Hey jeezooz, Yeah I know it pays off in harvest but I've always tried to take as few as possible. I enjoy the growing as much as the final product. I'm not a heavy smoker so I go for quality over quantity. Not sure if heavy defoliation and the stress it causes helps or hinders the final quality? Just the way I've always done it.

filedata/fetch?id=17847640&d=1619969464 19 days in flower.
Ace says 10-11 weeks so one more feeding @ week 5 or 6 should get her through nicely to harvest. I go easy because my soil is pretty rich and Ace doesn’t recommend heavy feeding as well. I’ll go 1/2 strength w/ 1 tbl of 4-4-4 & 2 tbl of 3-9-4
After that it’ll be just molasses and recharge.
The last 3 weeks I’ve added 1-1/2 cups of castings.
My lights at the top, I’m pretty much out of head room w/ the lights @ 14”-15”.
Prob should bend the 4 tops but I’m trying to avoid that if possible. We’ll see what happens in week 5 which is when this strain is suppose to take off...
So far she’s been super easy, lots of bud sites w/out any training, just thinning, zero deficiencies.
I’m expecting a sweet harvest come mid June.

In my eyes it looks a little low in fertilizers, especially in the last photos ...
Unless it's the lights that look like that ....
However, this strain is one of my favorites ....

Thanks for checking in dubi...
Question, I fed @ week 4, would you feed again @ week 7 or 8?
I use a dry fertilizer that takes a bit to break down.
Would this give enough time to flush the nutes if this goes 10-11 weeks?
With 8 week strains I typically don’t feed again after week 4 other than maybe recharge or castings so as to allow the plant time to use the remaining nutes in the soil. I don’t flush.
I’m Phing @ 6.2-6.5
Thanks-

Hi jwm,
Longer flowering hybrids that can accept good amounts of nutrients like this one need good amounts of NPK and micronutrients almost until last reflowering, otherwise the plants will start to yellow very early on, just a few weeks into flower, stopping its potential to reflower properly, thus not producing nice and long colas. Resins production will be also affected if the plant has deficiencies already in mid flowering.
PH for soil should be a bit higher (6.5-6.8). I would recommend you to change to liquid organic fertlizers of fast absorption, it's more difficult to correct the feeding and flush properly with dry fertilizer that takes time to break down.
Hope it helps!

Thanks for the input, appreciate it.
I’m committed to the organic dry nutes at this point.
No more measuring and mixing crazy expensive liquid nutes for me.
I’m going into week 8 w/ no signs of
premature yellowing or signs of deficiency.
I’ll continue w/ recharge and castings and let her naturally flush out the remaining nutes over the next few weeks.
There’s always the next run.
