Transplanted my CBD Jam plants into 5 gallon pots.

Thought I had a thrip problem in the veg tent looking at the leaf at the top of the picture at about 11 o'clock. It has some type of variegation IDK. No black dots is a good sign.
Also notice it is the only blade on the plant like that, another good sign I guess.
Another one of the CBD plants also has a variegated leaf.

I think it's harmless, I'll gamble that it is.
From a distance I really thought it was thrips.
Broke out the magnifier and was relieved to see no black dots that signify thrips.

Damn!
6 days since I updated.

@H.A.F. is killing it with an impressive yield, I can see now why you pegged him as a contender.
Glad he's not around anymore to tease me when I post my pics.

Just not watching the thread. Like I said - if you need me just yell ;)

Just because I don't feel like re-doing the pic with a number, here you go.
The Dyna-gro plant has some autumn showing.

The others still look like burnt ass.

That's not that bad. No curl, little burn. I thought you nuked it or something.

Thanks - first time seeing colors on the skunk.

Nope, they all had the same pH pen issue, this one just took it different and never got worse after I fixed it. I really don't think any of them have gotten worse - they just don't get better.

The dark makes it think it is about to die, so it produces whatever extra trich's it can in one last ditch effort to catch pollen - and that it takes 3 days to see any results.

All jokes aside, These plants already think they are going to die. Without photosynthesis, they will Because they are starving!

Plants need 3 things to grow.​
  • Light​
  • Water​
  • Carbon Dioxide​

Photosynthetic organisms are photoautotrophs, which means that they are able to synthesize food directly from carbon dioxide and water using energy from light. Carbon dioxide is converted into sugars in a process called carbon fixation; photosynthesis captures energy from sunlight to convert carbon dioxide into carbohydrate.

Without leaves, The plant cant do this!

Keep following that "Feeding Chart" and you will continue to get the same results - Burnt Leaves and Unripe Crops.​

But they aren't growing anymore. They're done - or will be in 3-5 days. I didn't prune any more leaves on the ones still growing.
Also, it was feeding at the wrong pH for almost a month due to faulty equipment and me not checking - not the schedule. I use it as a reference, and never fed them what the thing said usually 50%.

Not even close.

It's also laughable to think that cannabis 'catches pollen' with resin. The pistils are what 'catch the pollen'.

In regards to dark cycles before harvest, I'd encourage you to do some side-by-sides with clones. I did some tests about 17 years ago on about a dozen different strains.
