Flower day 25 first grow

PeteW92 · Apr 22, 2016

Hi rollitup!

I've previously made threads asking for your advice and you've all been very helpful. I'm day 25 into my first grow's flower period - strain critical, under platinum p450 led tile. These plants weren't topped but will defo top in future grows.

I expected these buds to be larger by now or does this look about right?

Thank you in advance!

Looking good man.

Yes those do look about right for the time span they've been in flower.

Definitely top next time though. As a stealth grower I see no point in not doing so.

Thanks mate.

It's my first grow and I was scared of doing it wrong and damaging them. Now I know topping them is a no brainier!

This plant: Broke the main stem just above the soil at two weeks. I've accidentally ripped off three branches, split the main stem while super cropping a second time, and even lost the whole fimmed top due to an over-zealous attempt at super cropping.

Topping your plant barely hurts it at all. My plants never even had a recovery period they just kept growing.

I guess what I'm trying to say is as long as you don't mess up too much these plants can really take a beating while they are vegetating.

Haha, that plants been through a lot!
I know now how resilient the plants are. I was so delicate in the beginning but I've learnt a lot already! They can withstand a fair amount of abuse!

Yea man they really can. But you're not alone. Here is my first ever full term baby..her name was Felicity and she gave us a great head high. Was so afraid to do anything to her besides some light pruning.

I believe in you man, we can grow the plant.

Was not trying to show off or jack your thread or anything btw, I thought maybe they'd be inspiring pictures to see, seeing as we're both still newbies.

Here is an update on the grow, anyone know how much longer it's got? Strain is critical.
Cheers!

If Ya got a jewelers loop or some kind of magnifier check trichomes look for 5-10 % Amber rest should be milky

Yea no worries, will do when I'm back home, tent is 1.2 X 1.2, only 5 plants in there, they're under a platinum p450 led tile and in a good quality soil (can't remember brand) and that's potted into air pots which gives the roots lots of oxygenation.
