New Grower First grow, humbolt caramel cream (8-3-22)

[Cannaficionado]

So 39 more days on average to go. Feeling a lot better than yesterday. Snapped some new pics and plant is looking good in my opinion. Definitely having some kind of issues now the newer fan leaves around the buds are yellowing on the tips but otherwise its looking phenomenal.

1 branch in particular is looking extra good. Thats the one at the very front bottom super green leaves almost standing straight up at the top. All the others have some yellowing or faded green to them. Buds are a bit yellowish green too. Thinking of feeding again today because the soil is almost dry but I fed 2 times this week already. I might just water and call it for today

This is the good looking one up close nice lush even green throughout and all the way down to the lowest leaves I left.

Got home today to notice a lot of my fan leaves that came in after the flip to 12/12 are starting to get that yellowing fade around the edges. Im starting to think maybe too much food.
Pot was dry so I watered heavily with plain water, amd a half dose of sledgehammer to add some yucca to the soil again, the prewater didnt wanna sink in again. Total she got 1.5 gal and I topped her off with .25 with a full boomerang feed just to have the n-p-k and some secondary nutes incase I flushed out too much.

This is that yellowing I mentioned, yesterday it looked a lot better. Its also possible she getting a touch too much light because all the lower branches that never caught up with the rest of the canopy are still looking pretty good. Leaving the light tho, its been where its at as for as dimming since the 2nd week of flowering. If anything I'll raise it 4" and see if that helps.
Shes getting about 950ppfd dead center and about 800-850 around the edges of the canopy according to the phone app. Might be reading low though with the door slightly open.

I think almost a month in its gonna be some pretty good smoke. Felt a lot of the colas and they are pretty firm, sticky as all hell already too. Im just hoping she fattens up and I get some weight. Either way though best hobby, hands down

This will probably be a 2 part update today. Just finished my chores I wanted to do today so I checked out the tent right away in case I wanted/needed to do anything and I did.
Did a little more defoliation on the lower half of the plant. Raised the light about 5" to give a little more even distribution of light now the whole canopy is averaging about 875ppfd and 925 in the center. Not so drastic of a drop off on the way out from the center anymore.

Pretty much dropped everything under the net. Giving her a little more water before I close everything back up.

Got home from work, and decided to see if the tent needed anything before I take some melatonin and pass out.

Sure enough, started suckn down water again. Pot was completely bone dry when I got home. Hit her with a .3 gal prewater, let that soak in for an hour and topped it off with about .75 gal with a full feed. Ill snap some pics and upload later. Its nap time.

So not much to update today plants doing ok. Fan leaves are really starting to yellow but it is what it is. Took some pics today. Temps outdoors are like insanely high, its been in the high 60s to low 70s for a week which has brought up the humidity. That concerns me a bit. 63% at like 2pm today but it hasnt gone much higher.

Well as many of you will know, Im livid. First plant hermied after all that work I put into it. I guess I got more caramel cream seeds coming my way would this be considered an f3 now if the original plant was an f2 or am I understanding that wrong
