6th week of flower, very little trichs

I'm running 5 strains and only the Ace of Spades is lacking in trichs, only about 10 percent of what the other strains have. Everything seems to be going great otherwise, I don't get it, I'm chalking it up as the phenotype I got. Any Ideas would help, I got 2 more AOS for the next grow and thinking about eating them and replacing with a strain I know better. Oh yeah, also no smell or stickiness either and the buds are fat.

From the AOS I've seen grow they are more purple than tri covered. Purple is good for bag appeal. I say as long as I'm medicated then I don't care what it looks like.

Trying to upload a pic but I'm on dial-up...Fuck! anyways, more info then:Nutes are DG grow-bloom-protekt and a nitro boost, feed every 2 days I use the nitro boost is because one strain yellows early and often. Soil is coco blend

Several things you can do, try to increase your PK nutes as mentioned, increase sulfur supplementation, supplement with UVB lighting, or if youre into the stuff you can try Snowstorm or some of those other products, but it might be too late for you to use them...

And by upping the nutes, I mean do it incrementally, not a heavy shot all at once.

Here is the Ace of spades in question. I did use the search and did finally find someone with the same situation but it took a while. It looks like it could be excess of nitrogen. I'm going with a 0-5-4 pk booster with 1.5% of mag and 1% of sulfur and DG bloom on the Aos the rest of the way(3.5 weeks) and quitting the DG grow and nitro boost on the rest. Any other suggestions????????????IMG_2020.JPG

Nitrogen, a bit lacking, P K booster probable aided that. But the plants look fantastic! And remember, genetics play a role we cannot alter. Keep em green, looking good....

Thanks, and I agree keep em' green. The first 6 weeks in flower I "thought" I went aggressive on N again, my nutes were: Dyna Gro grow(1tsp)-bloom(1tsp)-protect(1tsp)-nitro boost(1/2 tsp) and 1/2 tsp of neem occasionally. Only my 3rd grow, I find myself doing research and then trial and error, but learn a lot when shit hits the fan though.

Here is a close up of the lack of trichs, again all other plants are great and I'm 6 weeks 2 days in flower. Ace of Spades is a 8-9 week strain I believe. The plant looks all green and beautiful to me however it's not Bud happy, if you look carefully, it's mostly just leaf and hairs. Don't the thick, shinny, little leaves in the bud look like too much nitro?IMG_2031.JPG
