Hey guys,

Here are my two plants. One with LST and the other was regular. Pretty big difference!

Anyway....so this has been a really long grow forMe with some step backs along the way And that honestly threw me off and I’m not sure what week or stage I’m in if flowering. I’m over half way for sure and maybe in the final stages? can you guys take a look and estimate from pictures Alone? The pistols are still clear with about 40% milky. My thought was if y’all can’t help narrow the timing down, I am just going to wait till I see amber and then 2 day flush. If you can help me with this and the question below I would appreciate it! .


Also the red stems started showing up. Is that an issue?

Plant Info
-the plant strain is Reba.
-grown in two hydroponic 5 gal buckets.
- I add about a gallon a day of water to each bucket and every 5-7 days change out the buckets for new ones.
-nutrients (per gallon of water)
Floramicro 10ml

Those are very dark green. Too much N can make them leafy-er than they need to be. Shoulda marked a calendar when you flipped them to know how far along they are. You could cut your nutes in half and probably yield more weight. I use GH at half your rate.

Wait why is it being dark green bad? Why would cutting nutes in half help?

Don't listen to him dark leaves are great and don't cut NUTES in half wtf. Btw beautiful plants friend. Great set up great results. Are these autos ? And for bulking up I would run Beastie buds by foxfarms for 2 weeks or OverDrive by advanced formulas then I would water with molasses for a week then flush with molasses for a week then flush with str8 water for a week. Then you should be good to go if your not at that point already. If your thinking they can bulk up then they you have probably 2 to 3 weeks left

Thanks man, yeah they are autos. On the flush I was reading that since my medium is hydroponic I would only need a 2 day flush with ph’d distilled water. Am I Misinformed? If so I’ll get some molasis but not sure about changing the nutes at this point.
Also is the red stems an issue?
