about how much time does it take to get some plants that are mature enough to bud? I am in college and i only have 10 weeks left til the end of the semester. is this enough time to get some plants around a foot or so with some buds growing or am i just wasting my time?
if ur plants are already vegged, then u can most likely flower the buds in time. if ur groin sativa, dont even bother, itll prolly take more than 10 weeks, but a hybrid would most likely finish in time. If you are running out of time to mature the buds, u can put the light hours to 8 hours light and 16 hours dark, this will "force" ur buds into maturity.
what do you mean by vegged? one of em is about 5.5 inches/14 cm and the other is about 3.5 inches. the nig one is just sprouting its fourth node. the other one is a runt thich looks retarded. ive pretty much given up hope.Quote:

vegged i mean it has already gone through the entire vegg stage, guess not! doesnt sound like youll be able to properly veg and flower in that amount of time, id just chop those fuckers!! unless u paid for the seeds, then u can veg em mad and get some clones to keep em goin!
Many variables ... depends on the strain and how you are growing them (dirt, hydro) and what light you are using and on and on.Quote:

Good Growing!
An example would be White Widow in hydro, HPS light, CO2 enrichment, in good to excellent conditions (the right temp, nutrient, ph, etc...)
After 2 weeks change to 12 hours for flower period. 8 to 10 weeks till harvest.
A early harvest say 6 to 8 weeks will still produce some very good bud just not as much or as strong.
Good Growing!
i still dont think that will be a suffiecient grow, the buds wont be able to mature in time, unless u have a pure indica, and ur plant will be small with only 2 weeks of veg, if u want nice big buds ur gonna have to veg for at least 3 weeks. u can always force the buds into maturity, just wont have as much trichome development, to fix that put it in a pitch black room for a cuple of days before u chop it, u can even flush it during this long nite cycle, and by the time u take the plant out of the dark it should have a sufficient amount of crystals developed!Quote:

first u can flower at any age you like, u just wont get the same yeild. second to flower u'll need at least7weeks on 12/12 so 50days should just b enuff 2do it. however these buds will not be fully mature unless its some early flowering strain like early girl or wotever others there r.good luck
