Yea, I'm pleasantly surprised at the amount of early frost.Looks like they are starting to frost up nicely! Good work mate!
Nice grow brotha you using the roots organic organics lineup? You feeding once a week at wut ratio?7/17 Update-
FYI, there was a typo in my last update, should have said 7/11 update, not 6/11.
Things are going along well so far. Currently day 4 of week 5 flower. Waterings have increased to about every other day, about 1 gal each. Had a bit of leaf tip burn show up this week, but there were 3 waterings in between feeding so I'm thinking I'll be good. Went ahead and fed week 5 feeding today, but pulled back about 1/4 on the amount of nutrients at the advice of @Aqua Man.
Problem with temps and humidity solved (see my last update for more on that).
Other than that, they've pretty much stopped stretching and appear to be putting on weight on the flowers.
Two more feedings, for week 6 and week 7, and then I shouldn't have to worry too much as this grow closes out.View attachment 1147007View attachment 1147006View attachment 1147005View attachment 1147004View attachment 1147003View attachment 1147002View attachment 1147001View attachment 1147000
Thanks Bro, yea and you were one of the folks that helped me a lot in the beginning!Nice grow brotha you using the roots organic organics lineup? You feeding once a week at wut ratio?
They look great! And yeah I see what you mean about the height differences. I feel your pain! About the cal mag… I am actually phasing it out around mid flower, I was under the impression it can cause some sort of lock out for another flowering nutrient. Potassium or somethingUpdate 7/22/21
I am at day 2 of week 6 flower and getting psyched about finishing up my first grow. I watered/fed today using the Roots Organics Terp Tea Bloom, Bloom Booster, and Microbe Charge. I'm giving the max on the package so 1 tbsp each of Bloom and Microbe Charge and 1 tsp Bloom Booster mixed in a gallon of distilled water with cal/mag.
An interesting change I made this last week is I have been using the water from my dehumidifier along with the distilled water I have been making myself. It takes a long time to distill the water and that thing heats up the room it's in so not having to tend to that as much has been good. The dehuey is putting out over a gallon a day and I hate to just throw that out if I can use it instead of the distilled water. I did a lot of searching online to verify that it would be ok and many sites said that dehumidifier water is fine, even many cannabis sites said so including several folks here at the Farm who have used it. I tested for PPM and it was coming in about 12-18 and Ph'ing at about 5.9. So far, everything is fine.
I know a lot can go wrong between now and harvest but I am getting to a place where I can relax a bit and let the plants finish out. I have one more feeding at the beginning of week 7 and then it's just water. I am assuming I will need to keep adding cal/mag for the duration? If anyone has any input on that, please share!
I also noticed that some of the lower fan leaves on one plant are starting to fade to yellow. I know that is going to be a natural development at some point, but I did not expect it to start this soon. I thought it might be a little light on N but did not want to supplement, knowing they would get fed today with the nutrients N number combined at 5.5. If anyone has thoughts on that I appreciate that too!
They look great. I wouldn't change to much. You can try adding a small amount if terp grow to slow the fade a bit but I'm not sure I would.Update 7/22/21

I thought about exactly that AquaMan but decided against it. Last week at feeding I did give 1 tsp Grow, and despite that, it's still yellowing. AND, there is the 5.5 N in the feeding I gave today. My thoughts are that is enough and the fade is most likely very normal. Thanks again Bro.You can try adding a small amount if terp grow to slow the fade a bit but I'm not sure I would.
I think under normal circumstances, you might be right AmokNewb, but since I use distilled water, I have to add that every watering. Just wondering about those final two weeks where they get no nutrients at all outside the water.About the cal mag… I am actually phasing it out around mid flower, I was under the impression it can cause some sort of lock out for another flowering nutrient. Potassium or somethingI can’t remember which off hand.
