3 Royal AK-47 (Auto - First ever)

xs8commented

@Dubb79, I couldn't resist so I took more small buds and dried in the oven again, but this time got me pretty high... The only problem is that is more like a sativa high and I love the couch knockout effect. I'll wait more in order to let more trichomes to turn amber :grin:

You could also clip another bud or two, let them air dry (no oven), and test smoke again. If the taste and buzz are satisfactory for you, then hey, that's all that matters isn't it. :alien:

Patience. You must be very patient at this point. Clipping a bud or two to test was not a bad idea just to test it out. But they are not ready yet. You will be able to tell when the trichomes turn amber by comparing them to the pics you posted this week. This is the point in the grow where most growers (especially newer growers) make the mistake of cutting too early. If you want your efforts to pay off, trust me, wait longer. It will be worth it. :alien:

@Dubb79, I think you were right, I flushed yesterday and until now no more yellow leaves :D

@xs8, Yes. I use Sea Soil and worm castings. They provide all the nutrients needed. :alien:

Hi dab, you said 0 nutrients; Do you use organic soil?

@xs8, I would think so. You should harvest based on the color of the trichomes. You'll want to cut them down when the trichromes are at least 80% cloudy. Right now they are clear, but they will turn cloudy, then amber colored. Cutting at mostly cloudy ensures you get the highest THC content that you can. Better to harvest 2 weeks late rather than 1 week early. :alien:

@Dubb79, Do you still think that my plants are 1 month far from harvest?

@xs8, I didn't realize that you were growing an auto-flowering strain, so I guess 20 on / 4 off is ok. :blush:

xs8liked comment

Do you have the lights on for 20 hours at a time? Or is that info above not accurate?

Looking back at your previous weeks, it it seems that you may have been giving them too much nutrients. The plants may not have been taking them all up at that point, but now that they are into the flowering stretch they are likely soaking up the unused nutrients in the soil; leading to the burn.

xs8commented

@Dubb79, I gived more nutrients because the NPK ratio was too small, but maybe you are right about the unused nutrients, I'll try with a flush, thanks! :grin:

xs8commented

@Dubb79, Yes, 20 hours of light per day, isn't alright?
