They are still young and white. Give them time and they will bulk up, put on some color, and get some nice aroma.

Much like me, they may be slow to mature!

Yellow tipped top growth
My plant has had these yellow tips for a few weeks now. Seems to only be affecting the top leaves and doesnt seem to spread any further than the tips. 3 weeks into flower and her buds aren't fattening like my others. I added more P. Any ideas? She has plenty of micros...

Nitrogen overfed on flowering stage
Hi My grow seems to go deeper into nitrogen overfeed that I cant do much about, the soil i bought seems to be PACKED with it. Flushed a couple of times, and no result. I get leaves, not buds. I’m on the 8th week. Can i still save the grow and try to re-pot in neutral soil?

Not budding?
Do these need to be put under 12/12? They're under 20/4 at the moment, her sisters are budding fine, is she just slow?

Nearing the end of this grow and had a few issues. Didn't flower as it was meant to so flowering started almost 4 weeks late -I triggered using 12/12
Autoflower plant now shedding leaves in abundance, but buds don't seem ready...growth of buds has slowed (hard to tell if it has stopped completely tbh). At this point the plant has been alive about 4-5 weeks longer than its internal clock intended. Do I harvest now or persist?

So the majority of the pistils have turned red. The trichomes have turned cloudy but I’m not seeing any swelling in the calyxes. Also I’m seeing some foxtailing going on with new white pistils developing on the top. Is it ready for harvest?

Popcorntopjes op 1 plant
Hallo, Iets raar, ik heb 5 autoflowers en 1 plant staat heel hoog en vol met mini popcorntopjes geen enkele dikke top, de ander 4 vol met dikke toppen. Hoe zou dit komen. Heb ze in het begin wel getopt. Kan dit een reden zijn? Groeten

I’m wondering why my buds don’t look mature, this auto is suppose to be 6-9 weeks Today starts week 7 and they look very small to me. I started using beastie bloomz today. Is there something I’m doing wrong?

opinion on bud maturity ?
About 6 weeks since flip from flower and wanted to know if the orange/browning of the white pistils means that the bud has already reached its max size and will only ripen ,but bud sizes look pretty small to me does this mean yield will be low ? or am i just overthinking.

Increasing Bud production in the end
What can i do to increase bud production in the end now ? I am not sure if she just needs more time or wants to get flushed. I still add nutritions but not too much , since the plant got burned tips and the plant seems to use water in upper part of pot but the bottom is realy wet

Auto flower stalled flower?
I have an Auto flower that is about 3 weeks into flowering but I'm seeing very little trichome development so far. I have two other autos from the breeder, different strain, that's frosting up nicely. This is supposed to be a faster finishing auto so I'm a bit confused what to do
