^ Yeah I have a Caribe 9 weeks in flower right now that is still glossy green. All it needs is a trace of nitrogen..

Also I never, at any point mentioned starving anything. Nitrogen is stored in plant tissue (such as leaves) and you still need/want phosphorus. Phosphorus requires nitrogen to be used properly, so you still want some nitrogen. But yeah, my leaves are yellowing in the last 2 weeks on purpose and it is scientifically proven that nitrogen levels have a direct effect on THC levels. The more nitrogen, the less THC.

I know this is a real touchy subject on this forum but let me throw a fact in the way of things...

Higher levels of nitrogen at the end of flower results in lower THC levels in the plants. Scientific fact.

You can grow cannabis, as if it is cannabis, or you can grow it as if it were a shrub.

General botany is great for a solid foundation, but each plant differs and there is no ONE way to grow every plant on earth.
Get specific with each plant (hell each PHENO of each plant) and you will get better results. Or you can go generic and get a generic end.

There is a reason the more you grow a specific strain, the better you grow it, you dial in...

If my leaves aren't yellowing in the last two weeks of flowering, I fucked up and have too much nitrogen in my soil.

I agree with you that they should be yellowing in the last couple weeks but it started on the GTH at about 6 weeks, and seeing its at least a 10 week strain I think that is a little too early. But I do agree with Mo and Green Ghost that it is a genetic thing as well, especially on sativas. My super lemon haze did the same thing but the buds came out AMAZING so like I said, I'm not worried.

can you hook me up with a link on that N-THC correlation? id like to read more. seems like most elements need N to work properly.

I recall seeing one paper about a shock a few days prior to harvest but I didn't save it and couldn't find it again. I would be very interested. I've done low N high PK and I've done high N/K low P and found the plants to be more potent when there has been less leaf drop. I believe that there is a lot more gain in yield and potency to be had dialing in the environment than by tweaking the nutrient regiment.
I would very much like to see any papers on the topic. Sadly there hasn't been a lot of academic study on how to grow the most potent cannabis.

Moonshine haze. Pulled at 10 weeks would have gone longer but I had regret on not keeping a mother, and I'm trying some last minute revegging. Praying lol.

Ive smoked all but the Docs and Night Terror out of that list but I'm about to chop my night terror in about 2 weeks and she is looking DANK. Ill post some pics up tonight if I can.

They are all good, Walker Kush being my least favorite. What kind of effects you looking for?

I guess im looking for a heavy yielding one, a heavy hitting one (couchlock, stuff that gets me laugh at stupid shit) and a tasty one.
