Buds growing bigger

[Jackson5150]

I am day 22 into flower and these buds look a little small. What are your thoughts......strain is GG4 and setup up is hydro. Anything that can be done to help growth

Make sure to keep them to get 2 hours of darkness every day from the time they germinate. This is one of the best way to grow them faster.

They look on track to me in fact doing really well for 22 days. in a few weeks they will fatten up nicely

If they were seedling then I’d be with you on the 2 hours but these plants are flowering so they need around 12 hours of dark to keep flowering so they don’t revert to vegging.

I currently have them on a 12/12 schedule

Well I am happy to report they are looking great. Here we are on about day 39 of flower. I do have a question about the red hairs that are growing. Will those turn green as they progress more thru flower?

Looking nice.

Gettin‘ chunky over there. Very nice!

Looks like snowcapped mountains.

I know i feel like I am getting impatient but I want to make sure I don't mess this one up. I am going into week 7 of flower. And believe its typically 8-9 weeks. I know they say to cut when the trichomes are milky looking. Here the latest pictures

trichomes

clear. speedy to racy buzz

cloudy. not as racy with more of a sedated buzz

amber. more sedated buzz

Most like a mix of 10 to 20% amber. It gives a good mix of a buzz. Not to uppity but not to sedated.

It's all on what type of a buzz you like. I would start taking a few that have a mix of clear and cloudy. Then as they mature with more amber mixed in. Then let the rest go full amber. They mature from the top down. As the lower buds take a little longer to ripen.

hope this helps puffpuffpass

 

[WeedHopper]

Agree totally.

 

[JamsWeller]

I also agree this flowers must need 10-12 Hrs Darkness.

High pk fertilizer, growers recharge, humic acid and a blast of silicates with every feed
