Gelato Auto with leaf issue

[ComfortablyNumb]

Sorry guys I'm a hot pepper farmer turned 420.. A little different techniques with yields lol

Tomatoes, wild lettuce, echinaciea, and some other medical herbs. No hot peppers here.

Have to remember what you are seeing is probably a week or 2 old and may already be corrected also.

If you think back did you flush in the last 2 weeks?

Living soil so no haven’t flushed...no need.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Lol yeah I don't really like hot peppers but they are so cool looking and have such vibrant reds and oranges. And it's almost Impossible to wrap your head around how hott some of these maruga scorpions, buhkjaloke chilies, 7 pot chilies and Tasmanian habaneros are lol

Maybe just a lack of calcium then but thinking back this close tobharvest I'd ride it out. It's not going to make a difference and probably have a negative impact. I like to cut the calcium out after swelling anyhow.

Growing buds at this point not leaves.

My grandfather used to pluck squash christmas pepper and pop it in his mouth and chew it up. I would break a sweat from it 10 yards away.

How long till you actually take it down? If it's more than 2 days, feed it very lightly. Otherwise, whack that buggah.

I’m pretty sure it was the light was a little much for that plant. The others, different strains, are of same height but tolerate it. Anyway it’s a non issue now.

I could probably cut it and a couple others down now. Maybe tomorrow if I got the time to sit down and trim & hang.

Yeah these would make those taste like milk lol jk but in all seriousness these are some maruga scorpions, buhkjalokes, Habs and ghosts my old man I I have grown over years. Stupid hot like 2 million scovel units lol. My dad tricked me into eating a whole Tasmanian habanero one time and I honestly think I died and went to hell and then God brought me back lmao horrible experience but some people love it

The smashed red ones are what he called Christmas pepper.

Tell me about it. That old man was mental. His mind burned out years before from too many of those.

 

[freezeland2]

What do you mean harvest just top buds?!!

This is why two harvests. All this would probably have gone to scrap if I chopped the plant when the tops finished. Probably an ounce or two of harvestable bud now.

Sweet! Good to know

 

[ComfortablyNumb]

When you harvest, take the large buds on top because they are finished, but the ones below them still need a day or 6 to finish out. Then you harvest them.

There is probably more in there to finish as they are pretty bushy. Who knows....maybe a third harvest. I’m going to start whacking buds off those again soon as I got the time to take care of the harvest afterwards. They ain’t going anywhere, lol.

I get exactly what your saying but all my flowering plants get great light penetration . I will remove fan leaves here and there to open up light windows. It's working for now but i have about 48 days give or take left so that is alot of growth left. Lol . My sweat helmet is a manifold I actually did some light defoliating today .

 

[Aqua Man]

Yeah thats why indoors scrogging, training and pruning are important.

I lollipop and strip the offshoots. Which gives me nothing nut good mid to large buds and next to no larf.

They key is a very even canopy and well pruned plants if you want to have buds ready at the same time.

Either way works well.

Lots of different ways to get to the end goal. Max yield.....
