The strain in question is Brazil Amazonia.
I am growing this in a 200w cfl grow box.
My other indica heavy hybrids (jamaican voodoo and ghs exodus cheese) had semi fat leaves but this one is all skinny.
The seedbank says its 80% indica and only has one pic available of a top of a cola so I can't tell if this skinny leaf thing is typical.
The plant grew extremely bushy and looks like a minature (edit from baobab) african acacia tree lol. I can't post pics as I'm on my phone but my harvest post in newbie central has pics of this plant.
My question is, should I wait for the trichomes to turn amber since its supposed to be mostly indica? About 1/3 to 1/2 of the pistils are brown but the buds are really fluffy compared to my other plants, however if I dried what I got it might yield close to an oz or more of bud.
The seedbank says 8 week flowering and that was yesterday. My 2nd plant will be ready in a few days here. They said can go upto 10 weeks without degradation and that it grows buds so heavy it bends the stalks so maybe the buds are just now starting to bulk up and an extra 2 weeks could give me the density I'm looking for in an indica?
I figured skinny leaves = sativa so maybe the smaller surface area is causing a longer flowering time?
Btw I grew 2 of these and the other was male but looked identical.
