Your pics are terrible mate. Impossible to see what is going on. We live in a 4K world, I am sure you can do better.

From what I can see it's either spots u trimmed off and darkened or dark green spots from old leaves? But better pics would make me identify better your issues. Good luck 👍

The bud site towards the lower middle of the plant. Should I get rid of them if they aren't keeping up with the taller buds or should I leave them to see if they catch up? I have upto 8-10 nodes per stem due to LST training

How long till harvest? and when to start flushing?
How long do you think till harvest? Trichomes are still all clear. And should I start flushing her? Today I watered her and I was thinking about this as the last time with nutrients, or is it too soon? Thanks

How long to flush?
Using a DWC system, how short a flush would be acceptable? I am on the 5th day, but I am concerned about letting the buds get 'over ripe'.

Continue to LST?
With the way they look right now would tieing every arm apart a little at week 4 be safe and make a difference? Or should I leave them alone being so late into flower?

Reddish brown pistils, end of week 3 of flower.
Pistils turning reddish brown and curling. Day 20 of flower. Female seeds. No sign of hermie. Only new addition to schedule was calmag which was added at half the recommended dose. Everything else looks and measures fine. Wind or nutrient burn?

Pistills Dark Pre Flower
I wanted to ask an expert why the pistils are showing such a reaction at the beginning of the flowering phase. The VPD values have consistently been in the optimal range, it can’t be due to excessive light since even buds at the very bottom are affected.

Will there always be fresh bud growth on an auto-flower (max thc/no couch-lock goal)?
ready for harvest bc most of the pistils are mature? Clearly not yet because of new growth? The trichromes are looking like a mix of clear and cloudy, little to no amber yet. I would like to know if there will always be fresh pastil/bud growth even when she’s ready for harvest?

Early harvest to avoid damage ?
How can I tell when to harvest when the plant is dying fast but the buds are not fully developed. White pistils, clear trichomes. The plant distress is close to reaching the buds, with some sugar leaves browning.

Main versus secondary maturing
This secondary lower buds seem to be maturing faster than the main colas. The pistils are turning dark faster on the lower than the upper. Not by much, but it's noticeable. Maybe a week or so? BUT, should I take the secondary buds first and leave the main colas to mature more?

Too early for harvest?
Hello,I'm looking at one of the quick ones and I see that the pistils are starting to become amber. Is she almost ready to harvest? Personally I think the buds are still small but I haven't used any nutes so.... will be waiting at least another week before harvesting (or longer?)

long flowering?
Hello everyone, tell me your opinion, this baby is already 11 weeks old, but the bumps have just begun to form, is this development normal? I understand that it is still growing for at least 3-4 weeks?? And in what week do the buds begin to gain mass and volume ??

Zdarec, přemýšlím nad tím že dále bych pokračoval s metodou SCROG. Kdy a jak s metodou nejlépe začít? A má to vůbec smysl v mém stanu 45x45x120 cm ? Děkuji za každou reakcí 😉 . Mír
