    Hey everyone I started my flowering cycle on August 25th. About 7 weeks ago. I was wondering if any people with experience could take a look at my pics and give me any advice. Just want to know how people think they look at how much longer I should be until harvest?

    These pics the plants look a little wilted because I broke my ankle and couldn't get to them for 3 days. Just finally watered them today. After these pics.

    I don't know the strain it was a bag seed. I have been using fox farm nutrients on there feeding schedule. Also in a 10 gal pot, with 9 CFL's using the clamp lights.

    I really appreciate all the advice and help. This site has been amazing and a wealth of information for me!

    This is a video I took today of her.

  2. Foliage is looking dark, you're feeding too much nitrogen imo. Beside's that, looks pretty good...she should be ready in about a month.
     
  3. See feed back like that was exactly what I was hoping to get. Thank you very much.

    Maybe I'll start feeding once a week? Right now I'm at twice a week. Cut the nutrients in 1/2?
    I think 1 of the bottles with the fox farms nuts has more nitrogen in it than the rest. Il have to take a look at the bottles when the lights turn back on. Maybe cut that one out.?
     
  4. This is today, 8 days later. So should I still Expect to harvest in about 3 weeks? Is there anything special I should be doing before I harvest.
    Like do I need to quit watering and feeding at a certain time? Should I do a flush?
    I've read some people put them in complete darkness for a day or 2 before harvest?

    Thank you so much for the information!

  5. Try doing just a plain ph'ed water feeding every other time, but otherwise looks pretty nice.

    Being I'am 2-3 weeks away from harvest should I just be doing straight water? And no more feeding? I'am using fox farms nuts. Last time i fed them was yesterday.
    When should I quit watering all together?
    Should I put them in darkness for a certain amount of time before I clip them?
    Thanks again!
     
  7. I usually flush for the last 2 weeks. They'll stop drinking, you'll know. No, no dark time. That's debatable & purely user oriented. Also, I use a flushing agent for the first week & straight water for the last. Nice whitish ash color & burns fantastic.


    While you're waiting, go ahead & read about proper drying/curing.
     
  8. Perfect! Thank you very much! I will look into a flushing agent, I know fox farms has sledgehammer.
    How long do you think I'am out until harvest?
     
  9. Some will have mixed opinions on flushing agents, but they do what they're supposed to. They're not necessary at all, straight water would be fine tbh. I would say min 3 weeks, but I would let them go another 4. When in doubt, give it another week.


    Also, why are you foliar feeding? Cut that shit out [​IMG]
     
  10. I read to not cut the plant that it can put stress on it, also that those leaves help take in light for the plant. This is the assumption I was under from what I have read at least. Correct me if I'am wrong please!

    Thank you!
     
  11. Read into LST or some other methods of training. Those lower colas could have gotten alot bigger if put to light.


    Looks awesome to me though....but I'm a noob just starting flowering with my set.
