On one or 2 of my 4 strawberry cough's.. the very top of the cola seems to be dry, its not as "dank/wet" as the other budsites... if i touch the middle budsties or the mid/lower cola my hands get sticky.. but if i touch the top of the cola its just kind of dry not sticky at all...
is this normal or is my humidity to low.. or what is going on? :sad:

you hav elow humidity and your light is to close , but at the same time you want your light to be on the sid of the plant so it gives equal light to penetrate to the side instead of the tops and you want you humidity down so that your bud dont get moldy and etc and get more air flow yo

i had my light about 6-7 inches above my tallest plant, couldn't be burning it.. no sights of heat stress, and i have a cooltube with a 439cfm exhaust fan pulling the heat out. I raised my light about 3-4 more inches...hopfully it fixes the problem....

i had all 4 of my plants really close together, it was stopping light getting to the bottom... so I raised my light a bit and spread them apart hofpully this fixes the problem.

the buds are really dense... not airy at all.. they are really compact looking. The tops just seem pretty dry...

I just see others at week 5 and see the colas/buds really big... I wasnt feeding correctly i was only using bigbloom and only using 1.5 teaspoons per gallon every other watering...

I just started using tigerbloom at half strength So I hope they will fatten up... I will also be using "OverDrive" the last 2-3 weeks of flowering.

heres some pics from a day or 2 ago. Do they look like they are on track? I just wish the buds /colas were bigger and filled in more.


ps: Im running a 400w cooltube
