High All!!
got 4 fem WW, all grown from seeds, all fed with KISS method on coco on dripper system. 2 X 400W HPS.
3 are growing and maturing normally rather smallish colas, all harvested after 20% amber. However one of the girl is 5 months old now with colas as big as soda can and keep on growing new white pistils... Looked trough my portable microscope and I couldn't see a single amber head....80% still clear and only about 20% are cloudy...
What is wrong??? 1 month veg + 4 months flower and no amber resin??? I am scratching my head and I want to chop this b!tch down already......The huge ass colas are so inviting....

TIA

Picture would help. Either a crazy Sativa or you may have some intense fox-tailing that could be cause by too much nitrogen too late during flower on some strains....

My experience with WW is that many plants resin up early but continue to mature over a long period. That gives them a wide harvest 'window'. In other words, you can pick early if the rent is due, or wait much longer for more connoisseur quality. But there are also WW plants that don't seem to want to quit flowering and that can be a pain. I've tried shortening the day even to 10 hours which seems to help. At the least it saves electricity.

you should take a test branch and smoke it to see what the plants gonna be all about. then you will be able to decide whether to harvest, or wait more.

I really am hoping this would be the case... There is no more big fan leaf left on it, the remaining leaves are rather pointy and thin...

There are just a little bit of fox tailing, maybe from the use of maxigrow during veg while the true KISS is full Maxibloom... But I really doubt this is the case because all the other 3 sisters, exactly same fert on centralized dripper has matured normally and curing on my jar now...

The most logical IMO.... I'll try this as first attempt. Thanks a million dude....

WAIT.....after a careful second look I think...Yes...I have intense fox tailing..... Can it be the cause for my plant for not maturing after 4 months?? How to fix it??
Weird..the other 3 are fine....

Not that I am too lazy to post pics. But I am paranoid....LOL!!
Anyway, I am flushing right now... I don't know if it's because of the shortened daylight period to 11 hours or Koolbloom full dose that I have been giving for the last 3 days. I finally see amber trichromes....and it's covering about 10% already....
