Regardless though you fucking did it man. And you grew it. And you will love it. I know I did.
I was amazed. And after 1 year of doing it the light is better, the buds get fatter and they are less stressed out because I know what to do and how to control the environment.
I love indoor so much more than outdoor but I only need 1 oz a month to 2 max. I hit 10 oz in 4 months and that is pretty damned sweet. :D. I would guess my grow will hit or marginally exceed it on 3 plants and I am super happy about it. My house smells like fruity pebbles with a faint smell of ganja that makes me smile.

Day 70... they were advertised as a 75 day from seed strain. I'll go over by a little but probably not to much. They have really slowed down slotvas far as drinking water goes.

They looking nice! I forget your method but the idea for just water the last week or two is insane. Your plants always use building blocks. Maybe it's cause what they're are feeding they're not sure what's actually in it so they don't wanna over feed or something? I mean the whole idea is crazy, if what you're feeding is the cause of problems and your solution is to flush it out... does that not seem counterintuitive? You're literally providing the cause and solution to your problems.

By thinking use water only in the last two weeks one would think plants in nature would uproot and walk over to a lake of RO water to finish in. Or does this not make since? Please share, I could easily learn just as anyone.

What's slotvas? I wouldn't go by advertised time and trust me a lot of them are pretty freaking close to advertised time, but use trichs. Environment will never be the same.
But you're on the right track, your fan leaves tell me that.
Cheers

Haha.. I have no idea what slotvas is.. apparently it is a horrible rendition of auto correct at its finest. Now just to be clear, these have rarely been fed any outside nutrients at all. Week 4 & 5 they got 2 feedings @ 1/2 the recommended amount of the nectar of the gods.. they also received 2 foliar feedings before flower.. they received cal/mag every 3rd watering for the last 2 weeks. That's why I said from here on out I'd more than likely just use water. I was really wanting to see what would happen without a ton of me messing with them.. I will say have been very consistent as far as keeping a eye on the PH at watering time. I try & keep
It between 6.5 & 6.8

Ha word!

I looked at your media, it seems like you're doing a soil/soilless hybrid? One tip is mix your soils, don't layer them. Your mixing nutes and feeding them correct? Imo I'd get your ph closer to 6.3

The reason I layered was this. I had 3/4 of Ocean forrest on the bottom. The top 1/4th was a walmart version promix. I figyr d get the seedling started in the light mix & once they develop, they can hit the betor soil. Yes when I do feed th nutes, I mix them correctly & adjust ph to the recommended level per the manufacturer

So as I was as I was watering my ladies I noticed I had a broken branch, so I decided to go ahead & cut it loose & let it dry & cure a little so I can see how she's gonna taste. So my plan is to give her a burn Saturday & see what I'm working with. It's looking good so far.

Here's mine at about 40 days, only took a pic of the frost on the top, but she's staking extremely tight, she's definitely a late packer, hasn't bulked up like my Og Kush has, and my sour kosher at 4 weeks is bigger than the blueberry, time will tell!

She's a shorty man! She took dominance though yet she has a stout structure, she's obviously packing late cuz I'm seeing explosive growth and stacking on the buds now. Also, I give her fresh nutes midweek of week 5 and 6 and go with just bloom, pk 13/14 and koolbloom for a pk boost. She's reacting nicely and her hues are shades of blue all the way up the stalk.
