Declining soil level in pots - top them off?
StunFlowerstarted grow question 5 years ago
When I set up the pots for my outdoor grow I filled them about 1" below the top of the container. Since then, the soil mix has settled to the point where it is now about 4" below the rim of the pot. Do I need to be concerned? Should I be topping it off?

You can if you want. You say it's a 7 gallon pot so you probably have 4.5-5 gallons of soil. That is plenty for an auto. If you want to top it up do it when she flips to flower. Add 1.5-2 inches of pre moisten soil with the start of flower nutes and give a lite feeding.

Приветствую, бро! В случае просадки субстрата, рекомендуется восполнить его уровень до ранней отметки, предварительно слегка вспушив верхний слой (1 - 3 сантиметра) старой поверхности, желательно это делать осторожно, не повреждая корни у поверхности субстрата. 👌😇👍 Обычно усадку субстрата даёт агрессивный полив, возможно вам поможет в будущем идея применения капельного полива, чтоб исключить размыв или усадку субстрата. 😉 Удачи, бро! 👋

How much time could it be until the plant is ripe?Looking at the image of the trichomes (and ignoring the little black lint xD) can someone give me maybe a rough estimate on how long they could still take? Could it be a week, could it be 3 weeks?
I feel a bit unsure because I already see some amber ones too.

I got to harvest in 14 days: in order to have enough time to cure it before leaving home for 2 weeks (safety first: is a period of floods in here, I just can't take the risk). I had a pretty long vegetative stage but I'm gonna finish it at 13 weeks. Am I gonna ruin it it, right?
