Week 7 : Halellujah! I am finally unstressed! I don't know if it's the UVB lamp I added or it would anyway go that route by itself, but trichomes are here! And I can already see that by just using the zoom in my mobile's camera (nothing fancy as you can see by the photos posted so far). I will order a jeweller's loop so I can better inspect what's going on, but the truth is there's lots of trich popping out. I 'm pretty sure the lamp accelerates and multiplies the effect, as the change was dramatic in the past 3-4 days. Also, all tops that are closer to the UVB are literally starting to frost from the amount of trichome. I mean it's visible by naked eye. So, the UVB will stay there indefinitely. NOW, the next issue that arises is temperature inside the tent. I would love to have the recommended 19@night,25@day but this seems out of the question. Temps outside in Greece start hittin' 39-42oC in the day and around 30@night so it;s impossible to keep up. I bought 2 extra mini usb fans that are stuck blowing from the outside to the in (through the side net entrance) I raised the LED as high as it will go, and thinking about decreasing the intensity a notch more. The UVB lamp doesn't add that much heat, but 1-2 degrees definitely, and right now it matters a lot, as I 'm in the reds. On the other hand, the UVB will not move from there, period. Will have to think about it... The temps I get now inside the tent are ~28@night and ~32@day. I want to lower them as much as I can. Any suggestions anyone?
P.S. : I also got so much excited, I started using filters for the close-up photos, and a Temu mobile camera lens magnifier (40x) just in case I could capture any trich photos. Well,leave a comment if you may, I know most of them aren't as focused as they should, but I promise I'll do better next week.

Looking really great! It's huge!
My experience, if the plant gets strong light intensity, and enough nutes to handle that light, the plant/buds grow short and tight, and don't stretch or get airy.

@soul79, keep seeing your questions about ways to lower temps. What has worked for me is putting all fans you have, or all you can fit even just 1 at floor level pointing up into the plant. Heat rises as we all know, and doing this takes that cooler air at the bottom and pushes it to the top. It also greatly helps airflow within your plant, and doesn't mess with leaves surface temps. I have also put ice cubes in my humidifier and that dramatically helps lower the temps. I've dropped it at least 5° with just that.

@Moon_garden, thanks bro, I really appreciate you checking this out! She is starting to fill up the tent alright. I was a bit worried after the first stretch, seeing all that space from one bud site to another...It has started filling up since, but a bit slower than I had imagined. Happy growing bro! 👍

Day 42 and you talking bout harvest? My friend. Chill chill chill. Focus on feeding your girls, do not overwater, and keep growing. You got several weeks to go before you can even start to worry about harvesting time. You got this bruv!!!

@McGrowin, thanks so much brother! I know, it's beginner's worrying, Not familiar with this stage where you can see light green coloured buds for a few weeks without them growing by the same speed they did so far... and the absence of trichomes worried me quite a bit. Takes some mental practice to being patient at this stage and not overfeed or overdo it in nutrients, I guess. I think I just managed to qet over that stage. I appreciate your comment brother!
