High Bro!
Always happy to help.
And for the streching it is 100% natural and normal for a plant to do this during pre flowering.
When pre flowering the plants will strech for 2-3 weeks.
When you grow a Indica dominant strain you need to expect her to become 2 times bigger then just before the pre flowering period.
And when you grow a Sativa dominant strain you need to expect her to become 3 times bigger then just before the pre flowering period.
And for you growing a almost 50/50% hybrid it will be somewhere between 2 and 3 times.
Look at the website from the breeder or the page from this strain on this website to see how much strech you can expect in the pre flowering phase.

Thanks for the feedback guys appreciated, had in mind a couple weeks at least. neglected this plant a bit, should of had its own space when it was vegging with the photos, ended up stretching like mad which i think is probably impacted yield, but not too fussed about yield.

It's a little difficult to say with just one week in your diary and no still photos at all - but generally, when you first start to see the amber trichomes appear, you'll want to harvest within about a week. Don't worry about the color of the pistils... they will ripen up and turn color as the buds dry.
Good luck!

High bro, when 70% from the trichomes are cloudy and between 10-20% are amber the plant is at full potency and ready for harvest.
The trichomes are the ONLY precise way to tell if and when a plant is ready for harvest. And they contain all the goodies that make us high! 😋

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? txWeek 5

why does my sour diesel plant look so sad and weathered while the chem dawg looks healthy? I thought it could be either wind burn, under or over watering or too much nutrients, So I moved the fan, waited until top of soil was dry and added no extra nutes when watering again. HELPWeek 1

Plant was critically under watered in mid bloom, lower leaves crisp and even upper leaves beyond wilted to limp and not recovering.

Drying Techniques, Which One?...I have a question on drying, what are your opinions?
1)drying the whole plant fan leaves & all
2) drying the whole plant with only fan leaves removed
3) wet trim, cutting each branch off separately & then hang drying
I'm looking for best quality flower not the fastest.Other. Harvest - Drying
