Never sit down and shut up. LOL. Someone will be able to learn when we make mistakes. You, me, or someone else.

Better to guess and be corrected. Or atleast try to the best of your ability to diagnose problems. And then if and when you get corrected you learn from it. Been a few for me and they really stick! 
I would rather have you try to help and take part then to sit idle on the sidelines! Looking at the calendar I got one more feed tomorrow at lights on or day after. If it survives and hits a dry pot after that I am good as it will look like shit from nutrient deficiencies when I flush it and it feeds on itself. Maybe I get beginners luck and squeeze this grow out and be more organized and prepared next grow.

Naw thanks @Bulldognuts lol
^me
That is true @anon89489555! Well correct me if I’m wrong ha ha Well I’m just usually good at being peoples cheerleaders and hype them up and support them haha So yeah I sometimes like the sidelines 
ha ha
I’m praying it survives, it looks pretty nice to me!! 
like why the did marijuana get the nickname weed because they ain’t easy haha maybe their name was difficult to spell 
Just curious what’s your feeding schedule like? And do you flush once a week or? And do you flush just one time or Like 2days in a row?

Feeding schedule is once a week with a watering in between of plain ph balanced water. Anymore and I would run risk of nutrient lockout or burning the ladies with nutrients(I learned this this grow.)
Too much of a good thing is a bad thing. Watering until you get a runoff of about 10- 20% of what you put in helps avoid this. Flushing is reserved for taking a #2 in the potty and when you need to correct say PH levels or because you over fed them. Some people flush between going from vegging to bloom. And last week or two from harvest you flush to rid soil of built up salts, minerals, food and force plant to eat the nutes it has stored up helps keep smoke smooth and tasty. Also you can be my cheerleader anytime! You know you hit the big time when you got a hottie for a cheerleader 
Now if I could just grow weed without making mistakes, clearly I am distracted hahaha
Great Yoda gif. Makes me laugh does he hrrrm!!

Got to zoom in on that. @Hellraiser @Myfriendis410 I think this is ph fluctuations but I also have one feed left to go before that final two weeks for flushing out my soil. I think I can make it the 18 days to harvest as the plant will cannibalize it’s leaves for nutrients anyways. Or is it jus the new grower in me worried over nothing. I yanked on the leaf it isn’t pulling out at all. fans are always on 24/7 same as exhaust.

I’ve been able to learn quite a bit going through new post in beginners section. Many new growers will ask questions and there are several experienced growers who consistently help out answering questions and they will let you know if you get something wrong LOL 
But you will learn 
Do you have a grow journal, if so tag me so I can see what you have growing.

I’d bump the input water ph to 6.5.
Ok I will do that with tonights feeding. Pots felt close to ready. I have been running into my runoff climbing to 7.0 despite consistently keeping ph in the 6.0-6.5 range. The drift seems substantial.
Again thanks for the imput.
OK thanks for letting me know how you feed @anon89489555 appreciated that… I was reading feeding schedule that came with my CYCO brand nutes and was abit confused when had flush each week! So I was just abit confused…
In between wk1 And wk2 says flush with klense…
Thats why I was asking.
darl, thanks! haha
I wish I felt like a hottie 
Clearly you can’t blame your mistakes on others 
But if it makes you feel good okay 
haha
Haha yes that is tru… @Bulldognuts
Yes I do 
I’ll tag you in it…
Watered and fed tonight. Only one or two dead leaves down low so whatever it was has hopefully cleared up. Crystals are really forming each night thanks to dehumidfier. Runoff was all 6.8 so thars a drop from 7.0 to 7.1. 18 days from harvest window beginning. Two look like they will be done on time and the other two will likely take another week beyond that unless they speed up. Buds are definitely swelling and leaning. Had to tie a bunch up, great problem to have. This strain is most definitely capable of baseball bat sized buds and hopefully next go that’s what I get!!

Kind of. More so to get this wrapped up and drying/cured. Next crop will be a bit into winter. No more summer grows.

At what rh do you see diminished returns for your efforts? I was guessing anything lower than 30% your taking the plant beyond her threshold. Not that I can get my rh down to 30 even with my dehuey, Just curious. So far directly following a full water with 10% runoff I am seeing my rh climb to 60 but with dehuey its down to a tolerable 46-47 lights on and dehuey is set to keep it at 50 during lights out so it doesn’t run all day(lights on is my night). Any advice on getting that down to 40? less water more frequently? If so how would that affect me feeding so close to end and the crucial last two weeks where they chunk up?
About the only difference is some aroma is lost.

So it is basically sucking up terpenes and cannabinoids then. Ok good to know. Even at 45 the dehuey sucks up alot of scent from the air after me opening the tent first thing at lights on.
It’s evaporating away more volatile molecules that account for aroma. Potency is not affected. I would argue prolonged exposure to low RH will actually increase potency.

Yep, potency enhanced by low RH but they won’t be as juicy.

Finally able to get rh I want during day to 40% gonna try for 30 here in the home stretch. I also have dehuey setup on rh meter to kick in and out during lights out and I am trying to aim for 45 at night but if its running the dehuey the temp increase isn’t worth it. At night I am hitting 24.5 on a hot “day”, and their nights are around 20 degrees. So I am trying to keep that minimal difference in temps in the cycle the same or closer to 10% drop in these last 15 days or so. As I said one or two may take a week or so longer than the other 2. I also added another fan to keep the air moving. It is aimed at the wall to vounce back out versus blowing right on the plant as its directly up against it.
