wow what a long assed flower time, it don't really look sativa to me either, I guess can't really tell with no fan leafs, didn't read the whole thread but, man you musta done something wrong, to get it stunted that long. Hope you have better luck with your other grows, don't let it get ya down. Good luck

it got wicked cold for a few weeks and i know that doesn't help, they're definitely sativa though, beyond the shadow of a doubt......but anywayz, ive done alot of reading and apparently something in superthrive can cause "irregular" growth when used late in flowering and im pretty sure that must be the problem as i have multiple buds growing on the colas almost the way i have multiple colas growing out of where i topped it, if i makes sense...almost like the cola was topped during flowering and one cola sprouted 4 more out of its apex, hopefully you didn't assume it was the "clear" container that has been painted beyond opaque (like the other guy didn't notice)

but yea, its definitely taking its sweet time, my other one finished in a little over 12 weeks with the same container, nutes, watering schedule, everything, so just more evidence in my mind that points to it being an anomaly

Just a few pic's of the garden as of yesterday, they're a little droopy, i missed a day of watering but its under control, theyve been watered and nuted since (fox farms tiger bloom/big bloom as per the chart and a splash of grow big just for the stretch phase)

i hated to pull the male, that was a healthy looking plant, im getting better at my craft me thinks :)

The Big girl is still producing some white hair but all the side of the bud facing away from the light is close to ripe so im wondering if its just that sensitive, it has been rotated since, we shall see

anyways, here goes...:weed:

next post will be more thorough...IM HIGH AS FUCKKKKK...off some of the chopped down to nothing two topper in the front left of the full tent pic, what i burned has been cured 8 weeks (wow...how long have these plants been flowering :finger:) but its some goodness

thanks for commenting!
damnit now thats what my fourtopper should look like

guess that was a compliment lol, if you're curious i just used uncle bens method for 4 main colas https://www.rollitup.org/advanced-marijuana-cultivation/151706-uncle-bens-topping-technique-get.html

pretty much everything you need to know is on the first page, people keep asking the same questions for about 150 pages...so just read the first one very carefully (thats all i had to do) and you'll be good to go

also in the event 2 try to take over i pinch (supercropping minus the almost breaking) or just bend them down and tuck the leaves under those of the smaller branches, leaves are the "power plants", the bigger your leaves, the bigger your plant will ultimately get and vice versa, a big plant needs big leaves.......rambled but basically it works on a small scale as well, if the lower branches get all the light, they get all the growth

sooo the nute burning i thought i had going on when i flushed was apparently just the onset of heat stress, i wasn't aware because i ignorantly had my thermometer above the canopy and not in the direct light, it was telling me it was fluctuating between 64 and 77 and when i moved it the other day it said 95...wtf! so i raised the lights a litte bit and put a pot of water in front of the fan hopefully to raise the humidity (which has dwindled to 16%) i removed the damaged parts of leaves and did a little LST to the 4 tops to provide some more light to the under growth and to keep the colas from being right on top of each other in the end

Hopefully ive corrected the problem, i have all the passive air vents opened up and added another exhaust fan, will have to check on them tmr to see if my changes were effective. Ill throw some pics up when i get her healthy again, right now shes lookin a bit ragged, though bursting with hair, i have high expectations for this chica

haha, if that was the dry weight id be in hog heaven, i typically get between 20-25% of the weight weight so im still lookin at between 35-45 grams which is A OK with me cause i still have one main cola left along with about 10 secondary colas to harvest, if i can pull 3oz total ill be pretty happy, not bad for a first indoor harvest, i got a little more than an oz off the small little 2 topper and its some crazy smooth smoke...lighting some up now actually

thanks for the kind words, and yes sirree max, nothing like giving it the chop, good luck to ya!
