also have ww i read that right before flowering only 8 hours of light for 2 weeks prior to flowering is this a common method or anyone have any experience with it?
i have always gone 12/12 from the off. And this has worked fine for me so will stick with it.

thanks dude. they look healthy, although i noticed some discoloration on the lower leaves fortunately on a small scale. those plants have been flowering for 15 days now. that means 6 weeks to go i guess
Just in the last week I have had a few of the lowest fan leaves turn yellow and I have pinched them off. If the rest of the plants were not so healthy I might be concerned. I figure its just part of the normal life cycle of a leaf and the oldest are at the bottom. I watch the tips of the new leaves to make sure there is no nute burn and I feed mine pretty aggressivly, but always give them just water in between feedings to flush.

6 weeks is about my guess for my harvest too. I am very impatient now and wanting to snip off a small sample to try. I know better & I will hold out much closer to the end before i allow myself a small sample.

Good Growing!:joint:

i think my discoloration is sth else. first off its not yellow its rather whiteish spots, very small ones. as i noticed same spots on one of my smaller plants too my guess is the weather. its been quite hot and humid recently and maybe that caused the staining. i was thinking nutes but dismissed it as i had not fed the smaller guys yet. still nth to worry about:hump:. happy growing too, raul!

update on the grow..its 19th day of flowering..i watered my 2 plants this morning. last time i did it was 8 days ago..is it me or they really dont like much water. reading other threads i get the impression that people water their plants more frequently..uploaded some pics, hope you like them..crystals start to appear, when rubbed i can smell fantastic, resiny, piney odor..very appealing..any feedback more than appreciated!

gracias, im getting scared how they gonna look in 2 weeks..yes, using just tap water. feeded them only once so far a week ago using biobizz bloom 3ml per litre. so next week ill increase the dose to ca. 5ml. thinking of getting blackstrap molasses but no clue where to get them from in uk..

i still got those 3 plants i grow along my 2 ww. they are 3 weeks old tommorow. 2 mazar and 1 ww (the tallest in the black pot). the shortest one has been topped. originally i was planning to put them to flower a week ago but it just didnt feel right. so im gonna to the same thing as before and do it after 4 weeks of veg. my guess at this moment is that the one in the brown pot (maybe its not brown, i have a slight prob wiz colors:mrgreen:) is male. time will tell..

thanks cali. yeah i think its common sense when it comes to watering plus i would rather underwater them than the other way round. just cut off the lowest budding branches of the untopped plant. heard it helps fattening the upper buds. didnt touch the second one. ill see the difference at harvest time. is your cheese and strawberry still curing?
