i have added a picture sorry for lack of info they are indoors under 600hps bulb in a cool tube and have been
in flower for 4months now i know they are not ready because they are still growing the white hairs and not even 50% of them are brown yet

[elenor.rigby]

4 months.. there must be something we are missing? the photo is hard to see. does your timer work?

It looks to be on the sativa side. I have seen some pure sativas go 16-20 weeks. It is not too common but it happens.

they have been on 12/12 for 4months timer works fine yes that is ally on the wall bad move ?
i have been told u can put them down to 9 or 10 so i have now put them down to 10houres of light is that ok??
thanks for input

 

[BigBuddahCheese]

something else is wrong.. you might have light leaks or something?! 12/12 should be the only photo period you need no other bs like 9 or 10.

I mean even my lemon haze was 3 months tops.. that was forever!!! You're causing the extended flower somehow.. time to troubleshoot.

I beleive that all you will be doing by reducing the light is chipping away at your yeild a bit. It looks like it will be done real soon just hang in there. I am gonna rep you for your patience.

hmmm yea i though something isnt 100% right this is my 3rd crop now and this is the longest one but the other 2 run over aswell
they are in a wardrobe and i always have the doors shut appart from in morning when im watering them and the lights on

 

[lukeyyy]

would i effect it if i went and took a photo now while the light is off?

 

[bigv1976]

No it wont affect it but I bet that wardrobe isnt light tight. I am not sure how much of a light leak a plant will take but when the light is on look at where light is coming out and try to seal up some of the gaps and see if that helps any.

Could it be something to do with air circulation, not much air when trapped in a wardrobe??

no.

the dark period needs to be as close to 100% dark as possible. my guess is that your leaking light into the box at "night".

the pot looks fine, it looks like it can use another month though an thats not right, but it works.

if you do that often , then yes that will delay the hell outta them. once wont hurt.

what do the trichomes look like? leaves look full of N imo. looks weeks away

 

[lukeyyy]

the trichomes are looking lovely all the bud is covered in it and a lot of the leaved i took a bud of the lower part of the plant that wasent getting a lot
of light and it is really really lovely weed and when dried u can see the crystals really nice stuff!
there must be light getting in as you say over the weekend im going to plant bits of wood all arround the inside of the doors all the way arround to hopefully cure this problem
have been using normal compost with nutes

 

[lukeyyy]

they are lookin lovely but just been a slow process
