mattekar Also I’ve been doing the paintbrush method hopefully I get some seeds!

mystrain420 _@eaegifts Ooh you sexing them?

mattekar Well I have two females I was hoping to get seeds from the other ones are too far along I think :) but I’m hopeful

mystrain420 _@eaegifts Well it’s worth a try if you’ve got at least 30 days left to flower

mattekar I was thinking too much water or nutrients

mystrain420 _@eaegifts How’s the temps?

mystrain420 _@eaegifts She’s stacking beautifully

cranky_vet Yup. Got a long ways to go!

mattekar This is my first grow so I’m kinda just winging it taking one day at a time and trying to keep the leaves green, she has a strong gas/ammonia scent I’m not sure if that’s just GrandDaddyPurple or if I need to change something

combatmedic81 Are you giving bloom nutes ?

mattekar Topped and came back strong I think

Mystrain420-@eaegifts Is that an auto? Lots of pistils, kinda looks like it’s flower. What’s the light schedule? I’m high so forgive me if I’m wrong

mattekar The three biggest ones are Feminized Diesel they aren’t budding yet, those are just a lot of pistils 😂 the other ones are photos GrandDaddyPurple but I’m not even sure which sex some of those are yet.. I hope they hurry up though. I have a feeling they might take a much longer time

Mystrain420-@eaegifts A fan will strengthen the stems

mattekar Yeah until recently I didn’t have one, but there’s actually one off to the right you can’t see in the photo and I have a little one on the left, but I think they went too long without them

Mystrain420-@eaegifts Well if the fans there now they should stiffing up some and u can use silica in your feed also to strengthen branches and boost pest/drought resistance 👍🏾

Sativa357 Relatively normal, most likely nitrogen deficiency. Keep an eye on it, as long as it stays at those 2 lower leafs and doesn’t become systemic u are fine.

mattekar Thanks Sativa I’ll keep an eye on it! Is there a good way to raise nitrogen without chemicals?

Peng Yeah those leaves tend to fade out, mine are at the moment, if any branch buds appear from that leaf most people pinch them off to focus energy on other more productive branches, they usually produce the weakest bud growth. You can add nitrogen by either using organic liquid nutrients or by adding kelp powder to the water or top dressing kelp meal/more soil. I usually give around 1/4 tsp kelp powder to 2litres water

speeder420 I’m almost to the same point on my cafe racer and gdp. I am undecided on which direction to go . Was thinking lst or fim’ing. Will be interested in seeing which direction you go .

mattekar Hey speeder, honestly this is my first grow but I’m definitely going to just Top a few of them and leave the others to grow on their own. I’m hoping to breed these one day so I’m worried about hurting the plants too much even though @badkarma Says they can handle it, don’t have a lot of knowledge of Fim’ing but I hear it’s just as effective as topping. We’ll see, I’m still a bit shaky.

mattekar Also let me know what you decide to do as well and good luck with your grows! 💪
