Yes it is normal as the plant uses sugars in them and no longer needs them, they'll fall off if no longer needed, any purpling yet on the buds? My tops 2 are getting massive imo, and the purple is spreading to the rest of the plant, 1 more week if i can stand it.

2 days past 7 weeks Flower. I see very few if any Amber trics yet, areas are definently still bulking up. The wait continues. Popcorns are becoming penny sized :), these should and will get larger if i wait a few more weeks on those areas......unsure if i should or want too. I'm trying to hold off on snipping the top 4 which are getting massive as they seem to be getting close, and i would like to harvest her all at once, and the lower heads seem to be filling out. These lower heads used to be more leafy than there were cones, seems to be evening out and going more towards cones now.

Dunno if anyone is still following but i'm still holding off on cutting, i'm at a day past 8weeks, still no amber trics, and she's still packing on weight. Fan leaves are seaming to be non existant now from flushing/molasses, but she's still going strong and i can obviously tell shes spreading out filling out between the single bud leaves in the nugs with more calyx's, and they are swelling as well, but no where near the size i figure they will finish at (dosent quite look like a seed is in them, not large enough!). Lower buds are packing on as well, which is what i was hoping for, but not as much as i wanted lol. Those yellow fan leaves in the top head buds are easily pulled out once dead enough, this wont affect her potency will it?....I believe 9 weeks will be it, or 63days. I've been flushing for almost 4weeks i think.

57Days Flower

Thanks guys, i'm going to harvest this sat i beleive, if i see no amber before then i may push her longer, i'm just unsure of how much larger or potent she will get at this point, i'm at 58days. I'd like a one hitter if at all possible.

lookin very nice esp from a 70w hps. i wouldnt worry about the fan leaves. they prob woulda stayed longer had you not done such a long flush but theres nothin you can really do about that if youre unsure when the strain really finishes.

Tommorrow is half way through week 8, she's still packing on weight, and i'm seeing some fresh white pistils up top and on various other buds, i clipped off a small sugar leaf (budleaf) from one of the large cola's, and upon inspection @ 60x all trics are clear to milky, unsure of percentages, but with smaller surface resin heads turning a redish color, though i was lookin at a purplish leaf, and the bottom side. But almost all milky stems/clear to milky heads on the trics. Some of the calyx's are getting beafy! There are clearly defined flowering clusters larger than my thumb. Top 2 are 2-2.5" in diamater and about 4"-4.5" Tall.

9 Weeks today

Do plants typicaly condense as they pack on weight, bud size is still getting larger, definitive grouped bud heads coming out of the masses as there swelling, their dense as hell. Just a little longer!

Well i had to go ahead and cut it today, i have family coming in at the end of the week......ala must be done drying, though i do wish i could have gone a few more days But i do have some amber.

So i ended up cutting her this morning, took a few hrs for it to go on, and i finished with 83.5g:

80.8g Larger
2.5g popcorn

4.5g Trim

Ended with both tops being 15g a piece, very nice IMO. Hopefully they will smoke good, i imagine ending with 1oz Dry.
