The plant looks nice, but after four weeks of flowering, I can't see much bud formation in these pics. Why did you decide to go with 13/11 instead of the traditional 12/12?

Just experimenting, like the beginning of outdoor season, with the long days.
At day 56, I switched 2 hours, to 11/13, and that's what I have it on now.
Everybody does 12/12, so I just thought I'd try something different.

those are gonna be some beautiful spiral ladybuds :) I love when you have nice long stems and the nuggies twirl around them like a winding staircase to heaven :)

Thanks everybody!
When I first flipped to the flower light schedule, I thought I'd try a 13/11 like the long days at the beginning of summer, but after 30 days of that, and still no buds, I decided to try an 11/13 like the fall days, and it seems to be working a lot better.
Maybe it was just a coincidence, but flowering started right away, and growth has been (to me) pretty good for 13 days.
I'm kinda puzzled by this bagseed though, because when she was small, was leaning heavily to the Indica side, but with age has been showing more and more Sativa.
This is the 4th seed I have grown from bagseed, all coming from 1 guy, who has only 1 supplier, but all seeds have been different ratio of Indica/ Sativa, with one of them being a heavy Sativa.:confused:
.
I forgot...... since day 25 I had been feeding with 0-15-11 every other watering except 3rd or 4th water and I would add some MG all purpose food (24-8-16).
I got some new stuff, and fed at 70 day with 1/2 tsp of Veg & Bloom, and a gram of MOAB.
Day 73, flushed with 3 gallons of PH'ed water, and then fed with 1 tsp Epsom Salt, 1 tsp Molasses, 6ml. Rock Resinator, and 1/2 tsp Veg & Bloom.

Sounds like you have everything on point :) My first grow was bagseed too....and nothing will ever compare to it. Very similar to what your saying about the structure. If it's OK I'll share a few pics of her...I was so proud of my "Ladybud" lol! Have you named her yet? Best part about bagseed....you can name it what you want ;)
Here's my Ladybud just before harvest......

Wow, that's pretty man!
No, I haven't even thought about naming her, IDK why........
Maybe if she gets buds big enough that i need to think about getting her a bra, I'll think about naming her.:-P
This one is coming out much better than my last two that were outside, and ended up finishing in November, so the last 4 weeks or so was really drawn out.
