Nice looking plant.
Im doing 4 CK at the moment. One week ahead of yours.
At week 5 they began to yellow a little below the canopy. Gave them more food and they have eaten it up.
I had a power shortage for 48hrs. Not sure if they will suffer because of it.
What size pots do you use ?
Are you expecting to cut them at wk 8 or 9 ?

Very nice lookin plants there bro!!! Im going to cut mine down this weekend which would be 8 weeks. The buds didnt get as big as i wanted this round because i switched from chemical nutes to organics in the middle of her flowering. I got 4 ck in veg right now and im planning on topping them and doin a sea of green type grow next round.

Nice one :bigjoint:

ive got 5 cheese just popped to follow these ladies.
I wish i vegged the CK longer than 4 weeks. Im happy with them but i was expecting more to be honest. Im going to let these go to wk9(63 days) and see how they get on.
Ive never used chem nutes before only organic.

Best of luck to you brother :leaf:

Hey Mr D.

From what ive read and know.
Take an 8 wk mainly indica lady as an example.

Cut at 6 to 7 wks the trichs are mainly clear giving a head high.

Cut at 7 to 9 wks and some trichs are cloudy and slightly amber giving you an all round high body and mind.

Cut from 9 to 11 wks and most trichs are amber giving a body high (couchlock)

Most try to get the trichs 40% cloudy 60% amber.

But that is completely optional.

You seem to have alot of clear stems mixed with cloudy heads.
Id give it another week to two weeks and check them often.
Hope this helps you.

Best of luck to you brother :leaf:

Do you ph your water before feeding? I use the general organics line (go box) and it says not to ph.

I shoot for 60%clear 30%cloudy 10% Amber... The couchlock effect comes from the breaking down of thc to a cbn I believe.. I love the functionality of a clear high

If you shoot for clear trichs does this mean you sacrifice some yeild as you would have to harvest earlier ?

Nice one brother :bigjoint:
Ya there coming along nicely.
Its this thread that gave me the info i needed.
I was going to chop this weekend also but Dr Frank cut his a day 63 (9 wks)
so i thought id wait and see how they will do.
I cut a lower branch yesterday and smokin it now:clap:

I reckon if you topped your CK you should leave them go for at least a 1 1/2 to 2.
Shame to cut them early after all the effort you put in.

Peace :peace:

Hey very nice. How many watts u got running in ur flower room? And how tall do u let them get before flipping? Mine are around a foot and a half right now. Im gonna give them a week or two to recover from the topping then switch

They are currently getting 1000 but by the end of flower it 'll be between 1600-2000... They only need about a week to recover , expect them to about double in size... Knowing that... I generally flip when my screen is 75% full... They finish stretching by day 21
