I need some help guys. I have a few Magic Buds in my polytunnel, and I think they are about 8 weeks into flowering. I had a look at the buds yesterday with a 40x magnifier, the pistils look amber and the trichomes are clear, but the buds themselves aren't that fat. If these were indoors I would chop them now, but as this is my first outdoor grow I don't know if they will fatten up any more if I leave them for a while longer. I've been feeding them 1ml grow & 3ml bloom, but cut the bloom to 1ml last time I watered.
Got to say that, if these are as fat as they are going to get, I'm a bit disappointed. I thought that I would get a better harvest under natural light and with unrestricted roots (they are in the ground) than I get indoors.
e2a: On the plus side, this is the first time I've had no problem with yellowing leaves.

Hi Jom,
No, but checked today and founs some rot, so gave a spray with hydrogen peroxide. I'll try to get a macro shot tomorrow, but it's my son's camera so I'll have to try to work it out

Really?
I don't think that'll do anything any favours.

Why? It's diluted 2 tblspns 6% to 1L water. There's plenty of info on the web about using it on plants to stop rot, mould etc. It certainly hasn't done any harm.

Here's some photos. What do you all think, will they fatten up if I leave them longer? BTW, the white marks on the leaves are splashes of Dithane, to be washed off before I harvest.
