Agent's first Grow WW

The prob i got is i work all day when my plants are in the dark time so its hard to get a pic without the lights on. Ive taken them out of their room and bought them in the kitchen to give a better pic quality.......... i hope. As you can see the lower buds are progressing with more amber pistils than the top colas. The prob is now what to do- the plants are starting to suffer, however the main colas keep getting bigger and bigger with still a load of white pistils. As you can see from the leaves they are getting very deficient in whatever as on one plant only the top cola leaves have green hue in their leaves still whereas its brown leaves ahoy thereafter. The other plant isn't so bad but is starting to get yellow tips and blotches with some leaves rolling upwards like a canoe shape- hmmm. So do i start flushing in fear of my one plant is slowly dying or do i let it go another week before flush i was hoping to only leave this until next Friday max-that will take them to 13 weks since switch (12 weeks from start of factual flowers starting. What do ya think guys? BTW i've given them epsom salts also, feeding them 6mls bloom, 4 mls molasses and added these time release nutrients i found for fruiting that have added potassium and mag but i cant stop the yellowing progressing- but alas it doesn'tt seem to be stopping it

Many thanks

aww come on u stoners, im dying for a reply lol

Judging from the pics the plants havnt even produced many buds, it seems as if they are in wk 5ish of flowering. If I were in your position I wouldnt begin flushing & I wouldnt introduce other nutrients just stick to the feed schedule I PMed you with (OT1) you did receive it right?

yeah someting definately is not right there.....
that being said i dont really know whats wrong with them....
they look healthy ..... but just not too dense....
this seems too be a late symptom of early streching.....

I know how it feels to be in that position...
i always thought the last few weeks were the tuffest...
once you get past week 6 or 7 your usually golden...
but like i luvit said they look like there still in week 5 flower.....

if i were u id lettem flush for two weeks and then start fresh....
you come so far... next grow will be so much better....

With your initial problems causing the slow down, I wouldn't take to much from when you switched them over to 12/12. They def still look like they need another couple of weeks at least. Hang in there, flush in a week or so and then go from there. The plants are showing all the signs of going into their last stages (reason behind your leaves curling, browning, etc.) just need a wee whiley longer - Good luck!

Hi guys, well the plants are still slow to bloody finish leaves are dying and i fear im not gonna get to full maturity before they are going to have to be cut down. To add insult to injury, i tried to alter the height of my HPS light and the ezi-roller thingys gave way and slammed straight down onto one of the largest buds and snapped it clean in half Guys those ezi-rollers are wank so dont make the same mistake as me lol. Anyway im not going to continue to try and rectify my defficiency prob as i fear my trying may make it worse im just going to get them as far as i can before cutting em down, which alas may not be far away. I've started flushing as of yesterday and ill put up some pics later of what they look like atm. Meanwhile heres a pic of the bud that got away! lol Bloody Rollers!!!!!

Damn. F`en ez rollers. I hate when that happens. You need to
Won't be long now until youget a change to reap your rewards.

and OOOOH just tried a bit of it out after drying it andddd mmmmmmmmmmmmm proper stoned!!!!!! may not be all as bad as i thought it would be haha Jees nice all over body stone!!!!!!

Agent, seriously don't worry about your leaves turning in on themselves, browning, yellowing, whatever they are doing. This is natural and has happened on every grow I have done. In fact if it is not happening I am wondering why the plant is not dying. Just remember, in nature all plant energy is going into the bud to reproduce seed (that isn't there naturally = bigger buds) So don't expect to have beautifully green plants just before you cut them down.....expect them to look like you have just dragged them through a hedge backwards!!!

Look at the pic I uploaded, this was just before I chopped....the leaves are fekked!!

Glad to hear your little accident has produced some nice stoney times (sign of good things so come - You are nearly there!!!)

How did you dry it, Agent? Also: is that weight in ounces for just the one bud that fell?

Just dried it rather crudely in the airing cupboard hanging by a string for a few days until it was dried but not over dry then put it into an airtight container for a few days feels dry to the touch but very oily when u crumble it

And ye that was the weight in ounces ( wet) for half of one bud that snapped dried to just over 1/3 of the wet weight of that

Hey ty for ur comment, i know im just scared they are gonna die fully before they get to maturity- or whether this is actually affecting whether they will mature any more , as browning has slowed on this plant . Hey at least you had some green left in the top of ya plant , LOL , even my top cola new leaves are browning - which is alarming to say the least and my buds are leaning badly its prob only for the fact i have so much garden ties around it - its the only thing stopping it keeling over all together lmao

Buds leaning over badly.....that sounds top of the morning to me....means they are fat heavy things.....I kinda thought after I posted that you might mention the green. Okay, here's another one from my last harvest - If you are still in doubt, check Tahoe58's harvest pics out: https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/205665-tahoes-tga-hps-uvb-co2-197.html

Lots of brown leaves and some of the best dank you will see....

Great job agent....
that is some great work for a newbie...
if it was good now....imagine how much bettter the flushed buds will be....
Im quite jealous i must say ....
Now dont get too comfortable....
You got lots of work ahead....
make sure and flushem good ... a gallon per plant....
and as i learned the true battle begins after harvest...
So make sure and keep those temps good when you hang dry those dankers....
around 70 to 80 degrees .....
relative humidity 40 to 60 with slight breeze for maximum taste....
and dont stick that moonshine in jars till its dry..... okay .... atleast 7 days ....
too avoid mold .... i hate mold .....
so happy to see you came soo far from a plant problem thread to taking some advice from a stranger and starting a journ..... ++++++rep

aww ty guys for stopping by and leaving some nice comments <3

im thinking another week lol get them to next fri then shut the lights off and harvest, its bloody freezing in the garage at this time of year, so yet another factor is pressing me to finish, even though i've tried to counteract with my light period being in nite time hrs. I'll try post some pics in a bit show ya how poorly the leaves look lol, they a bit top heavy tho mmmmm xxx

ok as promised an update of pics, my plants are really coming out with some impressive colours now ! lol

Awesome pic..... Loverly colours. At your stage I would have no worries, but that's me, you're going to have the best smoke you ever had...

Peace, DST

Don't you love the changing of the leaves in the fall..
Have fun with that over the holidays.

ty guys and yeah xmas is gonna be a relaxed one this year hahah Sooooo you reckon from the god awful pics that a week of flushing, and harvest next week?

Aaaaah, a nice and relaxing X-Mas is always a good thing. Looking really good!
