That is one subject i left out lol. It's not crazy bad but persistent. I just got some mosquito bits and neem oil for them. I'll layer some diatomaceous tomorrow.
I have a gnat problem at the moment but pretty much cured up. Its deceiving because the real damage is the larvae in the soil that you cant see.

I have had best results with BTI - Its good because it doesnt affect other beneficial organisms in the soil

Looks like some bomb weed.

dont worry about cloudy trichomes, wait for all the pistils to turn brown first. My first grow took 6 weeks past what the package said.

Ah. This very well could be your problem all together. If the roots are sad the plant is sad. Also fungus gnats spread fungus, which can lead to root rot, ask me how I know ;)
If I were you I'd take care of the pest problem and go from there before fucking with everything. Hard for the plant to uptake nutrients when the roots are fucked.

Damn 6 weeks.... lol don't think i can make it that far. Hopefully 3 weeks max for me. One is nearly all orange and has the most frost. So maybe this weekend or next

I hit the soil with neem an Mosquito bits today. Refreshed sticky traps. Hopefully it helps.

Looks like mosquito bits active ingredient is that luckily. Just hit them today with neem and that today. Hopefully give me better results then other methods tried.

No flushing is only necessary if you have a salt buildup in the medium.
Do you find that white ash is bullshit? Is a good cure enough? I could care less about flushing. Just so much info and opinion on flushing online. Guess ill avoid it this time because of problems. Will try flushing at different times in the future. Plan on keeping these strains a few grows. So i can do my own little experiment. Plan to have atleast 3 of each cut. Guess ill do a 2 week, 1 week, and no flush.

A good dry and cure is more than enough. It's all you need. The only time I've flushed was for a salt buildup. I've never done a flush before harvest.

Fall colors are mostly pheno and looks like a solid strain to run. Pistils are still looking healthy as fuck ….. buds are uniform in growth and adding size.

Im rooting for the plant.

Stop flushing
Feed her accordingly ( ph to match medium )
Add no other nute bullshit / just a good feed.

It would be a waste to throw in the towel … cannabis is quite resilient.
You think I'll have to worry about bud rot? Alot of crispy leaves around buds, not just fan leaves now. I lowered my RH to 40 to be safe. Could lower it to 35 to be extra careful.

Bro that is some almost ready to harvest DANK. Well done!

There isn't mold, there is beautiful layers of trichomes littered over the entirety of the buds and leaves.

So this is my concern still. I wanted a certain amount of amber. But if all my leaves are crisper than fresh popeyes before then. Should i just settle and harvest? It looks like im hang drying them lol. 20220105_234529.jpg20220105_234538.jpg20220105_234607.jpg20220105_234740.jpg20220105_234656.jpg

Everything online says those will lead to bud rot. But i see none. Im just bursting trichomes inspecting every day at this point I'll have none haha20220105_235711.jpg20220105_235658.jpg20220105_235650.jpg20220105_235642.jpg20220105_235638.jpg

What percentage of amber do you like to harvest?
I personally harvest once the heads are all cloudy looking. I don't like "letting them go" longer because trichomes visually deteriorate if you let them go too long.

I chop once the trichomes look like the middle picture for my meds and all my patients prefer that vs the more narcotic/stoned out dry mouth amber trichome weed.

If you notice the trichomes to the far right look shitty compared to the middle. I don't like that but some old heads on here and people with different opinions would argue with me 1000%.

Well shoot, 2 of em shall go down this weekend. I genuinely appreciate the honest subjective opinion with the flip side. Haven't found a lot of that. Fact that you have patients, im sure you're doing something right. I'll let the other go a little longer to see if i like it or not. Do you do a flush by chance?
