That last heavy rain really beat my ladies up. They're a little top heavy so rught now they're laying down at about a 45° angle..
Will they perk back up on their own or do I need to stake them?

Yeah the humidity has been a bitch this year at least over here in the north east. Luckily all my strains where mold resistant because I still got a little here and there.

Stake them ladies up.A little work is worth the effort.You don't want a fat limb snapping and ruining your bud!
True that I think they're starting to stand back up on their own now that the clouds have rolled out.

Still dealing with like 3 different deficiencies and some pretty badly compacted soil. This has been an interesting first grow lol.

Also have another small hybrid of some kind I grew from some kind of indica I got a bag of in the NE. Its been a breeze to grow and looks nice and green going into its 6th week here in a few days.

Buds are looking good so far :bigjoint:

Anybody know whats going on with my leaves getting a little pale. The tips and leaf margins near the petioles seem to be turning brown as well. I got some Florabloom to supplement PK since the other GH nutes I'm using are only 2-4-4.

Well depending how far into bloom you are yellowing is normal. Usually the plant doesn't need nitrogen after week six of budding. Unless heavily sativa dominant then longer. But in the final weeks the plants do best if they get nitrogen from the leaves rather than the medium. This also allows fan leaves to drop off and let more light in to buds. You should be using a bloom booster and heavily feeding p and medium k. I use fox farm water soluble nutes. Cha ching and beastie blooms. You look like your doing good for first time no need to worry.

Also make sure you have available calcium for the plants as well. I also feed my micros sugar water and kelp in the final two weeks. No nutes it helps flush your plants and gets the shitty taste out.

Yeah I'm just paranoid and having to force myself to just leave them alone. They're about 35 days into flowering plus or minus a couple days.
I'm using bottle nutes from the GH Go Box.
I've been trying to keep things simple so I cut some other stuff out but I'm still using the Biothrive Bloom, Biobud bloom booster, a little calmag, and the florabloom. I might just hit them with a little dose of grow nutes next watering which might be a little while that rain flooded them out good.
Edit I don't have any stakes right now so i tied them up to keep them off the ground after that soaking but this is how its looking about now.

pic from maine been great yr so far almost over folks hang on hahaView attachment 3785509

You are golden man just ride it out and stick to what your doing. I would lay off the nitrogen though in a week or two.

they clones grown in swamps top fed heavy all summer roots grow right into swamp getaways seaweed juice really kicked em in never had plants this big an healthy:bigjoint:
Don't you like how the swamps act as a natural hydro setup. I do a few every year in the swamps. If you get a good enough year and the right amount of rain and planted right you almost don't need to water.
