A little background- 1st grow bagseed.
I had 3 plants all growing wonderfully until about 4-5 weeks into flower. then there were a few small yellow spots on a few leaves. I started to lower the ph of the water from 7 to 6.5 as some thought it might be high PH. Due to a broken ph meter i have no idea what i dropped the water to. it was supposed to be 6.5 but i recreated the mix and tested it with a new ph meter after i figured my ph meter was hosed and the water around 3.8. so the yellow spots got a little worse but everything was still growing. around the same time i went away for the weekend and came back to find one of the plants hermied. not too much damage to the other plants but they were pollenated and then i only had 2. the smaller bud i tested didn't have any seeds. then a week or two later my exhaust fan on my hps fried and stopped venting. so the leaves on the top burned. badly. bud seems ok. now I'm 8 weeks flower with the two plants. I check the trichomes with a 60-100x pocket microscope and they are 90-95% cloudy 2 %amber rest clear (as I can tell).I want to have two different types. 1 cloudy very little amber and one yield with 20-30% amber.
is this plant ready for harvest as the only cloudy one? The calyx are swollen. pistils have turned. the leaves on the main bud are pretty much gone. this one was damaged the most.
I can't seem to post pics. it keeps giving me an error so I will see if I can do it somehow else.
best i can do for pics
