Hello everyone! Me again! I am back with some more pics and questions. So I have these Chemdawg seeds here and I grew them! I have them flowering with some Blue Cheese in a tent. I am at week 8 now and both strains are ~9 week strains.... But check out these pictures of the bud structure.... My light is 10 inches away from plant tops and the Blue Cheese is doing wonderful!! But this Chemdawg...... Check it out.....

I understand that not all strains will go through any hair changes....but damn, this is week 8 and Im getting no real swelling, and the bud structure is strange, really elongated and thin..... ALL hairs are WHITE and new hairs are forming daily. I am an experienced grower with about 20 strains under my belt, but this is the strangest one yet. I have found similar pics on the internet so I know other people have grown it and smoked it this way, but to me, it doesn't look like its gonna be that good if I harvest it like I am supposed too after 9 weeks. I am starting to flush my tent this week for 7 days, then Im cutting, I wish I could leave these Chemdawgs growing for a bit longer but they share a hydro system with the Cheese so that sorta messed me up. ANYWAY.....what do you guys think???

HOWS THE SMELL?skunky fuely? looks like you have a very sativa leaning chemdog that may take 11-maybe 12 weeks to ripen.. be patient... keep feeding the chemdog and let em ripen. crop whats ready let her go longer

I will say this, last time I grew her... I didnt have the SCROG going, and she was SUPER TALL, well all of the were, so thats what makes me think it isn't Sativa leaning. BUT then again I did get on here for advice. :) So here's my question....

I need to flush those Blue Cheese this week. They are like DONE lol. Since they share a feeding system with Chemdawg they will be getting flushed too, I am not sure how that will affect the Chemdawg if I flush for 7 days then go right back to feeding nutes. What do you think?? Thanks for your VERY quick response Express!!!

Yeah I am upgrading my tent next week too so I can have 12 monsters in there... Im gonna get another ebb and flow too so I can do 6 plants on one schedule and 6 on another (if needed) cause this is ridiculous. I knew I couldn't trust these seed companies with time and shit lol but I went ahead and trusted them anyway. It's my own fault *wink*

Last time this happened I had a GIANT Thrips infestation so I just thought it was that. Now that I know that it wasn't that last time I realize my mistake, youre just confirming it haha. Express, thank you again for your quick responses. I figure as long as I yield more than I did last time which was like HARDLY anything (youre right there too) I will be happy. I may just flush for 5 days so the Chemdawgs dont go that long without food. Anyway, feel free to keep this thread going with any other suggestions people! This is a very versatile plant haha :)
