Day 64 - 2/15/22 - 7 days till harvest according the the seed bank. All tricomes are clear as of yesterday. Keeping a real close eye on them at this point (DUH). Defoliated all 6 yesterday. What I did was to cut off anything not related to an actual bud - In other words I trimmed everything except sugar leaves. Picked out that idea from an article by a grower. Made sense to me... There is a really sweet smell that's really strong near the tent. AND NOW I CAN ACTUALLY SEE WHAT APPEARS TO BE SOME PURPLE! Who knew? Having more fun than I expected. Day 66 - Spa day. All 6 got a 6.5ph back-strap molasses flush while in the shower today. That was a really good idea actually. That'll be the last flush until harvest I think. Day 67 - My other grow moved into the tent - 3 White Widows (gonna be monsters). Day 69 - tomorrow harvest day? I'll take another peak at the tri's in a few mins... Day 70 - alleged day of harvest. Well not so fast! Tri's on all 6 are still clear although one might be turning a bit cloudy. Fed them a light watering of 1/2 Tbsp Epsom salt and 1 tsp Tiger Bloom - 1 gal @6.3 for all 6. BTW I'm going with 6.3Ph from now on with all grows. Tiger Bloom because I wanted to give them a tiny bit of nutes for this last push. I'm supposed to receive my new Blue Labs TDS/EC pen today but I can say the soil is (most likely) not saturated with anything at all. Well maybe with molasses lol... I will play with the pen and get some useful info today. Here's the latest pics of everyone getting along beautifully in the tent. Gonna move the tent this weekend and get started on the room.

My 5 gal cloth pots are layered with approx 1/3 Cali Super Soil (bottom) and 2/3 Fox Farm Ocean Forest (top). I assume when the roots reach the super soil all nutes will be supplied. But what happens until then? Should i provide nutes until they reach the SS and if so what kind?

Do nothing for now. You can usually go 3-4 weeks with Ocean Forest and no additional nutrients. Your super soil layer on the bottom could buy you more time for needing more nutes. Just keep an eye on your plants and listen to what they are telling you. This site (https://www.growweedeasy.com/cannabis-symptoms-pictures) has pictures that show many of the most common problems you might have. I am not a fan of layering soils. I want all the soil working. But super soil can be really good stuff! Make sure you water slowly and deeply, especially when the plants get larger. Early on you want to water beyond where you think the roots are. Roots will not grow into dry soil so you want nice moist soil for them to seek out. Then when the plants get bigger feel the bottom of the pot to make sure you are getting water all the way to the bottom. You can feel and see the sides of the pot to feel how you are watering the sides. Just make sure to water slowly. Water takes the path of least resistance so if water erupts out the side of the pot, water more slowly so it's soaking the soil and not blowing out the side. Fabric pots evaporate a lot of water so don't be surprised if you need to water heavily every day. With 19 liter (5 gal) pots I'm watering every day and each pot takes 1.5 - 2 liter of water when in late veg & early flower.

For example I look up Afghan Kush Ryder. The overview says "flowering takes 45-55 days" and then in the description part it says "Flowering - 70 days". I assume it means once you reach the flowering stage it will flower for 45-55 days and harvest in 70. Am I close? Thx!

I diagnosed these pics and added some Tiger Bloom (2-8-4). Now I'm thinking I need some CalMag. Do you have any recommendations? Adding the Tiger Bloom was the first nute I have ever added. See substrate used. 4 of 6 plants have variations of this and it's slowly getting worse.

I think it was smart to add in some Tiger Bloom in case it was lacking a bit of P. CalMg is also a good option. The spots look like calcium issues but also potassium. however potassium will be covered in tiger bloom as well. Give it some calmg and check how its doing in the following week. I'd also raise your ph to 6.5 in soil grows Best Of Luck

Howdy peeps. Wondering if anyone has any thoughts on Burp Lids. I'm nearing my first harvest and think that maybe these are worth getting. Does anyone here use these? Thanks in advance!

Or you can just untwist the jar lid. ;) Can't see this is worth the extra expense especially if it's just your first harvest and you don't have dozens of jars to work with.
