What is this?

Looks like a lot more than 3 weeks too me

Technically yes. I like getting to the breeders recommended chop time though. Why? Because at that point I know if there is any major issues you can just chop her down and your good. I usually aim for a week or two past breeders time, but I like thinking in terms of if shit hits the fan perform an invasive maneuver!! Next time I am going to water until runoff all the time, flush plants at week 5, and start giving them a half dose of nutes starting mabe week 5 or 6. My soil ph after doing my slurry test came back I think at a 7, idk, but it definitely isn't close to 7.2. Its closer more to a 6.8. That should be fine, so im assuming it was the flush and not having enough nutes. I thought this was going to be sooooooo easy. Luckily I am determined. Growers are definitely not stupid, that is for certain. Feels like I'm working on a car

Breeders time is worthless

Go by what the plants show, nothing else

Would vinegar work better?

You gotta start listening. You don't have to pH buffered soil. Don't use organic pH adjusters, they are not stable enough.

My nute water is pretty much the same. Looks like its hanging around 7.2 mabe 7.1. I dont have ph down or up, and not gonna buy it either. Organic growers use lemon juice and vinegar, so thats what I'm going with. It should work fine, better nothing

I would suggest stop using lemon juice. It will be readily metabolised and converted by bacteria becoming alkaline raising pH.

It will only cause MAJOR pH fluctuations just so you are aware of that, low to high. Don't trust everything you read on the net.

I dont have a jewelers loop. I'll be good for this grow, just gonna stick to the plan like my last two grows

I didn't use vinegar or lemon juice, I was thinking of it, but never did it.

Ya spend all this time growing them, make sure they are finished,or you have waisted 3+ months of time

Its not a waist as long as it does what its supposed to . I understand though, you want to get them at their right point, but your a pro so that ofcourse is your goal. My goal is to increase yields and to get successful harvests of usable product. I will get to your level soon enough, right now I just got to keep focused at meeting my two criteria. Hell my last grow was wayyyy worst then this, and we still managed to pull 2 months worth of medecine. This time I can already tell its much much better. One of my plants already beat both of my last guys weight wise. All 4 actually beat my previous guys. Were I live weed is expensive. 300-400 an ounce!!!! So just getting a successful harvest is a blessing if you get were im coming from.

Successful harvest dosent mean just cutting it down

Cutting it down when ready will increase your meds strength and the harvest

One or two weeks can make or break a harvest


Trust me, it's well worth the wait

This is her today after nutes yesterday. I dont think she got worst which is good. That may have been the issue was the flush I did on her. Learned my lesson, flush on week 5. At the very least this girl has a little less than 3 weeks to go

Try 5

I know what your talking about, im just saying if she gets bad. Idk I'm not used to nutrient deficiencies, and always panic like its going to just fully kill my plants. Im going to have to see. I see alot of people get nute deficiencies and still pull good yields, so I guess its not the end of the world.
