I am on day 58 from seed..and I just got in my new led pocket microscope and see more thn 25% Amber tricombs? I was suppose to start my flush tomorrow cause I was sur they would make it to day 75..but now I am confused on what to do. The buds are starting to get hard and dense and frost is all over them. I have a 2 tent setup one with 600 hps and the other with a total of 1200 led. Both tents are 4x4x6. I have been feeding them 1/2 flower nutes and was gonna make last nights feeding it's last since it is going to be flush day. I have 5 white widow 5 amnesia haze 1 purple kush which is 4 days younger thn other plants and one auto flower that was suppose to be a purple kush but I think seed company messed up because it is my biggest auto and not a hint of purple. So not sure what it is. The other plants in the tent are 5 more purple kush at day 33 and 2 northern lights at day 12. They are all packing on weight every day still but look like 2 of my ww are gonna be first done. The have had orange hairs for over a week or so and all hairs are starting to disappear. So please someone give me advice since this is my first grow EVER! I have also been giving plants hydro honey for last couple days and would like some advice on when I should stop that as well? Can I go all the way till harvest or should I stop after I flush tommorow? Please please please someone help, first grow and I have invested a lot of time and money on this, but I guess my main thing is I love growing! I think growing weed is my new passion! The white widow I'm talking about is the first 2 pictures.The taller plants are the amnesia haze.

Nah let em go atleast a week more. all those white white hairs are early. they will turn orange or mostly orange and then start to curl a bit and receed into the bud. Dont just check the cola, check a couple side branches to see how far behind those ones are aswell.

Day 62-All plants seem to be swelling and getting fat and sticky! The smell even with carbon filter, will hit you right in the face when you open room! So first 2 picks are my most "done" plants. The WW has the fattest nugs and the are getting hard as a rock. All other plants in these pics still have a couple weeks to go so only plant showing amber trichomes and as matter of fact I checked last night and now trichomes look like 50%! I know a few on this post say it's impossible but I do know what mature amber head trichomes!! The leaves are all changing colors a lil,and all plants have exploded with sugar! Flushed a few of the big plants so will be watching for plant to swell! Also can I give flushed plants hydro honey? Anyways day 62 and for other PK's are on day 47 I do believe. Here are the picks remember I'm only talking about first two pics and def know the rest of the plants have a few weeks to go

Good job on the grow man. I've never used LED's but am fascinated by them since they run so much cooler than a HID light. 90% of the bitch of growing indoors is the heat the HID's generate which LED growers generally don't have to worry about. I'm really interested to see some of your trimmed and dried buds to see how they compare with the HID buds. Perhaps jonny will give LED's a try in the future.

Yes that is biggest reason I got is because of having to turn up ac so much my house was an ice box..but I made a duct going from ac duct to directly in my HID tent! It is 600 w. But the bad thing about less are for me atleast maybe the $800 lights are better but I started off with just one 600w led and it was not near enuf so had to buy 2 more 300w panels to generate enuf light that I can see it penetrates deep inside leaves! But yes I am excited to see the dif too..so far hps are bigger plants and taller..but led are short but the fattest buds. And it penetrates more it seems som mid and lower buds get light too so they are much bigger then hps! So only time will tell

Keep us posted got you on my watch list.bongsmilie
Thanks man it means a lot! I did flush most of the plants today cause I figured it wouldn't hurt to atleast clean them. They seemed to like it and color show is even starting a lil. Should I still give bud honey or the fox farm big bloom is all organic so could I use that till harvest? Or should I give them all a good feading tomorrow with 1/2 tiger bloom?

The word flush is always a big debate on here, but if I was going to feed I would feed it something high in phosphorus and potassium
phosphorus = p -----potassium = k in the n-p-k scale. like m.o.a.b. (mother of all bloom). or something like that

Tiger bloom work?

You need maybe something like m.o.a.b or koolbloom dry they are very high in phosphorus and potassium, they stress the plant some what and it brings out the flavor and oils and help ripen the buds.
If you have a good flowering formula (synthetic or organic) from a reputable supplier or a properly amended organic soil, you don't really need a bottle of PK booster. That's just marketing jazz to siphon more money out of your wallet. I assure you, there are no tobacco or tomato farmers using such products. If my plants need more P&K, I just increase the amount of bloom formula I use which is higher in P&K.
