Brown = B
Clear = C
Milky = M

i see mostly Milky than Clear and just few Browns.
Why is this way to early ?????

Maybe just led board dont produce massive buds.
I used only organics nutrients and water.
Maybe bit under feeded...etc...
Its easy to tell under light that clear like glass or that milky that look like plastic.

But explain me why is this not ready to harvest and its to early.
@revegeta666

I want your help now.
wtf are you even seeing in that picture, it's just a white mess you can't see anything at all

Grown under led wiith organic slow release nutrients

Now that's a different kind of help that you need mate 🤦‍♂️. If you're not able to handle constructive criticism without having a meltdown, why post pictures on a public forum?
Cuz I can.
Why your trichs dont shine...they look like freezing dry sandy trich plant wich is dry at touch.
Where are your trichomes heads?
Trich stalks want produce terps nor high.
Just for info.
In case you didnt know.

In all fairness this is crazy out of focus. Hard to tell what were looking at but whatever makes you happy with whats in your pipe is awesome. Just enjoy your smoke and dont worry about what people think. If you like it, then its great.

I have, its unfortunately similar looking to K deficiency 😂. Necrotic edge, but in any of the examples ive seen it looks like less severe necrosis and without and less of the entire edge appears burnt. Im a touch low Zinc but high Boron. It appears I may benefit greatly from deionization if it is in the water. Having the high boron could be causing the issue with my K uptake if what youre reading is correct. Mind sharing where you found that info? Id greatly appreciate it!
Inductively Coupled Plasma Emission Spectrophotometry, has a measurement error of 300% for B

I didn't see what methods the lab used with your samples. When I see things like 300% though, I really want to put my lab under the microscope. Spectrometry is nearly always on the cards.

Is that right? I guess id need to contact Perry and ask what method they use to test. I could also ask if this has happened before? But tbh the guy seemed surprised by the B result so im not thinking thats the case…. Im having a hard time understanding where its coming from…..its annoying me truthfully.

Might be worth getting a tank sample looked at. Over there, they legally post minimum values as a guaranteed analysis. Your feed could contain a lot more than it claims. I presume your water company published what's in the tap. So a combined report could be all you need.
Water reports should cost less, but if you specifically want B looking at, you should tell them this. As the method above is commonly used for tank analysis. It's actually from a Bugbee paper.

One good man send me this photo its one of the parrents of cut I grow....so as you can see..very close to my buds.

PK PGR growers dont like calyx and buds must look rock hard like moon rocks if not its not harvested at time and way to early.
🤣🤣
By some people here this bud needs at least 2 month more of flower to look ready.

No need to make it personal.. Advice/Opinions were given. If you like what you grow, harvest when you want. Trust me it's better to just ignore any Advice/Opinions than to argue about them. :canabis:
That's one of the unique things about this thread in my opinion. Crooked8 has been presenting his grow with a lot of helpful data, transparency, and very little ego, yet he still gets trolled and spoken down to. But, instead of letting it get to him, it's handled professionally and with grace, it definitely makes this a much more readable thread than some of the Sativa ones. It's refreshing. :bongsmi:

every progress is born with pain. There is no science without suffering. The main thing is that there are no personal insults. But I think it is good to question all attitudes. Only that brings us new knowledge.

Thank you for this complement. Ive definitely had it out with people in the past on here. I made a decision to just never get into it like that anymore. If i can be helpful, im gonna be. If i can get advice from some of the talent and experience we have here, im going to listen. Ive used this forum for over 10 years and its absolutely changed my life for the better steadily. No point in letting bad attitudes get to us! I feel lucky to have the support ive had. Much love ❤️

The plant in this photo needs 2-3+ weeks to ripen imo. Ive had strawberry diesel and bruce banner that had good density and was fully ripe. It does look close to yours, but i do doubt they harvested any time soon.

Heres an example of strawberry diesel from my friends personal grow from 2016-2017ish.

He never used pgrs or PK boosters. This was at week 9. Also, boosting PK does not inherently reduce quality whatsoever. If you are supplementing PK and your feed is in range, youre doing good things. Everyones setup is different and requires fine tuning. Im in the middle of that now, thats for sure!
