wassup everybody, nice plant to the guy above me btw.
so i have a bagseed plant that i just harvested. it been dryed and is now in jars . my question is why is my bud so dry and wispy? the buds are not dense at all.did i do something wrong? the plant looked healthy the whole time.is it the light ? was it because it was a shitty bagseed? the bud gets you high as shit, but the buds are all super outdoorsy lookin. my grow is linked in my sig if u want to see.do i need a bigger light to get denser nugs? or better seeds?how dense is your final product?here are some pics
It kinda has many diff reasons bro,
Lemme just say that bagseed ISNT bad!!!!
Bagseed gets a bad rep for some reason, but think about it....If it was shitty low grade bud, would you have bought it in the first place? and more importantly, if it was shit quality bud, why would you wanna grow it?..Odds are that you got pretty ripped when you toked the weed, you found the beans, and thought "thats pretty decent bud, i wonder if the seeds will grow"
Would ppl be calling it bagseed, if the guy who sold you the weed said, " i have some killer bubblegum/white widow."???? no,you'd prolly refer to it by its strain name...see what i'm saying
Bagseeds only real problems are 1) you dont know anything bout the strain,ie indica or sativa.,which for example,can make it tough to keep under control if you have limited height etc..2) you dont know whether the seeds are viable.
Alot of ppl use bagseed for their first grow as they dont want to waste money on good seeds,which is wise, but they get pissed and rag on it, when their sativa bagseed out grows their micro cab..
Anyhoo,
Firstly some strains are light yielders, wispy and less dense than other plants of the same age...
CFLs type grows can be wispy(if you dont have enough of them), and are prime example of MJ grown without enough light.
HID lights like the HPS, If used correctly, will give more useable light/lumens per watt,a larger light 'footprint' and will result in very dense bud, on most strains, other than those which are naturally wispy.
secondly, any problems that arose during vegging or flowering, will all lessen yield, as the plant may not be able to access the correct nutes, for example, due to PH lockout/over using nutes/wrong NPK levels in nutes
Any probs which go unresolved, will lessen the availability of the 'building blocks' in the compost.
Thirdly, Heat/cold both effect growth, too cold and it'll stunt growth, too hot, and it'll stress the plant which can also stunt growth.
Those are but a few exmples of why bud can be wispy...
If you grew some dank weed that knocks you on your ass, you should be stoked..
Once you get your growspace dialled in properly, you'll soon be gettin more density.
i hope you're pretty stoked & thanks for sharing
