So guys I posted a while back that I was starting a scrog . So far so good . Apart from the net wasn’t strong enough and pushed up with the growth . Anyway I’ve managed a decent canopy height and evenness . I currently only have 1 week left of flower . But my
Flowers don’t seem to be gaining much mass and ( bunching ) very much . Any ideas why maybe or I’d there anything I can do ? Pictures for an idea 24904C73-1ED5-4DDE-9AC5-6CD6658267A8.jpegBB498BB2-5F60-4ADF-A965-ECF8BB280400.jpeg591542A3-DE45-4D89-9AAF-2B7EFC7043BD.jpeg24A636D7-F398-4260-ADBF-A31BC694B992.jpeg

Well thanks guys that’s the booster I needed !! How do they look all good you think ??
Guessing you don’t stick to an 8 week flower ?? Also do you do just a water flush towards the end ? Or keep the nutrients going ?? Thanks all !

No, the plants are ready when they are ready. Not when the breeder gives an inaccurate time frame to harvest.

Keep the nutrients going. Flushing is for toilets, not cannabis plants. My personal belief anyways. You don't stop feeding a turkey before Thanksgiving and expect him to keep fattening up.

Brilliant mate ! Info is much appreciated . Only my second rodeo this so plenty learning to do !..... my last lot I didn’t scrog and was done at 8 weeks flower with much bigger buds . But opted for the scrog to increase yield this time around . I’m confident it’s there if the weight mass comes ! Much more bud sights this time around ! Thankyou

Looks like you have a fantastic grow going, don't ruin your hard work but chopping it too early. Those have at a MINIMUM of two weeks left but probably closer to 3. If in doubt still post some more pictures in 2 weeks and I'm sure there are plenty of people on here to continue to steer you in the right direction. Good luck!

Week 4-6 of flower is when they BULK up.

Last two weeks of flower is when they put on the weight.

You have at least 3 weeks to go

At this point you need a loupe. You HAVE to check trichomes on their CALYX.

Be patient and you will be rewarded.

It's hard to say from the photos, but I'd say they look good as they are. You can definitely pluck a few stray leaves here and there that might be totally blocking a bud site. If that isn't the case let them go, as is.

As long as you have really good air movement you'll be alright.

Hi there just one more thing . Does anyone believe in trimming the leaves ? Rather than actually removing them ? Or will this cause more shock to them ? Thanks .

I feel like trimming the leaves keeps the node active and the plant keeps sending wasted energy there. It only makes sense to tuck them aside or remove the whole thing... cloning aside obviously.

Would you care to share any thought over my grow ? Any input or anything you would or wouldn’t do right now ? Thanks
