Hi GC'ers, I was you guys could offer some advice Basically I have 1 AKR 5 weeks from seed and the pistils are turning brown already see pics attached. I have been watering every 4-5 days 1L with 2ml BB grow and 5ml BB bloom. I have checked her today and some of the pistils are turning brown. I have checked the pH but can do so and I noticed some of the leaves turning purple a week ago but assumed due to some cold weather that was the cause. 125w red CFL 65w blue CFL. Temps range from 80 to 60 when dark. Is this normal for this strain ? What would you guys suggest ? Thanks in advance B Uploaded with ImageShack.us Uploaded with ImageShack.us Also some of the lower fan leaves have turned yellow and dying but I assumed that was due to the light being less intense lower in the room. Would you just leave this is and wait and see ?
Just checked today a couple of days later and the problems seem to be getting worse Fearing and early harvest Hi All, Please can you check these out ? It looks like a P def BUT I am feeding her 6ml of BBB every watering and checked the pH of the solution and it is 6.7 so that about right ? She will be 6/9 weeks old on Friday and I am fearful at this rate I will have to harvest early !!! Should I flush and hold back on the nutes ? As said I am feeding 2ml BB grow and 6ml BB bloom every 4-5 days or so and the temps are 80-82. Please help as this is starting to drive me mad !!!!

Heres a pic of my AKR that is now in the dry net for 2 days. AKR planted July 4th, July 18th and pistils popped out, and still no amber trichomes today, only pretty cloudy! Just cut a branch off to test. Your AKR is much taller and heather than both my plants combined. They have a 64 day flowering time, meaning 64 days after seeing those fat pistils spread, but it may be a tad more. Oh and if you look at my signature, you'll see her even though shes so small and pathetic, shes the best smelling and most sugary out of the 2. The purple came on mine too! Nug tips are purple on both plants actually. Maybe I have very cold night temps, dont know.
No I would not stop feeding. Imo. The color of the pistals means nothing when it comes to harvest. Get yourself a 30x or better magnifing glass our microscope abd look at the tricombs ( crystals ) a lot of people hardest when they are half cloudy half amber. Hope this helps.
I feed up until 2 weeks before harvest. Then i switch between molasses/water and regular water, then flush it wait till that's bone dry and harvest. Looks like you gave her too much nutes.
Gave her 2ml BBG & 4ml BBB today so will see how she gets on ! I checked the pH and run off is 6.7 so thats ok huh ? I guess she will be ready in 2-3 weeks time which will be 8-9 weeks from seed - i plan on watering just pHed water.
How many weeks of flower? She looks awesome. She will have a killer scent after even only 4-5 day cure.
Killer scent mate it didnt need curing to smell !!!! Prob cropped an oz off this plant and it finished after 8 weeks and some of the heaviest dankest shizzle i have ever encountered - if you want couchlock and cancope with the odour grow this shiz
Hi ive a akr that is ready as of today. YESTERDAY however she looked nowhere near. All trichs are cloudy... Nooo clear. About 5% amber. But all hairs are white. So the plants obviously looking for pollen and therefore growing BUT 95% cloudy 5% amber. I flushed last night with ph water and left her looking good. All green leaves etc. Today i went in and wtf.... all green leaves are yellow and crumbling! All hairs still BRIGHT WHITE. So today I'll chop her because i understand hair colour change to red don't always happen huh? Crazy but being an auto grower primarily ihave seen hairs mean little. Maybe I'm wrong but hair color din't change here. Why is a plant that's giving all cloudy some amber trichs still hunting for pollen? WHY O WHY DAGNAM IT
