You usually should get a nice last swell close to the last 2 weeks of flowering. I wouldn't harvest early man, I'd leave it.

Hey team,

Im on my 5th week of flowering my ladies. Im going to introduce molasses to get my buds to start to bulking up. Can anyone tell me the best way to mix it in with my water? Ive read it before but i cant find the thread where i saw it. I think its like half hot water + half cold water. But not sure. Thanks

The way I do it is I put a little water in the bottom first (Doesn't matter if it's warm or cold), add my molasses and shake like hell, I then run water slowly and put in the remainder of the nutes, while the water is running still. Always has worked for me, maybe it will work for you as well.

Also FF nutes are good but are you using both tripacks? If you aren't you should try to invest in the Open sesame, beastie bloomz and cha ching tri pack.

As far as when to feed, every feeding. That's the way I do it, and my plants have always liked it.

I very much agree, damn looking good. You can definitely tell that it's milking up those trich's now, and you should be getting amber here pretty soon if not already.

Whats a good place to order FF nutes from and exactly what do I need to order? I have to order online since there are no grow shops anywhere near me. Thanks.

What's up 250. Here are a couple of updated pics of the girls. My buds look small, can anyone tell me why or are they still going to get bigger? Some of the pistils are turning orange and brown but only a few. From looking @ the pics, can anyone guess how much time left I have in flowering before harvest? Anymore info would be helpful too with this first grow:peace:

Do you use any flowering additives.Like beastie bloomz or cha ching.I am using triple carbo-blast and heavies for plumping the buds up.And i would say you are at least 6 wks out IMO..:peace:

Since it's more Sativa looking as Aladdin stated, you've got about 8 or so weeks left (General rough estimate). Looking at the trichomes will definitely help you determine better though. Regardless you've still got awhile, a general estimate is Indicas 8-10 weeks Sativas 12-14 weeks, of course this also depends on the type of high you want but we'll get into that when you're closer to harvest.

Edit: Looking good Sp4ce keep it up dude.

Lol yeah it's starting to get to the hard part of the grow, but the wait is always worth it, you know that lol. The trichomes seem to me to be right on schedule, looking good dude can't wait for harvest day.

Thats what i want from this grow.Couch Lock...lol
Click to expand...
Yeah this stuff creeped up on me, definitely a creeper/couch lock for sure.

As far as your grow, with 10 weeks you should get a damn nice couch lock high. I think you'll be happy with letting it go for 10 weeks plus with the 2 week flush this time around you're golden my friend.

All that's left after that is the dry/cure mhmm white berry yum num.

Damn it.Just had a branch crack almost all the way off.Held it in place and wrapped it with floral tape to hold in place.
I don't know if this will save it or not.The damn bud was heavier than it looked.Went to move to lid off and crack.
Will have to wait and see it i saved it or not.If not it will be a early taster i guess.DAMN,DAMN,DAMN,DAMN.
I am a FCKING dumbass.
