hey guys so im busy with my first grow.4 bag seed plants
i vegged them indoors under 300watts cfl before moving out side to flower as they grew to big for my grow box.

its winter here in south africa .
the plants are getting a good 10hours direct sunlight
mid day temps outdoors here in winter is 21 degrees Celsius (69,8 Fahrenheit)
and night times i move them indoors into a room of 18 degrees Celsius (64.4 Fahrenheit)

i was using a 4-8-14 nutrients for around 7 weeks
for the last week iv just been using crude black strap molasses
iv noticed the big fan leaves turning yellow and brown but i believe its nearing the end of flower.

the problem is im already 8 weeks in and the buds seem leafy and not as tight as id like .
am i near the end?how much longer do you guys think?

Yep looks like an older sativa and some of them can go a lot (14 weeks?) longer. Just make sure she keeps getting her 12 or longer total darkness as your days get longer and watch your trikes.

Take a picture with out the flash, get a pic of the plant, then up close to the tops like earlier.

However, it could just need more time, be patient if you are worried about reveg. But you should be fine. Also, keep in mind out door flowering could take longer due to the shift in light cycle.

Did you mix 1Tbsp to 1/2-1 gallon of water? Like you are supposed to?

Just be patient with them, they seem like they will pick up, it could just be a few more weeks. I've seen it take 12-14 weeks for outdoor light/indoor dark plants. A fellow grower I know did the same thing for is grows, his plants that should have taken 6 weeks took 12 weeks, and the ones that should be 8 weeks took 14 weeks or longer. I'm not a seasoned grower by any means, but I am an observationalist. My thoughts about your plant, if it's not a sativa, then it could be that back and forth transportation in and out could cause the plant some stress that might slow the flowering process. Of course I'm not an experienced grower yet. Hope some one else has a thought to add.

This is fair. If you ever run just one fem'd professional bean for your first time, you'll probably find more confidence in your anility with what the end result of bagseed will be. You'll take more pride in what you're doing, know what you're growing, and you'll have better faith in yourself. Good, healthy genetics are everything.
