both the biddy and the super skunk seemed to stop flowering, or the buds seem to have stopped getting thicker. Theres pretty much no differenct from the last pictures i posted of them. Plants are up and whatever damage they obtained from nute burn is sitll there but it stopped getting worse. Its seems the were stunted by the stress. Any idea on how to give them a kickstart again or just wait and see what happens?

the buds on the biddy are small and not plump or anything, and ive started noticing some color changes in the pistils on buds in the bottow of the plant, which is way too early by the looks of the plant.
patience... don't water til its DRY, and then use just water, followed about 10 mins later by your nute mixture... or water however... just be patient... nute burn can be a bitch.

UPDATE: Dwarf finally has about 15% amber trichomes, im going to wait a few more days then give it the chop for sure. What do you guys think of the "dark period" before harvest. These buds are pretty icy to me since its my second grow and by far i am impressed with the little dwarf. Should i give it a couple days of dark period before the chop?

any input??


the SS and Biddy seem to be coming back to life although the damage in the SS is far too bad, at this point im just growing it to see how far it gets. The biddy is showing more frost and it appears the buds are getting fatter. Hopefully it makes it, it almost has a fruit grape-like smell.

Glad to hear things are looking better. I have had AWESOME results doing a 48 hour dark period. water at the beginning of the 12 hour light cycle before the 48 hour dark... you will be happy. JUST WATER.

for sure, anxious to see... let it get cold in there too... not too cold... but 50's ish... you want her to know it the end... its cold and dark... and she must protect her seeds with resin, (even if seedless, that's just their cycle) trust me, it pays off. don't go puttin her in the fridge or nothin... never had good luck with that... but let her get colder than normal... and you'll love the way she protects herself.

chopped a few hours ago... smelled changed completely to a very sour and fuely smell... smells delicious.

Had to cut up the main cola into the smaller buds because i found a bit of mold (VERY minimal) I guess it was from lack of ventilation but with buds so tight idk how i wouldve gotten air through there. the deepest areas were pretty moist and FULL of resin, this stuff made my fingers and scissors STICKY. very pleased with the outcome for a 12 inch tall plant in a 5 gal pot! I allowed it to grow as big as possible but its called dwarf for a reason. Great strain for the stealth growers.


pics will be up later. The dark period didnt make much of a difference on the main cola but the side branches sure made a difference. For next time ill probably cut off my main colas first (they finish first anyway) and leave the lower branches and smaller buds in the dark.

pics up tonight

Its been a while since an update, the super skunk is close to being done but yields were really hurt by whatever problems it had. Smells and smokes great just very small yield, maybe an ounce total.

Biddy early still has a good 3 weeks maybe more to go but its budding kinda weird, ill post pictures tomorrow.
