Thanks all, yea i know what a trichome is, I use a 60-100x mini pocket microscope to check they have gone from clear to milky to amber..
I use nutes, I do the Fox Farms feeding schedule and I use 6x100 CFLs (26w each) 5.5 - 6K for veg and 2.3 - 3K for flower.. And I grow in a Rubbermade stealth setup. Do I need to move to a HPS setup and ditch the Rubbermade / CFL setup? I have seen quite a few success stories on here from people using the Rubbermade setups...

Thanks again all

And like FlyinPolynesian says, what are you using for light? They really are very wispy, like they were grown with not enough light.
batlin Reviewed by batlin on . What am I doing wrong with my harvest? Hey Everyone.. thanks for reading.. I have completed my first year of growing and love it.. but in the end I have harvested about 8 plants and only one of them have gotten me stoned.. the other are like.. litteral.. crap weed.
