What's up guys. Day 55 delicious critical SSH. Getting some yellowing and brown spots. Is this normal for week 8 of this strain. Says 70-75 days to bloom. No pocket scope but a cheap eye magnifying glass shows a ton of clear trics but it doest seem any are changing to Amber. I'm impatient and can't afford bud so I did pull and dry about 1/4 total the past couple of days. The taste isn't there, deff a head high and a pretty damn good one. No head ache after from the nutes, not the greatest tasting and a little harsh though.

Anyone the yellow and the brown.
-I think my light has been to close all of flower. My thermo was in the upper corner of the closet and reads 71-81 I put it under the light at the top of the canopy and was up to 94 in no time. (No inline yet. I keep the door open when lights go on)
-I've been having issues keeping my pH around 5.8. I start the week with fresh nutes and pH it to 6.0 by day 3 I'm at 5.0. I brought it back to 5.5 by adding more water with nutes 15ml/gal pro bloom and 3ml cal mag. It was fine using this recipe the week before.

I belibe the spots and yellow is from lockout or is it burn? Or is it just getting close to time.

I'm was going to drop the nute level for week 9 which starts tomorrow and flush for week 10. Should I just flush now for the next 2 weeks and hopefully chop them at day 70? What happens if I start to flush and they still need more time

Since the strain has the sativa haze in there, it's going to be hard to decide when it's done. I think the plant is perfectly healthy few of the leaves look funny but 99% of them are fine. The buds look absolutely gorgeous and totally huge and dense nice work. I would flush at week ten like you suggested. HTH

Looks done to me. The yellowing is to be expected near the end, the plant takes nutrients from the leaves. Looks like you have some light bulb burn. Flushing? What is this flushing you talk about? Sounds like nonsense to me.

Thanks guys. Yeah she's close. I've read 55-65 days. Just read this should be 70-75. Trics still look pretty clear but I don't have a scope jus a magnified eye glass... I did pull a branch about 4 days ago that nice and dry now. Pretty clean smoke, soso taste and pretty decent head high no body (expected more head then body but it's still not a pure sativa) so I was thinking it needs another week or two. Put me at 70days...

I thought it could be nute burn but I know they sometimes yellow and die off.... Lights are off now and I'm drunk but I bet my pH is around 5 right now locking shit out. Tomorrow's a res change so I'm just gonna ride it out. She didn't look any worse tonight then today.

I'm gonna flush before I harvest no matter what.
-when I flush do I pH or no it don't matter pH is to up take certain elements?
-would you guys think. I use 7gal in my res, can I fill with 7gal tap h2o (dechlorinated over night) for a day or 2 to flush bc of the possible nute burn? Then add a low dose of nutes for the week. Then straight water for the next week?
-when you flush you don't change the water any more then the whole grow right? Read some guy changes his water every day in a flush?
Thanks guys
