wtf. this shit sucks balls.

whats up everybody, one of my grows just turned out to be pretty shitty. the seeds are pretty good (Biddy Early-magnus genetics) the light is a 600watt hps, the soil is nuteless, and i watered with grow big and sweet grape for veg, and much less grow big to eventually no grow big, along with pro bloom and sweet grape for flower.

all reviews i have seen of this bud seems to be quite nice.
mine are shitty as hell.

they are in day 72 of flower and i have plucked off a couple buds to test dry them to see how they smoke. and it sucks balls, smells great on the plant one of em smells like straight cali meds, but like any old dried up plant once dried. there is not much thc overall, although some parts look pretty cracked out, and the actually buds are very small, many hairs, but no bud swelling ever really came.

the first almost 2 months of their lives i had to give them barely any light. like literally 2 26 watt cfls for each plant, horrrrrrible lighting i know, but i was waiting for my 150watt hps and my 600watt hps.. it took soooo long..

but once i got them i started using the nutes and runnign them 24/7 with the 150watter. then i switched to the 600 to flower. the buds seemed to get pretty full, but they are so fuckin loose and no swollen little "budlets" if u will lol.

and the inside is fuckin the lighest green ever as if it has another couple WEEKS to go or something..

PLEASE somebody help me out. wtf coulda caused this? ++rep if anybody can help..

i feel like just cuttin the fuckers down and throwing em in my backyard they r pissin me off, didnt even get me high with 4 big ass rips outta my 2 footer.

please help.. only grow to ever go wrong like this. they r a complete dissapointment.
what the fuck is the problem here?

bro, sorry to hear , you have any pics....I grew out some bigbud this summer, and ended up throwing it in the ditch, it was the worst weed I have ever seen. Buds were big, and dense, but it had zero trichs at all! sometimes when you work with hybrid strains, instead of getting "Suzie" the super hot 18 year old virgin, you end up with uncle Charlie instead! bad genetics.

yea i'll try and get a couple pics up in a couple min, there are def visible trichs and it smells great. but ugh.. some dissapointing fuckin smoke for running 600watts for over 850 hours...

anybody else with some mysteriously garbage weed lets hear it.. cant b alone in the world here...

bump.. anybody? i tested another nug, and even when i just hang dry, this shit is dry enough to start curing the next day!! wtf?!!

A picture is worth a thousand words, and would really help us, to help you.

dont chop keep it going an see what happens

here you go, sorry my sd card wasnt reading for the longest time idk y. but the brighter pic isnt so clear obviously, but the photo captured wut i wanted still, because the whole point of that pic is to show that the inside of the buds are very light in color. some bud is actually white.

dude i had the exact same problem on my first grow ever. I just harvested like a week ago btw. I had to flower them for 8 weeks and they were only one foot tall plants!! I just kept letting them grow and grow and grow untill they were about to die and then chopped them. The buds filled out a lot in the last two weeks or so, but not much increase in THC so idk what to say about that. Hope that helps a little

I've had a couple of bad runs with bad phenos but that's all a part of growing from seed.....

yea no shit lol, i wish i could grow clones, don't have any friends or anybody come to think of it that grows.

i got the seeds from a dispensary in socal. feminized biddy early. 14 for $50.

but what ur saying is that its just bad genetics, even though reviews are very good, its just that i got some shit seeds?

they had a pretty shitty veg state, very little, insufficient lighting. are very weak, thin brittle stems.
basically i have another one of these growing, but under almost optimal conditions, with good nutes, nuteless soil, and starting the plant off with a 150watt hps before switching to a 600watt hps when it gets a little bigger. do u think that no matter what, it will still be garbage?

Yeah bad pheno I don't know if bad genetics cuz I'm not familiar with the breeder...were those plants from clones from a seed you germinated or did you plant all the seeds and pick out males???

i planted the seeds, didnt pick out any males, they are fem seeds, and i didnt get any males.

And all were shitty...damn sounds like bad genetics then.....or you got the worst luck to get all the bad phenos <------(sarcasm)

Travel up north and get you a good clone....or try your luck with some seeds from attitude........thats a bummer bro though.I cloned a euforia mother and grew a room full of some bullshit hermaphrodites,with almost no type of power to it & It definitely didnt taste good so I couldn't smoke it....... so I get rid of it like reg....

yea.. such a dissapointment because my friends and i always bring back an ounce or two to ny when we visit a friend in hollywood.
and when we were told it was in the same categorey, u could imagine how i got extremely excited to grow a seed straight from a dispensary.

what a bummer indeed.

Is it just the pic, or are most of your fan leaves really gone? I had this happen to me with my first two grows - for lots of reasons, I lost most of my fan leaves, and that's it - the buds pretty much stopped growing at that point. The leaves are what makes them grow big and fat. Could be a combination of loss of leaves, and a rough start with not enough lighting.

+rep to u doe.. yessss i barely had any fan leafs because they were really tall and had much space between nodes.. but thats a big reason y i belive they didnt fill in too much and stayed loose and fluffy.

i got a couple more pics here. just took some gimme one second..

yeah i was thinking it was lighting issue myself... how far away was your 600w during flowering?

roughly.. 35 inches

y u thinking it was too much? because i never had a burn on any fan leafs.. i mean they all basically died off, but naturally, from the bottom up, the top leafs were perfectly nice and green the whole time..
