If my climate was better I wouldn't hesitate to put outdoors under natural photoperiod again, preformed better outside than inside in my opinion, flavours better, high is stronger but not complete with the cold and everything and also couldn't get a proper finish so it's a bit harsher too.
There is a noticeable difference out compared to in? Did you have a good light?

Yours looks really good compared to mine. Do you PH your water to keep it pretty like that? What week of flower are you in?
First and foremost, I owe it to the solid fertilizer. I buy the soil ready to use and it is now very well adapted to cannabis (Google Florganics Dope Soil).
They say that you don't have to pay attention to the pH value as the soil should balance it out, but I nevertheless always adjust the pH value to 6-7.
I don't currently add any more CalMag.

I'd do the same. Your plants definitely show that your concept is working. How is your water source?
A little off topic, but I'd really like to do a 1:1 comparison between pH adjusted vs unadjusted with my very hard and aklaline tap water (EC 0.57, carbonate hardness 15°dKH = acid binding capacity 5.2 mmol/l, HCO3- 300 mg/l, pH 7.5 out of the tap, but 8.2 if you let it sit overnight to evaporate the CO2). I haven't even tried to use that unadjusted (maybe I should?).
If you dig a little in the small print and FAQ of the manufacturer, the claim "only add water, no need for pH adjustment" becomes a little relative, as they do recommend an EC of 0.3 as a base and adjust it with CalMag to 0.6 for LED.
Nevertheless, their soil mix sounds interesting* and the company is located basically around the corner from where I live, so they should have experience with exactly our tap water. I think I'll email them and ask.

My Golden Tiger v3 is in her 12th week of flowering and looks like she needs at least another 2-3 weeks.
Bracts are really swelling now and she is very resinous with a herbal sweetness, more floral than fruity. A little diesel with rubber in the background, a whiff of fresh asphalt if you wish. If you get the resin on your fingers, the smell stays for many hours, not as fleeting as the Purple Zamal x A5 Haze's bright, perfumey scent that has notes of wintergreen oil and paint thinner.

Edit: *until you look at the price tag...

Oh you're going to enjoy that lady, the cure six months makes it even better, I'm on some from about ten months curing and it's better than fresh, fresh has better lemon flavour but overall it keeps getting better
You think it will still be good with my off pH? You think she slams better than hybrids? Northern Light, Gelato, Gorilla Glue?

She is not the same as hybrids, different high, compared to glue different effects, glue is super strong this is strong in a different way.

I had lots of yellowing when I grew mine first it hits well, compared to glue on potency 7 if glue is a 10.

Fix feeding issues they will improve of course, my cut, nothing extraordinary aside from the fact every day hits the same, getting more euphoria longer the cure, duration of effect is great for me, not pistol whipped the next day, can function for things like cooking, doing chores, setting up lights etc and have a great mood enhancement ime. I was having her every day for three months then I got tired of her, came back later and now it's a week solid and back at the same place where I'm just going to that jar everyday.

I think you will find the character of her this round and next you will have any pH issues figured out and have an even better example of her, just let her fully ripen, I tried some starting 12 weeks and it was good but short duration and 14 weeks was great. Putting another one in tonight.

I am not a fan of glue and those types of weeds to be fair, I can appreciate them so for me sativas are what I'm after for the most part

Thanks for the insight. I'm definately loving the process. I was pretty rough at first with the rapid, overpowering growth, but I managed to get this far. The best part is I know when she needs the change in nutes, I just didn't think it was ph because I never understood really how important it is. Now I'm going to pay more attention on the future runs.

Here is mine 80 days after first pistils. We went through some bumps on the way, but at the moment she seems to like the mineral based 4-7-8 NPK fertilizer. She was very nitrogen sensitive and an abundance of that N may have delayed her some when recovering from a deficiency after up potting. Then, I lost a lot of the large fan leafs when I let the soil get too dry once while I was away for a few days and the humidity fell to 33%.
