on Friday I will hit the 11 week mark in my flowering and I’m starting to pull my hair out waiting for it lol

I followed a Humboldt professional feeding schedule, but that ended at 8 weeks and I went to straight water...

I’m at 12/12 with 3 x 400 watt hps lamps

tricolmes (sp?) are still clear under a microscope, and I still have a lot of white hairs... does anyone have any idea how long these will make me wait?
Sorry some of the pics came out orange; my camera has a hard time adjusting to the spectrum of the hps lights.

Looks like sativa dom strain, with still a few weeks to go. I'd wait for the frost to stop then cure for 1-2 months, for good results.

Looks like a sativa like xmax said, I believe that they take longer to flower so I'd be patient! It looks like you got some healthy plants that will give you a good amount of bud! Just be patient and let the plant reward you for your patience! best of luck man!bongsmilie

could be a little stunted from not being fed do u know the strain? if its a haze of some sort those can take up to 17 weeks for a few strains but i think they would be alot taller i guess if you knew what strain it was that would help.

Casey Jones
[Head Seeds]

Sativa 80 / Indica 20
Origins - Trainwreck x Thai x East Coast Sour Diesel
Flowering - 56-63 days
Harvest - Mid October



Casey Jones combines an excellent sativa mother, a Trainwreck x Thai, with an outstanding male from Rezdog's Sour Diesel v3 line. The mother originated from Billy Goat Seed's Oriental Express cross. She has a very sweet flavor, and a heady trancendent high.

Adding Diesel to Trainwreck suggested the name Casey Jones, engineer of the most famous train wreck of all time. The sativa-dominant Casey Jones strain has an amaing high. The plant varies slightly in structure, from Thai foxtails to Diesel plumes. It retains the short ripening time of the Oriental Express mother, finishing in about 8 weeks. Casey Jones is not overly picky, suiting the novice grower as well as the sweet-toothed connoisseur.

This variety multi-branches well, especially when trained. She prefers moderate feeding and grows to a final height of 30-40 inches when forced at 12-16 inches. When plants are grown short with a single cola (SOG style), they yield an average of 1/3 to 1/2 ounce. Grown large and trained, plants could yield up to 3.5 ounces each.

The buds form like towers of calyxes, tight but clustered, creating a looser cola, with colorful pistils that vary from orange to pink. The leaves have thin blades and stems may purple late in the flowering phase.

The Casey Jones flavor is a combination of the confection-like sweet Oriental Express and the citric sour of the Diesel. The high can be felt almost immediately and lasts about an hour and a half. This strain has an "up" effect with a vividly trippy, thought provoking quality that can lead to mental wandering. Under its effects, one may feel a stronger sense of connectedness to self and others. it is good for creative activities that can benefit from an introspective mood and don't require intense right brain focus. It is less than ideal if you need to make plans, balance your checkbook or do other very linear activities. Go fly a kite, watch a movie, hike around in the outdoors, or engage in a little painting or other interpretive activity when indulging in Casey Jones. Do not drive a train!
hmmm so if ur at week 11 urover even with a couple week buffer so my guess is there either staying like that inwhich case id snip off a bud and test it in a couple days and see if u like it or it could be stunted if its a heavy eater then getting starved when its in full swing imo.

Straight water for the last 3 weeks? nothing good will come from starving your girls.
