No, donāt see any balls, just swollen calyxes. This is what you want to look out for, the male flowers that open up and spew pollen like the one on the left is doing, the one on the right hasnāt opened up yet.

I feel like I did see that, it was like a cluster of em and then when I pinched it off I noticed one was brown and hard like an itty bitty seed @Hellraiser
It is possible that your plant is a slight hermie and could have pollinated herself then. I sometimes find a very small number of seeds on a harvested plant and never even saw the male flower that caused it. Slight hermies arenāt too bad, they donāt ruin the buds and only make a very small number of seeds (free feminized seeds). Like earlier in your grow when I thought there was that suspicious looking growth/preflower that at first made me think it was going to be a male but then she started throwing out white pistils.
Okay okay! Good to know, I was like she looks beautiful Iām going to enjoy smoking her either way
@Hellraiser but that helps me put my mind at ease a little bit, I still have about a half gallon of just RO water PHed and I will water the rest of it the next time I need to water just to give it more of a break from all the nutrients then I will go half on the cal nitrate. Iām thinking Iāll flower for a total of 60 days estimated give or take a few days so I will start my 2 week flush around the 45th day in flower. Just to give me an idea when to stop using nutrients. Iāll probably have just one or 2 waterings with nutrients based off that estimate. Sound like a plan?
Sounds good. On cutting back on the calcium nitrate, want to look out for any brown dots/spots showing up on leaves as that will be a sign of a calcium deficiency and will want to up the calcium nitrate if that happens, also be on the lookout for yellowing/paleness of lower leaves which will be a sign of a nitrogen deficiency, which can also be fixed by increasing the calcium nitrate. Those are 2 things youāre cutting down on - calcium and nitrogen.
@Hellraiser i havenāt watered yet since the first water only
Hereās a couple of the leaves I see the most discoloration on
Itās quite normal for lower leaves to discolor a bit as you get closer to harvest as the plant moves mobile nutrients around to fuel the bud growth. Time to start feeding again.
@Hellraiser i was thinking about removing said looking leaves should I remove them or just keep em?
My thinking is instead of trying to keep that leaf alive if I remove it all the nutrients that wouldāve gone to the leaf will go upwards towards the bud sites.
Well since i have a half gallon of just water left I can go ahead and weigh out half the jacks nutrients I normally feed and mix it then of course, cal-nit I will 1/4 it. Iāll probably do a full tablespoon of molasses as itās getting closer and closer to the final feedings if that sounds good.
Yeah you could lose those leaves no problem, I donāt have any leaves on the lower half of my plants by mid flowering as they arenāt getting much light anyway. Your feeding plan sounds fine.
Nice! Thank you sir will keep everyone updated!
Gave her a final trim. Sat down looked at all the fan leaves shaded and this is what I ended up with, will water tonight with regiment stated above.
Tonight I fed her, Ppm was 860 and the ph was 6.48 that was going in. I donāt measure runoff as I donāt see any issues and I use recharge so it would be crazy anyways
Welcome!
Iām pretty new here too, so ima listen in & try to learn a little something. ![]()
No problem @Pjivie follow along!
@dbrn32 @MaD-VapoR @Davyg check this out! Looking good, Iām thinking I can start my 2 week flush I have like a little bit of of my watering mix from last time. The silica and molasses and jacks, then Iāll begin the flush if all are in agreement
Your pistils are still white, to me that is sign that they have little ways to go yet.
I usually donāt comment on flushing plants much, but if thatās what you plan on doing, 2 weeks is likely longer than you need to do it.
I was thinking that too tbh but itās weird I feel thereās a quite a bit of cloudy trichomes wouldnāt you say @dbrn32
