Weâve entered week eight, one of the final weeks, since the genetics I chose are listed as **8â9 weeks from seed to harvest**.
I hope weâre close to the end, because the plants are becoming more and more stressed and I still canât understand what the problem is. It almost seems like some kind of nutrient uptake lockout.
For now, the maturation of the flowers doesnât seem to be compromised, and the trichomes are starting to develop a nice color, although the buds still look a bit sparse.
As with last week, Diesel is holding up well, even though she is also starting to show some leaf issues. I just hope this is due to the flowering stage.
The others, however, seem to be getting worse, especially Sunset. Wedding Cake is maturing well, although the spots keep reappearing and some leaves are starting to yellow there too.
Sunset, on the other hand, seems to have slowed down in maturation, and the leaves are getting worse and worse. Iâm limiting defoliation because I donât want to add more stress to a plant that is already suffering quite a lot.

**End of W8 Update:**
Thanks to the help of this amazing community, Sunset and Wedding have recovered really well!
Diesel, on the other hand, is still struggling, but due to my lack of experience I canât really tell whether itâs just because itâs reaching the end of its cycle, or if the care I gave didnât bring the results I was hoping for.
The buds seem pretty mature now, theyâre getting richer in terpenes and reaching a good size, but Iâm also wondering whether the treatments I gave this plant may have made the situation worse.
Iâll update you again in the next few days! And if you have any advice, guys, drop it in the comments â itâs always more than welcome!
