Red hair but no trichs!

DSC09556.JPGDSC09558.JPGDSC09560.JPGDSC09561.JPGDSC09562.JPG

Week 14(5-6 veg/9 flow) and I have 90% red hairs on the upper 90% of the plant. Now she's Pineapple Kush and I've seen pics/vid of this strain and they can get pretty reddish and purplish in general. But I'm a little concerened I have no trichs yet. It is my first grow so I guess I'm a little anxious, plus I wanna sublease my apt in two weeks and I need to wrap this grow up. Any first hand advice on a great crystal popper that actually really works fast or is this just a pipe dream? Should I be concerned that she's all redding out in the hairs but not a nare trich? That's my real question I suppose! hanks in advance! Plus I really wish she had glossy leaves.
FYI- I just got back from a 10 day trip and my girl was watering and such. I thank her alot but unfortunately she doesn't give her the love I do...a little jealous I do believe :-P... I def don't blame her! I'm back now and I believe i can get those leaves to green back up and her to look healthy soon.
I'm used curly CPF's for the first 3 weeks veg then finished that cycle with 400w MH. Then I went 400 HPS till now. Thinking about adding some those aquarium lights.

I hope thats enough info to gets some good pointers erybody!

Looks like long-term overfeed to me...which will cause a serious decrease in trich and THC production...or they might just be a bad strain..

Here's my feeding history:
~Just water for the first two weeks
~FloraMicro forthe remainder of the veg and a week into flower
~FloraBloom from then until now, All GH Flora at the suggested amount with little variance.
~I added a a little bud candy in four day intervals during the middle of my flower.
~I also stunned the growth 3 weeks into flower with "bushmaster" as it was getting very tall and tops were popping over the sides of my hood.
Thats all guys. What can I do now? I was really thinking that I was underfeeding it. Cal/Mag? Will this plant start ending it's life cycle without trichomes?? I'm so upset, I spent so much time, heart and money into this. I would really be devastated!

Please help me herb lord if you truly exist!!??

Its too late to do anything that plant looks like it was either completely grown wrong or some horrible genetics. not to bash you but it looks pretty sad, i would do some more research and start over.

Theres nothing you can do now to make it more crystalyy its alreayd done flowering, you should just make hash with it.

I agree that the problem lies most likely in the genetics.

Where did you get these? What are they? Seed? Clone?
 
Thanks for the help guys anyway. The hash tutorials im finding seem to indicate the seperation of trichromes from the plant more or less, considering I have none what can I do with it. I'm drying a little bud from a top and will burn it up and pray for results. I was wondering what else can be recommended for a plant in this situation? I'm reading that tri's are believed to form for many reasons, one being protection from UV light. Do I have a chance that there could be a healthy amount in the bud?
Has anybody out there ever experienced something like this?

Wow.. I say give it a little push... throw a co2 exhale bag in there... 26 usd.. the 400w should be more than enough.. and put the nutes away... fresh water flushing.. IMO
 
My cab temp is great: 78-80F day(12 hours) and 65F night(night). Ok I will just add water for a few days and keep the rest of the cycle normal. She does smell good, not outstanding but fruity. I'm test drying a small nug for shits and giggles and will vaporize it tonight to test results... if any. Wish me luck guys :)

I actually thought deficiency rather than overfeeding when I saw the pics. The purple leaf tips are usually a sign of P deficiency. I know that because unfortunately I've just had a bit of that on my own ladies. We'll see how much that messes up my grow over the next few weeks!

That said, I reckon your genetics could have been bad too. My buds were totally covered in crystals from about week 1 of flowering when they were still tiny....on the bud leaves as well as the calyxes! :)
Whatever the problem was though, it was too late to save your girls by the time you posted. Sad times :(

Anyway, bad luck, and I hope it goes better next round!
 
Should I just harvest her as I would normally? Could ya give me some options to best utilize what I've worked so hard on... I'd hope last resort I could still get some light medicinal use out of her? Ideas?

Thanks and forgive me for dragging out his painful death... I just feel she's got a good heart deep inside ;) hint hint ??

If it has zero crystals I can not see it being good. If it has few crystals it might still be good. Finish it and see.
