Love this time of year.

can anyone help with my question? are my plants going to go through the rapid growth before flowering? or will they stop growing as much now that there are preflowers? See above for photos... +rep for help

They at most will double in size during flowering. They may grow 2 or 4 feet or inbetween or less or more who can tell the future?

cool, thats all I wanted to know.... that they've still got some growth in them. I'll be happy with another 1.5ft tbh. Its my first grow so im hoping they stay healthy. Thanks again

Since this thread is about budding, how about we see budding eh? Here are a few.

Back with some macro shots.
I'm kind of surprised mine already have some trich's forming in the middle of week 2? is that normal?
This is my first outdoor plant really and so far things are good on it. I have had a small amount of PM though and sprayed it down so far its doing fine.

It was my understanding that the growth spurt occurs DURING the first 2-4 weeks of flowering depending on strain. Also with the buds I've heard that with indica strains buds will have rapid development at first, and then slow down and then pack more weight on at the end again. Where as a sativa has a longer flowering time and the buds usually have a slow consistent growth rate throughout flowering.
With and indica, you're looking at a plant that will double in size most likely. A sativa such as blue dream will usually at least double to triple in size while flowering. A friend I know has a 5 foot blue dream mother that he wanted to throw outside and flower, but a 5 foot blue dream may end up as a 12 foot plant in the end so he decided to use it for cloes only.

Anyone else showing yet?

here's mine. it's a bubba kush in a ten gallon. just started flowering here.

My girls are budding and are as stinky as a dry room. Sorry for the low quality pics, I took em with my cell. I'll get better pics this weekend. *Pinky swear*

Better watch it with the celly pic's my friend, I've known people that got busted that way. Just a word of caution.

All pics are saved on my memory card. Usually I transfer them to my comp the moment I take them. Thanks for the concern.

All cellular pics are geotagged, whether you transfer them to a computer or not the tag is still there. Doubt you have to worry though. I take pics of mine and send em to my boys all the time, still here typing!

Sorry about the blurry pics, still trying to dial in on the macro shots.

All started from seed mid to late April. These were all taken about a week ago.

4 plants that are between 6-7' tall. This is the farthest I've ever gotten growing outdoors so I'm pretty excited!

already seeing crystals too. shes gonna be candy.

Back with some newer pics of that bubba kush, she's about half way through flowering now. I still havent given her any extra nutes and she seems to be fine.

blue berry cheese

I'm gonna have some more pics tomorrow. I tied my plants down a week ago and haven't checked on em since. Can't wait to see them.
