Very true, I guess I was just considering down sides to be things that would harm the plant or screw up it's growth cycle. Mature plants do begin to flower quicker and tend to produce bigger better buds. Although I have read much about SOG growers who claim a plant flowered from seed can produce...
There are some out there that are known to have that type of effect on users. The only one I remember off the top of my head is Apollo 13 (Sativa Phenotype - Reserva Privada). I could be wrong but I think BOG used some Apollo in his breeding stock...yes...it seems like maybe his Lifesaver? Check...
Not a problem. Some people flower plants from seed then revert for clones. Or even continue to flower them. You are perfectly safe at 6 weeks. Although....6 weeks is generally enough time to see preflowers, some strains take longer than others I guess.
Yeeeeeeah, I have been checkin my ladies daily lately but im still confused on the clear/cloudy thing...I think I have it though and I would say those are clear? But then again I am convinced I have clear and amber together but that doesn't make any sense now does it!

I have actually heard, and experienced differently. My plants did most of their verticle growth during the first two weeks of flowering. I had just repotted 5 days before and hit it with some serious nutes, but yeah....they got big =)
first pic is the day I started flowering and the second is 2...
Hmmmmmmmmm yeah I gotta watch this one! I am thinking about trainwreck....are they the feminized from greenhouse? or did you pick up clones?

Yeeeeeah I know what you are talkin about. That's not quite it. All mj plants have those at every node. I think what you are talking about is in the first picture. What you are lookin for is something more like the second

Ok after checking your gallery pictures I gotta say its definitely the lighting. See how far your little bud stems are growing away from the plant? And they have only got a minimal amount of hairs. Under more intense lighting conditions the buds grow like little puffy cotton balls right at the...
It sounds like just a combination of genetics and lighting. More sativa dominant straints will grow taller thinner buds that "stretch". Indica dominants grow shorter, fatter, denser buds.This "stretching" is also a common side effect of inadequate light source. Nothing will fatten up your buds...
Not too much to report. All plants still seem healthy..probably because I am still crossing my fingers :mrgreen:
The one small lollipop afgan bag seed plant is still doing the best. Super fat cola, stinky, sticky, delicious :blsmoke:
All Hindu Kush plants are now starting to frost and fill...
Could be a couple of things or a combination of both.
Looks either like...obviously new bud growth. Or it could be that the buds are growing in a string, fluffy way due to either genetics or poor lighting. Or it could potentially be all 3. So tell me more about genetics...lighting...all the...
