New Grower Second "first time" grow attempt. Continuous until Succesful harvest.

What beautiful pics, gtron! I'd probably squeeze in another feeding before flushing. Looks like you've still got plenty of green fan leaves to carry it for a while. Do you have a scope to check the trichs with?

Thanks AB,
I have a pretty nice loupe 30x with LED that has a nice scope of field,but is just not quite strong enough and a radio shack 60x-100x with bulb that is strong enough, but has an irritatingly small eyepiece and very small scope of field. Between the two of them I am seeing clear to going cloudy. I would put the mix at 70% clear to 30% cloudy.
Nothing I can do but wait really, as I don't want to cut my potency or yield.

But I am seriously chomping at the bit to get my auto grow going.
I am going to do-4 White Jems, 2-WOS Fem AKR, 2-Flash Fem KVS
I am going to start the WJ's first, as I suspect they may be a little smaller than the others plus the WJ's are regular, so I expect to have at least one male in the mix if not more, and I expect them to finish faster.

I can see a difference from your last pics, they are certainly still growing. I agree, I'd give them another feeding or two, especially if that many trics are still clear. She's still got a lot of weight to put on.

More fan leaves yellowing quicker, plenty of them are still green.
The buds are still getting fatter.
The trichs are turning to about 70% cloudy 30% clear.
Getting warmer here so she was ready for feed a day earlier than usual.
Pics are just soso today, I kind of feel like shit.
Going to go see some of the wonders on the beach, maybe that will help!
Enjoy the porn below!

12th week of flower begins tomorrow.
Cutting the fan leaves off as they turn yellow & begin to droop significantly.
Noticed a few "nanners" on a couple of buds. If you look closely at the "LR" pic you can definitely see it.
At this point in the game should I do anything, like pick them off? Or just leave them?
I am hoping to chop this plant around the 30th of this month. Does that seem about right?
The pics are just ok today, the closeups look good, but I am having trouble getting the whole plant in focus.
Oh well Porn is porn, and there is a few shots of my little tranny below.

 

[Muddy]

Looking very good. Yes, just pick those male flowers off. Have you pinched a little sample off of it yet?

 

[Eschatos]

She seems she still has life to give, the 30th might be early. I'd say don't plan, follow her

She is still putting on some weight, buttttttttttttt I have to make room for some autos.
Trichs are still looking about 25% clear 75% cloudy. I have not seen an amber trich yet.
Fan leaves still yellowing from the bottom up.
I noticed some yellow spotting on some of the leaves and since I have seen an occasional gnat or small flying insect in my box, I went ahead and bought some Ladybugs to go on the offensive and make sure there were no bugs causing problems. If you look close you can see one "guarding" the lead bud.
The spotting might be a deficiency, but at this point I am not sure it matters much.
I gave her a gallon of h20 w/ a tablespoon of molasses as a precursor to the flushing I am about to start.
I am open to suggestions about the timing of cutting her, so let me know. I am aiming for between the the next 10-14 days. Does that seem reasonable?
I have pinched some of the smaller low buds, but have smoked them virtually green and am not sure they reflect her potency, which is fair but not asskicking. I am hopeful that there will be significant strengthening over the next week to ten days and that a reall drying and cure will make a real difference in that regard.
My pic taking skills are all over the place, but these are ok.
Enjoy the porn!
