hey guys had a rough period at work but am back)
This is how the girls look like after 48 hours i scrogged them
I feel am a bit late for the SSkunk as they seem advanced in the flowering and dont feel the will stretch alot except for the buds formation
But the 2 white widows are still growing lots of green so they should be occupying more space (=more buds 
)
Any feedback on the steps from now on like pruning and lolipoping ect…
Also a question about the fertz, when i prepare the formula and put in a bittle of water, the super phosphate doensnt disolve completly even though i shake the bottle every time i pass by it… Is that a problem??
Update!
It seems everything is fine so far!
Got the plants closer together under the light
Swithced to 1-2-4 formula since they are flowering
I dunno if they need 20 more days or 45 more days but either or looks theyare gonna make it! Hope there wont be any late stage bad surprises, Finger crossed !!

Here is another update guys, its my first indoor grow so i dont have a benchmark to judge but is seems evthg is fine
These are 2 SSkunk and 2 WWidow all autos, the SSkunks started flowering abt a week earlier and are ahead, they should finish abt 2 weeks earlier then the WW if its as advertised, i got these seeds from ILGM through my friend who was in the states and i ordered some more 5 days ago directly to my country. Finger crosssed they get through!
I noticed last time the tips of the WW yellowing and some of the leaves ( just 4-5) of SSkunk curling, so i used plain tap water for this watering without any nutes, the tip yellowing didnt go and progressed a tiny bit ( i guess its cz i didnt flush and that the nutes excess that was in the pots got reabrossed this time), but the plants overall health looks great to me. ( i have some pics attached)
What do u suggest in this case guys??? I calculated there is about 5 watering left for the SSkunks and about 6-7 for the WW
Should i flush?
Should i continue watering with plain water 1 more time?
Should use again nutes at 1/3 strength of last time??
PS: day 19 flowering for the SSkunk and day 14 for the WW
And i added two 50Watts Leds warm light 3000K to help with the buds in the back
Please advise!!

I am estimating the time of flowering since they first started budding, which occured about this 12th of March and you can take a look at the previous picturs in this blog and you can tell me if am right. They germinated on the 12th of february.
According to my estimation and their advertised flowering period ( 48days for the SS and 56 for the WW) the SS have about 25 days left
The SS are less visible then the WW buds in the pics, they are situated on the top left and bottom right corner.
So far there have not been any trichomes production for the 2 WW yet and just barely for the SS, but i guess they will start now because i can feel and smell the aroma of the buds when i brush or touch them which was barely existing a few days ago
Is everything alright? Am i doing anything wrong? Will i smoke my own grown exquisite weed on my Bday which is on the 15th of May ?!! 
Please advise

Not trying to burst your bubble buddy but with cure time an all you will be a Lil late for b-day smoke
If everything is doing ok, and the girls live up to expectation i Guess i wont be nagging About not fully cured buds then
No really guys what do you think about all my apprehensions that i posted above? Should i change or adjust anything?
Also i find the top of my WW coolas depressed most of the time, especially the ones in the back. What i mean is the leaves that are on the top of the bud are most of the time wiltered like thirsty plants
They go back to healthy facing upward position just after the 4 hours dark period within 3 hours of lighting till 15hours lighting then they wilter down
The plants ate not thirsty, this happens all the time even when i just water them
The plants are not too close to the light, this happens more with the plants that are farthest from it
The fan leaves and the bottom of the plant are doing super at all time with very green healthy leaves hugging the light
Here is a picture attached, what do u think is the cause? Is it normal? Should i take action?
your WW started flowering on the 12th of Mrch mine started on the 11th. 56 days for WW would put me about May 6th then add drying and curing. I can’t smoke until the later part of May so I am pretty sure mine will be done by then, My BD is the 23rd of May so that is my target date

Very very nice looking plant my friend!
Thats an update pic of the girls
The WW buds are starting to have their characteristic shape but still no heavy production of trichs nor smell
The SSkunk buds are fatning up, they have about 24 days to go, decent size, smell is there but can be stronger, trichs still poor
Am hoping there will be an exponentiel production of trichs for both of them very soon.
Last feeding I added some coconut sap honey as i read that sugar can be good for the plant through feeding the micro organisms in the soil…lets see…
Temps hitting the limit of 30 degrees celsius at the top of my canopy, is that ok?
Evthg is looking good, feedback for improvement always appreciated

Dude, they look great! Im a newbie but I think you have closer to 4 weeks to go. Don’t get in a hurry. Just feed them what they need when they need it and let them tell you when their ready!
Keep us posted!
Thank you Broda! I got pretty thrilled up myself when i uncovered them this morning : D
From what am seeing and reading online i am expecting a doubling to tripling in bud size : D but dont wanna get the expectations too high
From 4 days the WW buds are starting to have a slick starry look but still no significant smell or trichs but i hope will change in a week or so
Such a hard wait for the final produce
I started a 3 crop at the time to cut down between the waiting time between harvests.
And Correction: in the 3rd pic the WW are on the right and the SSkunk on the left 
guess been sitting with them too long

Guys i need help as am paranoing about overshooting the correct time to flush the girls
I understood that ill know when to harvest by the trichomes colour, but my dilemna is how to estimate how they will turn out in 2 weeks from the flush?
In short how to manage not to flush too late or too early??? The buds are still growing and have white pistils mostly, but what puzzles me is that on the same plant you have buds with almost mojority of pistils brown and the other half still very white
I dont have a microscope yet but here are some close up pics as best as i could
The middle picis the superskunk and 2 others the white widow
Is growing fun…keeps you on your toes…lol
Your going to be fine…just relax and regroup.
You can order a magnifing glass on amazon and revive it in plenty of time
Here is a link to some you need 60x100. OK. There not expensive at all.
I start my flush when I see at least 25% amber. I shoot for couch lock…lol it just all depends on what your looking for as an high. The more amber the higher you get…lol

Hope this helps

Just a comment on your grow. Looks like you are doing a great job on it! One thing that is most important about growing is that the plant can’t read calendars ! Don’t get caught up in dates, it will drive you crazy !
The plant will tell you when it is ready. As garrigan62 said, watch the tricomes to decide when they are ready. There are several other things that you can use to determine that best day, tricomes always did me well. Since you are a newer grower, not a bad idea to invest some time and read up on the process the plant goes through to finish. Robert’s grow manual is a great source of information. That should help you out a lot.
Remember that the plant always tells us it is ready, we just have to know what we are seeing to react. Best luck on your finish. Just sit back and let the plant do the work. The end product is worth the wait to get the best harvest you can. Jerry
Hello guys!!
Am back after long blackout, am sorry i didnt continue this journal till the end product but i got some heavy things on my hands back then. Ill just say that the end result was pretty disappointing to me, the buds were. Big, lovely and and very frosty trichoms n all but the smoke and the high were very very disappointing, i dont know if it was a strain problem ( i had 2 different ones) or bcz they were autos that was their max potential but yeah ive grown weed indoors n outdoors before and i had amazing results.
Anyway am back with an outside grow this time!! About 14 different strains at the same time!!!
and thats is quite a thrill to see each girl take its form with different characteristics and traits hehehe
All is going very well But as to all good things, a problem is flashing in the horizon, i had one plant leaves ( diesel) that started to turn yellow from the inside out, it is progressing from the bottom up and from the fan leaves to the other bud leaves, it was one plant at first but now a second one is showing the same symptoms. I am attaching a few pics, could you gimme ur opinion knowing i am in earpy 3rd week of flowering.

Haha many thanks bro!! I have a ridiculous OCD when it comes to my girls
Alright am gonna add epsom salts and watch what happens. A question though, why is there an mag difficiency?? The soil am using is very rich, I am adding all the nutrients from a complete source ( picture attached), i was even wondering that maybe i am putting too much nutrients and some are locking out others… cz i have also on my diesel plant burnt leaves edges on the new leaves(upload://lA7egEyT9YaOYtdiWSAFEKqkrqV.jpg)
