Looking good Topshelf,
so if my calculations are correct these plants should now be end of week 7, start of week 8?
However if i remember correctly you got these beans from bag weed, so you aint sure of the strain???
In that case you could possibly be flowering for another 3 weeks or best case scenario they maybe ripe for harvest anytime now?
Keep an eye on your pistils you want most of them 75% to be red/brown, but if you have a microscope take a look at those nice looking THC glands/Crystals through it, if the glands are clear then it is immature, if the glands are milky its half matured, if they are amber then they are mature; again you want to see around 75% of the Trichomes amber for optimal results.
As for the nutes, soz you aint had much help with that man, but it looks like you have done a good job.
You can mix different nutes, however a company will have the best tried and tested nutes to compliment each other and these should also include a bloom stimulator with higher P and K ratios as we have said. If i were you i would have added a lil something extra like P.K. 13/14 or Top Max just to push thier capabilities of sugar production that lil further, if you had done that you may have had a fatter more Crystal covered crop. That said if the P.K. 13/14 or simalr was too much then your plants would have let you know by burning slightly at the tips of the leaves, at which point you could have stopped adding the solution.
Anyways thats my two cents worth topshelf but i am a noob grower too and therefore i am still learning. I will prolly be harvesting mine 2mrw or the day after.
The 2 biggest things i have learned from my grow are;
Do not be afraid of your plants, you can be firm with them and they can be trained, topped stressed etc and can still produce a nice crop.
The other thing i have learned is to go VERY easy on the feeding and learn from your plants appearance.
So i hope to see some nice pics of your harvest soon topshelf.
REMEMBER only feed/flush with pure3 water for at least last week to get excess nutes and stimulators out, therefore enhancing the quality/flavour/taste of the smoke.
PEACE :)
LGM.
