So I vacuumed the whole grow space, whipped everything down and kind of revamped the space. This is how she is currently looking. I raised my CFL lights some, I’m hoping that’s the burning on the leaves because it’s mostly the top ones that are really frying and curling upwards. Haven’t come across any new spider mites but obviously they are tiny and could be anywhere haha. Just trying to keep a continual eye out there. Will probably retweet (and hopefully final treatment) tomorrow right before lights out. Milton was right about the buds getting too heavy for the stems so I had to tie quite a few today that were starting to fall. But the buds are smelling a lot more now and are pretty sticky already. 6 weeks in flower as of yesterday. Going to see how good she is looking by 8 weeks and determine if I should keep her in flower longer or if she’s ready to cut.View attachment 1034921View attachment 1034922View attachment 1034923View attachment 1034924View attachment 1034925

What does she smell like? Btw I'm guessing you have 3-4 weeks left.

She’s about 7 weeks in flower now. Her hairs are turning orange quickly and the smell is very present. I’m watering her with plain ph’d water from now until harvest. I would think I would have at least 2 weeks left till harvest but the amount of orange hairs now is making wonder if I’m closer than that View attachment 1036689View attachment 1036690View attachment 1036691View attachment 1036692

She's still pushing plenty of white pistils though. That's the better indicator imo. Looks great! Bugs?

Another new grower here, our plants are on about the same timeline as my buds first appeared on Aug 22nd also. I've been following the last few days and just loving your results. I've had so many of your struggles happen to me also. My bug infestation was tiny catterpillars. I was sitting at my desk one night wondering why moths kept fluttering around my head every time I lit one, til I went to the grow room to discover they had been munching away at her leaves overnight and hatching out. I combed my girls for bugs by hand twice a day for two weeks. I lost four small plants. I was sure I was going to have to start over. That was during veg tho! You kept your cool with bugs during flowering. I see a few ladybugs on my outdoor plants today and I'm real happy for their help. No webs or holes. Always liked ladybugs, now I know why. Anyway, just chiming in with encouragement.

Hey thank you so much! And that’s awesome that we are around the same timeline with our plants. Thank you for the encouraging words about my issues and pushing through, I appreciate that and glad you were able to do the same! Your plants still doing well now?

Well just after I wrote that to you I found aphids eating one of my stunted plants that had survived the moths. Poor thing.. but outside she went. It rained all night and now there's a huge windstorm, but she has to stay out because I have no place to put her while she recovers from this. I have plenty of ladybugs outdoors that will fix her up when the sun comes out tomorrow. I think its my only choice with her, even if I try and treat her she can't come back inside until I am sure. I don't see any little sesame seeds on my other plants so good so far. The outdoor plants are thriving, the indoor girls are all survivors of my noobness. Good luck in the weeks ahead.View attachment 1037929

FWIW, I had the scorched leaf problem you described earlier and I was eventually able to determine that the problem was the cheap grow light I was using in that tent. I had taken some bad advice and bought a light at costco that turned out to be a waste of money as all my plants stretched desperately to reach it and then eventually got that burned look because they weren't getting the light they needed. They weren't burning on the light, they were "burning" for the lack of it. It all stopped once I took them outdoors. I don't have any idea if your problem is similar, but I thought I would mention it. I'm buying better lights as I can afford them.

So my aphid gal survived her two nights outdoors in the 8c stormy weather. She actually looks much better. I've killed every bug I can see by going over her top and bottom. I found two or three aphids on two other plants so everybody is out doors for the day. Lots of ladybugs so I'm optimistic.

Trust me, you want to wait for the final plumping up. She's taking her time but she looks good. Wish I could understand why her tips are burnt but that gets trimmed anyway.
