Seems like alot longer, but I guess its not.

Week 5 I belive im in. How do they look? Im having an issue where the tops of the colas are super dry.. like if i touch a bud in the middle my hand is sticky as SHIT. If i touch the top 3 inches or so of the cola nothing.. just kinda crispyish and dry feeling. Cant be burned.. light is cooltube and its not even that close.. humiditiy between 38-50% mostuly under 45 95% of the time.

Fan leaves are start to yellow/brown pretty bad on the "tallest" plant.. the one taht is the most dry.. i duno .... : (

Any idea about the dryness of the main cola?? I had a box fan in the tent blowing 24/7 thinking it was drying them out??? Also was ONLY feeding 1.5 teaspoons of bigbloom every other watering since flower.. they are super defic I think... few days ago i gave them half strength of FF tigerbloom.... so hopfully it fixes the deficiencies..

lots of rusty spots all over the fan leafs.... what is that!?

anyway what do you think?

ps: might as well ask.. what do you think ill yield per plant? 1 of them is topped.

You must have fast internet to be able to post all those pics. It would take me a year with my dial up. Go ahead keep showing off.

WOW, lookin real nice there... How long is the flowering period for Strawberry cough? looks like a sativa?

8-9 weeks I belive. Yes its 80% sativa 20% indica.. so def a sativa dominant strain.

Not a very stinky plant ill say.. but if u rub ur fingers on the buds it smells fucking delicious.

Im just worried about the dryness of the main cola on the 2 big ones.

Looks like those are covered in trichs. Dont yank too soon you will ruin a good thing. What seed co. did u use ?? And its normal toward the time of harvest for your fan leaves to die.

I'd think those fan leaves (on the big plant) are withering away per the desired flowering time and not from something you did wrong. I can't speak for the the slight yellowing on the others.

Looking delicious!

I've got the same problems with mine and I'm in the process of trying to figure it out myself...I've been thinking it is a pH problem..its obviously lacking nitrogen as well, but doesn't need much to fruit. I don't think you have a light or humidity problem either. Do you test your pH before feeding? If so, what is it? If you feed every other watering...how often are you watering? you could be overdosing nutes? Lookin good for 35 days of flower overall, mine are a bit strechy...and very tempermental.

it looks to me your ph is too low or your not staying consistent with ph level it self... when i encounter the leaf problems your having i simply trim off the dead parts and try to salvage as much fan leaf as possible...

but that is some crazy looking good stuff

hey I also think its a PH problem. I dont check my ph.. due to me losing my damn tester.. and being lazy. So ph could be anything really. : / Im just nervous because the tops of the colas are pretty dry.. MUCH dryier than the other bud sites..... scaring me.

You say that you were using Fox Farm nutes... Did you use Grow big at all during flowering? Its scheduled to feed Grow big during flowering so torwards the end of flowering the plant can still provide enough N for your plant to give the buds the nutrients they need. :leaf:

with that sativa dominance... i would snip some lower buds to test since they ripen faster than the top colas...

I usually find the colas of the plant get done before the lower branches that just have not recieved as much light love as the colas so I harvest the top and put the rest of the plant back into flowering to finish up. :leaf:

1 time yes on the scheduled like it said yes. But i just started using Tigerbloom last feeding so im pretty sure they were deficient.
