Watered with straight water today. We’re in the last half of flowering now and I’m starting to get yellowing on the leaves.


Here's the two girls

Went back to full strength nutes on this watering. Leaves have gotten very yellow.

bump ... !?!

Not sure when/if I'll update grow. I lost someone very close to me quite suddenly last week and honestly I just don't have energy to do anything. The plants are in pretty bad shape as they were left unattended for almost a week before I remembered to water them again. My wife and I are so consumed with grief right now just getting through the day is an accomplishment.

Sorry for the lack of updates.

Watered with full strength nutes and also added Cha Ching to the water.


Still alive but I have no idea what the finished product will be like. Trics are still clear so I still have a ways to go. On previous grows of this strain I've usually cut ~75-80 days into flower.

y did you flush and then start nutes again?

I flushed because I thought I was getting nute burn and to flush out any salts. However I started getting yellowing right away which is usually low Nitrogen.

Watered with straight water.


The plants at this point are pretty much just solid bud.


Trichs are still clear so we've still got a way to go, I'll looking for some couch lock bud so I'm waiting for amber trichs.

that is very good pic my friend

Thanks, I was pretty happy with it.

I'm using a Canon Rebel XS with a 18-55 image stabilized lens. I bought an inexpensive set of close up lens that are +1, +2, +3, +10 that you can stack and used all at once. Manual focus with a custom white balance to compensate for the HPS redshift.

I actually shot about 20 shots, this was the best one though I had a couple of other shots that were close. Because the depth of field is so short, each shot has a different part of the leaf in focus.

Best thing for me is that this is a better view than I can get looking though a 30x loupe.

I'm 69 days into flower so I took some more photos. First one is a shot of both plants, second is a macro of the trichs.

Picture day



Both girls


Bud Shot


Just the top of the bud, nice and frosty


Shot this with my new x20 macro and my x10 macro, combined. It looks like I'm getting some amber trichs so my water tomorrow is going to be a heavy flush with straight water.

Nice and chunky bro! Those trichs are drool-worthy. Sorry to hear about your loss. Hopefully this stuff will help cheer you up. Peace...

And btw, I've got some hashberry going right now. The seeds that I got are very indica dominant, and it and white indica are battling for the fattest plant contest right now. Simply amazing so far. Maybe I'll post a pic?

Let me know when you have a pic up in a thread. I'm actually smoking some of the original Hashberry that I put in storage two years ago(see sig). It's actually part of the same grow where I originally got my cross seeds. In fact, that grow was the last grow that I flowered under fluorescent.

I'm doing a huge flush on the plants tonight with straight water. I put both plants in a big tub and stuck some blocks underneath to keep them out of the water. Then I started flushing about 1 gallon through each pot. I'm going to let them drip dry a little bit before putting them back into the cab because I don't want the humidity to get to high.

I'm thinking that I'll probably be cutting them this weekend which will make it 11 weeks of flowering.
