Wow i'm back in school! A lot to sift thru! But great info!

Want to hear my opinion? No? Well to bad! I think you said you were in the last week or so of budding. Well guess what! It's fall to the plant. Just as all plants start to change color and leafs start to fall off, your plant is more than likely going thru it's fall season. The buds start to take in all they can from the plant! Part of it's survival mode per-say. But since we don't allow seeding to take place on our plant, the plant I think is requiring more nutes! Last week of flowering you should be flushing! That is my opinion like it or not! I only say this because I grow White Widow and they alway's do this to me about a week or two before the end of the flowering cycle.
