Hey guys. Id like to know if anyone has experience with sativas. What i need to know is how much will a sativa calyx swell? I know they are more 'airy' than indica and im only usin a t5. I still have alot of long red pistils that ive read are supposed to shrink or 'recede into calyx' or whatever.
Thx for any help, ill try to get pics up asap.

Could anyone guesstimate how much longer I have for this plant? This is 73 days into flower (since showing pistils) and the motherfucker was sposed to be done at 50 days. It's a Black Skull Five-O (sativa) and I'm not seeing any amber trichs other than on the sugar leaves.

She looks just about done, maybe another week. Are you using CFLs?
I wanna say she is done, but the white pistils are throwing me off.

flowering doesn't begin until the buds start to form, not when the shows its sex (grows pistils). it looks like you have another couple weeks.

Thanks. Yeah, CFL's and LED. I started flushing a week ago and nearly all the leaves started looking terrible so I did a massive defoliation and am just ready for it to be DONE! lol I'll give it another week... I don't know why she keeps popping pistils.

That doesn't make any sense... "when the buds start to form" is way too subjective for that to be true. Some people start counting from the light switch.

I believe the breeders given time on a strain starts from the switch of veg into flower. Some say differently but I'd have some serious ripe plants if started my countdown at the first sign of flowers.

What do you think on this one? Northern Lights, 8-9 weeks flowering. I was thinking another week maybe?

You can chop now or wait another week. I would recommend looking at trichs. I am pretty sure it is ready.

give it another week. In soil you don't need to flush. Just reduce the nutes next time and you will be a happy camper.

yes......looks.good
:clap::clap: 55 days would be much better even 63 day will give you more yield. Try to get as much cloudy trichs as possible with little amber.
Both of you, veeeery helpful. I was worried you were gonna say that indica. But Ive done my homework so that it would truly be a waste if i didnt let it reach full potential. Ill post an update next week and see where Im at.
