This is the first plant ive grown and when i started i really had no intention on growing it. The seed was just thrown in my garden and ended up sprouting and looked great so i transplanted to a pot and stuck it in my greenhouse. Im somewhere around 7 weeks into flower (not exactly sure on the strain) and ive got a few questions on how to complete this and get the best yield. Im going to buy some 0-1-2 fert today and im going to water with that until the end. I did the tablespoon of blackstrap in a gallon of water a few days ago and she seems to like it so far. is there anything else i can do to increase the final weight? Can i trim any leaves away to force her to concentrate on the buds?
It actually looks nice for going straight into flower. It's a hybrid, stuff like that takes a bit longer to swell and put on weight. It looks more along the lines of week 5-6 flower but i could totally be wrong lol.

At this point you dont need to do anything extra. She will fatten up and swell on its own as long as you keep her happy and green. Check the trichs on the buds, and if you check under an orange/red light then i would illuminate the bud with white light before judging trichs.

^^this is true...they will swell in the last few weeks...but I think he is trying to get all he can outa it...and if he uses some sort of fert it's gonna help swell those buds out even more...a good Deal more than if he does nothing

i bought a jewelers loupe a week or two ago and ive been using it...guess im just getting anxious and second guessing what im seeing. Shes for sure at least 7 weeks, i went back and looked at the dates on some pictures ive taken along the way. I took it inside to snap some pics, check it out

Here's an old trick I've used for many years; go buy yourself some bananas, cut the stem off then blend them whole with some water then add your mix to a couple gallons of purified water one part banana mix to 3 parts water. You should water with this mix until you are ready to flush for harvest. The influx of potassium will fatten your buds up and give them a robust taste that isnt harsh like when using chem ferts. Hope this helps. Good luck brotha!

I just always use the peals..u can do like scarlet said ...I never tried the whole thing but I'm sure it has vitamins in it that would be useful...if u have good soil I would say the banana mix would work much quicker from the living creatures inside it breaking it down.
But idk how good ur soil is either...just for shit's and giggles I would save some peals and dice the fuck puts them...put about 4 or 5 dices peals into a mason jar with some creek water or rain water..if u have an air pump stick the air some in the bottom and let it bubble for 2 or three days..if not just let it brew and shake the hell outa it every couple hrs throughout the day...kwe it warm..not hot..and water with that at about 1\2 strength ...
