i had a plant turn out like this before, as far as the dry crispy leaves. it was heat stressed like a mofo with super low humidity. are you monitoring either of those?
Buds are starting to curly and go brown

Hes over 11 weeks into flower. Im quite sure its just fade.
Yes, it’s my first grow I trained it and also think I topped it a little too late. Not a. auto flower, got it from some gas I smoked and just grew it

Yeah looks like you topped it way to late. Usually you want to top when it has its 3rd or 4th set of branches. Im guessing it looks a lot like a christmas tree? The lower buds are significantly farther from the light than the top so they are hungry for light.
You are correct

These look fantastic
Really? I thought they were kind of small and shitty lol. I’m guessing it’s time for me to cut main stem and starting hanging em

LEDs look bright as hell but there isnt actually much energy in the light they put out. I would recommend getting a LUX meter and trying to stay close to this guide.

You are correct. They do look small and shitty. They don't look fantastic and it's not the "fade". It looks like you went little heavy on feeding. Did you use any additives? I'm just being honest here so don't take my comment as an attack. One thing that seems to be happening is that many growers don't seem to know what a happy healthy plant looks like. I don't know how anyone could say those plants look fantastic. I've noticed in recent years with many new growers due to legalization that even the worst looking plants get comments like "Looking great" or "Good job" when the plants are obviously not doing very well. That's due to a lot of misinformation and people watching some dude on youtube with crispy fried plants acting like they're experts when they actually don't have a clue.
So you tell me what I need to work on

I'd be happy to as would many others but all anyone can tell you right now is that you need a better light because the only information you've provided is that you grew under some 300 watt light from Amazon that may or may not be 300 watts and likely more like 100 - 150 watts. If you provide more information like what you grew in and what you fed. Soil. coco, DWC, kind of nutes, how often and how strong you fed, etc... Nobody can just look at a few pictures of a plant and say what you did or didn't do wrong. But it is easy to see that the plant could be healthier.
The good news!
It was your first grow and it still looks better than some of the grows you see from people that have been growing for years. You did a good job for your first grow so you do deserve a pat on the back just making it this far. The next grow will be better. Good luck.
Hey man thanks! This grows been kicking my ass because I’ve been learning. Started giving fox farm nutes about a month and a half ago(hella late) got a Ph meter and Jewelers scope also. Been growing in MG Also. I’m guessing I need to go head and go into harvesting!I'd be happy to as would many others but all anyone can tell you right now is that you need a better light because the only information you've provided is that you grew under some 300 watt light from Amazon that may or may not be 300 watts and likely more like 100 - 150 watts.

You need to be really specific with this type of information. What kind of dirt are they in? How much nutrient did you give them and how frequently? What size pots are they in? How often did you water? This guy is asking for EVERY DETAIL.

Actually not really. Miracle Grow, Fox Farms nutrients, not enough light. Fix those three things.
Man it’s a closet grow. Not in a tint, area wrapped in Mylar. I chose MG off short notice man and everything came together as I grew her. I’ve always had spring break and had to leave for a week and had a friend just watering her, not adding nutes. I got back yesterday and added nutes & Gave her a nice watering. What’s the next step you guys think? Cutting and hanging? It seems like the Pistils are still really glassy.... relax man it’s a first & winged it. I think it’s impressive but I’m definitely needing help!

If you are referring to me,, which I am assuming you are, I am a newbie and don’t know shit, never once did I assume I was a novice or pro.this is my fist grow, and am learning every day. Trying to learn from people, but then you get a guy that ruins these forums for people by being a complete ass and assumes his shit doesn’t stink. trying to encourage people on there first grow, is about being a human being not an expert.I think I saw someone else say,,, you have made it far past most on there first grow so keep your chin high.
