Correct, wait until 90-95% brown pistils/hairs. Having the light above the plants would speed things up, although that may be impossible. Hope this helps, Organoman.

Don't worry they will soon bulk up. When you have 80 to 90% brown hairs it's time for the flush. Would say your a bit off that.

issues late in flower
I am late in flower with my little blackberry kush and she has begun to fade. Shes foxtailing and doesn't seem to be putting on bud weight, has red stems and clawing leaves. Is this natural late in flower or something caused by me?

Die Meinungen darüber wann ich meine beiden Pflanzen ernten sollte spaltet sich! Meiner meinung nach würde ich nächstes Wochenende ernten aber ich habe Angst das es zu früh ist. Die etwas lila pflanze ist die fat banana und die Knollen auf den letzten Bildern ist green gelato.

Growing a hybrid clone, I'm in about week 5/6 of flowering. I feel like the buds should be getting fatter/taller by now, thoughts?

LOW NUMBER OF PISTILS!
Low number of pistils at end of flower week 4. I've got two chees plants in the same room with a lot more pistils than the GDP, plants are healthy but the GDP seems to be a bit slow! What might the problem be? Seems like they won't grow into fat, dense buds with so few calyxes

I’ve just put another light in the tent to add wattage for flowering, I’m aware of the uneven coverage so will rotate the plant each day, multiple times if I can. Are there any other tips? Advise for this period? Thanks in advance! 🙂

Plentiful Sites but Micro Buds
Maybe it's too early but I'm halfway into week 9 and my bud sites are plentiful but seem small. Been checking as most strains of the seeds I bought are 10-12 weeks. Should I not be concerned. I mean my autos are twice the size of most it seems but smaller sites and size. Thx.

Floración lenta
Alguien sabe por qué la floración va tan lenta y las flores son tan pequeñas? Puede ser sobrealimentación o falta de luz? El pH de drenaje me sale a 5.4 , creo que es bajo y la EC de drenaje está en 4000.

Slow bud growth
Hey everybody would anybody have an idea on why my bud growth seems stunted? Like maybe it's just genes and it's a slower bloomer or what? That plant imho seems fairly healthy but it's just producing flowers at such a slow rate compared to its sister sitting right next to it

Buds too leafy
After heat stress, all large fan leaves have died. The bud growth probably got stunted. Lots of trichs but is more leaf than bud. How bad is this? Is it going to suck to smoke?

Buds Need Beef!
So 5 weeks into flower, things from my end look like they are going well, I just do not feel the buds are packing on the weight that I feel this strain should be producing, any thoughts on how to help the buds fatten up?
