Very close to last pic before chop, day or so.
that's a healthy finished plant. nice color. no light stress. assuming you must have plucked off a few faded fans from the bottom along the way.

Cool, nice work! So here is a few picturesWhy thanks @slowandeasy - that’s a nice compliment coming from you .....
Goldie was a really good looking plant - just beautiful...... 7 gallon pot but bottom 3-4” had lava rock, I overdid the drainage and another 4-5” on top for mulch so only about 4.5ish gallons soil for reference.
3+ oz - 96 grams, of Dried rock hard buds, a solid smoke for sure .... Wish @mephisto still sold these seeds

Hey @MrOldBoy I appreciate the kind words. She does have a lot of bud sites! She is starting to flower, and I am very happy with the health of her. Everyday I am amazed at the health of her for the minimal work I have done. I gave her Calmag ONCE because Tad told me to use some tap/RO water mix vs plain RO. But she seems fine with the RO water only, so I'm not going to bother trying Calmag or Tap/RO mixed. I will stay with the RO til the end. I will hit her with URB MICROBES 2 times per week at 1/2 strength. I will however try a plant in the future with Tap water ONLY, to see if it works well. I just want to get a baseline idea of what the plants do without anything but RO water and Microbes 2x per week. . It would be nice to not use RO water, but not a big deal. I have a lot of Calcium in my water. I will do a plant or 2 with a 50/50 mix in the future. I don't see a Calmag deficiency at all with RO. Tap is more pH stable, but if I can rock 3 plants this far with RO water then I am sure it is no big deal either way. Only way to find out is to try on a new plant from the beginning.Look at all those bud sites - going to be a nice producer @slowandeasy - sweet gal you have there.
Thanks @grower789 - a few leaves could of been picked but I like to leave them on if they are not in the way.
Hey MOB, I have an RO filter at my house and use it for my plants. I like the idea of using tap water or a mix, but Like you said I need to let it sit before using. I will try it on some future plants. But the RO water is working fine, I don't want to mess with these 3 plants. I have to transplant a few plants this week. I actually will go start 2 seeds soaking and they will be my first experimental plants. I will use 100% tap water on them, from day 1. So we can see it works. I can always do a 50/50 mix, but that is kind of a pain in the ass. I would prefer all or nothing. I will wait a week and then start 2 more and will do RO water only til Preflowering and then use Medi-one organic liquid nutes on them 2x per week to see what happens. Once I have a few plants for a Baseline, I Have to experiment to see what is best.@slowandeasy ...... Solid plans just be sure to let tap water sit - they say 24 hours but when I use I let it sit 36 hours or more if possible ......
I also put a three stage filter in my house for city water which I think helps stabilize / naturalize ..... Organic Soils will themselves help correct any issues unless water is real foul .....
WC has turned the corner and now the fun starts ..... Look for those buds to grow over the next couple weeks and while the pics have been good I think the board will demand the iPhone when we get to the serious Bud Porn Pics
WC sure is a mighty fine looking gal - Keep her between the lines!
Peace,
MOB
What I’m talking is a whole house 3 stage filter ...... even your RO water filter system would be pre-filtered by the whole house system ..... You would still have RO water but the entire city water would have a three stage filter - our city water is improved by the filters and it removes the chlorine as well but I still let mine sit .....
Here’s system our house has and if I was doing hydro I would put an RO in as well but no hydro, although I am considering a RO for kitchen for our use .....
Amazon product
also don’t forget to ask your water department for a test report per @Organic Sinse but honestly your plants will let you know and Organics are more forgiving than hydro ......
With WC steady the course, she looks even more beautiful every picture!
