hey!

im not an absolute beginner but i guess you could call me a slow leaner:-P,anyhoo something is bugging me about my last two grows since moving into the loft,previously in grows that i did in my outside shed i noticed in alot of the plants i grew that the calyx size was always quite large and most were,but i have noticed on my recent grows in the loft that the buds dont seem to form quite as well,the calyx`s seem very irratic in growth and one plant basically didnt swell in that department whatsoever,now my ph is checked regularly,the humidity is lower than id like but 35%-40% should be ok for flowering right?the lights are not close enough to cause any real heat to the plant and fans blow constantly with an inlet fan although there is so much ventilation in the loft i hardly feel i need one but do,i feed with biobizz bloom/grow as always and have used the same compost mix with perlite etc in all plants so what could cause this irratic growth or is it defined by the genetics in the seed which i once heard but have no real idea,i mean the harvest is always mature and a pleasure to smoke but i miss and do like those big fat calyx as easier when rolling:weed: any ideas and wether not all strains swell to the same extent.

All strains are diff, diff sizes,tastes,color,thc levels....every plant you grow is gonna be different in some way
 
tbh ive only had this problem since switching to female seeds and they have always been the free beans given with an order,they germinated ok but quite slow,im thinking genetics as i just grew 3 sugar babes and they grew perfect,nice big calyxs,but on my blueberry gum and kandy kush "fems" the calyxs have grown very irratic.i understand all strains are different but calyxs should grow the same,the buds might look different but the calyxs should always form at least a certain size,these look like they are at first stage and at week 8 thats not right.ive just ordered some regular seeds as had no issues with calyx`s when i grew from them just to see if indeed these free fems are a bit suspect?id like to make it clear that i am not dishing any seed banks and realise human error can play a part but somethings not happening for a reason and i want to know why.thanks for the input guys!
