need some opinions
Hello All,
I need some opinions. Some info first, I had to leave town for a couple of weeks and had a friend watching the house, animals and girls for me. Had him just add a gallon of distilled water a day for me and check it with my meter for 5.8 ph and approx 1500 ppm while away. when i got back the girls looked great, one was really wispy with no real yield available so i harvested her going to use it for butter(sorry no pics available before harvest) This is what the room looks like now (pics below) ive done reading, the strain i'm working with is called the doctor its a mix of sweet skunk and great white shark, from all my reading it says that sweet skunk grows "buds with long foxtails of stacked calyxes and takes 10-14 weeks of flowering to fully mature" hightimes Jan2006 article on page 82
I started flowering nov 17th so i am at 10 weeks.
now the ?'s i have are...
how do the girls look?
i've continued with just adding distilled water is there anything else i should add? since i possibly have up to 4 more weeks.
any info would be greatly appreciated:D

PS. been snipping bottom buds that are matured, dry and cure for a week or so and had my patient try it. he says taste good, had a strong high with body numbing effect. which is why the doctor was picked he has chronic pain from neuropathy. so i'm happy about that.:rasta:
thanks again for all the help and support

What nutrients are you giving them?
You should raise the light you are not covering the outer edges of your grow. I know close is better but in your case raise it up to increas your coverage area.

Hi Zandor,
i haven't been giving any nuts, when i left town i figured that it would be ok to have my friend just add water which should be fine for last 2 to 3 weeks to help clean it up for harvesting. before that i was using bc bloom and boost 2-1. it wasn't until recently that i realized that the mix included a "sweet" and the characteristics of it. i have enough small buds from the one i did harvest to make a few pounds of cannibutter. which is cool i'll bake sugar cookies. :) it was after harvesting that i did more research trying to figure out why the buds weren't as full as i had expected them to be. i kinda thought that there might be a chance of the girls being overripe by the time i got home.
i would love to raise my light more but it's not possible with my set up i flowered to late, http://boards.cannabis.com/hydroponi...more-help.html
live and learn won't do that on my next grow.
the pics posted are after i have removed the wire to completely harvest the one girl and then just weighted down the branches that weren't cooperating with me thats why the blue dice and frog in the pics (my daughters donation)to trying to get them to behave.
please let me know any suggestions you might have
any advice would be greatly appreciated

Ok so you started your flush then.
I looked as chose as I could at your pictures and it looks like you underfeed them. When in flower and expecialy late in flower the plant's requirement are for more P&K and less N if you stoped everything the last 3 or 4 weeks then you missed the change to pack on weight to your buds. If you can't raise the light then you need to try to tie the plants down or maybe place a screen over the top fo them and push it down so only the buds poke through and reach the light.
Hey there is always the next grow but at least this time you can get something and that is way better then many people get.
Happy growing.
