Hi payn4school, Yes those are trichomes. I will take more pic's . You should see them running up the stem on the big water leaves. I have never seen that much trichomes. Oh there are some more pic in Gen's grow. I'll get more but it's hard with a 1000 HPS in your face. Thanks. And the lucas formula is just one part micro to 2 parts bloom. Bring the PPM's up to what you want. I take it up till they can't stand no more, they love it.
