I don't know WTF I'm doing here.....

If she's pulling N from the lowers, chances are she's not N tox. up top.

You're right. I do understand if it looks like it below it's because the rest of the plant is lacking it. The bigger question is what's going on, legit needs from the plant or am I overwatering? What I meant up top was that it's dealt with n tox at the start and now seems to be lacking it at this stage but is in a great mood everytime I check In.
 
I know I hit it with CS when it was smaller, but the muchacha pollen collected will definitely have two asterisks beside it.


One for the slow growth from seed(that I more than likely caused), and the second is just in case this is a natural herm due to the stress/genetics.

2x2 note:

Pollen sacs are getting bigger by the hour so I've relocated every colloidal silver treated branch + the entire Muchacha auto by Twenty20 Mendocino.

Cups day 42: I wasn't sure how an organic feeding should be done in cups (zero guides or discussion on it), but I've done three top dressings that were totally random none of which have been documented.

The girl I thought would die from sitting in a fish emulsion stew has become the best smeller and looker of the three.



CDLC: She's had the N toxicity look on her since like week two, but besides that she's pushing through it well. So hard to fucking train it without damaging the cups or topping it again. Everything considered i feel it's doing great. *Knocks on wood*

Lights: 18" from the tallest plant and sitting at 75%.

VPD: 85° and 60-62% humidity.

I may have jumped the gun and removed the branches too early. Hopefully it has some damn pollen inside them...

CDLC still growing somehow. I'll remove all wires and redo them Tuesday night.

F-ing gnats, They suck. But they don't win anymore. Fresh EWC top dress and a mulch layer over it, problem solved! I do it with any planter larger than 1 quart. I still put up yellow sticky traps, just to be sure. I have to change the sticky traps {1 per tent} twice yearly, and even then, the traps are only 1/3 filled. Give it a try, it is cheap and effective!

Me everytime I open the tent, and just when I was starting to enjoy that strong pine smell from the northern lights.

Thanks I'll be using this suggestion tomorrow as I haven't used fresh ewc in a while and instead been using Biochar's compost and soil conditioner. What mulch do you usually use when applying this method? And it honestly isn't too bad, I mainly see one or two flying while in the tent.
 
I use hardwood mulch from HD, Menards, Lowes. I also carefully use branches and tree trimmings, Run them through my chipper and then, bone dry them. Just have to be sure to watch for bugs, so yeah, I'd suggest the Home depot stuff to start with.

If after a few weeks, you don't see a lot more, you must likely don't have a problem. I've seen hundreds at a time. That's bad. Lol

Everything in moderation. You most likely will always see them on occasion, but keeping the populations in check is key.

True, a hundred at a time would definitely be something short of an alien invasion. True, my last grow I may have seen ten total so maybe I had unreal expectations moving forward. I just seen someone here post about using a vacuum when things get that bad, smart. Lol.

If I can take the best proven methods from tested growers and use them at my disposal then I think I'll be fine in whatever occurs.
