I'm in my 5th wk of Flowering. I started off w/an AG 200 until 2nd wk of Flower
but the roots had filled the whole res. to were it only held 1/3 gal of water..!
So, I took an 18 gal tote,cut out a whole, removed AG top & placed on top of
tote. I have a 2 gal container inside of tote, w/3- air stones to finish growing her in.
Here's what I have set up
5x2x7 rm
W.Temps 67-70
A. Temps 80-85 on/ 62 70 off
Humidity 45-58
1)400HPS, 1)65wcfl=300 &1)23w= 100 2700k's (I should get more light..? )
Technaflora "RFS"

I'm starting to lose a lot of leaves, & some have spots & curling alittle..?
Here r some PICS***
The 1st 2 pics r @ 21days & 32 days old, & u can see how this Bitch just over
took the AG!!! The last 3 pics r from 11/21
Let me know what u'all think, & is she just going though the process..?
Thanks "RIU" TEAM

If it isn't broken, don't fix it. If what you're doing is working, and apparently it is, go with it. Sounds like a natural progression to harvest. Your plants are expending all their energy in trying to reproduce so they're going to look bad. At least all mine do. The real test is going to be in the tasting.

I have to agree with HSA on this one. I am in my last week and doing my final flush right now, and I don't have any fan leaves left on it. I trim all the died stuff off. So I got buds on sticks now. But that's ok just 1 week to go. Then chop chop

Tstone: We've all learning. I'm in the second week of blooming and I used to really stress over what I see now but I don't any more. I'm getting some beautiful flowers forming and the ends of the fan leaves are starting to curl and brown, usually a symptom of nute burn, but I don't think it is. My 'ladies' are now expending all their energy toward flowering and it will only get worse. I've always judged the health of my plants by the visible condition of the fan leaves. Our instructor says when they go into flowering and they get discolored and about a third curled it's time to remove those leaves because they're consuming more than they are providing. You might remember the old saying a friend of mine had posted on the dash of his VW, "Ass gas or grass; no body rides fro free." That's when the fan leaves go into the composter. Keep us posted on your progress and I'll try to do the same.

I'm looking for a decent digital SLR to be able to show you what I'm doing. Of course I'll have to learn how to use it too.
