Im currently using Advanced Nutrient Big Bud powder,and Grandmas Mollases
every other day..today I fed with all this,and some A.N B 52 nutrient accelerator..
In a couple weeks I will start using the A.N Overdrive,which is supposed to be great...if anything is sutting flower,etc..its the higher than optimal temps..at the canopy its around 82-86f..never higher ..but in the lower 80s...1.The price..this is my first real grow,and there no point in spedning a hundred dollars on seeds..which I might mess up..this is just to get my feet wet,I will invest in killer genetics when I have a few seed runs under my belt..
2.AK48 is supposed to be some VERY VERY potent ,high yielding,overall good strain..Ive heard ONLY good things about this strain..and IDK..Ive always
been attracted to nirvanas selection and price tags..after this seed run..Ima try ac ocuple of their other strains..then invest in the good genetics keepa mother..and really start growing..
So overall..do you thnk my buds are coming along nicely..around what time are they REALLY gonna start filling in..so far theyr rather fluffy,not yet dense..since resin prudcition RECENTLY started,I say theyre far from done..will they fatten up ALOT more during weeks 5-9???
I`m not knocking ya Mobb,just was curious. I myself started out with some bagseed and then went on to good genetics. I do like how your stuff is turning out. Like christen23 stated. You can use some sort of bloom enhancer. I use Fox Farm`s Beastie Bloomz. They put serious weight on those nuggers. Good luck to ya Mobb. I`ll be watching this for sure.

So will they fatten up alot more ..Im at day 27..and Im planning to flower for ATLEAST 60 days..maybe even 70...so this means I have around 33 - 43 more days of flower...is this enough time to really fattne the buds alot more..?? Will the buds fatten up so that all the top main colas look like one big bud..instead of a few seperate small buds along the stem?>?
Never go by what the seed company says about flowering time. The times they give are with the plant being in an optimum growth environment. Allow the plants to show you when they are done. Flowering time also depends on what pheno type you have. Some pheno`s go longer then others,others shorter. You may look at your plants at the 60 day mark and they are not done. Maybe they need another 2 weeks(it happens)Overfeeding/burning them will def cause a delay in finishing times. Any kind of stress such as heat or lack of water,lack of flushing,pests....all can cause flowering to go retarded for a bit.

Aiit heres a nice update..Ive gone to battle with the spidermites..first sparying the entire plants down with water..hoping to knock them off..then today with a seaweed spray..after reading that seaweed has some effect against spidermites
..Here are the pics..I have around 32-42 days of flower left..Ill try to let them flower for as long as possible..
HERE THEY ARE AT DAY 28 OF 12/12

da bud growth is looking good but you are having some problems with yellowing/curling leaves.. I cant tell from the pictures but what is the white stuff on the leaves.. is it a powder mildew?? Neem oil works great to get rid of mites btw..

Im pretty sure the yellow spots on the leafs were caused by spidermites..Iv already been to battle with them
..I drecnhed the plants with water..then the next day with seaweed as I read seaweed is effective on them..GrowingHigher

The pin point spots on the leaves is caused by the spider mites.
You have some yellowing, leaf curling going on unrelated to the mites (particularly in the first few pics of your last post.) May be a potassium deficiency, possibly a salt lock out.
I am not familiar with the AN line so I cant give specific info on it, just make sure you are following the label and measuring properly. Also make sure that your PH is in a good range. (5.2-6.0 should work for coco perlite mix)
You can try flushing the affected plant(s) liberally with a 1/8 diluted mixture of nutrients.

Then wait and see, sounds like it should be fine.
Also when using a coco based medium an extra dose of calcium and magnesium is beneficial.

Im using Monkey Juice Bloom..which is designed for coco coir..what about the mite damage..how badly can it lower yields?

It could destroy your crop if you let it... Don't worry about quantifying so much. Just know you won't have to loose yield to mites next time if they show up again because you know how to fight them.
don't quantify the puss, the puss just is

Damn lil buggers...can I get the no pset strips in home depot..if so..what section? also,what effect will the mites have AFTER I harvest them..will they continue sucking the juices from the buds...where can I buy the no pest strips?...home depot..walmart?...it seems this is my only option now..as I still have a month left..and the mites are getting out of hand..and I dont want to spray soap and shit on my buds...
Those burns might be from overdoing the seaweed extract, those are usually very strong and fast-acting. Great foliar feed, but it looks like it might be the cause of your burns.

I highly doubt it...there cause by the spider mites..as I hadnt use seaweed for a while..and ALL my growth,including the newest growth..has the yellow spots..so I know its not folair feeding..or deficincy..its the spidermites..Im goin to look for the no pset strips today..I just found out theyr bankrupt..so lets hope they still have them in stock..
