Yellowing this late in flowering is normal,... if your lights were too close, the pistils would be wilting and burning away from the light, and the leaves would be dry brown and crispy, not just yellow. ;)
Girls look great man! Looking forward to some harvest bud porn! :rastasmoke:
Well I gave them a full nuted feeding...buds are getting "dizamn" big...
just in time too...I'm so low on meds I'm smoking "schwag"elberries...(YIKES!):weedpoke:
Still no color yet though...not even a hint of orange or red...
they will turn....keep checking the trichomes....I always harvest when...all cloudy and 20% to 30% amber.......I have one plant where I just do not have any room to hang it...so it 2 weeks behind the others..and it's about 50 / 50
now....it is possible that the 3 full days of darkness at the end would speed it up.....I have never done this....
anyone have and experience here....
you plants look excellent.....love those colas....great job.
Thanks weeddaddy,
good to see you back after that BS that went down(can't keep a good man down right?)...You would probably think that hearing your story would have a opposite affect in me, but it actually made me think about starting my own delivery service...of course it was just a thought but maybe somewhere down the 2011 line...can't let people like that win.
and about the color Its just crazy there so big now but still totally white/premature...I wasn't even going to check the trichs until I got some color, but I will tonight just to see. I was thinking about doing the "36 hours" of darkness before the actual cutting...just for kicks really, and the bible said that was optimal time length & would have some type of positive affect.
So as the end draws near, my mouth waters and my eyes lear...
Well to start off i got a different camera,although not that much better i went a little crazy w/ the pics anyway...
the leafs seem to be curling slightly more on some then others, buds are getting a decent size I think...
I spotted the first white hairs to turn different color...although not many...maybe 2-3% tops
on a side note
I am really enjoying this new intake...it feels like i have my personal room back again, I dont have to use the heater at all in the grow room during the night period and the humidity has been good(40's)...not to mention my personal room holds heat again! lol...I took a pic of it just for the hell of it
(I took off the silver insulation surrounding it)
"Smell story"
So the cloth fitting filter thing on the charcoal filter stopped working just because it was so damn old...the guy I got everything from said i could probably make it through another run before having to replace it, however another grower came over who I respect looked at it and said "You should really change that"(as he kind of laughed)...buying a new one made me realize how dirty it was...I mean they come in white...and mine is dark gray/black, haha...I also changed my exhaust outing because of this too...I had the fan/exhaust just blowing into my attic...when the filter gave out the WHOLE fucking house reaked for like 2 days...some of my roomates(who dont smoke) were having some kind of allergic reaction to it...nothing serious just allergy like symptoms...so I spent some time this morning and left the fan where it was, but i put 8 inch ducting on the opposite side and directed it to a vent close by(only 2-3ft of ducting) so now the air is blowing directly outside...I also put 2 fans in the attic pointed up at exhaust vents and opened every window in the house and just tried to vent the shit out of it...which was a success.
So without any delay....the pictures, Im going to give them ph'd water tomorrow as well, I gave them nutrients last thursday(12/9)...so should that be the last feeding?maybe one more tomorrow then nothing but ph'd water for 2 weeks you think?(12/17-12/31)...you think they will finish up in those two weeks?...like I said its only a 8 week strain

As you can see I'm maxed out on height...I blame the leaf curl on this...anyone else?http://img87.imageshack.us/img87/9995/0000025e.jpg Image Hosting
This is the new intake(Took off the silver insulation around the inside part of ducting)if you notice the piece of plywood patch behind it that's where the old intake was from

does anyone think this a problem?I have a portable a/c im going to hook up after this run, but i was going to finish the 1st one w/ the wall a/c...w/ the portable one i can stack stuff underneath it to make it blow preety much where i want(under light,over canopy)....in stead of in just on place like this....it does seem like that plant is the farthest behind too...
