She had a little bit of trouble with nute burn, even though I wasn't feeding her that much. She took a while to go into flowering. I couldn't get any photos of the last couple of weeks because my phone died, but the buds fattened up really nicely and she smelt awesome. She is a really smooth smoke, and she is really fruity. She gives a really nice high, and she is really strong. She has an amazing fruitiness to her, in smell and taste. Towards the end she fattened up really fast. I wouldn't say they are the biggest buds I've ever seen considering the name "big bud", but she definitely have a real decent yeild.

I really enjoyed my first grow. I learnt a lot with this first grow. She had a little ups and downs, but all in all she was a great strain to grow.

I don't see any signs of a copper deficiency at all🤔 Throughout the life of the plant. What I can tell from a brief look through your diary is; 2 weeks ago you started with your nutrient line, but I guess you thought you had given them too much, or what you had given them was enough and you didn't need to feed them anymore? I would advise you to carry on feeding them with the veg schedule for another 2 weeks as she is going to start to stretch now, potentially 1-3 inches per day and you want her to have enough available NPK to develop properly to get full potential. You shouldn't even have to worry about PH adjustment as you're using an organic nutrient line... Adding PH down can in fact kill off your micro organism heard. I've grown with BIOBiz it's good stuff!! You've decided to grow organically which is a good choice. Now you have to get into a mindset that you "feed the soil and not the plant". I will quickly explain what that means so your not left clueless. - chemical nutrients are in soluble form so when they mix with water your roots can absorb them directly which is why you have the potential for so many deficiencies and or lockouts. Managing PH is important in this case if you don't use any form of organic nutrients to sustain the microorganism population and buffer the PH. - organic nutrients are virtually plant and or animal waste which is then broken down my the micros and bacteria that live in your soil and then fed to your roots acid kills them so to much will hinder there production. I hope I've been able to give you a little insite on what goes on. There are so many variables when it comes to growing. I can see you're doing well, just don't be put off by something that doesn't even apply to you. Spend some time looking up Info on organics nutrients. Go to the menu feature on growdiaries website on the left, you can see nutrients, find biobizz then you will see all the grows using there nutrients. It was a very long post I'm sorry for that, if you have any questions I can direct you to the information available. But I can also tell you from experience✌️🏻️

@Charlie, sorry I never got round to answering you. Looks like your doing just fine now. To answer your question yes the tip discoloration is from a lack of nitrogen. However at this phase if the plant can't absorb nitrogen from its roots it will take it from the leaves✌️🏻️

@PharmaZ, Thank you so much for explaining that to me. I did get a little worried that I had given her too many nutrients. I really appreciate the feedback. I'm a first time grower and all the information out there can get a little overwhelming. I'll give her a normal nutrient feed tonight, and then keep on going as I was. I won't use the pH down then. Thank you for explaining it to me. I had never looked at it in that light before. So what do you think the leaf tip discoloration is then? Just a reaction to the nutrients then? I really don't want to harm her by overfeeding or whatever. Anyway, thank you so much for your in depth "analysis", I really needed some advice.

Hey there I will update for you!! She unfortunately stretched from improper techniques; my grow tent has had some heat issue unfortunately so having to switch to cfl bulbs have caused the stretching; I did bury the stem when I felt she could take it and that took care of my issue.

Mine had a slight droop to it Aswell; maybe the genetic gets overwatered slightly easy; who know but she’s looking amazing @Charlie! Keep up the good work! -FirstTime

@FirstTimeGrower, Thank you :) your girly is looking really good too. I can't wait to see what they look like when they start to flower.

Delilah is looking gorgeous! Keep it up! Good idea with the fan too; I’m still fairly new at this, but I did notice a diffence in how thick the stalk and stems get when you add a fan; makes the plant more hearty for sure!! -FirstTime

Looks like you've been hitting the feed just right, have you been PH adjusting your water? Keep feeding the you could probably ease off on the bio Grow now drop it to 1ml/l till week 8 then cut it out completely👍🏼 If you ever want to get another opinion you can always come comment on one of my diaries✌️🏻️
