemonade has been dodgy since day 1. The leaves started out oddly shaped and sort of twisted; now they are even more so and have a strange lime green color. Same everything as the rest in the tent. Any ideas...?

Hi GD peeps! Thank you so much for all the help and answers so far. You are all amazing <3 So I have a question regarding the bottom single leaves (the very first ones) should I be taking them off or trimming them? They don't get much light anymore due to the larger leaves.

Hi all. So I have 6 plants with a 400w HID. 3 of them are about 10-15CM taller than the others. My light is currently about 45CM from the top of the tallest one. Would this affect the shorter plants negatively? Should I raise them to the same level and up the light to 60CM rather

Personally, I would just do some LST bending to even off the canopy. That said, the small difference in light won't cause any noticeable issues.

Hi 420 Family. So I am very concerned about the one WW.. It looks like testes haha. Is this normal? Only the one has them, and there are a couple of them on the older branches - usually two at a time and a branch node. There is one with two pistils coming out of it, the rest not.

those do look like sacs, perhaps your plant is a hermie. i have heard people picking those off and still get a good harvest, or you could cut your losses and chop her. if they are sacs they will pollenate your other plants and could ruin most of your hard work. when the plants get seeded up there is little to no smokable bud, when the plants do not get seeded they give us what we want, female buds that are dense, tasty and sticky. while the seeded up ones lose that as they focus more on making that seed. the thing about hermie plants is you can not even use the seed as the offspring will all be hermies. so you can take some time and pick them off with tweezers or chop her, or take your chances to see what happens

Hi 420 Fam. So I would just like to get your opinion on my 3 White Widows. Only SOME brown/slight yellow orange pistils here and there. Tomorrow (26Aug) is start of week 8. Should I start flushing tomorrow to have full 2 weeks, or do these look like I can start flush from week 9?

Stop! Don't flush. You still have 5 weeks or more left in flower. I'm assuming in the other answers, they thought you meant week 8 of flower. You still have lots of time left. Wait until at least 60% of your hairs have turned red AND curled back into the flower. Just a sidenote: flushing is altogether pointless and harmful. The science is not on the side of flushing, but if you must flush, wait at least 3-4 more weeks. Cheers!

Hey GD peeps, it's me again. :) Looking for some advice on this little lady for her harvest - 10 days of flushing so far. 1) Should I trim all fan leaves and leave her for 3 more days, 2) 2 days of darkness after the last three days of flushing? Any advice here would help! TY! <3

i would give her another week of flush, after that you can chop, r put in to darkness, if you can check your trichomes as that is the best way to see if the plant should be harvested, i looked at the fast buds, for that strain and they suggest a flower time of 30-35 days, most strains flower for 7-8 weeks, so if you let it go another week, you should have a better yield as well as a stronger smoke, either way with all the flushing you have done she will be ready when you are, as far as doing the dark it does not really do much except the darkness helps ripen the buds faster, so to make it easy, chop and hang when you are ready, good job on the grow

I would try to train the taller plants so the canopy is even across all the plants. A combination of LST and super cropping would work great.

@@Athos, I have taken your advice and done some LST on side branches and the one main stem. The others stems are too thick haha. So far so good and they have much more light coming in now. Thanks for the help.
