Pic update into the 5th week of flowering. Some of her buds are really getting fat . Pleased I must say, the amount of trichomes and buds are already beating my last grow, and still with 3-4 weeks to go .


Here she is your thoughts are appreciated!

Took two lowest shoots off and got one of the bottom lights secured to the side of the box, in a position that maximizes light penetration. Might do so with the other light eventually, not sure yet.

Quick update she's pretty much on auto pilot now.

I'm watering her once a day or so, still the same nute schedule 3 waters then nutes then again. Buds are definitely getting fatter, and the ones coming in down the stem are getting bigger, some of them making one big bud. Nice trichomes all around the buds. And on the top leaves. Bottom leaves starting to turn yellow at week 6 flower. Taking them off when they're 3/4 or so bad, 2 so far.

I'll try and get another pic update on the go in the next while for you guys.

Subbed!! Looking great!! The side lighting really seems to be a great thing to have, you have minimal stretch and nice lateral growth. My lower branches are super long skinny twigs from not enough light penetration in the canopy

Keep us updated!!

Thanks a lot man appreciate the good words. Yea side lighting definitely helps with that, and another thing I did instead of bending her right over, don't like the thought of that haha. When she was younger I'd tape certain fan leaves down to the side of the pot, and this would put the branches right in the light, and doesn't look like it hurts the plant at all, after a while the tape will come off, then I'd let her go natural for a couple days, then tape down again. Grow420guide on youtube has done something similar if I don't make sense lol.

Thanks again for the reply and for following along!

Few pics please post your thoughts. Mid week 6 flowering. My girls looking and smelling great .

 

[Jwhat201]

Figured I'd tie her off just in case, week 6 day 5 of flowering. She was getting a bit too wobbly for my liking haha.

All I had to my disposal was a shoelace, hard to find a spot with all the buds. Look alright? I suppose its okay to be touching the bud like that?

PS, what an amazing sweet smell coming from her right now.

 

[Jwhat201]

Few more snaps end of week 6 flowering. Stopped nutes after my last feed a few days ago, to help with taste. Let me know what you think .

Pic update week 7 late day 2 flower. Looking good, looking good. Few more yellowing leaves gone from the bottom. Another thing I like about leaving the leaves on is you actually experience them turning yellow and dropping off towards the end of flowering, I duno, its just good to know what's going on with my girl haha.

New update my girl at week 8 harvesting in a week or less . Hairs are started to turn orange and turn in. Trichomes are looking insane, I can stare at this plant for hours haha. Nice hard buds too, pumped.

Just did her final prune after the pics, didn't limb her but still took quite a bit off for the last few days. When I really looked I found lots of yellow pretty much dead leaves behind the buds and hid away everywhere, i guess where no light was getting at them. So I got all of them out of there and took some more sugar leaves off, giving more air and stuff around the buds. Mostly unhealthy looking ones, definitely none with trichomes or anything. A few more fan leaves removed too at spots with big clusters of buds to just maximize the light and air to those spots. Also I snipped off edges of sugar leaves as a test to see if it does anything for the buds.

I ramble sometimes. Your thoughts are appreciated and see you guys harvest day .

 

[Jwhat201]

Harvest started . Got the plant cut from the bottom and hung to dry, there's a fan 4-5 feet from it on low, and a dehumidifier a foot or two from her. Gonna let it dry like this, turning plant around every now and then, until the stems make a crack sound, then cut all the buds off, give a final trim to each and then start the curing process.

Also theres another bud gone I'll probably smoke tonight lol. Smoked about a .8 so far in 2 joints, got a really good high for a while, and thats drying in the microwave lol.

Here's a few pics for you guys.
