Day 55. How are they doing?

420LLIE · Jul 4, 2023

Hello, today is their 55th day.

First photo is Fastbuds GSC, second is Seedsman Jack Herer.
I wonder if there is an abnormality in the GSC, the buds are still very small and the pistils are starting to turn brown. Also I have no idea why it's purple in color. Jack looks fresher and buds are bigger.

How many weeks do you think they have? I think it will take 3 more weeks. Do you think I am wrong? I hope it's not over.. I'm sorry if I'm asking stupid questions, it's my first time growing up..

GSC;

Is the sunlight burning the pistils? Will the new white pistils come out and the buds will grow?

Although it is look nice but it is still very small buds. The fact that the pistils in the first photo are orange makes me nervous, I hope the white ones come out again and continue to grow. I'm waiting for comments from experienced masters to find out what will happen.

Can someone please comment? Does the plant in the first photo have a chance to grow for 2-3 more weeks? Does the pistils being orange tell me I should harvest? It is only 56 days and the buds are still very small.. :sad:

I have just irrigated once using Biobizz Top Max fertilizer 4ml/L. In the table it says I have to use 4ml/L for the last 3 weeks. I always used 1ml/L in previous irrigations. I hope I have a chance to use it for 3 more weeks..

You have 3-4 weeks left. It looks like

That’s when I realized that these 5 gallon autos could take 80 to 90 days instead of the website saying 60 to 70

Is sunlight damaging the pistils? Or is it normal for it to be so orange already? Because the weather here got warmer, it started to be 29-30 degrees during the day. I thought maybe the hot sun was hurting it.. My first growth, please excuse my ignorant questions.

It could be maturation, seeded or genetics among some other things. Don't worry about it just keep doing what you're doing. Your plant looks great

Are you growing on the shady side of your house? Put those ladies out further in the yard if you can. Looks like they're not getting enough direct sunlight.

The balcony gets direct sun for 6 hours a day. I guess it's insufficient, but since I live in an apartment, I have no other choice. Growing in exactly the same conditions, the buds of the plant in the 2nd photo are much larger. (Fertilizer/Sunlight/pot size exactly the same) I guess it's partly due to genetics.

Yep, gotta do what ya gotta do, and yeah you're just gonna have to find strains and/or phenos tolerant of "balcony sun". Best of luck, plants look really good either way, nice work

Top Max is not a fertilizer it is a stimulant. Biobizz says it is; "Flowering strengthener (size and weight), Improvement of nutrient uptake, and Sweeter, smooth tasting crops".

fish mix, grow and bloom are the food, the other bottles are extra and not required but can be used

Yes, i'm using biobizz grow-bloom-top max and cal-mag, watering 3 days a week. My pots are 10 liters, I give 1.5 liters of water per pot in each irrigation. The maximum value in the table is 4ml/L. For 3 weeks i will apply this and flush.

I go my entire run without going much more than 1/2 the strength that biobizz suggests.. their schedule seems designed to make you use more so you come back and buy more.. search online for the "oldtimer biobizz feeding shcedule", there's a bunch of great info regarding using biobizz and how much. when I first started using biobizz i followed the feeding charts and by finish there were usually issues, cutting the feeding strength helped me grow better plants imo

So if you get a magnifying glass and check the pistils they should be getting mostly to half the darker color pistils or something like that, that’s a more definite way to tell
