4/27
Flowering day: 24

Quick update-
Everything is going pretty good. Nothing new happening so just one picture of the girl but both plants are coming along nicely.

The hermie is looking ok, going to try some foliar feeding to see if that helps it. I've been knocking the male parts off as they come along, but I know I'll miss some. Still, since the two plants are separated I can salvage the female flowers off the hermie, even though some will be seeded.

The girl is doing amazing, beautiful leaves, nice buds forming and damn it has a delicious smell! If the dried bud smells/tastes anything like it does now I'll be super happy.

Flowering day: 41

The girl is doing great, but I've mostly given up on the hermie. It was much too tall and lanky anyways. But that's ok because my girl more than makes up for it with her beauty!

She is starting to fill out very nicely, her main cola is getting very dense and tall, while her lower buds are fattening up and frosting over. Only a few more weeks until she is ready!
 
Quick little update, my girl is starting to show the spotting leaves problem on her fan leaves, just like the hermie. I've narrowed the problem down to a ph imbalance and have flushed both plants. Hopefully we'll see improvement in the next couple of days.

Btw, I leave the closet door open during the day and my whole house smells great! I love the smell of my girl, if I could capture this smell I'd make candles out of it!
 
Good news everyone!

I have been having a slight issue with both of my plants where the leaves would start spotting and start dying. It happened on the hermie first, and started happening to my girl about a week ago. I got some advice from this very helpful community and we determined it was most likely a ph issue.

Today I went out and bought a digital ph meter and checked my soil. I couldn't get a solid reading but it was somewhere in the range of 5.3 to 5.8. Of course this is much too low! So after flushing her out with ~4-5 gallons of purified tap water her ph is now ~6.4! Wooo!

I am very hopeful this will clear up any nute deficiency caused by a ph imbalance. I'll get some pics up tomorrow for some bud porn. She is getting close!

Thank you everyone for your support!
