also FYI those pics were taken around 7-23-10 or so, and not posted for several days. so by now those pics are 11-12 days old.
Those are seeds, that doesnt mean its ready.your feeding too much N. and not enough P for that ratio....... thats why you plant is leafy, still kinda green leafed, and the buds look weird.... those calyxes tell the story of a plant that almost ready for harvest.. they are pretty damn swelled up... still wait a week, or even 2... matter fact if i was you i would flush for at least 10 days and harvest
no, they aren't done, and, likely there are problems.wait, so is THIS what should swell up in the last couple weeks?
i was under the impression the whole bud will swell up and be more bulky in the last couple weeks. those circled things have been swollen for weeks.
This is my 2nd grow. 1st grow was small and in my bedroom at my parents house a couple years ago. Got about 12 grams of weird tasting (but totally killer) sinsemilla from 4 small plants under a 4' fluoro from bagseed. I assumed that not pollinating them had the largest effect on quality since it was stronger than anything i'd ever purchased (which contained the seeds I planted for it). If I got the same quality out of the 2nd grow (but on a larger scale) I would be TOTALLY satisfied.no, they aren't done, and, likely there are problems.
let me venture here.
Are you using Miracle Grow Soil? Is there any PERLITE in it? If so, what percentage? What types of lights are you using? What type of Nutes are you using? WHat is the NPK ratio???
Are you aware of what MICRO-NUTRIENTS are? If you don't have a fully balanced nutrient mix, this is what your buds will do.
I would guess you are using CFL's (no orange light in pics)
bottom line, i got some at ~4weeks and they are EASILY twice to three times the size (bud wise)
Conclusion: You did something wrong, at 7 weeks, they aren't going to "fatten up" from where they are now. Not trying to be mean, but helpful.
Next time. Use HPS light. Use a soil that is FULL of perlite, and then ADD more. Use a FULL nutrient line. AND finally, get better genetics from seeds. Those look like some bagseed.
Bag seeds can be iffy, you dont know that it was from a female that got pollinated from a male, it could be from a hermie that pollinated itself, thus the high hermie ratio.
Bummer dude about the seeds but on the bright side at least you have seeds to start another grow
Exactly!i wouldnt grow those again... not only is is schwagg, but also hermie!
No they cannot go outside. I check the trichs every 2-3 days. They are still all clear. I picked a tiny bud that looked the most advanced off so I could get a more stable shot with the mini microscope and maybe 5% looked a translucent amber color, the rest looked like little glass mushrooms and such.can you take them outside for a week or so? whens the last time you checked the trichs? are they all still clear?
