Strip or no strip?

They look good for mid flower. Might be me but it does have a lot of orange hairs for mid flower.

They still have a month of late flower/fattening to go.
I do hope so! I know everyone can get impatient but normally they get bigger by the day but these seem slow? It is a 50/50 so hopefully the weight might come later on. There are some light amber hairs but still plenty of white and trics are mainly clear with very fee milky

1-3 weeks in my experience so I just use 2 weeks as my average
Okay thats good to know I’m going to probably run to 9/10 at least so we’ll see how they go over the next few. Thank you for the help! I hope they come through as they seem like nice quality dense buds

What size bucket? I know it isn’t exactly coco but I noticed tremendous difference with pot size and starting in the final container after solo cup.

I had about 50/50 orange hairs at like day 56. I count from day of flip and consider 2.5-3 weeks stretch.

My last run with photos did not have bud sites at end of nodes or preflowers everywhere at week 2 or 2.5, unless I miscounted days, I think that explains why some wait until it has preflowers in every node.

So the small bucket might give smaller yield as 1-2 gallons in coco don’t make very big indica plants,

What nutes are you using at 2.0 - 3.0 ec? Just curious, that seems harsh. I just created my own feed to not exceed 1.4ec total with tap.

I am in DWC so its hydroponics for me. I am using 20L buckets and the roots are big but still have plenty of room, i am using Athena nutes. Have always been happy with there nutes since I started using them but i think i may have pushed it too hard and now im just chasing my tail

Woah, ok, hense some of the concern. 5 Gallons for me would make one plant fill a 3x3 easy!

That run was very short bushy plants like yours but smaller as they were 1-2 gallons.

The 50/50 orange hairs do not make sense either so soon.

I see time to time though that growers stop growing strains due to the short, stubby yield. Could be that.

That and a fast finisher if it reallly is working on late flower/ripe already. Those strains tend to be dank as heck though!

Yeah hahaha thats why im wondering if there is something going on, i have some really large stems in some too but I guess I’ll just have to ride it out and see what happens over the next few weeks

Chopped at just over 9 weeks with 10% amber trics. Pics taken at harvest. Definitely some of the densest, frostiest bud ive grown but downside being bud size and yield. Running cuts again to see if i can get any better results as I’ve added a new led

I am on week 14 flower so the quick finish of your crop sounds nice too. I do not see any white hairs, seems like it was chopped at a good time.
