Hi guys...I was wondering if i should cutoff the dead curling edges of fan leaves that had calcium deficiency near bud sites or should I leave them there? Im already giving it cal-mag dolomite lime n epsom salt so its already recovering from that..I don't wanna stress the plant but I also don't want any fungus to appear..What should I do? 20170408_142555.jpg 20170408_142402.jpg 20170408_142318.jpg 20170408_142236.jpg

Greetings, as long as rH is under control shouldn't be an issue. The entire leaf is gonna fall off anyway most likely. But looking at the images it's nothing to worry about.

Fyi plant having N def in late flower is a good thing, don't fight the fade so much. ;-)

Your plants look like to be near finishing stages, from the pics i guess you're in week 6ish? Usually around week 6/7+ leaves do that naturally, a lot of newer growers take it as N def and feed the piss out of them and does nothing but waste nutes and slow down the finish. They look great though.

Thanks..Yeah I just started the 7th wk and I didn't see this alert until now or I wouldn't have gave it anymore nutes but today will be the last day I give it any cause I plan on harvesting it on the 22nd if it's ready by then but it looks close to being done so it should be..Should I use the final flush I got and water or just water? Here's some pics of the plant from today..20170411_183225.jpg 20170411_183211.jpg 20170411_183150.jpg 20170411_183211.jpg 20170411_183150.jpg

You're plants looks great man. Also my .02 here, take it as you wish. Some people will argue this... (this is a bad topic on here lol) But you don't need to flush man. Just don't feed them at all.Plain water. Just let the plant do it's thing naturally. Great job.

Just remember drying and curing is just as important as growing it. Best of luck, can't wait to see what she yields.

I know that's why I've been studying up on both of them heavily..Im a first time grower so it's hard for me to try n guess the amount but from my view I see at least a half pound unless you lose bud during harvest or something, but im not a pro..lol20170411_183234.jpg ..Can you take a rough estimated guess?

Is it pretty dense? And during the drying process you lose about 80% of your weight. From what i see in the picture i would say a couple ounces. It looks like a lot more on the plant then it does dry. Like by a lot lol. But yea 2 ounces i would say, my opinion.

Haha right on man, Yeah it's hard to tell from pics alone. Any amount for a first time is successful. Nothing beats smoking your OWN GROWN. You know everything you did to it.
