Small bud and faint smell
smokingskills
started grow question 2y ago
Hi everyone! I am concerned that my buds have a very faint odor (you have to almost touch the plant with your nose to smell it well). Could it be because I have a powerful fan? Or will the herb take on an odor over time or after drying?

Smell will increase with maturity, not with drying and fan is not the reason.

Light, and strain issue during flowering
Have two auto bloom grown under same conditions and time. One DIDNT auto-bloom? The sec is just starting to Flower. Should I switch my light schd to 12/12 to force blooming? And is that a bad idea for the auto that did, since it will cut light hrs down significantly? Any thoughts

Light damaged colas, possible hermie or seeding?
I underestimated how tall my autos would get in my tent and some colas ended up getting less than an inch from my lights. Most colas were fine but 2 seem to have mutated in some way. Calyxs grew way more leaves and pistils per each individual calyx. Is this a major problem?

What do you think?
What do you guys think? It’s the middle of week 7 flower. GSC extreme by ILGM. 80/20 heavy indica hybrid. All trichomes appear to be milky and some starting amber hues. Only thing that’s throwing me off are those white pistols? Good to chop? Been flushing for 1 1/2 weeks now.

Can I wait with harvesting another 4 days or would you advise to do it now? Ground is still wet from flushing. I wanna wait till the ground dries up and harvest her on Saturday. Will this be ok? Do you harvest when the ground is dry or wet?

Already dry in 4 days??? Ready to cure? Weather is very dry.
Once cutted, I put the main nugget to dry 4 days ago and it seem like its already dry. It weighted 35 grams fresh, and now it weights 8 grams wich is around 25% of the initial. Is it ready to cure? Most people said it needs 10 to 15 days to dry. Weather is really dry, temp is 28°

No trichomes almost week 8.
Hi guys my g.g. auto from fastbuds is 7 weeks 4 days old. I would have thought the trichomes would have started. Also the white hairs are turning brown. Im thinking my light is to close. Idk though. Any suggestions would be great.

Will she get fatter?
Will the buds fatten up more or is this as thick as she’ll get? Perfectly content, just don’t wanna chop her too soon if there’s some time by the end of her life where the buds blow up. 😇 In week 11 flower - strain is supposed to be 9-10 weeks flower. Trichs not amber yet.

Weird formation, should I harvest?
Buds are growing weird, her 2 sisters have been chopped but this one seems to be getting sick and slight foxtailing, the main colas have 4 tops growing out of each causing a block like cluster, trichomes look milky with the odd amber one. Should I just chop her down?
