I stopped feeding at 8 weeks and at ten they don't look ready. Should I feed again?

[rubmartinez51]

I have 3 ATFs (60% stativa) and 5 white widows (40% stativa). One of my white widows is shown here. Most of the hairs are brown but it has spurted new hairs. When I look at the trichomes throught the loop they all look clear and not all of them have heads. From what I have read, that tells me that they are not ready. However, the leaves are all yellowing and drying out. I haven't fed them for two weeks. Should I start feeding again? Please help.

The HPS-light could be fooling you.
Cut off a sample, then check the thrics with your scope on a white piece of paper. You'll then easily see what stage your thrics are at. Maybe more are milky than you think.
Then smoke the sample.
Then decide.

Thank you for your reply. I will try that. I've been told that I probably ruined my crop because I stopped feeding too soon when it was in its final grow stage and that is why my trichomes haven't developed properly. I hope that person is wrong otherwise I spent a lot of time and money for nothing. Have a nice day.

try to give us a better picture of the bud! like the main cola or something! i kinda thing there read BUT its hard to say when i cant see pic of the hole bud! 2 weeks with out nutes meening youve been giving just water? i would not start the nutes again AND best way to test sample i find is to cut a sample OF LEAFS GROWING OUT OF THE MAIN COLA! this way you dont damage any bud

if you think you're harvesting soon I wouldn't feed.

Tell those people your trichs developed quite nicely.

Lookin good danielson. Tell em piss off. Biggest thing that can possibly ruin bud is the way they are harv ested. Read up on that portion and do your research in that portion alone. Everything else is easy. You harvest and then cure right now then you have something.

I had decided to harvest 4 of the plants and continue to feed two of the ATFs and two of the white widows. However, after harvesting one of the white widows yesterday, I went into my grow room to gather another and found that there was still more growth on the buds from just yesterday. The buds are growing and spurting more green pistils. Faced with that, I was at a lost as to what to do. If the buds a spurting new and bigger growth, should I really be harvesting them? But then again, the leaving are drying at an alarming rate and they are ten weeks and two days today? Should I continue with the Harvest? Because I can't get good focus on the buds, they might look milky but when I look at them under the loop, they all look crystal clear. Here some pictures I took today.

I know that 10 weeks seems a lot of time and your buds are fat but to me your calyxes are not swollen how they should be I would wait until calyxes swell and trichs are white
But as I say in nearly all my posts I am No EXPERT
