Starting to struggle in flowering. First grow, not sure where to go from here

[OldNailPounder]

@MamaT , I’m starting a new tent as well this weekend, Best of wishes to both of us.
I’m using 70/30 Coco.

One of the main things I’ve learned, is to let it dry enough before you water again, not desert dry, but as dry as what soil would feel like fresh from the bag. Usually takes a couple to a few days. You should be able to feel weight difference.
This is my first grow, so I’m still learning everyday, but so far so good.
Wish you the best of luck!! Will you do a grow journal?

@MamaT welcome to the family my friend happy growing

Not struggling my boy just nature they don’t always stay green around flower is when the lower leaves start dying and even some of the top canopy it’s just because it’s not getting enough light your girl looks good and you can for sure pluck the bottom of your plants to make the plant focus on the top buds

[MamaT]

Thank you!
I have Fox Farm ocean blend, worn castings and perlite. Mars hydro light setup, keeping rent around 73-75 degrees and humidity around 55%.

[MamaT]

Thank you! Happy to be here!

Hi guys, I know what I’m supposed to be looking for to determine when she’s ready to be harvested, just wondering if anyone experienced has a rough idea on how long she may have left?

[Reed71]

Still see white pistols so little longer @Samsta my friend happy growing

[Samsta]

How much longer do you guys think she has? I can’t see any amber trichomes but the plant seems to be fading and going yellow, so will they eventually go amber or is this as far as I’m gna get her?

[OldNailPounder]

Hang in there. It’s going to be another week or 2.
The white pistols are not done ripening yet.

[Samsta]

Ok Thankyou!
Any idea why the fading leaves are drying and crisping up? Is it normal at the end or is something up?
But yet, the buds that are less developed are still a healthy green colour, no crisping at all.
I just don’t want to ruin it at the last stretch, everything has been the same, haven’t done anything different, except for a bit more water at watering times when she was flowering.
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated

[Samsta]

And should I take the yellow crispy leaves off?

[Reed71]

@Samsta yes you can take them leaves off my friend happy growing

I had some Gorilla Zkittlez autos doingvthe same, most of the leaves got crispy and I kept pulling them off. In the end they looked like a couple of cactae standing lol.

Still they produced the best smoke so far!
