Hi folks. see photos for a slight conundrum. My Grape Ape is at 9 weeks since switch to 12 12. She is in my homemade super soil, and this grow I had some Magnesium and sulphur issues. First time so I expect I was attentive enough (stoned) and missed some ingredients like dolomite lime. anyway, supplemented with cal-mag brought er back. but I stopped it a couple weeks ago and now this plant only is fading super fast. Trichomes are say 60% cloudy and getting close,but the yellowing is now getting to the buds. I am going to wait a few days and chope her then regardless, but wondering about opinions, noting that past grows I have let the leaves yello right into the buds with no noticed bad effects . note that it is too late to bother with anything remdial. Breeder says 8 weeks flower. Shitty photos -sorry. Wake n Bake prior to some troutin is a great start to the day

A happy Canuk. this grow will be using Flora Flex nutrients in coco/perlite. 9 plants in 3 by 3 tent and 8 plants in 2 by 4, in 1 or 2 gallon pots (whatevere is there). manual fertigation planned. veg till around 1 ft high. 2 by 4 tent light is Bloom Plus 2500 and 3 by 3 tent has Mar Hydro Ts3000, both of which seem awesome. -

Stick with your plan. The only thing I've noticed about dead leaves wilting into the flower is the hassle of trimming them. I'm curious how this works out because I'm wondering about harvesting different plants at different times from the same grow. Out of 4 haze girls I have one that I think is ready or most of it is but the other three are not.Auto Tent: Gorilla 3x3x6, HLG 350R, Infinity 4" w/Carbon Filter, Autopot system, Coco 50/50 perlite: Seeds dropped 4-1-2023ILGM Super Lemon Haze

Really i think your one plant rippening before the others is a blessing golfnrl. I plan on that happening when i grow all different strains or stagger my seed germination. Nothing more teadious to me than trimming up large harvest all at the same time. -
Well. I hadn't considered that. It does make sense. You're right about harvesting a bunch at one time too. If I end up taking the one before the others i will need to find a place to dry it. I usually dry them in the tent they came out of. All of my closets are full of other...stuff.

Same issue I had re drying it. I harvested over a 2 week period and the first 2 weeks of dry was far from ideal but it was mostly the low hanging fruit...if I had a separate dry room I would have done it very differentlyGrow Room: 11' x 7' x 7.5'H, 480w AC, 13gal/day dehumidifier, 1.5gal ultrasonic humidifier, 60gal (27gal usable) nute tank, 20" & 16" pedestal fans & 18" wall fan. Lighting, fertigation and climate automated

Current Grow: 4 x photos, old school, 66 days of veg flipped 25 Feb harvested day 65F 3lb11oz.
Previous Grow: Lots of big dead mouldy buds, medium and small buds made it, barely. Primarily indica traits. Cured in glass jars.Comment

So. I chopped Grape Ape yesterday and once i started trimming it more seemed the leaves that were fading were actually just turning a weird red. actually made it easy to dry trim because they stood out. and trichomes were changing, so all ended up being pretty normal. buds look like wet trimmed usually do for me. I always grow several strains at once and seldom do they finish same day for me. still got 4 left in this grow. Cheers all. I did quick dry a bud for sample and it is f...n awesome! glad i waited!
