For 6 weeks that doesnt look right... mine is 3 weeks under the bubblegum smells so good... and the sweet sativa barely smells but both have way more bud then your plants... is there any lights leaking into your room? What light are you using to flower?

hey, 1000 watt hps. i may have had some ambient light leaking in. i have solved that problem. do you think the buds will recover?

oh it will for sure, these plants are very durable... just keep flowering till they stink and got some nasty buds

I have 2 O.G. kush plants at 6 weeks flower that wreak like nobodys business but then I have a bigger bagseed lady 8 weeks in and still smells like nothing. Im guessing its genetics.

My first grow with bagseed was the same way... no smell till the chop.

interesting. so would you say that light leaks just slow flowering time more than they stunt the total yield?





sce>>>> thats neat. how did it smell when you chopped it? was it good quality?

after chop it smelled pretty dank. Not like my o.g. kush plants do but still dank

I had an indoor/outdoor sensi star plant that gave me 2 ozs cured and barely smelled at all until drying........then it smelled sickly sweet but damn did it do the trick (vegged outdoors in daylight and indoors under light at night, then just left outdoors on the deck for flowering under oahu moon. I would say lack of smell doesn't mean lack of potency though.

Some weed has no smell at all during the growing wait till you cut it down,then it will smell the house out for days.differant weed smell differant.

oh ya i have a plant at the same stage as u bush it smells like grass but once dem lil buds cum then thats when i smell the plant everyday and talk to it lol

They look like a bit more light might help . but other than that they look great, Bubba cush is a single stock as i have some that are 7 weeks in flower and just want to harvest the and they are getting close........ and the smell is just starting or it is almost like other people say it smells as they smell it when in the house, but i dot, so it could be that yours smell but you are used to it!

When lights leak during "night" it can lead to hermies and slower growth....

that light leak can confuse your plant... doesnt know whether to produce veg hormones or flowering hormones... so you end up with a plant that looks like it doesnt know whether to grow or flower... which can easily lead to hermies... it doesnt take a lot of light either to fuck up a plants cycle... one foot candle (1 lumen) on one square foot of your plant is enough to confuse it... so if you have cleaned up the light leak good... thats step one... step 2 is waiting another 5 weeks to see what happens.. you might get a hermie you might not... might end up with some fire ass buds, but you might not.... just be patient... keep up what your doing.. and good luck

cool. i have them completely dark now. good thing these are the practice plants though. im wondering if such a small amount of light can fuck with them then what happens in nature during a full moon?

the light from the moon is a reflection... it is not enough light at all to do anything to plants...

street lights dont affect plants because it doesnt put enough light to the ground from the height they are at... a 1000w hps street light that is 25ft off the ground (guessimating the height on the one outside my house) only puts 240 lumens to the ground... and thats assuming the bulbs they use in them put off that many lumens... and thats only the lumens directly underneath the light... a few feet away from the bottom of the light and the lumens drop drastically...

okay i will be updating my grow journal in a few days if your interested.

If the plants in those photos are "6 weeks into flowering", then you have done something terribly wrong, or it could be poor quality seeds.
After only 1 week of flowering, your buds should be at least the size of marbles, not match heads. I hope you were able to harvest at least
a couple of joints, but it sure doesn't look that way... 6 weeks?!?! Horrible.

Peace

I'm 4 weeks in and mine are as fat as my arm already

For 6 weeks into flower they seem very small, almost as if it were within the first 2 weeks. I have to use a carbon filter for smell so mine are fairly well odor controlled.
