Can someone with abit of experience please help ?

Can you tell me if this plant looks ok ? It is nearly 5 weeks into flowering (12/12) and the buds look a little small. I have thought about cutting off the fan leaves as they seem to shade the buds. Please, some good advice would be welcome ???

Do not cut the fan leaves off. Your plant needs them. Your plant looks good, just give it time.

Thanks, im not gonna touch the leaves. I think im a little eager, no wonder people grow 10 at a time lol. Thanks !

Agreed, the Fan leaves gather energy for your plant.. acting like little solar panels.
If u are worried that it is blocking Buds then just try n tuck the odd one out of the way

Is this a indoor grow? what type of light?
If using hps I suspect light leaks

What strain is it? Some strains take forever to mature.

Light leak would not allow it to flower or turn hermaphrodite.

Hi sorry to be a pain, but what do you mean by strain, my plant has only been in flower 4 weeks !

The buds are a fine size for natural light.

He means what type of plant. Indica, sativa, hybred, bagseed? The buds look fine for it's age. They will grow, just be patient.

the plant is a hybrid from what i can see but mostly sativa based.
(you can tell by the leafes).
sativas can take up to 16 weeks of 12/12 to be ready for harvest but you really need proper lighting.

Thanks Luda
This is very helpful,....i need to be patient, although i was previously told it would be ready in 6-8 weeks. 16 weeks looks like enough time for some healthy buds to appear.
Thanks bud !
