How to force open closed calyx's
miahbdankystarted grow question 3 years ago
I've noticed at times on some of my grows that some calyx's remain closed when others calyx's surrounding are open. How to induce close calyx's to open that remained closed? I've waited before until all have calyx's opened, but it was taking me into overripe. Will they ever open?

I actually answered my question.
Solution: Tilted the plant 45 degrees and exposed more light. Even though Im a newbie with under a year of grow exp; I have to disagree with @Papa_Ts answer. "Calyx is just there for the ride honestly. Once the plant shows it sex that’s it for me"
After exposing more light with the angle; when the calyx open it sprouted almost complete buds that grew and filled in where there was space between nodes.

That’s like a wayyyyyy to deep minor detail. I don’t ever pay attention to what the calyx does.
I watch my trichomes on my buds to make sure they get milky and that’s how I tell my bud is ripe.

Add weight in flowering?Would a black strap molasses brewed tea help my buds add weight? I'm using only Fox Farm Trio and CalMag with reverse osmosis water, pH @6-6.5.
While I have atleast 2 weeks left I'd like to get the most weight possible, if there is anything I can do this late in flower that is.4 years ago

Fruit Punch Autoflower on Day 43??This Fruit Punch auto on day 43 and not flowering like all the rest. I don't have another space to switch to 12/12. Have you seen autos go this late? I don't want to scrap this beautiful plant if she still may flower at 18/6 but don't want to take up room if it needs flipped.Week 6
