Airy buds or just genetics?
Duddersstarted grow question 3 years ago
How does my bud development seem to you?
Trichomes aplenty but I feel the leaf to callyx ratio is pretty poor?
Perhaps due to something I've done/not done, or simply a predisposition of its genetics?
Trichomes still 90% clear.
Likely to fatten up in next few weeks as trichs turn?

You still have a while to go, but "bud density" is largely a factor of genetics.
I would also guess you switched to bloom nutrients too early, cannabis still needs adequate nitrogen during the first 3 weeks or so of flowering and staying with grow nutrients for these first few weeks can result in larger flowers, but not necessarily denser flowers and will also help prevent your plants from going pale and yellowy so early in the flowering phase.
What I have been doing for the past 25+ years, and is something I believe in, is to stick with grow nutrients for the first two weeks of flowering, then half grow and half bloom for the next two weeks, before switching again, this time to straight bloom nutrients through until the harvest pre-flush.
This seems to produce the biggest blooms on plants that don't completely exhaust themselves before maturity.
I also never use full strength as recommended on the bottle/packet, but prefer two thirds to three quarter strength of any nutrient that I use, as I prefer a gentle feeding routine over strong spikes of nutrients, which can burn your plants more easily.
Hope this helps, Organoman.

Thanks for your replies guys.
Is there any benefit in running led as well as HPS?

Several things. Just a quick look, you have lots of activity in these buds. They have several weeks left from first glance. They may be more "fattening" later. Some buds are more compact than fat. Which is also fine, may be very dense still in the end but smaller sized. Again can be genetic/strain related. Some strains do have more leaf to bud ratio, def a genetics thing which does not mean it's bad, just strain related likely. Some strains flower very slowly for the first several weeks then really change gears later on. Some strains also have more resin than others. This just may be a low producer of resins but may still be great quality in the end as far as usable smoke. I would make sure to get some of each nutrient ratio still. Low on the N and get some PK in there. Potash time! She is yellow early. make sure pH of run of is similar to your feeds. Water till some run off. Hopefully these end up with a nice finish. Just some patience might be due. Hang in there 👍 ps:make sure they are getting 8+ hours of direct sunlight if out doors. Move them strategically if possible to expose to full sun. If in doors, make sure you have good Led. No purple blurple unless using HPS or other then awesome. 👍 I'll have to check in on your grow and comment as well. Will do today. Good luck

around what yield per plant might i expect...?I know it's not a consistent number, but does anyone with more grow experience know if there's a good chance I can get over an oz per plant? since they're still not close to being done stretching? this photo is from day 4 of flower, after a decent pruning/defoliation.

Strange discolorationThe plant is becoming less green, more yellow, dark green/blue, and the tip seems necrotic. She received a little more light intensity (TS1000 at 50cm, 25%dim to 50%dim) when she was repotted on the final DWC. T.A. (Growing on FeedChart) was used to create the nutrient solution.
