Hey folks!
So I grew some bud at home over the summer before I got back to college this week. Yielded about 2 zips, but when I smoke the weed whether it be rolled or in glass I don't get high. My friends also agree with me and when we go to smoke from the headstash we get blazed as shitttt as usual...

Any ideas wtf is wrong?

-Bagseed grow
-Buds look like headie quality (TONS of crystals)
-Buds are very fluffy and stretched for the most part
-Temps were between 75-85F
-Grown 12/12 under a 90w LED, 2x 105w 2700K CFLs, and 2x 105w 5000K CFLs
-Flowered 6-7 weeks until amber trichs started to show in numbers
-Dried 4 days hanging, now in paper bags

FYI:
I grew outdoors last summer and got fine bud using the same harvesting/drying method and the buds were fire but didnt look half as good as my most recent buds.

Whats the deal with my bud?!?!

not even an autoflower flowers out in 6-7 weeks. Maybe you did harvest early? Just cant see amber trichromes at 6-7 weeks of flowering. heck most samples at 7-8 weeks on northen lights or la woman or somthing else dried in mini-wave will catch us a good buzz. Not sure what happen there accepted impatience. Or maybe poor light and food . lack of root space,improper soil. or all of the above. or just what about every newer grower does and not practice the art of patience..:thumbsup:

Thing is I harvested my nug last year WAY too early and the bud was fire.
and as far as I know most indica dominant plants will be ready to harvest after 7 weeks, I harvested on day 58 so I dont think that was the case.

I noticed seeds in a couple buds so they must have hermied right before I harvested could the THC have been "stressed" out of them?

After my last harvest I noticed that one of my plants wasn't so potent. Cured it for 2 months, problem solved :jointsmile:

That sux I just noticed a hermie probel myself. My super lemon haze :( hope I caught it in time, got 3 girls in there would hate for them to turn as well.

I'll be harvesting the lemon haze probably tmrw. I hope the high is still there.

Hopefully curing will help my issue in the past couple days the potency has def. increased but they still look WAY too dank to be giving me just a little buzz after a fat steam-roller bowl.

You harvested too early and didn't dry/cure your buds long enough. Patience is a virtue. Case closed.

You planted a seed that didn't have the genetics to produce THC. It can happen to one, or many seeds all harvested from the same plant while others may produce an abundance of THC. Resin, or trichomes are just indicators, and do exist without the presence of THC. This happens especially with unstable cross breeds in the first few generations.

you picked it way too early. Yea there might be Trichomes, but they're not mature and they arent as pyschoactive yet.

Hey bobjob4u I didn't think 7 weeks was possible either but I'll be damned I have and indica plant going to harvest today. Today is week 7 exactly from the day it went in on 12/12. The trichs went cloudy ten days ago and have about 30% amber and all cloudy now. Had to start flushing way before I normally would. Not sure of the strain these were started from some seeds I had. Buds are very nice size covered in crystals and red hairs. The buds are so dense you cant even squeeze them. Have a sativa in with her same amount of time on 12/12 and is a good 3 weeks from harvest. Who knew? I'm using an aircooled 1000w hps though in a climate controlled room with all the proper neauts to make them happy! Oh and the plant thats finished today vegged for about 8wks then straight to 12/12. :rasta:
