I don't think it is safe to post off my phone. If I can i will let me know
Post from phone to photobucket and remove location data then post to here, did the pistils recede and the calyx swell and harden? If so this is not a bad thing?

No I did not change my light I am useing 400 watt hilux hps and a few . 2700k cfl for side lighting. And written yes my calyx is swelled and harden. And the pistils is not recessing yet. So when they start recede that when I start my two week flush are do I need to start flushing now. And I will check out photobucket

Now that I think about it... I think I know what you are talking about...
I have had it happen a couple times, but it has been a while. It was with some c99 plants.
It was right around 1 week before harvest. The calyx were swelling like normal, everything was good, then all of the sudden the buds shrunk. It sort of looked like they lost hydration but the soil was wet.

I never did find out what the cause was... It was shortly before I got root aphids for the first time. But I don't know if they are connected. Possibly I had the aphids at the time but did not notice until the next round.

My guess at the time was that the sativa genetics in the c99 were showing a closed window of harvest. Like I waited just a little too long or for some reason the window closed. I never waited long enough to see if it would open up again and the calyx would swell. so...?

I would take a look at the root system. See how your roots look and check for pests. Your plants can become dehydrated due to root damage, even though your medium is wet. But then I would think that your leaves would be showing signs too.

Without pics, you're not going to get any good answers. Just post when you can get to a computer.
Post in the plant problem section, with pics. You'll get more info there.

Thanks potpimp how many weeks do you think I have before flushing. I was thinking start flushing the coming week for two weeks. So that will be like 9 weeks flowering so they don't look bad for my second grow ever. And they are really getting dense and loseing the fluffy nes that it once had.

I think at this point if I were you I would just rip a bud off, let it dry for a few days and just see how it is, if you think it is close enough to being done it might be... I think pics are required for something like this but thats just me. It sound like the plant might just be maturing differently than other plants. I have seen it happen before as well and I believe for me(outdoor) it had something to do with a cold night(frost) and I think there might have been some shock from that and I would do what heartland hank said and take a look at the root system because too cold could freeze the roots and I believe that is what happened to me now that I am reading about hanks root problems/

EDIT: They are at 9 weeks? What strain? If its not a real late finisher it should be about done

The strain is delahaze from and a do dinfem diesel those are the one in the pic. I have a g13lab purple haze in there but one start budding late so it look like it needs a month more.
