can anyone tell me why my plants are taking forever to mature
the packet says 2 months, but it's been nearly 3 and although it's nearly ready 3 months for non sativa seems long
is there a way to speed the maturation process up?
would co2 tablets help?
thnx in advance
close up and new photo taken today
pick above taken a month ago
and another female
and a ten fingered leaf!
click image for better quality
also how long too harvest
ps im new to this
and you can probably see i have nicked a few buds in desperation:rastasmoke:
What strain, what type of lights, what's the light schedule?
I noticed you had some pots with seedlings surrounding the flowering fem. Not a common sight, both in the same room at the same time. Is this an auto-flower strain?
When the breeder packs tell you it'll take 8-10 weeks in flower, that's generally with HID lighting, under optimal conditions. So if you're using CFL's, it can/will take much longer.
sorry

i remove the seedlings at lights out and place them under another bulp for 4hrs
they dont seem to mind ( rhinos ) untill i feel their ready for flowering, saves electric
ahhh. cool. I figured there was a good reason, lol.Quote:

ok thankyou
i have a magnifying glass but it's not strong enough
price here for decent scope is around £35 $70 *_* im skint just now
i guess i should stop with the nutes then

Getting close, but would hold off a bit for the final flush, unless in a hurry.
im in a hurry
