How long does the community think? Gelato

[Iwishiknew]

Hi everyone.
How long do people think this has left?
First time for me I’m about 5weeks into flower.
I can see parts starting to brown and curl nearer to the light.
I’m thinking the same again 4/5 weeks, I’m not an impatient person I just don’t want to start reducing nutrients and flushing to early all help/advice is welcome
Plant to the right was the first cutting I took. I didn’t veg it any where near as long and put it in to flower about a week ago to early?
More interested in turn around time rather than high yield

Thanks anyone

Best thing you can do is get a calendar and write everything you do on it. Looks like mid flower. Should be feeding the heaviest right now and tapering down in the next couple weeks. Looks like 4-5 weeks left.

A solid month in my opinion. Great structure/canopy! Be patient and enjoy the ride!

Thanks people I’m in the ball park then I shall continue.
Keep getting huge over night drops in ph any thoughts ?

I'm not a hydro grower but I found this online...

If the pH of your hydroponic solution continues to drop, there are a few likely causes.

The nutrient solution is either too strong, or the hydroponic system needs maintenance/cleaning.

Contaminated hydroponic systems are the most common cause of unstable low-end pH levels

I guess 5 weeks or more. As to the PH drop, I also started experiencing this happen in the last month. I use a product called "Reef Kalkwasser". Usually 1 teaspoon mixed with a gallon of R.O. water will bring it back up one point and keep it there. I change my water out every 2 weeks, but some do it weekly. At 50 gallons of water per swap that is my happy middle ground. New grower, so might be way more experienced guys on here to help you. Just my $0.02.

I’ve read a few reports of this but seems no real answer.
Same 2 weekly full change with top ups to keep ec and ph in check but she looks healthy just don’t want to chop too soon

I'd say you still have a minimum of a month left on those

Thanks to all your replies I’m sure i will be back for the harvest

This is the bit now I’m a seasoned smoker but I actually don’t know which part is the flower I’ve only ever seen it ready to pipe up.
Pistils flowers trichomes ??
I do realise this might be an important factor
Not like a big fat chilli
Could someone point me to a detailed pic/website for a detailed explanation of it’s structure please
I’m loving this new hobby sick of uk prices and shit weed
