A lot of yellowing going on. Someone on another forum mentioned it was probably a N deficiency which makes sense because the bat guano only has phosphorous. So the only N was coming from the compost in the tea I make (not sure if there is any in the sucunat).

She still has 90% clear trichomes so I don't think so. Plus new pistil pop out constantly. I whipped up some fox farm nutes last night and fed her. I figured it'd be better to just get some nitrogen to her. Nothing noticeable yet, but hopefully I notice something new when the lights come back on.

Well if anything this grow has been a learning experience :) I won't make the same mistakes again. The seedlings are doing much better now. A little bit more growth from them but they are still small. I now have the UFO on them along with the cfl's. They all have about 3 sets of nodes. I plan to top them a week or two after they get out of the seedling stage. I'm also going to LST them and grow them out a fair bit before I flower since they are all regular seeds and I expect at least one to be a male.

It's been a while but I have some new update pics. Juliana bounced back some from the feedings but all the yellow leaves ended up drying out and shriveling up. Many of the leaves fell off but the buds still look good. The buds look just about done. Most of the hairs are shriveled and red but new white ones keep popping out. I see barely any amber trichomes though. Maybe 1%. The rest are about 75% cloudy and 24% clear. I used a flushing chemical the other day to break up and salt build up. Now I have to figure out if I am going to feed again or let her finish up with what she has. She is suppose to go for another 2 weeks but I might have sped things up with the mistakes I made. I'm going to wait one more day and see how she is doing. If it looks like new growth is continuing and there aren't any more amber trichomes I will let her keep going and give her a fresh feeding. If more trichomes turn amber then I might go ahead and kill the lights and harvest her in a day or two. I'll just have to wait and see.

Yup I FIM'd but I FIM'ed the FIM. Turned out to be just a regular old topping once the new growth started up. We'll see how the yield is once I harvest, but I don't expect it to be too high. The buds are fairly small.

I checked the trichomes tonight and I was surprised to see that there are now a crazy amount of ambers. Two nights ago there were barely any and now it's like 50%. So I watered her along with some flushing solution and turned off the lights. I'll probably chop her down tomorrow since I don't want even more trichomes to turn amber. She is still swelling also. Since I figured out the feeding problem she has expanding by about 25% and gained a little height on all her buds. There are still a number of white hairs especially on the top of the buds, but I don't want her to get over-ripe. So it looks like she finished about 2 weeks early from the problems I had. I'll put up some pics after I harvest.

Okay, I went ahead and chopped her. From what I see all the trichomes up high are cloudy and all the lower ones are pretty much amber. Maybe I'm early, maybe I'm late. I won't know until I test her out. I hung her in my closet to dry and split a paper bag up the sides to hang over her so she doesn't get too much light. It is open on the sides and bottom though. I put a small fan up above her to blow air out of the closet and I have an oscillating about five feet from the closet that blows air in from the ground up to just below where Juliana is. It only blows in there at the very end of the fan's rotation. Think this will be enough air flow? Too much? Is the bag okay how I have it? My house is hanging around 85 most of the time so I am not too worried about mold but I am worried she may dry out too fast. Any advice about what I should do?

I just went and checked on her and she smells exactly like fresh peaches. She had a faint odor of peaches before but now that is all I smell. I'm hoping the flavor matches the scent.

Yeah some seedlings but they are all screwed up. Wrong lighting to start with and the heat has been ridiculous. Plus I might have been over-watering them. The tops would dry out extremely fast but the cups were staying heavy from the water in the bottom. The roots must be pretty good now though because the soil becomes dry throughout the container. They are somewhere around a month old and just a few inches tall. They look really pathetic. The lower leaves are yellowing and browning and others have discolored veins. So I am going to feed them some light nutes. Maybe that will jump start them. I had them under a UFO and two 26w 6500k cfl's for the past two weeks which did help them out a little better than the lights I had them under to start. I put them in the grow box last night after I harvested Juliana. If I don't see any improvement in the next week or so I am going to have to get rid of them. Then I'll probably wait until it cools down again before starting anything new.

Yup, 17g. I have a few pics from after I trimmed her that I'll put up later. She dried out fast but seems good now that she is in some jars. When I open them the buds are gooey and pliable. I let them dry for about 10 minutes and when I close them up they are slightly crispy. The first time I opened the jars she had pretty much no smell and was still moist so I let the buds sit out for about 6 hours. Now her smell is coming back slowly.

Well it turned out okay. I got 17g of bud and about 5 grams of trim I tried to use the gumbie hash method on but there wasn't enough for it to work so I made butter out of it.

The bud gets me high with a nice clear soaring high, but is lacking in aroma and flavor. I'm thinking that is a result of the heat issues. It was burning a little rough but has smoothed out over the past few weeks.

I have some seedlings that were doing really bad but since I moved them into the box and gave them some nutes they have started to bounce back. I have 2 Indian Haze which are both showing female preflowers (they are old just extremely stunted), 1 Brazil x KC Brains which is suddenly growing sideways for some reason, and a bag seed which is still dragging ass. At least the 2 I.H. are looking really good now and they are both female. I'm hoping the BxKC figures out what it is doing and starts growing normally again, and as for the bag seed I have the feeling that she won't be with us much longer.

I plan to veg them out for a few more weeks and then flower them. If the Indian Haze's continue to grow the way they have been I will probably top them and try to make them more bushy.

Congrats on the harvest jebus!! I actually moved to a smaller grow so I could go inside and take advantage of AC and cooler ambient temps. Much better so far

Hi anyone still following this. I'm back again. The buds from the last grow turned out okay. They were a little harsh for the first month but the last few buds I had turned out pretty nice after curing.

The seedlings are doing much better now that I have AC in my house. The two Indian Hazes are both female and the brazil x kc is too. The bagseed was showing male preflowers so I chopped him. The brazil x kc got pretty messed up by the heat. Once she started growing again she turned in on herself and got stunted again in the process. Now that she has gotten bigger the knot she put herself in has loosened and it almost looks like I trained her the way she is. Yesterday was the first day of flowering for the I.H. and I'm going to let the bagseed get a little bigger before I flower her. I'm going to start a new thread for the 3 girls so when I do I'll post a link here.
