Yes the 4th pic is a secondary and that is why that looks less ripe. The 5th and last pic is a good example of what I'm talking about. There is some amber deep in those bud, and swallowed up hairs. But then you can see that new layer of calyx forming with all new white hairs. Is that normal...

That is the odd thing. It is like layers. The buds did swallow up a lot of hairs and seemed to be on the way to done, then it started making all new hairs with growth accelerating later in the flowering cycle. Maybe that is just how it goes. I haven't tried flushing yet with any plant...

T5 all the way. I mix the bulb colors depending on stage. In this little 2' x 2' grow tent, I had a 400wat MH/HPS that was way too powerful. It was always too hot and I think the light was too intense as the plants all turned white (I read that too much light can basically bleach the plants...

Here's the pics

Also, I don't know the strain. I pretty sure it came from some awesome stuff though (a very skunky sativa and the kind where you are lucky to find any seed at all)

I'm not exactly a noob having grown successfully a couple times in the past but it has been several years. I started with 4 sprouts (paper towel method) but one is dead so now have 3 left. I transplanted each to a small 6 oz plastic cup with 4 slits in the bottom for drainage. 50/50...
