PH problems, how much more time?

Hi All,

I am nearing the end of my first grow I have one plant with 7 23w clfs, 2700ks, a couple fans, humidity is around 40-50 (sometimes lower) during day and 70-80 at night. temps stay below 28-29C all times down to 20 at night. Never really spent alot on on dirt or nuts, using 15-30-15 plantprod ferts and 0-0-0 soil both from walmart.

I switched to 12-12 on Jan 3rd and saw hairs on Jan 17th, I never had a PH meter and used the color indicators but somewhere in all the weed i had myself convinced that ph had at most 6.0 so for awhile there I had a extremely low ph and i was having problems with delayed bud formation but once i upped the pH (now putting water around 8.0 in and run-off is 6.4) the bud's starting forming and it is looking good. not sure how long the pH was off but anywhere from 2-4 weeks.

So now I am going on the 10th week of flowering(from first seeing white hairs) I started giving her straight water last week after it started to thicken up and bend, but now i am looking at it and moving aside some of the sugarleaves (which seemed to have gotten massed produced with the pH debacle) and noticing that some parts of the plant is pretty dense but then other parts are not.(namely the tops of the main colas) I just wanted to get a second opinion on where there at and if I should be cropping within the week or go back to nutes for a bit and then flush out a week from now.?!

Thanks
Reggie

i agree..... there are still new pistils forming, and the leaves are just beginning to yellow...
keep flushing! some carbs are ok right now too!

i agree with monkeybones, it looks a little over fertilized too, probably to much nitrogen, don't need that much during flowering. i would flush it to get the excess ferts out. it will help it alot, might even dense up for ya, good luck

You dont need any more ferts atm.. you can probably go fert free from now on. Give suger if you want, or just water. she looks good.

Hey Guys thanks for the reply, puts me at ease that I am not over doing it! first time and i know it won't be perfect but may as well get it as good as I can.

When you say 'carbs' are you refering to sugar like the other post above?
