She was grow in a dwc setup and will start to fatten up and put on weight in the 5-8 weeks and I harvested the tops at 9 weeks

These buds are so rock hard already! Cant wait for this to finish. Seems to be going fast. Lower leaves are starting to yellow, does that mean it is defoliating itself? Buds are super crystaly and big for 24 days. My last plant had smaller buds at 6 weeks than this does at 3.

Yeah that does seem to have some pretty nice bud development going on there. The leaves are a little yellow which is normally a sign that the pH is too high.

I stopped checking PH because the AN Sensi line says its PH perfect (Switching from Earth Juice that I had to adjust PH every watering)
The Sensi Grow worked great in Veg, PH was perfect. It seemed to have creeped up in Flower with Sensi Bloom, leaves started turning yellow before I caught it. PH is fine now, but I think it is too late. It was my 1st flower cycle with Sensi Bloom (This and Critical Kush) and they both did the same thing. Ill keep a better eye on PH with the BUKU and Silver CHeese I have going to flower next.

So far, the buds still look great, do you think it will affect my progress the rest of the way through?

Big Buddha Blue Cheese 30 Days of flower

Dinafem Critical Kush 30 Days of flower

I harvested Blue Cheese a bit early. Only 33 grams dry. Trichs were mostly cloudy. I would have waited longer, but it looked like it was dying. Next time Ill do better.

The first time I grew Blue Cheese, I harvested around Day 60 which was a little too soon. I took 2 clones from that plant and flowered them both for 70 days with much better results than I got from the mother.

How long did you veg her up? I've found that longer veg periods produce bigger plants with better yields. I pulled 98 grams off of the last Blue Cheese vegging it for 8 weeks under T-5 and some CFLs and flowering under a 400 w HPS. I veg in a 2 gal bucket and flower in a 3.5 gal bucket. I ran House and Garden nutes for that run and probably have enough of that left to last me a week lol.

I was trying to see if I had any pics from that run, but I think I wiped them from my pc in a fit of paranoia.

I only veg'd a little over a month. I have more Blue Cheese seeds on the way. Gonna veg 70 and Flower 70. If I can get close to 100g, that would be sweet. Ill be in a 5g bubbler. Everything i did on this plant was impatient. Thanks for the info. Atleast I know the strain is capable of a good yield. The smoke is great, I just gotta be more patient growing it.

You will save yourself a lot of frustration at the end if you can veg and flower in 2 separate spaces. It allows you to constantly have something flowering and you can give your plants in veg plenty of time. I've found that this works for me, as I don't run out of smoke between harvests and it tempers my tendency to get impatient. Of course you have to be mindful of vertical space issues.

I was able to find one of my last BBBC run. This is at like Day 42 of flowering.

that looks great. Much greener than mine. I think I had a couple issues in the last grow with not enough N in flower, plus i think Mag and Cal def.

I will be happy to have buds that big and the plant still looks so green and healthy. Thanks man

The smoke by the way is great! Im loving it so far.
