I’ll get some pics later on. Not sure what’s going on at this point. Just gonna start flushing and hope it turns out good. The buds themselves don’t seem to be suffering just the leaves around them.

Doesn't look as bad with the regular lights on. I think they are just hungry. I think if they go another 3 or 4 weeks they'll really pack on some weight.

I thought these had a long time to go yet, maybe a few weeks or month or maybe even more. It is ak48 and the description says it is supposed to be finished around 48 days, hence the name. It is around day 37 or so and I am seeing mostly brown hairs and mostly cloudy trichs. It hasn't filled out as much as I'd like, I thought it would be a lot longer and fill out more by then. Have been told it still has several weeks, which would give more time to fill out, but the hairs and trichs seem to be telling me a different story from what I have read on threads about when to harvest. What do y'all think?
edit: not seeing any amber trichs at all, but not really any clear trichs either, they seem all cloudy

That has 3 more weeks, from whatever day the pic was taken.

Ok, guys and ladies. 1st timer here. I have grown many times before, but I have never made it this far along for 1 reason or another. Therefor, please forgive my total ignorance. I have no idea what strain this is, other than it being a sativa. After reading a little I realized that what I thought was week 1 was actually, more than likely week 2. See picture number 1 which was taken Sept. 18th. What week would you say this was at?
Pictures number 2-4 was taken this morning. What do you think of the size and the look of the quality? What are you thinking roughly another 4-5 weeks?
Thanks.
Halfway there.

What is Foxtailing? I have tried searching for it and just keep getting hits like in that message. Is it bad?

I have read of a couple possible causes like heat and nutes, but not what about nutes that cause it. What else causes it? I gather from a couple messages where you mention it that going long can cause some.

It's when the bud grows little arms/branches, so to speak, out of the buds. The bud growth changes from tight and compact to more branch like. They call them foxtails because you will get growth of bud branches that resemble the shape of a foxtail. It's a subtle change in the growth pattern that helps determine how much longer to let them go.

This 1 Pineapple Express clone plant has been a slow grower. I'm hoping this plant doesn't need harvesting for at least another 30 days (in order to gain more bulk and height). I'm also hoping the slow growth won't impact end quality. The leaves aren't as dark as depicted here, but darker than a lot of plant pics I've seen. There's 8 spears growing on this plant.

From this pic, does it look like I can grow it for another 30 days before I should harvest?

The close up camera shot with flash was so that a pro can tell me the progression of the trichromes in relation to harvest time. They are all clear looking at this time. :cool:

Hi! Ive never grown before but just went balls deep with it and got a 3 pack of seeds and made a small 10l dwc and got a 180w led light =].

The seeds are Northen Express (Fast Buds) and they say its 8-9 weeks from seed!

Ive been feeding it advanced neutriens grow/bloom A and B on the schedule on the bottle!

Its currently 11 weeks (12 on monday) and i have no idea what the fuck im doing at this stage!

It looks like weed though, thats a start =D

No idea what my temps and humidity is, there is a dehumidifier in the room though and i change it weekly.

Ermmm... Halp...

Thanks in advance my dudes.
