So I guess today is like day 51 and we have trichs starting! Atleast I think? I dunno but they are looking better by the day

 

[elsamurai]

looks good to me now watch them get far and hungry..watch out for any cal/mag .

 

[BRICH999]

Thanks everyone ive kept ontop of the calmag and will keep an eye out for it. Things are getting really thick toward the middle and I was reading about trimming autos. Some say dont do it, and some say to wait till flower to be sure the lower branches wont grow to the canopy. Whats everyones thoughts on snipping a few lower branches? So far ive only removed maybe a dozen leaves total and most were because of issues (bad aim watering)

And if I do remove some lower branches is there anything I can do with it? Theres a few very underdeveloped ones I can think of but still have a few white hairs etc, can I cook with these?

 

[elsamurai]

I've trimed some of the low hanging branch's with no ill effect's. in fact it seemed to stimulate the upper growth. but tread lightly. don't know about cooking but I did dry and smoked any and all bit's that looked like a bud

Ive raised the light a bit more to get more coverage, think 4 plants at once is way too many for my area right now. Got my jewelers loop today took some bootleg macro shots with my cell phone.



Also wondering whats causing these spots? Not many of them, and only on the oldest fan leaves of one plant. Look rust colored.

Couple days past 2 months old and looking pretty good i think. All are frosting up nicely, the shortest one was first to show trichs has the most trichs, but almost no pistils have changed. Although always being the first, im reconsidering chopping this one first. I want to cut them down at different stages, should i start a 2 week flush on one now? Then plants will come down approx a week apart from 75-100 days is my plan:dunno:



Also if anyone has any tips, im all ears! I cut all the fan leaves off the main stem of one plant because i thought the growth was too thick. Not sure if this was smart or not. Other than that ive just been removing a couple lower leaves that turned yellowish

 

[elsamurai]

look's good. are you feeding flower nute's? I've bumped mine up till I got a little burn on the tip's then back off a little. seems to have helped the bud's swell up and fat bud's are a good thing

 

[BRICH999]

Ya ive been trying to do that and upping every feeding but no burn at all. Tonight i fed 10ml of add.27, A and B per gallon and gave them 3g combined which was some runoff. Still giving them calmag and silica also
