Ok so i have two plants in my closet, hydro, 400w HPS and a buncha CFLs. I have had soooo many problems its not even funny. Not to get into that- but the most important problem was spider fucking mites. I used a Fox farm cyrsanthinum(sp?) oil pesticide to kill them but the damage was done. Since then, between the shock and damage from the mites, my big plant has lost about 90% of its leaves. The small one has lost a lot of leaves but is now starting to look a lot healthier and is starting to bud more. so my question is- should i harvest the big one now? what about the nutrients? i dont want to stop the smaller ones growth but i dont want the big one to taste like shit. The big one is basically dead, but the buds have still been growing some so i just let it go and tried to keep it healthy. Im around 1300 ppm, yeah i know its a little high... so yeah i need opinions, harvest big one now? wait to flush? will it taste bad if i dont?



Scrawny i know... this is the big one.



The small one. much healthier but still not healthy at all.



smaller plant with a good bud that seems to be still growing.



bud from the big plant- you can see how the leaves are dying around the bud now which is what worries me. depressing i know...



again from the big plant- you can see the orange hairs and the new white ones growing in.

opinions?

im not very experienced so forgive me if im wrong but i reckon ur buds cld get bigger still, during flowering i think leaves tend to get yellow and fall off naturally which wont help that u have lost a lot of leaves already but dont worry if theyre yellowing i think. the leaves take a lot of light in and buds get bigger though. are u and have u fertlised recently? what are the trichromes like?
