Hey everybody. Just wanted to post an update and see what you guys think. Its a bagseed grow. My first. Using Schultz All Purpose Plant Liquid Food, 10-15-10. I don't remember what brand the soil is. 4 26w 2700K CFL's and 4 43w 6500K CFL's as well as 4 2ft 24w 7800K Floros. Im also using 1 tbls molasses with every feeding. Im feeding it almost every other day or until the soil is bone dry. Currently I am noticing some browning on the very very very tips of the new growth leaves and Im 99.8% sure its the beginning of nute burn so I plan on cutting back some of the nutes. If anyone wants to Ill be happy to post more pictures.

Id prolly say so cause the leaves do have a slender look to em but still with a lil more thinkness than that you find on a closer to pure sativa strain. I had an Original Haze x Skunk #1 that had leaves slender than that w/o the ridges. Just my opinion though. They look good though. Give em some water for a couple days or go and give the girl a good flush. She'll like that since her tips do look a lil burnt. Other than that just keep her going and try to get back heathy. nice work for 1st time

Thanks Bubbuh. I discovered yesterday that my timers were off and that instead of 12/12 they were receiving something like 13/11 or possibly even 14/10. I believe that because of this my buds were not getting any bigger and all plant production seemed to be going towards hight.

Just went and bought a 60x-100x magnifier at radio shack for 12 bucks. I just used it to check her out and it looks like super tiny trichs are starting to form! On a side note Ive noticed some of the pistil tips on some of my lower bud sites are turning brownish red. Can this be caused by nute burn or is it possibly something else?

Pistil tips turn red/orange/brown as the plant matures. It's a good sign if anything...unless you have some other sort of nute burn or something on the leaves...then they might be related and it might be bad. But it looks like you're doing everything right, so keep up the good work!

Yea thanks Zardokk. Im definitely starting to notice a heavy glittering on the leaves. Since I changed the lighting schedule to 12/12 the buds have really started to put on some weight.

Thas wat i like to hear! And even better to see! I love it when i have a female thas starting to put on weight, I know in a couple of weeks that she'll be all mine haha. I also have one of the radio shack scopes, they def come in handy. Two of my ladiez I have going now are starting to put on trichs.

I cant wait for those trichs to be fully formed. If the glittery look is any indication of whats to come its truly going to be a sight to behold.

Hey Bubbuh something Ive been wondering awhile that maybe you can answer. Im going for a couch lock high and I know I need a high % of amber colored trichs. Im going after about a 70-80% amber coloring. My question is as follows: Is it 70-80% the total number of trichs on the plant or is it 70-80% on any given leaf?

I think I can answer that one for ya, tha answer to that would be on the majority of the plant you'd want that 70-80% amber coloring. Yo butt will def be couch-locked then! You'll be feeling extra good :)

Image dump time. As you will 2 of my lower fan leaves have turned yellow. Nute burn has advanced a small amount on the leaf tips. Im going to continue watering with plain water for atleast 3 more feedings. Buds are definitely getting bigger and crystallization is coming along nicely on main cola. As you can see by the pictures some of the pistils are indeed starting to change to almost a burnt reddish color. She seems pretty happy so far. Any replies or questions are greatly appreciated.
