New Grow.....Questions On Both Plants

Ok. Here's the scenario...........
Don't wanna put the cart before the horse but I have no camera till wed (my blushing bride is outta town till then with it).

I have 2 plants under 400hps.

1st plant
LINK: Thai Stick (Thai x Skunk) Marijuana Seeds High Quality Low Prices

4 weeks into flower, the leaves under each bud are heavily coated with a darkdark brown resin with "some" white chrystals.
Need I be concerned?
I guess I mean, what's with the darkdark brown resinous shit, or should i be extremely happy?

2nd plant
LINK: Lavendar Cannabis Seeds by Soma Seeds

4 weeks into flower, the buds, although very very "a plenty", are nowhere near where the above plant is. It's a "purple" variety.
Is it a late bloomer?

The soil i'm using is a 50-50 mixture of FFOF and DR. Earth mixed with a heavy dose (25+%) of organic perlite.

ps: I really like this DR. Earth shit. Next grow..... aft this harvest i'll go 100% Dr. Earth.

I used FF nutes (GB and BB) thru-out and every other watering use either Neptunes Harvest Fish Fert or Neptunes Harvest Fish Seaweed Blend.

Note: I've been known to foliar feed (on and under the leaves) with bat guano once per week.

I also top my soil (1/2 cup) with earthworm castings once per week to sorta "wash in" with each watering.

Any thoughts on the brownbrown powdery "stuff" on the 1st plant or the seemingly slow maturation of the 2nd?

Pics to come late wed or thurs.

Thanks in advance of the pics.
