Any room for balance? I have found diligence in the early stages prevents infestations if not occurrences. Don't let them get a toehold and any carryover is long gone by harvest.
But to address the OP, do what you gotta dude. Before I figured out how to manage long term, I had to do what it...
These didn't get set out until summer solstice, which is three weeks later than my norm. All in all they are looking ok. Lots of bud sites after the stretch.
By the breeders reco, I've taken a couple of branches and its heavy and the scissor hash a delight. Decided to let the rest go another few on ph adjusted water.
I'm kine of a newb, this Camel Walk Kush about 14 days out. Not as frosted as others have posted, but the fumes off her .... well now is when smellovision doesn't seem so silly.
For soil isn't that (5.5-6) a bit low? Suppose it depends on the nute values, I run at 6.5.
This is a kush that was flipped 6/15
This is at about 50 days.
