Wait till the hairs curl in against the bud structure and most are colored. Look for around 20% amber trichomes on the buds not sugar leafs for my favorite harvest point. 🤘😤

Hello. Think I have a nitrogen toxicity from too much nitrogen last week. Been using only plain water so far but haven't fully flushed the plant. Any recommended solutions for me to get her back to being healthy? Thanks in advance.

2 hours after changing nutrients we have noticed the stains on leaves with some leaves wilting & drooping. As ph,ec & air/water temperatures are within range, oxygenation and circulation are good, what could be the problem:too much UV ? a fan blowing DIRECTLY on the plants? tx

Plant Light stressed? 11 pm I switch from 100 to 1000 watt led. Woke up 9 a.m plant was drooping. Top 3" soil little dry so I watered with 5.8 ph water only, still drooping. 100 watt was 18", 1000 was 21" but moved to 25". Blueberry muffin seedlings responded great no issue.

I came home to NL2 looking a little sad. The bottom fan leaves seem unaffected. However, the upper parts of the plants make it seem underwatered. NL1 is doing just fine. This is a first for me. Any thoughts on what can be the cause?

Any tips to improve the quality of my bud and overall plant? For both indoor and outdoors would be appreciated but outdoor tips are a necessity, thanks! Also, a few of the plants entire head and leafs are sloping to the side, any ways I can fix this problem so early on?

Hey GD community need help bad Please see pics and tell me what you think of the back left plant. It looks like it is completely dying. And they are still 2-3 weeks away from my anticipated finish. Rest of my tent and strains look fine and auto feeder is working. No malfunction.
