During veg, my plant never needed anything over 500ppm and I have her sitting right now in flower at about 800. I’ll see how she is liking it once her lights come on.

Here’s a pic of her Day 1 of flower. PPM’s 860- P.H 6.0 going to see how she does in this range and see what happens. Is the lighter green in the middle normal when transitioning to flower?

Thank you, I’m hoping! This is so my first grow ever, so if I can get 4 ounces I’ll be stoked! Not sure what will come out of her but we’ll see

DAY 5 of Flower: Sorry for the non natural light photo. Took these before bed. I’ll take natural light tomorrow.

Ppm’s about 1100 with sink water having 150ppm of its own. PH 5.8. Shes liking where the nutes are now. No signs of mute burn. She’s Drinking about a gallon of water every 2 days.

When I start to see some white pistols I’ll swap her over to more bloom nutes, then I really get to see her go.

She’s at about 1 week of flower. How long does it take before you start to see white hairs showing up? She’s has gotten much taller for sure.

She’s day 9 of flower. Seeing some white pistols but not a lot. I would of thought there would of been more. P.H is 5.8-6.0 Ppm’s are at 1100-1300. I haven’t switched her to more Bloom nutes, waiting to see if more pistols show. Let me know what you guys think and if you guys see anything off.

She’ll be 2 weeks of flower come Sunday.
Her PPM’s are at 1300-1400 with sink water having 150ppm of its own. P.h I’m keeping at about 5.5-6.2. Letting her creep to the 6.2

Here’s a few pics of her, with a Video at the end.

Wondering if it’s to late to trim some of those bigger fan leaves?

If your gonna trim I would wait until after 3rd week of flower. Then there should be no issue with removing a few leaves. To me it looks like you have room for adequate airflow and I wouldn't worry to much at this point but again depending what they look like after stretch you may wanna pull some

Ok awesome. Ya I’ll wait till end of week 3 to trim a few of the monster leaves. I’m just nervous that there is not enough light getting down deeper unto the bigger branches. I am LST’ing so maybe I’m just over thinking.

in general, you can trim back day 15 to 21......
But, you just need to watch the plant. If the plant is explosive I will trim early no worries(this grow i trimmed at day 15), usually I strip back at day 19ish. Just don't trim back after the plant begins to pistol out aggressively.
Also just don't continually trim through flower from what I have been told, all at once dont continually stress the plant ......idk...
Half the nonsense I have been told was from old hippies who could not SPEAL photosynthesis. They grew some good buds ........and about 50% larf
They also used an almanac to plant , thought the man on the moon was real.
Long and short its your plant have fun, and just enjoy the ride!

Midway of week 3. She’s looking great IMO. PPM’s 1300ish and P.H I set to 5.5-5.6 and let her coast up to about 6.2 before I drop her again.

Temps get to about 81 and humidity gets to 60% but never over. It’s been really hot these last couple weeks here in the North East but today was a nice cool day.

Let me know if you guys see anything that’s off about her. Sorry for the non natural light, was just lazy.

Some natural light photos and also an update.

My water level goes down as the P.H rises, but the PPM’s are also rising. Not by much, but still rising. I just did a res change and lowered the PPM’s down hoping she takes in more. But so far she still looks great so not really sure if I should be worried. If I notice they rise too much I just lower it with some P.Hed water.

Almost at the end of week 4 figured I’d share some pics. P.H 5.5 rising to 6.3 then dropping her back down. PPM’s were at 1300 but I lowered her down to 900.

I noticed she kept rising In PPM’s so figured I’d lower them so she can take in more. She’s drinking a good amount of water.

Tent humidity is 70% which I Am
Not happy about. Leaving the A.C on tonight in that room to help with that.

Here’s a few of natural light photos. She’s at the end of week 4. I Just changed her res to a fresh mix. Im
Thinking she has at least another 3-4 weeks to go if not 5 to be fully done.

Just finished end of week 5. Did a res change. Here are some pics and also pics of the trichomes. Got a new microscope I was trying out.

So some of the trichomes are turning amber already but she just finished end of week 5. The site I bought seeds off of (blue fire) said 70-75 days of flower time for indoors which equals to 10 weeks almost. I feel 10 weeks is a long time.

I feel like she’s not that thick of bud either Maybe it’s still early but lmk guys.

Sorry if trichomes pic are blurry. It’s hard to snap a pic and hold it close to the bud.

The amber trichs are from heat or light degradation. Just so you are aware.
