You are actually starting to flower just on schedule. Nothing is out of the ordinary. Have patience.

No diary = information. Some strains are slow at the beginning of flower - there's not much you can do about genetics. Good luck

Main cola formation
The buds right underneath the top bud have tiny branches of their own and aren’t growing at the base of the main stem. Will they join and form a single main cola or will they grow independently knowing they have their own stem? Thanks a lot!

Could someone help me identify the mold? Im guessing mildew but it doesn't look like that or bud rot. It affects leaves and buds and looks like grey dust

Auto still not flowering after 3 months
Hi! My Northern Lights XXL auto is not flowering yet. I germinated it the 9th of april and it should be in full bloom by now but she's still growing in height with zero colas. She's very healthy, no problems with nutrients, in full sun about 14 hours per day.

Umgeknickter zweiter Haupt Cola
Hallo Mir ist ein Missgeschick passiert und die Lampe ist abgestürzt. Es ist nur einer Dame was passiert. Kann ich die (2 Wochen vor der Ernte) so stehen lassen oder sollte ich den 2. Cola kappen um dem 1. die Energie zu geben? Der 2 ist gebrochen hängt aber noch dran.

Film-like substance on leaves
Any ideas what's causing this "film-like" substance? Doesn't look like web, possibly trichome liquid? I'm thinking of harvesting -- about correct time -- as I'd rather harvest and cure early than lose it. My plan originally was to wait another week or so....

Spiders? Bluetooth Auto Week 11
HELP. i'd noticed my Bluetooth discolouring on its top cola (pic 1) then I discovered what appears to be webbing, like spiders webbing (pic 2).So my question are simple, what is it? Is the plant dying from it? Or do I just remove the top? & how do I stop it happening again? TIA

Roughly about week 3 of flower. Overall 8 weeks of growth and I always considered my plants the same in age as I grew them together. Now that we are deeper into flower the difference in the flower is apparent. Is this an age difference or just fenotype/strain Photo (1-2 )/ (3-4 )
