Are these auto or photo?
Obsidianskies
started grow question 6y ago
Despite a 24h light cycle, calyxes and pistils have started to grow! Does that prove these are autoflower, or could it be stress or some other factor?

answered grow question 6y ago
The term is called Preflowering and at the 6th week of VEG. Seeing preflower is completely normal and not a sign that it is an Autoflowers at all.. Judging by the size , shape your plants are photo plants and you shouldn't be concerned at all.

Thinking of cropping very soon.
It looks like I am in the start of the cropping window here, with about 50% of trichomes cloudy and they are starting to bend over with age or weight, and the leaves are starting to turn yellow. Would it be best to crop now if I want more of a high rather than couch lock.

The first grow isn't turning out well. Anyhow the buds are too heavy for the branches and one has already collapsed. Should I keep feeding the plant for the remaining buds and cut the bent branch.... or just flush->harvest, harvest all together? 10% of the tri's are amber.

I cut my OS, but...
In your opinion, after 10 weeks (checking the trichomes, which were all milky and very few amber), will the plant have developed enough? Will the effect I'll get be noticeable or will it do nothing? I'd like to briefly understand the various differences in harvesting and the effe

Didn't notice smell before drying. Possible bud rot? Was humid, so put in dryer for extra 24 hours until stems broke.
I noticed 1 bud that smells bad. It literally smells like a mothball. Loud, chemically(it's a Chemdog cross) and offensive. Opened bud, but I don't see any mold with the naked eye and don't have a micro yet. Should I just throw it or the plant away? I'm not sure what to do...

Does this look healthy for 6.5/10 flowering weeks done?
First time with sativas. Not used to having a long flowering period. Any thoughts on how my plants are doing or what I expect to see for healthy plants over the next weeks. If I wasn't told otherwise I'd be harvesting these already. Check diary for better info.

Ready but plant I'm not sure is
My question is how quickly does a auto flower go from white tricomes to amber. The breeder recommends 8 weeks of flowering which I have. What I find is just a couple maybe 4 amber but mostly white. Would love both effects so that's why my question. Should I check more often

Does anyone have some pollen? and if he can send it to me, please contact me. it would be better if it is from a female, but it can also be from a male.
Hello my fellow growers, it would mean a lot to me, if someone would like to send some pollen to Europe, if someone can, please contact me, of course I pay the postage and everything else.

queue de renard?
Bonjour, je pense que ma plante a un problème. Comment appelez-vous les têtes de queue de renard? A quoi cela serait-il dû déjà ? [nowln] Cela doit être une question récurrente, désolé, mais je ne suis pas sûr à 100 % de moi sur celui-ci.

Newbie, are these buds ready?
Girls are in mid of 8th week of flower. I started to see some trichomes a bit brownish but also some clear ones, not much of whiteish. Is this normal? The zoomed photos are taken from the same that I think more matured. Do you think is still a week off or is ready to be cut. Tnx
