hi all,

well into my first grow.

i'm flowering right now and am at day 31 (nearly half way?)

these pics are of one of my AK-48

she is looking very nice and frosty but her buds are still small. i know i have a while to go yet, and i know that it's the last 2 weeks when they really start piling on the pounds (pounds? i wish).

still, can't help but think they should look a little larger.

view my pics and share your thoughts.

thanks















:weed:

they still look young be patient you'll go i one day and say "Damn" then a week after they'll double. seems like the closer to the end they get the faster things finish up. if that make sense

makes perfect sense, thanks.

i'm a very impatient person. but there's no way these are getting the chop early after weeks of work!

i'm really excited, hope they make it :)

Nice looking plant man, I was wondering if you ever trimmed the bigger leaves off of your plant? I have heard both, I was told to trim the bigger leaves because all they do is take light and water away from the buds. Can you give me some advice....

Removing leaves is frowned upon, unless they're played out. Your leaves gather sunshine/light and, as they yellow and die, supply missing/weak nutrients the flowers need for full potential.
Here's a couple shots of my dogpaint at 30 days.
Hope ya don't mind me coming aboard . . . I just think these shotz are NICE!

i really advise against it!

i did it myself, not a good idea. they are there for a reason. unless they fall off naturally, they should stay put! :)
