Pissed at my self, was such a nice looking plant

Don't beat yourself up, I got a new light about 1/2 way thru my first grow and promptly burnt the hell outta my nice Gelato. Chalk it up to being a learning experience.

I did notice tho that all the signs were there of your problem now are in your pics from the 30th but being new you did not see what was happening. Have a look back at em now that you know whats up. One thing the folks here have taught me is watch the plants closely, they will let you know. So very true.

Yep I see the taco shelling started around then according to the pic, good observation on your part.
It is certainly a lesson learned. Did your gelato bounce back?

Every lil bit of knowledge helps, ty.

The Gelato was an Auto so it forged on , it was rough looking but I got just over 2oz so was happy with that. Smoke could have been better of course but I got through that 1st grow.

For what its worth, being my first grow I was trying to figure out what was wrong and believed the problem to be a cal/mag issue so I was treating for that all the while burning her a bit crispy. Thank goodness they are a hearty ole weed :)

[Oldmanbud50]

[Oldmanbud50]

U still have a few weeks m8 by the look of your pics. A lot of filling and stacking still to go. But nice plants

Hang in there, she's comin in her own time as they do. I am a very impatient person most times and not a fan of waiting very long for anything, however that said, I will NOT rush a weed plant. I don't want to deal with smoking a bunch of short 1/2hr buzz slop for a month or two :) You will be rewarded soon :)

 

[Tango02]

Thanks guys for the replies, I was thinking a little while longer but just wasn’t sure.

Just an FYI for anyone out there reading this....this is what a fan will do to your plants when on for too long and too high and too close. Don’t learn the lesson the hard way like I did.

These buds smell and look awesome but the sugar leaves and fan leaves took a bashing

 

[Tango02]

Don’t look the greatest but they sure do smell awesome

How are you liking the tiger bloom? I have the trio and just introducing it in very small doses to my ladies. Have seen people mention and use it but also heard people talk bad about it. From the looks of your pictures it looks like your ladies are loving it though.

They are doing well with it, I started it at 1/4 strength and worked my way up to full strength over the course of 3 weeks.
