hrm this is looking worrying!

Hey guys, i woke up this morning to check on my plants, and the widows buds are still so tiny (im gonna take a picture for you to make u see what i mean) there about 1 inch tall and half an inch wide (i measured them today) and the pistols (those little white hairs that are sticking out of the bud) about 55% - 60% of them have turned a reddish/orange/brownish color and sort of look withered the way they should look when the plant is comming close to harvest, the plants are 40 days into flowering which means they should in theory have 40 days left (for white widow) but how come nearly all the pistols have turned orange/brownish is it ready for harvest early ??? i hope not because the buds are so petite! its not worth harvesting.. well maybe get a joint out of it, i don't understand why the buds havnt fattened out before the pistols turned colors? or is this normal and im just worrying? this is my first grow with a total of 170w on 2 small plants in a cupboard, check out my earlier posts for my setup.. so i should at least see some decent buds, no? anyways, thanks for your time, please help! :)

Take care,

Peace.

Tough to say. Could be a number of things such as soil, hydro, temperature, lighing, nutrient, etc...

Good Growing!

I just checked the url you posted, everything seems to be in tip top shape with my setup i can't see why this is happening.. it brings a tear to my eye :confused: :( :mad:

did the light cycle ever get fucked with? that can play a major role in pre-maturity, as in they mature a lot faster. never actually seen it happen though! that sux man!
