Hi. I m on my first-ish grow, real first was 10 years ago and got busted. I m growing on 50-50 coco perlite mix. 3 supercritical auto and some other plants 2 weeks behind. The supercritical are on day 45 from sprout. The nutes i m using are canna coco A and B, house and garden root stimulator and AN hammerhead pk 4/10. They take about 3ml/l a+b, tried up to 3.5 but leaves got dark green and gave light strength for 2-3 days to avoid burn. I have no ec meter, just ph everything at 5.5-5.8 and keep runoff under 6.1. I ve also been giving 1-1.5ml/l of thunderbolt the past week and use 0.2ml/l root stim. Should i be increasing the pk strength ? Anything important to add at this stage ? How far do u think i m from harvest ? Any yield guess given they are 85-90 and 95cm high ? They r under 600w hps dual spectrum, cooltube. Should an additional 400w hps aimed on side have an effect on yield at this stage onwards ? Would a digital cam with large 24x optical zoom do the trick for trichs ? Thanks.

Hi mate there looking healthy I would say expect to pull 2 ounces each at that height and you'll probs get a bit more if those buds fill out nicely hard to say at this stage but if you get that extra lamp on it will make a big difference. If you can get it on the side that would be great and give light to the lower buds. This helps the lower branches develop dence nugs instead of having leafy airy buds.
flash, is it time ? Please help.
Do you guys think its time to start flashing or is it too early ? Its a 50-50 coco perlite mix so 5-6 days should be fine, considering i always had a bit of runoff and went conservative on the strength of fertilizer with only few products used. Buds are just starting to get gray-ish from completely white and filling up, had 23 hours of darkness due to electricity problems.

Way to early to flush / cleanse mate your buds still have to develope but are looking good there Rory , looks like another 4 wks at least to chop and welcome to the forum Rory hope you enjoy your stay my friend :smokebuds:
Here are some new pics. I really hope the are ready in 3 weeks, i have a house move by the 5th of july and then need to travel abroad and be away for 3 months... Any method to cure without having someone opening jars ?
Is it the right time to be giving full strength PK ?

High!
I am afraid (IMO) but to be ready, they will need more time.
I did the exact same strain and took 6 weeks flowering (bought my beans in August and sowed in 15th of September), if it means something. You will love it,
+ you need to vacate on the 5th,
So to me your best bet:
Go 24 / 0, if you can....
Push fertilizer uptake till 1 week before you leave then chop and water-cure.
The water curing has to be done for 1 week! Not less and not more, it is trouble free, change water everyday!, you can do your stuff....
Hit me if you need details of Water-curing,
Then 1 day only drying (it dries super quick after), then in jars and done
The only downside, if it is, is that you lose the taste / smell of weed but it makes it STEALTH to smoke and carry.....
If you were to smoke in public, you can... but mix it with tobacco cz it does not smell weed but it does has a smell. You might attract the "curious"
Good luck!

How many days did it take u from seed ? Was yours the auto or photoperiod version ? Do you think 24/0 will push it to flower quicker ? I was surprised they became 1m high, i guess due to big pots and coco. Any guess on yield ? How about if i add more light, say a 400hps ? I dont care if its ready to smoke, i just need it to cure without mold without being around to open jars and stuff. Thanks for the help people.
