Final Stages of flowering question....

Dank.... I'm going to take that as a huge compliment....lol.... NO lst.... topped her once... thats it!!! I can't believe the buds that are growing... I mean there are 2 obvious monsters... but the rest are not far behind at all...
 
Day 63 of 12/12~
Decided to take another pic using the bud light bottle to show scale... still no amber trichs... but I'm keeping a close eye on her!!!

Definite "bulking up" going on since the last pic:)
 
You are doing excellently my friend. Remember, Trichomes turning amber means they are degrading, that's why most people only let them get somewhat amber so they have a point of reference that they are complete. Another sign that they are complete is when 80-100% of trichomes turn milky white. This particular strain is best when trichomes are milky white rather than amber. It's predominantly indica so milky white is what you want. Amber is mostly for sativa dominant strains. Also, if you can do it that well with Fox Farm Trio, I would love to see you grow these with Advanced Nutrients. I started with the trio and now use AN and my buds were twice the size of the one in your day 63 pic. You have a real talent and now it's time to bring it out. Your most best asset is that you are patient.

Also, I always start the flush at the very end of week 8 and continue to the end of week 10 or if I'm going all the way to 11 weeks I end it at the end of week 11. Water only, no mollasses or anything, Those are considered sugars/carbohydrates and if used during flush time can stunt maturation. Keep up the excellent work. Check out my guy Koma on youtube. Search for Komagrows and oregon kush. They are the same person; these vids will take your growing to another level. You'll see. Pm me to let me know what you think after you check him out.
 
Day 70 of flower~

I took a few pics for you cannabis philosopher.... I dont have a macro on my camera...aka my phone...lol!! but I'm pretty sure you'll be able to see what's going on:) I would say that MOST of the trichs are clear but def seeing some cloudy ones as well.... and as always.... ty SO much for all of your amazing information!

Excellent Work. Amazing. In one of your pics the hairs are mostly brown. That one is nearly ready for harvest within a week. The others I would wait until another 4 days, then pull them. The smoke will be excellent. I also notice some fox-tailing in the buds and that is more than likely due to high temps. Fox tailing is basically how you see some really high calyxes sticking up past the others like that. This strain is not the foxtailing type so if it does do that it's letting you know it's too warm in the garden. But yours are not bad at all. An excellent job growing you did.
 
yes, 9 days into flush right now :) I was listening to you...lol! and btw those pics are all from one plant.... so I'll have to time something in the middle of your prediction for harvest...lol!! but yes... I can tell it's getting close to crunch time... or chop time may be a better way to put it...lol!
 
I did.... and it made me nervous....lol!!! the trichs on his Romulan Diesel made me feel like my plant doesnt have nearly the trichomes it should...lol!!! omg those plants were insane!!
 
perhaps someone has already said this... I only read the first 3 pages... But if they get really big quickly it doesn't necessarily mean they will get extra big by the end. It just means that they are getting to the end faster. When a plant is listed as a 7-9 wk finisher. It really is just a general window. I've had 7-9 wk finishers finish in 6.5 weeks. I currently have a 9-11 wk finisher just about done at 7.5 weeks.

seems that since you are flushing someone may have already told you that.

He used multiple methods to get his results and he is constantly improving. What brings out most of that sugar on the plant is the bud candy from advanced nutrients. I started out using the Fox Farm Trio and the results were good. After switching to Advanced Nutrients my plants started to look just like Koma's. That's why I was telling you to give it a shot. You can get the Grow Micro Bloom Base Nutrients for no more than $60 for a liter ($60 gets you a liter of 'each' grow, micro, and bloom). Be sure to mix the Micro in the water first, then Grow, and then Bloom. This will make sure the Micronutrients are fully dissolved. If it's mixed out of order, the other stuff necessary for healthy plants will get locked out. The bud cand should be $30 or around that area for a liter. Give this a shot. I promise you will enjoy.

Oh, Koma also has vids on his other channels that will show you how he gets those results. here is a vid from his oregonkush channel: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FNuanYP7sb8 Here is another vid that shows you the results of using his method: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DmOrWmvqamY&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL

Your plant will be super potent though. The bud candy is a sweetner that brings out the trichomes and improves the smell of your plants. Let me know if you have any questions.
 
just a note Philosopher..... used bud candy weeks 2-6 of flowering:) I was bored and went to the hydro store... always have to buy SOMEthing....lol!!

That's how I use to be. Couldn't leave the store without something. LOL. Bud candy works best when used with Grow-Micro-Bloom rather than with Fox Farm Trio.
