Will my buds get any fatter? If so, how much longer until they're done flowering?

Don't sell yourself short H.E., you may have been told that, and they're wrong, or it could be that you're both right, and the plant is being obstinate. Regardless, I don't go buy "Days", I go by when the plants are done, when about 30%- 50% of the trichs are gleaming amber, and the buds are throwing off fox tails =)... and the pistils are all brown and receding back into their shells.

YUMMY!

Nice job by the way.... Once you get your space limitations worked out, you'll be flyin'.

Sorry but....... I don't know of ANY variety that only runs a 65 day grow cycle from seed to finish... Especially when the shortest flowering time I know of, of ANY plant is 65 days. At 4 weeks flowering, you still have another 4 weeks to go, at least.

The pistils haven't even started changing, really, yet....


There's lots of misinformation out there, being given by people all the way around, from the breeders to the seeders to the folks that give advice on here.

U said u should have started flowering sooner but if they are autos then u don't really have any control over that..they do what they do on there own schedule..

I've been using technaflora products for nutes. They're in a hydroponic cabinet so yeah, they are pretty cramped. I've been trying to control the height since veg; topping, cropping, & tying down, but there's only so much you can do in that amount of space. Next time I'll go with a shorter strain. Thinking back, I probably should've started flowering earlier.

EVERYBODY overgrows their area the first time. Don't get smaller plants, get a bigger area!

First you get pistils, then they get covered in leaves; I'd say you've recently entered the "then they get covered in leaves" part ;)

Big question here that I don't think any one asked or atleast I didn't see it. What light schedule is this plant on. As an autoflower plant I personally would have it getting atleast 18 hours of light. Its going to flower either way. I watched a auto scrog a guy did that was awesome, and he ran 20 hours of light all the way till harvest. He also had great yields. I've only ran a couple autos and they were grown in solo cups for a contest on here. They grew well under 18/6 light and matured nicely.

I think the other thing here, is the 65 days that you were told I think was still flower time even though it was an auto. I don't put much weight in the various harvest estimates, I just watch the plants. I'm guessing that if you counted the 65 days from about when it began to show pistils that you will have a nicely matured and frosty plant.
