Question about colas

So since this is my first go round I'm just curious... Looking at these colas in about week 6/7 of flower- will they likely continue to bulk and fill in those gaps until flower? Just trying to wrap my head around what to expect. Here are a few pics to see what I mean. The last one is pretty full, but should get bigger in the next few weeks I would imagine... Right? :)image.jpegimage.jpeg image.jpeg

Dependa on the conditions light/setup. But yes they do fill out with the right feeding schedule :blsmoke:

With that much age, they are likely as bulky as they will get. They are however continuing to ripen. Now would be a good time to start checking trichrome color.

What strain and how long did the breeder say it takes to flower them? I would expect them to get bigger if you're only in week 6/7 like you say... mine swell up the last few weeks...are you using flouros?

They will thicken up, especially in the coming weeks. You have time yet so show some patience and leave them alone for now. 3-4 weeks from now when u look back at these pics you'll see the difference

I am mainly using the 150 equiv CFL's. These were bagseed so strain and flowering times are anyones guess. Guess I will just have to be patient... Or I will at least try! ;)

all the hairs are white (thats the bud growth) wait antill the clusters of whites hairs shop growing and 90% of the white hairs trun orange
and then check the trichomes to havest at the right time
this way you will pull the maxum yeild you can get from the plants

because your using a makeshift tent with half ass lights don't be upset if they don't fatten out.
like if you are seriously that worried maybe consider making the WHOLE room reflective not just the first foot.

Lol- thanks for noticing my low budget/half assed set up ;). I guess I wanted to see exactly how low budget I could go since this was more of an experiement than anything. That combined with the fact that I used 8 bagseed and thought I would be lucky to have 4 females out of the 8 and ended up with 8 baby girls! Ugh- space issues! Ra;) Now I know how that octomom lady felt! But seriously- once I have this grow under my belt I will def make some improvements for my 2.0 grow ;)

Hmmm... I didn't think so... But I'm guessing you ask because you see something in my pics that might indicate as such? Do tell! And I will have to do a check to see about any light leaks :)
I noticed in your pics what looks to be a checkered pattern on the wall through your tent, if the material is thin enough to see through light from outside can potentially leak in and slow /ruin your grow, I'm pretty new myself so take anything I say with a grain of salt, just an observation

All I could think of when i read "lookin good for cfls" was "pretty fly for a white guy" Lol. ;). Yeah I have been kinda pleasantly shocked by how these ladies have cooperated and kept grown like... Well- weeds.... Esp since I have no background here at all- just a motivation to grow my own and keep my money for other things... Like hookers and blow... I KID! Im actually a married mom of two who lives in the burbs... And I am growing for medicinal purposes for both my self and hopefully once I have a hold of the basics and feel confident enough- to grow a strain similar to Charlottes Web for my 3 and 9 year olds who both have epilepsy and some other genetic conditions. We have a legal Rx for the Charlottes web, but since it isnt covered by insurance it is super expensive and we have to jump through hoop after hoop to even get the stuff since we have no dispensaries yet... Thanks everyone for the nice comments :)

Oh! That grid is actually printed on that side of the paper and the plants are inside a closed wooden cabinet that I have used those rubber edges you use with door seals to try and make sure I dont get any errant glimmers inside ;). Shew! But you have a good eye for detail! ;).

Yikes! 250 is up there, but that is also how much I would be paying per month, per kid... So i guess if I ended up finding some suitable seeds for 250 it would still be a damn good investment ;) Yeah- thats why my maiden voyage into "farming" was with some serendipidously found seeds. Thanks and good luck to you too man :)
