they still have a lot of swelling to do bro.. no worries..

you say your at week 5?? by week 8 or 9 they will more than likely be about double the size they are now.. or close to..

if you can get some unsulfurd molasses and use that to feed them it will help out... both fatten up the buds and densen them up too... about a tablespoon per gallon..

also i would run your nutes up to almost the very last minute before harvest.. flush it VERY VERY well once with water, and then harvest... that way you have the longest amount of time using nutes as you can to maximize the growth out of her...

otherwise your girls look great!! i am growing a bluehash plant.. which is a cross of blueberry and california hash... hope mine turn out as nice as yours look..

keep it up and good harvesting

the hairs have nothing to do with harvest.. go by trich color, or after you have harvested enough, you can go by bud look.. but the pistil colors dont mean anything in the scheme of things..

and even if it says 45 to 50 days you have to remember that that means 45 to 50 days until you can first harvest.... so 49 days is 7 weeks.. let it go for 1 extra week to week 8.. and you'll be plesantly happy.. or even harvest everything except 1 plant and let it go the extra week and see the difference it makes over the others.. use that for later knowledge..

Tru Dat. I have a plant that is 3 weeks in to flower and has 75% red hairs for some odd reason. It's an unknown bag seed.

I'm growing the same strain (Dinafem California Hash) at the moment and noticed the same thing. Buds are really small compared to other strains flowering for the same time. The California Hash are also using less water than all the others. I can go 7-9 days without watering. Where with other strains growing in the same space i need to water every 2-3 days.

But true.... they will still get bigger. Buds thicken out during it's last couple of weeks.

Just to give you an idea of how big they can get in a short amount of time.
