I’d wait if the top is moist. The Moto to go by is… less frequent deeper watering cycles. That goes for a lot of plants including turf grass in your yard. This allows the soil profile to become relatively saturated, which supports even moisture for all the roots to have a chance to drink and will train the roots to fill out the whole area. If you just water a little bit more frequently the roots will look for that water and stay there. So maybe try two bottles and wait two or three days. Unless she’s drinking a ton which will happen at times, sometimes drinking up that water fast if the light intensity and room temp is high enough. But that’s a result of rapid growth and does need to be pretty warm, like 80-85 degrees and ample light intensity. In that situation she’s drinking the water and transpiring the moisture through her leaves. Pretty neat! The yellowing lower leaves are typical in this phase for soil growing. I generally experience some and I don’t generally lay off the nutrition until I have about 2-3 weeks left. I feed very lean though because I like the way the buds taste and smoke when grown with a lean style. I also use a lot of Lacto Bacillus and other ferments… and those things really help the roots find every last bit of nutrients in the soil.I haven't yet watered today, but only got it ready just in case, I normally lift up the fabric pot and hold it in the air several or more times a day so that the lowest roots get air, or wait it's still a bit moist so maybe I should wait until tomorrow? Edit: I put in more soil, apperantly the upper soil in the fabric pot is still moist but on the inside and the bottom soil in the bucket is almost completely dry mainly on the bottom part where so many white healthy looking roots are hanging out as I added more soil beneath them but not too much and the soil around the fabric pot was only moist at certain points, like a moist wet but some of it is also dry, also a higher fan leaf now has a small yellow brown spot still being small though but the rest if it is pure normal green, the sugar leaves are all dark green and the higher fan leaves are a bit lighter green but perfect color and the lower fan leaves are the yellow drying out brown ones, so therefore I don't know: Do I water today maybe just another bottle of that spray bottle or do it tomorrow?
Yours is at the "don't harvest" stageInteresting photo here: View attachment 18983309
If anyone wants to have a go at letting me know which stage mine's or theirs it at, it'd be fun.... It'd be a great game/discuss as well, however this pheno might be different, as it has re-flowerings and so on, even though mine probably won't with the 9 hours I've been going this whole run, or most of it that is.... Yes I know, different strains different rules, but I'd like to try this as a how far it's gotten "thing" (game maybe) idk... just trying out something fun...
I knew I was good at predicting what people might say next... I will have to argue though that despite the uploaded pictures showing one thing, in reality mine look like between level one and two (stage) more like a two.... My trichomes in real life definitely don't look that freakishly clear like they do on the uploaded photos here or especially on the "when to harvest post" on the first stage.... However... the pistals on mine do look a lot more like stage one I'll agree with that... And this being Killer a5 Haze it usually I would guess maybe has a different rule on how far it has to go to consider on what stage it is on, so that part I'd have to agree, but still I find this to be an interesting topic... For all readers, just so it's clear, I don't want to have to harvest it early, time is pushing me, which yes I still have ... I haven't fully explained about what my travel is about for anonymous reasons, but that's why I was so irritated and agitated when my order lagged back when I was still "spamming" on the original Killer a5 Haze thread... Because I wanted to start as early as possible due to exactly what I'm talking about....Yours is at the "don't harvest" stage
Exactly the reason why I bought a tripod heheKiller a5 Haze 60 days old View attachment 18983351 View attachment 18983352 View attachment 18983353 View attachment 18983354 View attachment 18983355 View attachment 18983356
Never in my life had I had such a hard time taking pictures, my hands are shaking, but there's another reason for that, I tried my best to take a picture of the trichomes, and every time I wasn't successful somehow I started shaking more due to holding up the camera for so long... I'm still disappointed that I didn't really manage to capture the trichomes, in certain pictures I even supposedly zoomed in the camera and it glitched or something....
Bro honestly it's also disappointing because these pictures could've been so amazing and actually show the real thing as it is (even though it's really early I know), and instead it turned out extremely blurry, and even the pictures with the light on (the first ones) also don't show the trichomes as well as they are in reality....Exactly the reason why I bought a tripod hehe
I knew you were gonna say that.... But yeah well no, I wanted more accurate pictures so it's clearer for example at which stage it's at, because the trichomes look like at stage two but the pistals at stage one, and some people harvest Killer at stage 4.5.... And since I'm still here, not on my travel thank God for that... I felt like this could give me better insight, but then again I see that you're helping me not harvest too early just in case I decide to which I do actually appreciate.... No I didn't mean to say that it's ready to harvest lol, I'd have to be gullible to believe that... I was just saying that the pictures don't show accuracy as much as real time does.... Pictures shows a stage one, reality shows a mix of two and one.... Out of those four... However I do agree that it needs to look white and big with buds all over and red pistals everywhere, I've seen it before on others .. And even then people wait longer, so no I know that it still has more ways to go don't worry...You can take all the pictures you want but it doesn't change the reality its nowhere near ready.
The article you posted says all you need to know.
The buds are still growing.
I've been looking for one thinking that we had one but then remembered that it was at another place where I no longer live, actually one out of the two that I used to, wasn't really mine but yeah.... I need to find the time to search for one.... Meaning like actually go far from here to find one somewhere in the city maybe... What kind would I need though?You got a microscope bro?
Your right there the buds are starting to fill in for a big donkey dick cola.wow the genetics on that plant really show no matter what happens. you keep her alive that should be decent stuff.
Dont worry by the end of this month yours will be ready for an early harvest before you leave.I knew you were gonna say that.... But yeah well no, I wanted more accurate pictures so it's clearer for example at which stage it's at, because the trichomes look like at stage two but the pistals at stage one, and some people harvest Killer at stage 4.5.... And since I'm still here, not on my travel thank God for that...

Okay so does taking an early sample really slow down the rest of the plant's development? Or does that depend on how how early and how it's taken? I'm talking about two early samples, one earlier than the other... Not now of course but yeah.... Wait you told me that most people (meaning in the world) harvest their weed way too early which is the reason why most people get stoned instead of high, you didn't actually mean that they harvest nearly this early did you? I've smoked Sativas and Sativa dominant strains in the past that were missing the complete spectrum of trichomes everywhere on them and the Amber pistals around them which weren't even there probably chopped another week after this stage... That would be freaky if they were harvested that early.... Because yes they were very Racey and energetic indeed.... No sleep for three days lol That's scary actually if it's also true that commercial growers chop Sativas that early because I've heard that too. Not saying it's true everywhere though but, not good for the people who buy you know...
Edit: I've seen many a strains that have had no resemblance of harvested when ripe being sold in the past, so if they were Sativa dominant then that explains why some people would freak out from them, meaning they were too Racey... And probably would've been a lot trippier and dreamy if they had been harvested much later on time which I think is a global issue because how then will people who don't grow weed, grow up enjoying it properly... Honestly though in my country unfortunately there are many people who sell useless hemp like Indicas slash Ruderalasis (idk how that's spelled) that actually infact were harvested at around week two or three of flowering or earlier, and they're not cheap either, US was 10 bucks for a gram, now that's extremely cheap, no we're talking twice that price for 0.25 of a gram if you're lucky... And if you're even luckier you could find certain people (assuming that they're not locked away already) for even more expensive prices, a decent gram of 60% Indica and 40% Sativa, and some may or may not have been harvested on time which is even more rare but that's sad.... There are cities however or towns where I fortunately no longer live at where they'd have these extremely shitty Indica type hemps with probably 3% or 5% THC if luckily maybe 1% CBD give or take, harvested extremely early, not dried probably, not cured properly and sprayed with all of these chemicals that basically make you hallucinate some real shitty images and sounds, instead of blasting you off into time and space oneness with the universe and the soul and mind with trippy psychedelic cartoony visuals and auditory distortions which become as one like real Cannabis (especially Sativa) actually does, and where you don't hallucinate, unless it's just your own vivid thoughts but rather you see the universe and world around you much more as it is, on a higher level, in a much more colorful, psychedelic and altered magical but cartoon like way, but without the stupid hallucinatory images of dancing dolls made out of people you hate or hearing them say pathetic insults and jokes because that's what laced shitty weed would do in those places I've lived before from the dealers that also sold them very expensively, I mean seriously what's the point of paying a lot of money for a tiny amount of non psychedelic weed, that's neither trippy or magical or consciousness expanding but instead makes you see things or hear things that not only aren't there but are stupid as well Like that shouldn't even belong in this world, I'm sorry for this rant but I hate what some people sell in those places, luckily our city ain't that that bad, but it's still mostly low quality
I guess that's to motivate me to not harvest her yet, don't worry I'm not about to do it yet... No I'm not like Joe BidenIt’s at the, don’t touch it stage. Let it grow. Let her mature. You don’t touch 12 year olds right?
