Airi open buds

I've been growing a beautiful cyber crystal female from clone for the past 3 months in an Aerogarden... It has been flowering for about two months and a half now longer than usual for this strain. I started feeding the standard Aerogarden tablets recommended for tomatoes. I switch to just water on the 6th week thinking that I was close to finishing the grow. However I started getting a lot of brown leaves and dying of lower fan leaves and it was working its way up. I used just water for about three weeks and I think I might have starved her for a while. I then switch to a different hydroponic nutrient solution 5-11-26. I noticed that the plant started shooting up again and new pistils and flowers were developing all over the older buds. However the bud is still very airy and open and not dense.It also still has alot of white pistils. I was wondering what the cause of this was. At the 8 week mark I trimmed a bud, about 1 grams worth dry, then I let it dry and even cured it and it was still very open and didn't smell to strong. It actully smelled like cut grass that has dried a bit. Are these characteristics of the strain? Or is it the light that Aerogarden uses? or perhaps was it because of the incorrect feeding that I was using??? Any advice to help this grow or future grows using the same strain and mother would be greatly appreciated. I have a lot of time invested in this momma and would like to see her produce for me in the future I know she has a lot of potential. She was the alpha out of ten total 4 of them females.. I added some early pics as well as the two latest ones(130 and 132).

you do not have enough light on those buds and the nute ratio [1-2-5] is wrong .add more light[2700k] and change to a 1-3-2 or 1-3-3 or even a 1-2-1 ratio fert if you can get them.but at 10 - 11 weeks flowering it may be to late to save them friend:(

Thanks you're probably definitely right on the timing to save this girl since I'm approaching 3 months of flowering. I took her clones from the momma and she is doing great so hopefully on the next grow I can do better with better lighting and the right nute mix. I have moved away from the Aerogarden to my own home built hydroponic set up with 120 watt tri-band led's in the middle and two 65 watt cfls at the corners. I covered it in mylar and have an exhaust duct with no fan just passive exhaust but the temperature seems to stay at 70 to 75 f with that setup so I don't see any problems with it. The picture is a little red because I had the cfls off. I will try that nute ratio on this next grow my clones are in week two of vegging and will start to flower next week. Thanks for the reply it will be real helpful on this next grow! :smokin: If you have any other suggestions don't be afraid to be frank I rather get it straight to do it right than have it sugar coated and have a shitty a grow. Thanks again mate.

they are cool for a hobbie experiment typs thingy. But not for large producing plants... More light will help....:thumbsup:
