Now I am currently on week 9 of flower, there is only 2 weeks max left for this strain according to royal queen seeds, and reviews also say no longer than 11 weeks..... are these plants finishing up? Will they now use the stored energy in the leaves and force into the buds? I have just this moment filled the res with PLAIN water the bloke at the shop said no more feed now just give it plain water and it will do its job , hes a heavy stoner so do I take his advice ?? Plain water is now running through maybe these plants already have the weight there, they are being held up by a net. Cheers R.B

Lmao I don’t care what the seed company or anyone else says, especially not the hydro shop guy.

Those plants are still fully growing fresh new buds for you right now, they are totally white with growth. Which means they have minimum 4 weeks left. Easily could be more, we don’t know because the plant isn’t showing any signs of maturity. You plants are going to drastically increase in yield and quality still.

You always want to grow the plant by reading the signs it gives.

I would not be feeding plain water yet, because the plant needs food right now, that is why it’s yellowing the old growth. Don’t blast it with tons of nutrients but the goal should be keeping it healthy for the best potential outcome.

Stick some base flower nutes back in for a good few weeks then...

No offense.. but this has to be the classic case of the plant will finish when the plant finishes.. Man you’ve got a ton of white pistils... no doubt listen to Thundercat!!

Even if they do finish at 11 weeks you still don't want to starve them while the buds are swelling. I cut back to half strength the last couple weeks.

Yeah, I’d probably do what natureboy said and use about half strength just to help get the plant to the end.

Poor planning? how do you run out of nutes? It's probably too late anyway, just ride it out and harvest what you get.

I made a mistake, I miscalculated what I had left nutrient wise unfortunately, I think they are still swelling now though with just plain water! So hopefully they have enough weight on them I mean they are falling over and the flush has only just begun! Super excited to see end product alot of cutting coming up I guess
