HARDDON....HOW DID YOU GET YOUR BUD THAT THICK???
good question one id like 2 know as well i asked an he said it just grew that way,lucky.
I think Harddon got those buds that way cause he waited as long as you need to wait to let them grow till done plus did most or all things correctly. I think he said 40 days flowering?
If you want your buds to stay thick, use an Mh for vegging, and an Hps for flowering. Avoid using just an Hps for vegging. You get stretched out budsites that result in light, wispy, stretched out buds.
For best results though, use an Hps for flowering, but add an Mh for about 6 of the 12hrs of light. That will keep things thick, and chunky. Use CFL's or Mh bulbs for vegging. Good luck.
durban cant get buds thick
Well if those pics of yours are showing flowers into 20 days...ie...just under 3 weeks....
You will have huge and fat buds.
Those are amazing for 20 days worth of flowering.
Just outstanding.....they dont even swell until like week 5 and 6...so...the best is yet to come....
However, I see some problems on your fan leaves and I would be more concerned about them than bud size right now....
You have fan leaves that are growing yellow by the minute....thats awfully early for that to happen in 20 day flower, dont you think?
Some yellowing here and there is natural, but not so close to the flower buds at this state...usually its the main stem leaves going....but your flower leaves are going fast....even the newer ones are yellowing at the tips.
There are some leaves with the dreaded brown patches over the stem skin....and some of the leaves are already dried.
Is this the way DP grows? I have never grown it. So I cant say its abnormal.
But if this is an 8 week flower plant, and you are at day 20, something is not gonna make it.....your plant wont have the leaf to produce the energy the plant needs to sustain life....
Maybe DP flowers in 5 or 6 weeks maybe....but its gonna be a race from what I see.
Do you have everything under control?
shot for the reply harddon,
I think everything seems in order,may have over fert,so am dosing the babies up with some evian mineral water.
as far as the leaves going yellow midstem, i cant put my finger on it.the plant seems well strong and the buds are looking super,i think with it being summer and the heat of the light,it might get a little warm in the day....other than that i dont know dude??what do you think?ill take a few more pics now to post...
ill post a few more when my light gos off,please keep me informed on what you think harddon!whats your email?
