When Do the Buds Fill Out?

lstdreamer said:

nice job buddy, sativa dominant strains always take a long time, and by the looks of those leaf blades u are pushing very sativa heavy. sayi as are the royalty of marijuana with Thc levels up to ten times higher than her indica cousin. some indicate are sixty day finishers because they have been bred and adapted to being grown in a cooler climate with a much faster photoperiod. the wait for sativa is grueling but u won't be sorry when she peaks. patience my friend, this is why I'm mainly an indica heavy grower, I depend on turnover rather than quality. if I were u I would leave her alone to adjust to the stress so she doesn't hermie, other than that keep doing what ur doing. ur stems are a lol stretched and big but some warm bulbs with 6500k in the red spec should flower it nicely

in 48 hours of darkness, stimulate ur resin production and she will get horny as hell and show those hairs lol, ur for I g a stretch either because u have light leaks or ur lights are too far away, wish I was there to help u buddy, adjust ur mediums, sloooooooooowly. wait three days before each light adjustment. if in a week ur stretch doesn't peak then u know u have a light leak issue. seems to me like ur plant is torn between, aging herself and giving u the goods, and feeling like a toddler and wanting to play. tune it In bro, lights first, 3 days at a time, after a week, if it's not light leaks then u have a strain that doesn't like to mature under 6 feet. lots of sativas are this way, I hate them lol, but again...they r the royalty of marijuana/cannabis and they demand the same pampering they provide to u. hope this helps, next time grow out a few indicas or autos, then tackle the emperor

ur doing very well, just relax ur bud will be ready by Xmas lol, not meant as an insult. if u want my advice, wen she is done make butane honey oil out of the entire plant. u might get a quarter oz. then sell it for $60 a g or $100 an eighth while u start some indicas, by the time u run the sativa out, ur 60 day indicas will be ready, and indicas are indeed the medicinal sought after, bud or oil will keep u happy from the dwarfs/shorties lol. p.s. I'm 32 yrs exp, and I am under Massachusetts canna-care. and they provide instructions on manufacturing ur own medicine.

one more thing, hot/warm bulbs will intensify ur flower

Haha its not an insult bro but im glad that it can be harvested, i thought that this plant will just be a piece of crap, haha ive already sent a friend request on fb,

king lebron said:

Haha i guess i just have to wait for it, ill just score a kilo of weed and be stoned for the next 2 months haha. My stems are stretched? I thought sativa strains are known for stretching, what do u mean by stretched sir? Internode spacing or the length of it? And big stems? Big as in thick stems? Is that good or bad for me, haha im confused,

i thought i have tight internode spacing and my stems are thin,

By the way ive topped this on veg and trained them so it will have more colas rather than 1 top cola,

If my stems are thick and long, is that abnormal? Bad?


I saw pics of other's colas and i compare it to mine and i see its not the same. Like this one

Remember, your first week of flowering starts the day you see buttons or white hairs on the plant, NOT the day you switch your light to 12/12. Some strains can take two weeks of 12/12 before showing this. You may just be in week 5 and not week 6 of flowering. Just sayin...

Wish I read this before, I been scratching my head too over this. Started a thread of my own in the end. pic going up tomorrow. cheers

Hello guys i have a question,

here's my update entering 4th week of flowering, why do the buds/budsites look like stretching? And the budsites(along the nodes of the entire stalk) still dont have pistils forming, they are just stretching, the buds look like they are growing longer. Also, on top of the colas, i still dont see any pistils, just new leaf growth,

or is it like this: budsites will stretch for a week or two, then the filling/thickening of the buds will happen the following week?

Do this look normal to you? I think my plant is sativa, i cant compare it to ur posted pictures, is it good for a 4week old sativa grown indoors, btw its my first ever grow. I just follwed the tips and tricks of the experienced growers here at rollitup.com

Any comments suggestions or anything are welcome. Thank u

False

So I'm also having a bit of a curious mind on mine as well if I supply a few pics and let me know what you guys think about when they will start swelling. I'm running 900watt LEDs full spec. 5th week of flower pics correlate to these numbered strains
1. Green Crack
2. Amnesia Lemon
3.WiFi Alien kush
4. Obama Kush
5. Blackberry Og

Pics

That big girl in the back right in the white trash bin is her. I'll get a close up

She easily would've been a 6 footer but I knocked her top PFF with my ceiling fan lmfao..but I think k it did her okay because she has massive buds all around. Her clone is just as tall already and only into week 2 of flower

Ur a legend mate!! Looks like u did quite a bit of defoliating was she bushy?

Buds look good bro

This is my first real grow on my own honestly just did a bunch of research and poured time and effort and she played out. I think if I play around enough I can grab a lb off her clones someday. and she actually isn't too bushy and I haven't really defoliated much off her cept back when I took off most the uneeded fan leaves in the 2nd week of flower. She still has a long time she's still nothing but white pistils everywhere and its week 5.

My amnesia lemon was a bushy one i cut heaps of fans leaves off and shes still bushy im going into second week of flowering and gona have to cut more leaves of. I got a chocolpez next to it and i can see the clusters of hair forming on her not much on the amesia lemon though. Thumbs up for the first grow ur smashing it . Amnesia lemons on the left pics 10 days old so shes a lot bigger now
