Need to look where the hairs are. 4 weeks or so probably.
Yeh i see theres still lots of white pistils yet. No amber trichromes either. After looking again its a mix of transparent and milky trichromes.
So yeh Its weird cause this one WW Auto she preflowered week 4. But then again she was stunted because of the bad cotyledon and the bad first set of serrated leaves. Still I never thought shed make it. ILGM says the grow time is 10-14 weeks for the WW Autos which I think is long for an Auto.

I noticed today some of the fans leaves are getting a little less darker green and a few yellow spots forming. So hopefully she is starting to suck nutes from the fan leaves since I have been giving her only regular water for awhile because of the Nitro tox a few weeks ago when I gave them the 1-1-1 Dr Earth liquid according to Dr Earth feeding schedule. I think you cant use that feeding schedule with Fox Farm Ocean Forest and Happy Frog because they are hot although Happy Frog not as hot as FFOF.

The new organic soil I am making from scratch is going to be probably hot too. So I am going to make a batch of soil thats less hot for autos too. Probably just 1 part Vermiculite, 2 parts Perlite, 3 parts Worm Castings and 4 parts peat moss. Then give compost tea as needed. I ordered the Bubblesnake for the 5 gal buckets and the compost tea fliter for it. Ill use it next grow for feeding. This grow all i did was a couple top dressings of EWC and Dr Earth. But the 1-1-1 liquid definately pushed them too far on Nitrogen using hot soil already.

Trichromes heads are falling over now. Fan leaves are starting to show signs of being sucked for nutes. I've been feeding straight water for 3 to 4 weeks now. Should be plenty of nutes in the leaves and soil for her to finish. The buds swelled a bit more too. She's still drinking pretty good too. She's loading up the trichs.20211104_080900.jpg

Blueberry auto from ilgm says 8 weeks. I didn't chop until week 17 almost 18.

Gorilla glue from ilgm says 8 weeks. Im on week 11 of flower. Still probably 3 more weeks.
Flower times are for sale purposes only from what i noticed.

From those first set of pictures you still have like 4 weeks or more. Keep feeding.

Beginning of week 10. The girls are coming along the skunks start week 4 of flower. The WW Autos flowered different times due to different phenotypes. The one is in week 7 of flower and the other is starting week 5 of flower. I topped them up with Dr Earth Bud and Bloom boost dry ferts 2 days ago. They are drinking more every day. Im going through 5 gals every 3 days.
Temps are ranging from 77F Daytime to 68-70F nighttime.
Humidity is between 35-45%

I just check the pH and ppm of the runoff of the one WW Auto that's showing the yellow brown blotch in week 7 of flower.
The pH was 6.16. The ppm is 5100!
This is all organic nutes grow and I only just topped her off with 1/8 cup of Dr earth Bud and bloom boost the other day. The past 4 weeks I've given her straight 6.5ph tap water that has a ppm of 177.
Should I flush the pot or just let it go since it's organic soil?
Runoff water is also light yellow color like urine.

I just joined here, but I've grown quite a bit over the years and one thing that's helped me is that if I think it's ready I try waiting for one more week. I've never been disappointed. Waiting on a harvest is 2x as bad as waiting on Christmas. Lol. Your plants look fine. I just started the exact same strain. So I hope you have given me an idea of what my future has in store.happy growing and thanks y'all for welcoming me in.

86 days from seed now. The one Super Skunk is flowering like a mofo still. When I poke my head in the tent whew she is really smelly now. Those terpines are pumping piney scent. She even has a couple sporadic amber trichromes but with a while to go still. The WW Autos still swelling little by little every day. Still no amber trichromes on them yet.20211125_080059.jpg20211125_080351.jpg20211125_080739.jpg20211125_075913.jpg

“Nipsey Hussle “ … PPPFFFT . None of that “ celebrity “ branded shit is anything stellar … I’m in Cali too.

Celebrities are riding the cannabis train anyway they can … even Justin “ Poofy “ Bieber. They don’t grow it , they don’t run grows , they are simple marketing puppets. Brass Knuckles carts for instance … already had a prob / tested badly awhile ago. Try suggesting small farm offerings instead of dead rapper crap.
You don’t got to disrespect nip just to say you didn’t like a strain

Strain names are generally pulled out of the air for idiots to “ buy “ because it drops a name ……

So I guess it tastes like “ nip “ ? …. Made from his foot cheese ? …..
Try not to get to attached to stupid shit.

WTF is this disrespect bullshit …. The only DISRESPECT would be “ naming “ a house blend after a dead mumble rapper.

Guessing you think Mike Tyson weed is grown by him too.

Or xzibit pushing Brass Knuckles bullshit.

I guess Ferrari labeled weed would be “ top shelf “ … GTFOH wit that shit.

Lol this little skunk bud cane off the bottom branch somewhere while I was tying some of her branches up. It's tiny a one hitter. It looks nice though after drying on wax paper for 3 days.

Well I chopped the 2 White Widow Autos today. The Xmas tree shaped one weighed out to 264g wet.
The Ruderalis shaped one gave only 80g wet but was half the size and diff pheno.
They hit 16 weeks and were in 12th week of flower, leaves were dying, they both werent drinking very much.
Was taking 5-7 days for pot to get dry enough for watering when it used to take 2-3 days.
Im going to take a look and take photos of the root balls tomorrow after I get up to get an idea if anything was going on there.

Chopped them right before lights out. I am content with the swell and the trichrome color now. They look really frosty in real light.
I'm happy with the results of my first ever Cannabis grow. Now time to trim a little and hang dry. Clean the tent and transfer the PKs into the tent.View attachment 5058660View attachment 5058661View attachment 5058662View attachment 5058663View attachment 5058664View attachment 5058665
