I think I had my light too close and temps got to high on the tops and stunted growth...I raised it up to about 18 inches above. The temps are about 83ish now under the light...I have co2.
good yeild big pots is the way to go
i didnt understand why you put coco mat under pots but if you would have done at least
5 gallon pots you would have seen bigger buds
it happened to my last grow pot size crap 2 gallon hydro clay pebbles its like growing in half gallon pots because roots cant grow in clay pebbles any gaps in bettween pebbles is the only root space, rookwool on the other hand roots burst right through it. so 2 gallons rockwool = 2gallons of root space
if temps are high growth slows alittle bit.i dont see nothing wrong with your girls
it was just pot size and alittle bit of environment facters.i will give you info on all that
soon i'll pm you
start flusing when hairs are 35% to 50% red hairs or go to radio shack and buy Illuminated Microscope with light magnifys 60x-100x cost about 12$ so you can see bud tricromes for ember colors
they should also be standing straight when they start bending means havest time is past due and thc is degradeing
Gland color will vary with ripeness of the individual THC glands, starting at clear, turning to milky, then turning to an amber color. There may be some exceptions, such as some of the Blue strains and Blackberry.These will have darker, sometimes purple gland heads. But by far and large, these three steps of ripeness will exist with the vast majority of strains on the market. The first stage, clear, will tend to make for a more cerebral, up high, withvery little body effect. Harvesting at this stage when little if any trichomes are milky yet, can be tricky. Harvesting too early can make for a beautiful marijuana plant that will not have much psychoactive capability! THC needs to "mature" to be able to pass its psychoactive capabilities down to the smoker. This is why I always recommend waiting until 50% of the trichomes hit the second stage: milky or creamy. At this point, you will definitely have a marijuana plant which has reached its genetic potential.
The milky trichomes have some "cerebral" qualities, as well as some of the more "physical" characteristics of the high. The last stage, amber, brings on a more sedative, physical stone. If this is what you're looking for, than I would recommend a sativa/indica cross, or an indica dominant marijuana plant.
Amber trichomes seem to ruin a sativa high if the marijuana plant goes too long : at least 50% of the gland heads have turned "milky
hope this help bro

you'll lock mag and mag will lock cal just keep things the way they are
like hydrosun said they look happy it might be a pheno of longer flower time

I agree hydro.
I'm 50 days into flower now; should I start flushing now?
