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.

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

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'd say a bit more time mate, let more resin glands swell up.

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

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

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

to much N will supress bud growth and also shows how your leaves look too
what are they being fed ?
King Ben
Oct 20 2009, 09:55 PM
Hesi bloom at around 3ml per lt and phosphouous plus @ around 1.5-2ml per lt, they get wateed when the pot feels light

Oct 20 2009, 09:56 PM
