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

Brown pistils at week 4 floweringHi guys.
I'm at the end of the 4th week of flowering.
I'm a bit worrying about some "brown-ish" on some pistils.
Are they normal? The appear only on some flowers.
The distance from the light (200 watt cfl) Is around 8/10cm.
pH: 6.3
Please helpp! Thanks in advanceBuds. Other

Got this as a cheap intro led and I feel like the plants stay in cottonball phase of flower...brought one outside and now its loaded with buds.

How much longer do you think?PE leaves are losing color at this point, she’s getting closer. Not sure how much longer to let this one go. Day 57. Online recommended harvest date says day 55-65. Trichomes appear mostly cloudy to me already but she’s shooting new white pistils daily. Thoughts on 10-14 days?Week 14

Estimate yield?Fancy estimating yield size?
Appreciate that it would be a wild guess... But it's my first grow and my impatience is killing me!!! 😂
For me to guess yield size is second best to sampling... And we all know one shouldn't sample hahaBuds. Other

Does a re-veg harvest quicker on her 2nd flower?For anyone that has re-veged and re-flowered a plant, Did you notice a quicker harvest?
Originally chopped at 56 days to keep green for re-veg.(early I thought)
This one seems about 10 days faster on her maturation.Week 12

Yellow sugar leavesI am waiting for a low-THC strain to develop amber trichomes and I found two buds with these yellow sugar leaves. There is no bud rot, should I wait longer to harvest? Also, do CBD strains develop amber trichomes, or should I harvest now? Additional details available in growdiaryBuds. Other

Are my top buds ready for harvestingI have been growing my royal dwarf for over 8 weeks now. The trichomes on the top buds all look cloudy (no amber's yet) and I was wondering whether I could cut the top 4-5 buds? A lot of the pistils are still white but none of the trichomes are clear. Is it too early?Week 8

But trichomes look milky and a lil amber to meSo consensus is another three weeks or so and I appreciate all of the feedback but buds look milky and a little amber to me. I’m including a better picture in case anyone has any different advice. Otherwise I trust you all to wait. Thanks!Week 17
