Unless the leaves are seriously damaged or diseased, its best to leave them on. There are many "mobile" nutrients that the plant will actively continue to transfer from these leaves into bud production. Pruning them is not always the best.
I know almost nothing a out Fox Farm nutes, as I have...
Not sure where this thread is right now, but just gonna throw in some real good words for @gromerjuana and all of Thug Pug Genetics. I had a bunch of Peanut Butter Breath that were absolute monsters. Only 2 of 9 had a slightly different, slightly smaller pheno. Before I was put in a position...
Then you are definitely over-watering this plant. These cheaper MiracleGro type soils like the Plant Magic Supreme you mentioned always have those "CraZy WatER hOldIng CapAciTies" for house plant people who always forget to take care of their shit.
For everyone who uses dry nutrients and soil grows, Down to Earth Fertilizer is absolutely amazing. I've been using it for years and I have no intention of ever switching.
My advice is build a cheap-ass little SCROG net if you want to keep it short and with some nice nugs. If you try flowering without giving the nodes at least 10 days to mature they're not gonna produce nugs that you're happy with (at least from my experiences). A net will allow you to optimize...
Everything looks healthy and normal. Even if a female hasn't been pollinated, the older stigmas (what everyone refers to as the pistils) will still turn from white to orange, although at a much slower rate. Great quality pics too bud, keep up the great work fam.
Just as a warning, forcing plants into flower and then "re-vegging" as it's called, gives a small chance for plants to herm. (Usually the more solid the genetics the less likely it is to happen). My advice is to take cutting from each plant (Label them carefully) and then force the cuttings into...
I know Just Be and Angus Hung have answered your questions already, but I wanted to mention to you that I would not be worried much about Hermies at all if you're growing with solid genetics. Topping a plant rarely ever causes enough stress to cause that big of an issue, I've actually never seen...
Give them 36 hours to pop. I've had a few late bloomers do me good in the past. Let us know how you make out amending and preparing the soil as well. Looking forward to the updates.
Even a great organic potting mix will not have everything it needs for the full life cycle of a cannabis plant right out of the bag. They will start out pretty, but will slowly begin to under-preform. You will want to add some level of dry fertilizer to your mix and even add layers of compost on...
Can't see anything broken. Not sure if it's the lighting in the room, but the plant looks like it could use a little nitrogen. Other than that, I see nothing wrong here.
@Susanne Whatever brand of pH pen you decide to use. Its Important that you also pick up a solution of 4.01 and 7.0 pH reference solution to calibrate it and to keep it calibrated. Rinse the tip after each use and store the node in either RO water or the 7.0 reference solution. It's a sure fire...
