Hello, first time grower

[Kimber015]

Hi all,

Seed: Barneys farm, Gorilla Zkittlez

I was given some advice to do some defoliation, in week 4 of flower. Which now seems was the wrong thing to do according to a few people I’ve spoken with.

I’ve added some pictures, I’m worried they may be turning Hermie as I think I can see little sacs. I’m at the end of week 4.

You’ll notice in one photo the leaves are crispy and damaged, my understanding is this is a Calcium issue and I’ve added Cal-Mag.

Thanks

Welcome to the forum. Looks good. Those resin sacks full of THC. My fav part of the plant i eat raw or roll up into nice smoke.

That’s good to know, I’ll try it raw and let you know my thoughts, thanks.

Just an update. Only 10 days into flush, how long do people suggest? I was planning on 14. Visually do these seem ready to cut down?

Merry Christmas all!

Oh dam sorry hi and welcome to the community

Thank you. Seems good here, lots of good advise.

I have not checked them, tbh I wouldn’t even know how or what to look for. Thought it could be done just from the naked eye.

No you need a jeweler's loop it's called. Cheap got one on wish for 4dollars

But if dont have you can see amber trics on your leaves by naked eye but not good indicator.

I would go by time and what seedbank says for strain.

Or chop she looks good. But wait for more opinions on this go with majority rules

 

[Kimber015]

Well I’ve enjoyed the grow as a first timer, so I’ll be ordering that for the next. Put these in around 36 hours ago, spent 5 days in tissue paper. 9/10 popped up so far.

Have learnt so much throughout from hours upon hours of reading through out forums, and often following that same advise, majority rules. Sunday is 8 weeks into flower, which is about correct according to seedbank, so hopefully it’ll be correct.

Babies look great.

When you get a journal on the go you will get ongoing expert advice from some great people on here. Emilya, Amy Gardner and Chris Scorpio are some that are very active helping out. Old Salt SweetSue the list is endless there is just a huge bunch of great people here.

 

[Kimber015]

Thanks for your help.

The new grow will be recorded properly and I’ll do the journal.

Cheers

Thanks. I’ll try get some more photos once the lights go off, the hps bulb just ruins the colour of photos.
