Bless you oh knowledgable Zandor. You have described me perfectly.....I do believe I have about loved them practically to death. I am getting my new super duper microscope today so will be able to check the trichomes again and have learned my lesson about "improving" things (well I say that but really .....) I may have to go out and buy some sort of "Owner Off" type spray for them to keep me from picking on them so much. Should I keep them on the flowering nutes? Somebody mentioned using Budswel and ph'd water. What is your knowledgable thought on that?
