Overfeeding your plant its the worst mistake and harvest to early.

i personelly like to go more low on the phosphor side when i get close to harvest and keep potassium at the same level

Early flowering transition my npk is 1-3-3
Middle flowering 1-2-3
Late bloom 1-1.5-3

To much phosphor will make ur weed taste harshe and burn dark and cant lock nutrient ...

Trust me u want sulfur right now to bring the fruity taste .sugar ...not more then 100ppm sulfur and nitrogen like 115 less near the end

Sorry for my english im from french quebec!

That looks dank. Hard to tell by the pic because of the foxtail hairs being white. Kinda throws you off. The trichomes look like they could use ~another week. You want them to start bending over. Any way to look at them in white light under the scope?

Will try. Not much light in there with main lights off. I am running a demudifier 24x7, keeping rh at 40%. Will post better scope pics later.

I think the trichs are close enough and I would be so scared of bud rot that I would take them right now. I hope your humidity is below 50%. That's the most awesome grow I have seen for a long time Mr Beginner.

mate... exact same jars I just purchased.... wicked! Only issue I have with bulk is the slowness of growth. My critical mass has grown twice as fast.

End of week will be harvest. Stop feeding today or feed to the end?

I feed until the end, but I switch from fertilizer to sweeteners like cane sugar/molasses based stuff. A few days before harvest, quit feeding and let the plant use up the rest of it's water in the medium.

I will fill resi tonight and only add my bloom sauce. Wednesday I will cease feeding until harvest day.

I fucked up timing by 4 weeks, so have a sativa and an indica ready to flip. Will be an interesting mix. can only scrog the indica, so will get roof prepared for yoyos for the sativa and chop my scrog frame in half for the indica.

Well the time is here. Dramatic change when I checked on the girls today. 30 - 40% Amber.

Didn't bother with scope due to visual signs. They were cloudy anyway. They got flushed this AM for the last time. In regards to what happens next. I understand the drying process allows the chlorophyll to break down. What confuses me is the method. Every man and his dog has a method. Boil, drown, starve, magic rain bud dance.

As I understand it, the plant once chopped keeps growing for a bit before dying. Hypothetically speaking, if I chop tonight and start the drying, would this not achieve the same results as for comparisions sake, I stop feeding the girls and let the plant use the extra nutes up.

I know this is the make or break point and I would like to get it somewhat right .

Thanks!

Everyone enjoys bud porn!

It's done. 12 hours in, still going hard.

0 waste. The whole lot turned into buds. So happy. 4 months of hard work to get here and 8 months in total since we first started planning.

If there is interest I will post up my next grow.

Enjoy
