Hi guys and girls,

Grown a couple of times in the past and have had mixed results, so thought i would ask you guys and girls your opinion on these. they have been flowering for 9 1/2 weeks today and i was wondering how long you think before the chop.

King Ben

Are they hydro Ben if they are i would leave it another week before flush, or if you use Ripen it forces the plant to finish in 10 days

I'm thinking this is a bad idea for two reasons.

1: He's growing in soil

2: Why would you flush - ie starve - a plant if you want it to put on weight ?

Keep feeding the plant thumbsup.gif

The thing is, @ about 5/6 weeks they looked like the started growing again, if i open up the buds a little they are propper swolen in the middle, i will try and upload a pictuere in about 15 minutes ( got to find the camera, kids they hide everthing )

I would give them another week...

i'd say a bit more time mate, let more resin glands swell up.
King Ben
O.K. finally found the camera, heres a couple of pictures from inside the buds.

hmm, interesting

the bud overall looks like it needs more time

but the calyx's that are shown seem to all be swollen

is this the 1st time you've flowered this type?
King Ben
yep its my first widow, i think the problem is i repotted during flowering ( i know a rookie mistake ) and they started to grow aging
Mr Mullen
Hello,

Check for light leaks in your grow room, I had a Leda Uno look like after nine weeks of flowering...

The leak started to make the bud re-veg.

I would not feed them anymore,

The plants in the first pic have leaves that are clawing ie curling under themselves looking like rams horns. This is normally a classic sign of overfeeding.

thats what thought, first noticed it about 4 weeks ago, so fed them waters for few feeds and started feeding again at low strength, but rams horns havent gone and the plants started to look pale so not sure what was wrong
StonedSkunk
Sounds like you have /had nute lockout.

Hopefully the weed wont taste too bad when you smoke it. But make sure it gets a good cure.

Some cracking looking buds though dude good growing.

I think that's a probable cause for the fox-tailing thumbsup.gif

to much N will supress bud growth and also shows how your leaves look too

what are they being fed ?
King Ben
Hesi bloom at around 3ml per lt and phosphouous plus @ around 1.5-2ml per lt, they get wateed when the pot feels light
jiffa
id drop the booster and bring the 3 ml down to 1ml per liter until they are finished
King Ding Dong
I know FA of use to you but to say they look good man... top work
