Hi, Nothing to worry about. It is normal thats how the bud smells. Once you harvest, dry and cure, you will smell the difference. Happy harvest!!!!

Getting better yields from small plants
She's well into flower but in my opinion, she's too short for it. What can I do to make the flowering process go as well as possible considering her short 15cm stature? The side nodes are barely 5cm tall and are already flowering. With no new leaves growing it might get rough.

A low thc % can cause less amber thricomes? She ripened completely days ago but no amber yet, quick one is low on thc, could be that?

Are we Twins? would we make a good couple? who are we lol?
Essentially is the same nutrient correct? From my understanding, a PK booster is usually thrown in the middle of the flower cycle for about 2 - 3 wks. I've also noticed it rarely cut out. Can/would you mix the product lines? what weight differences have you seen with use?

Different buds, same strain
I have 3 Quick Critical+ in my DWC. The buds from 2 of them (1) look more snowy than from the other (2 & 3). The third plant (2 & 3) has also some curly and translucent leaves on top of the buds. Do they look normal to you?

Harvest time delayed ? (had ph problems)
Same seeds, same procedures (taller one has less soil due to mistake in beginning), very different results. Flush em? Harvest the smaller one? Its white hairs are pretty much brown, but not much ice there. The taller one has much more ice, but the white hairs are mainly white

Is she ready to flush???
Is she ready to be flushed? It's day 105 and week 15 and I'm thinking she's done. Lord knows how hard I tried to hold the camera 📸 still 🤣 but it's pretty tough to do. She is a sativa dominant so I don't want to take her too far into amber trichomes. Tell me what you think 🤔

Dry pistills?
Noticed a few Pistils on the plant have started to dry up at their tips. Is this expected or an issue? Light is 16" away, but with the stretch she does get closer than that from time to time.

Do outdoor plants not get the dark they need. Just wondering like street lights moon stars does that cause hardship the way a light leak can mess up a tent. Just wondering should be putting hoods on our outdoors too like a bird. Just wondering peoples take on that philosophy.

When harvest?
Hiya. These pics from 1 of 2 plants that flowered early due to stress (I think). I vegged the 4 Matanuskas in garage and there were some cold nights. Not sure which week I’m in. When do I harvest? Still feed nutes? Wait til I see an amber trichome or two?

?To Chop or Not to Chop?
Im really in two minds as to chop her yet or not. Trichomes look mostly cloudy and very few white pistols left, but the top buds have that light green 'still growing look' or am I wrong? Not the easiest question for others but I would like others opinions. However they come lol

Do some genetics display milky trichomes from the start.
Hey all. I'm wanting some advice. My Dos si Dos 33's trichomes are all milky and she's only been flowering for 5 weeks. Surely she's not ready.
