I vegged them for just over 3 weeks and they are now been flowering for 8 weeks. They are 80% indica 20% sativa master kush from seed. They are under a 600 Watt HPS and ive been feeding them Bioz Bizz Grow during veg then Bio Bizz Bloom during flowering. Before flowering i transplanted them into a 10 inch pot and they are rootbound quite a bit from the initial growth in flowering. The temperatures are never under 70F with the light off and around 83-86F with the light on. They get bone dry really fast and i water them 3 times a day i guess this is from being rootbound. During flowering small light leaks came through a couple of times from my PC monitor or light being on for a couple of minutes in the room, as a result my plant hermied and i see quite a few seeds on it. The pictures were taking about 10 days ago and the buds are quite bigger now but the hairs are all still white and there are no trichomes.

Why is this, will they eventually come? Also im growing a rocklock plant aswell at the back right hand corner and it is quite frosty compared to the other plants why is this?

Yeah guess ill just wait a few more weeks i think, just hope it isnt gonna be a waste of time. Does anyone know if using bloom boosting nutes on top of the normal flowering nutes would help, i.e biobizz bloom boost ?

You can get you a tray a couple of inches bigger around than the pots they're in now and set your pots in those. Just keep those full of water and that should help with your watering problem

From the looks of those claw-like leaves, it looks like you gave 'em too much nitrogen, during flowering. That'll really fuck 'em up, and basically 'stall' them, for good. I did the same thing, recently.(doh! :lol:) Just a possibility. The pics aren't clear enough to tell for certain. :)

I see some trichomes, even though they aren't covering the buds. There really isn't much you can do now. If you wanted to try something extreme you could get a UVB bulb, but you have to be extremely careful around them. From what I've read you need to have an external switch just for UVB bulbs because they are harmful even in short doses.

I think you may just want to try different genetics. I'm sure this will still smoke better than what you can buy.

Thanks for the replies, the nutes while flowering have a NPK of 2.0 - 6.0 - 3.5 so im not to sure about to much nitrogen, the seeds are from white label master kush and after reading more about them it says the flowering takes 50-55 days but on another website it says the buds start to form at week 8, so im a bit confused im just going to leave em a while and see what happens, all the hairs are white so the buds arent mature yet.

White Label eh? Ive grown Nirvana Master Kush and it was really dank it could just be the genetics and the fact that it hermied??? If the rocklock looks good then I say genetics tho

Like nick88 said I get some saucers to put under neath your pots so that they collect the water coming out the bottom and so you can just fill them up if you want. I got my saucers at walmart for anywhere between $.40 -$.90 there cheap. Also I looked at your pics and pic #4 shows signs of your plant having trics. not a lot but theyll come. Per when your photos were taken it looks like your plant could go 10-14 more days. I know with the strains im growing my trics dont really start piling up on the leaves until the next to last - to last week of growing. Be patient your colas look fat and most likely theyll come.

Nirvana Master Kush. No trichs. I grew six trees in ebb monster and not a sticky bud in the bunch. I say it was a bad batch of seeds I used in 2012.
