Pistils starting to turn is most likely normal at this point. It should start fattening up real soon.

@Goodshit97 had another question, do you defoliate right before harvest or when you actually harvest? if that makes sense

I defoliate day 21 of flower and again around day 50, usually only a couple leaves the second time around. And then at harvest i take off all the fan leaves only. Then hang dry for 10-15 days.

21 days after stretch or including? Some don’t count from the day you flip to 12/12.

Frig I hate this lag. How can you be part of a conversation when 30 minutes of replies goes by before your post is accepted.

Morning everyone,

looks fine..
you may have watered a day early, no biggie..
you should notice more time in between waterings as they slow down towards the end..

okay cool, so this is about the time where they start feeding slowly?

give or take around this time depends on strain etc.. just something you should notice/watch for..
i sometimes at this time will also raise my lights 5 inches or so.. not advice for you, just saying..

Just watch the heat up there. Anything on top of your tent you might want to clear off if it’s getting hot. Maybe have a fan blow around the top area inside.

Mines at the highest I’ve had it right now. About 2”/3” from the roof. Had to make sure nothing would burn or melt.

Still, nice problem to have isn’t it?
You’ve come a long way in just a short time!
