You can try back building your buds to increase density. Never heard of a bud swelling technique thou.✌️

Bud swelling technique. Great lighting, great environment, not to much food, growing experience. The 4 do's for nice big bud. Nothing else works.

How do you think?
How many weeks do you think the harvest has? The fragrance started to increase and most of the trichome was clear and cloudy?

No narkotic
Hey guys, how much time do you have for harvest? Trichome pictures were taken over the calyx. The reason I ask this everyday is that trichomes should not be narcotic🤪

why is a f1 fast version resistant against fungi? And how easy will she get it? This week remarkably bad weather. Today the light rythm was 14/10 first tim
The seller said my strain is "remarkably resistant against fungi because of its short flower period"( sold as 6 weeks). Why would that make it more resistant? I'm quite afraid for budget because of the mild sea climate in the netherlands. And she isnt even flowering yet.

Bananas, WHAT DO I DO??????
I’m into my 6th week of flower My caramel strain has started shooting off what I believe to be nanners. I noticed a few days ago and have been plucking them but am noticing more coming out. I’m sure I’ve missed some but should I keep plucking and cross my fingers or just harvest?

Harvest or not?
Hi, another harvest question! 12the week of growth. Some buds have, say 10% amber trichomes, others all milky. I'm keen to get the plant out of the grow tent as it is blocking the better yielding plant. Should I harvest or wait a little longer?

High Humidity
Do my buds look airy? I live by the coast even with a dehumidifier in my tent, I am having trouble with RH at around 60-65. I run 2 small 6 inch fans one below, one from the top. I also run a 4 inch inline. I have a 2x2x4 tent. Any help with dehumidifying my tent?

Pollinate
Hi folks, I want to take some seeds for new crosses. What if pollinate just 1 stem of an auto strain around 15-20 days before harvest? Does it decrease the resin quality general or just that stem?

Hermaphrodites or bananas?
Finished week 5 of flowering- just wondering if anyone sees signs of herming or bananas. A plant hermed next to these, so I'm hoping i caught it early enough, before it got a chance to drop any pollen. The first 4 pics are of 1 plant, the last 2 pics are of a different plant.

Speeding up ripening process
Hello, I want to harvest my plants this weekend, but one of my plants is slower than others, I need to speed up ripening process. I was advised to switch from 12/12 to 18/6. Or I´ve read on ILGM give them 10 hour of light and 14 hours of darkness. What should I do? Thank you. :-)

Bud Rot
Noticed and removed two affected buds with rot.. Stems look like rotten near bud sites and nearly all fan leaves are yellowing. Weather is bad again. Should I pull the plant or leave and monitor?
