looks like you still got heat problems. and also to me they look stretched or something. how close is your light to the buds? Maybe try getting the lights closer to the tops about 6 inches away.

The summer has been pretty hot the past two weeks or so. 30C outside and perhaps 33C inside the closet. We've since changed the on-hours to 1am to 1pm so it isn't so hot while the lights are on.

Because of a tall plant the lights couldn't get further down without touching this plant. But now the buds on this plants have weighed it down so I've moved the lamp further down so it's about 10 cm from the top of the tallest plants and about 30 cm from the smallest plants.

It almost seems like your WW has been handled a lot. Theres few crystals and hairs on it. I would just harvest now cause from the looks of it those buds are only gunna get worse

Hello all

These White Widows have been flowering since May the 2nd - that's almost three months! - and yesterday I thought they were ready for harvesting because most of the pistils have turned brown. But today it's like some have turned white again and now I'm not sure.

About 2 days ago I changes the light's on-time from 6 am - 6 pm to 1 am - 1 pm because i thought the heat of the day might be too much for the plants when the heat from the lamp is added. Could this have something to do with them looking ready? The day the light was changes I turned it off at about 2 pm (so it had been running for 8 hours) and it was then turned on again at 1 am.

I've tried taking a look at the trichomes but I think they're hard to see properly even with a 30x hand microscrope. They look pretty much clear to me, perhaps with a slight opaqueness to them, but not much.

We've started flushing them two days ago, should we just continue this or what? And how long do they have left?

Thanks in advance!

Have no Idea what that girl is but when I saw it I thought they don't look anything like the white widows I just got through growing! Hope it is good though. Good luck and I think it is time to chop and hang.

I HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM! My plants have tons and tons of white hairs, but the buds aren't thickening out. All the fan leaves have dropped off, and it's just trim and buds and hairs. I've been flowering for about 10 weeks so far...

It's because you are using CFL's for flowering.
