They don't need any change for a few weeks probably. You still have a lot of stacking left, and after you stack then you have the swell and final bulk. Then your hairs will darken and start pulling in. That's about the time you'll back off ppm and flush will be soon after that. I don't watch my trics as much as just watch the plant. I used to every plant every grow damn near daily but after a while you just see that ripe look. But I still watch for my milky/amber. But wisher can def explain things better than me.

Well I backed off to 850 because they drink so fast the ppm was just climbing to ranges i dont feel comfortable with.

you did the right thing and you are doing fine.....
@Midwestjay you explained it perfectly
your plants def have more stacking to do
as for the hairs and trichs
differ plants do differ things
the plant I run now ....her hairs will die back and fold in about 3-4 weeks before she is ready....some plants that I have run the pistils stay while almost till the end.....but yes.....growing long enough you just know when she is ripe.....just like a fruit
as for backing off.....
for me.....when she starts to have pistils folding back I drop to 3/4 strength for about a week then 50% for a week then 1/4 strength....as she yellows and turns fall colors and some of her large fans will drop as she dies......I usually flush the last 2 days after I have checked trichs and they show no clear and the amount of amber I want....( more amber for heavy and less for more head effects) but I say you are about 2-3 weeks before you even start that......as she looks to be about a 10 week strain

Right on I will keep you up to date with pics and my nutes and measurements in the res. that away you can coin me in on the next phase and when to begin. In the meanwhile I will keep letting these ladies enjoy what we've been doing so far.

Bro you are so smart coming here for your first grow. 5 years ago I was a puss about joining. You've got more knowledge from wish and some from me than I had 3 years into growing lmfao

hey man I really appreciate the compliment
you know whn I started back in the 90's I felt lucky to have learned from someone who knew what he was doing.....as I stuck with him and he connected with others with differ skillz I was able to gain even more knowledge as he was pure organic where as some of the other dudes had warehouses of hydro.....everyone ran differ methods......
I feel like we as cannabis growers have been shoved so far into the shadows that it is beyond repressive
if you wanted to learn how to grow grapes....You can now enroll in a vitners class and learn everything you want to know about growing grapes and setting up a vineyard.....you can usually go down to your local nursery and find classes on gardening.....even specifics like mixing your own soils, square ft gardening, crop specific, back yard orcharding.....hell even rose maintenance.......I feel that platforms such as the Farm and others are an amazing tool for people like us since we have no other outlets.....and I want to share as much knowledge to as many people as possible.....the more growers that are up to speed so to speak.....the stronger our community will become....and if everyone that one of us reaches......reaches someone else with knowledge passed down....we will eventually overflow the masses and flip the stigma upside down.....which is my ultimate goal .......Passive activism......through knowledge gained wisdom with multiple awakenings leading to a higher state of consciousness......

Sorry I've been offline a few days. I have a new addition to my family. My first baby girl was born. I'm now home and nestled back in with my family. The other ladies are looking good still and made sure to check and monitor them from time to time while I was becoming a daddy again. Lucky for me there isn't much to do with this system it's basically on cruise control. Just top off every couple days to keep my ppm at the 900 range and not much over. The pH handles itself maybe adjust it once or twice before res changes. I will get some pictures updated for you folks. So yay for me team no sleep! New daddy no hickups at the hospital that went well and the garden is still maintaining. Thank you for tuning in and all your support my friends.

Thanks bro

I need to get in there and clean up some leaves but here are some quick pics. You can see the nute burn too where my ppm climbed too high before I topped it off.

 

[Midwestjay]

Hell yea brother. Them is some donkey d's

 

[wasfromks]

Hell yea brother. Them is some donkey d's

Lol I can't get all of them in the pics, but there is a stupid amount of those size tops in there.

 

[Midwestjay]

You should be proud homie. I see leaves fading. Which means they are using up the access nutes. Idk if it's early for that or not. You'd have to ask @Wisher619

 

[wasfromks]

Let's see what he replies back with.

They look super good tho bro. You should be proud. I'll never forget my first grow. It was a success like this. And I was hooked. But it was 6 rdwc buckets under a 600w in a 4x4. But still. It's the best feeling ever. I don't have kids but it's the next best thing lol
