Thy're not ready yet. I would say at 12 weeks they should be about ready.

Yeah, at LEAST another 3 weeks. What kind of effect are you looking for: Cerebral/energetic high or couchlock stone?

It will start getting really big the last 2 weeks or so. Right now, all your hairs are white, and it's not very bushy yet (although it looks healthy and happy...nice job :thumbsup. She still needs time to fatten up and mature.

i'm thinking trying a stoner, stuck with the muchie high. What do you think? I also have a little low rider. Maybe I'll try experimenting with the two. I'll post a few pics of the little ladie. Any advice on how to plump her up? Thanks for the reply. I really been going crazy trying to see the colors of the trichs ( being color blind doesn't help )

The longer you wait, the more couchlock/stoned effect you'll get (because the THC converts to CBN). And the munchies are also associated CBN more than THC.

Your plant doesn't look like it's in the 9th week of flowering...more like the 5th or 6th. But don't worry, plants flower differently. I suggest waiting another 3 weeks at least, and then post some more pics. She isn't even close to being done yet.

Also, if you have a camera that can take macros, take some pics of the trichs up close and post them. We can tell you the trich color ratio

She looks great. Good job so far. I agree with the above posts...

Just keep doing what youre doing and be patient!

Goodluck.

I'm having some serious issues right now, I'm actually very upset about this. My leave are curling at the ends, turning black at the tips, and I seem to have found a good amount of fungas gnats. Also a good amount of mould on the lower buds. Being so near the end of harvest I'm feeling very helpless, I'm pretty down in the dumps about this, she's my baby! Please help guys, I'll get some pictures up soon.

lower te humitty in you grow duh

[Rezist420]

You know what?! there is no need for the sarcasim. Obviously lower humidity. That's not going to get rid of mould already grown. the gnats? Not that simple.. So unless your trying to help because you're a good person, then thank you. But if you want to act like a know it all take you're comments somewhere else. The humidity is the obvious answer. How do I get rid of the mould already there..?

Personally I'm new to this too, Haven't even started a grow yet.

However, I was talking to an older gent at my local dog park about a week ago. I can't remember exactly what caused it to come up, but he was telling me about a grow from many years ago. He said he had a mold issue (might have been during curing, not sure) He said he misted the buds with Everclear and the mold just shrivled up and died. I guess this could be an issue on a living plant, but I'd think some dry air and direct sun light would likely wipe out most molds. Followed by a good cleaning.

As for small flies. I had terrible fruit flies in my neighborhood this summer, No clue why. However I found a great method for controlling the population in my house...

Take a bowl, and a piece of fruit. Cut a semi large piece of fruit and place it in the bowl (I used a peach). Either use plastic wrap or a clear plastic bag to seal the fruit in the bowl. Then cut or poke a small hole in the plastic and place it where the flies are. Over a few hours the flies will find the bowl and the hole and go in to get at the fruit piece. Then go in put your finger over the hole and take the bowl outside and release the flies. Repeat as needed. After a while the fruit will dry up or mold and need replacing.

When I did this, the little suckers were flying all around me. After a few hours I'd caught over 100 flies. After 2 days I didn't see any except in the bowl.

Hope this helps.
