should i cut her down??

[noob4560]

okay so this is auto blackberry kush one of the two i have growing. this one in particular the buds have looked done TO ME for about a week and a half to two weeks (i am no expert) but just this week the trichomes are starting to look on point to me.
i see everyone saying wait for this or that amount of amber but wouldn't mostly milky and just a few spots amber be okay? one thing thats bothering me is for the past week or so she is growing foxtails and new white hairs.
Should i chop her down?????

Still alot of clear ones too...You may be getting a milky look because of the light reflecting through the trichome head...

Are you flushing?

 

[noob4560]

Are you flushing?

i did flush the medium out because i was seeing deficiencies and i believe in doing so caused a lack of phosphorus. im not 100 percent sure but thats what im guessing caused what you are seeing.. but im still planning on waiting the 2 weeks like we talked about before i decide i need to flush or not. well one more week now.
Im still having a hard time checking the trichomes to be honest with you. what do you thank????

 

[Macncheesehaze]

Don’t flush. If it’s deficient, taking more food away will just hurt it more. You still got more time on the trichs and the new white hairs.

 

[noob4560]

okay completely understood! if time is what it needs time will be given! ill post more pics in a week or two. again thank you!!!

You had a Ca deficiency and you're foxtailing now. I can't tell what exactly your trichomes look like because you need more magnification. I'd suggest a Carson handheld microscope because your loupes aren't enough to really see the trichomes.

yes i know. i have a Carson handheld microscope but didnt want to have to take bud off the plant cause its hard to view trichs with it otherwise. i guess it doesnt matter now. ive been smelling a mildew smell every time i walk into the grow room for the last few weeks now. about 20 min ago while checking the buds i noticed these grey spots on some of my buds.. fucking bud rot... so im taking her down

So your right at the beginning of the window imo. I see alot of half cloudy half clear going on with barley any ambering on the buds. I'd suggest letting go a bit longer but keep checking until you see a bit of amber.

My general rule is I won't get to mostly cloudy which is top potency without some ambering of trichomes on the buds.

 

[buzzlegend]

your right on your info. just keep an eye on. Don't really want to see amber
