Trimming around buds pre week 14
LK_Smokastarted grow question 3 years ago
I’m wondering.. should I be trimming the leaves around the buds so the buds get more light? It just occurred to me that I don’t see all those leaves on other diaries? Would it help the buds mature with the extra light and nutrients not goes to leaves? The video is from a week ago

buds have minimial to no photosynthesis occuring. they do not need light in the way that leaves do.
reducing the amount of ATP produced from photosynthesis will not speed up anything, ever. it is the energy that drives cellular growth.
its not light hitting the buds, but the leaves around the buds that powers it's growth - or reacts like when "streching". sugars are trucked in through phloem, but you will get better buds when local leaves are powering growth.
unless we are talking about a palo verde tree that has chlorophyl in its bark, leaves are what soak up photons.. not buds or stems etc.

Flowering stage/progressHi my BCN critical xxl auto, is currently on the end of her 4th week of flowering.
I was expecting by now that some budsites would be bigger than what they are. Is this normal or is there any delays or problems with her?
Growing outside with no nutrients at all.
Many thanks!

enlonged budsThe younger plant has developed flowers in an enlonged shape. The plant herself has grew a lot during her cycle (plant on the left day 72) and I can't understand the reason. Maybe some stress due to the hot temperature in the box during the veg (30ºC as peaks sometimes).Any idea?

Harvest?When will this be ready for chop. I’m having a hard time getting a good look at the trichomes. I know the goal is 30% amber. One plant has very few white hairs and one has quite a few can I wait for the others to come to full maturity too. I plan on using same tent to hang dry.

Slow finish Critical PurplePlease see my post. Big John cola today, Big John Cola 3 weeks ago.
This plant doesn't seem to want to finish.
Is this strain normally slow to finish?
Trichomes are cloudy, none are amber yet. I'm waiting for a few amber trichs, then I will harvest.
