No fan leaves!

This is only my second grow and I've never checked the ph of my water untill recently. All of the fan leaves are dead and gone due to the ph being way off 4 months. I recently figured out that the ph was my problem and took the needed steps to correct the problem. It's about 4 weeks into flowering and looking SO much better now that im adjusting the ph. It's 4 foot, 2 inches tall under two 150 watt hps lamps with some cfl's 2700k around the bottom. I'm feeding it with Botanicare's Pro Bloom. It's covered in buds that are well covered in trichomes, bud there are no fan leaves. My question is this: can anyone tell me what kind of quality I should expect from this plant?

quality, im not sure, that will be up to curing and such, but as for the plant, it really does need those fan leaves...all the nutes that were built up in those fan leaves help produce buds. you mite not be producing anything more than what u see there, only time will tell tho. good luck man.

This is what the plant looked like a few weeks ago b4 the damage was done. Before I started adjusting the ph the water I was putting in there I found out had a ph below 4. I'm keeping it around 6 now. the trichomes are turning white now.

The other plant u c in the right side of picture 1 is the first plant I grew. It of course had the same problem I just couldn't fix it cause at the time I didn't know what was wrong. It's results were mediocre I guess. It produced some ok smoke but now that I have fixed the ph problem the buds on plant 2 are already looking better than the first plants did.
