hi im just wondering, some of the buds seem to have like the white hais popping with little red shoots coming out of them, other more main buds dont seem to have this yet though, i am 3w into headn n just wondering if its normal? Alson how much more mass will the buds gain in the next 3w (as its a 6w strain) they are basically just alot of hair at the moment reasonably compact but not alot mass to them, supportin pics be up soon.cheers

some plants are just a little slower than others but what you say is all normall at that stage.. as far as the bud browth you aint seen nothing yet... lots of variables tho man need lots more info like strain, light, grow method...???

sounds about right, a slight on the slow side for a quick flowering plant.. I have a 6-9wk purp that shows bud sites in 2-2 1/2 weeks

I did a 24 hr dark period before switching to flower and it seemed to jump start the flowering cycle. Don't count on it being done by the time the seller says on the internet site. You really have to pay attention to your plant and it will tell you when it is done. You have to pay attention to the hairs and the Trichs. GL on your grow and hope you have a nice fat harvest!

sorry didnt really exlain myself to well b4, there is deff buds but some have red hairs popn from the whites n others dont, also how is it lookn for three weeks on? how much biger will buds get?heres sum supportn pics quality aint great htough106.jpg107.jpg
 
looking nice thick and healthy for 3 weeks they wont fill till the final 2 weeks and with quick strains "6 weekers" they are really 8 week plants that people rush and pull at 6 and all the weight on that 6 week plants gets put on from the end of the 5th week till.. on the flip side if the grower allows the plant to go 8 yield, looks, flavor, ext will be better

Ok cheers man will not be pullin early i wont maximum yeild/potency, will most likely take the tops of first and then let the bottom mature a bit more as it is quite a dense plant and the light does not penatrate through, would have tied down more but i ran out of horizontal room!, i am suprised that it does not smell more than what it does, but in sayin that i am now almost into my 4th week of flower and am expecting tings ta only get skunkyer from here on in. Cheers for feedbak guys
