Had my plants growing since January 21,2014 abd it's hydroponics. This is my first attempt and I've followed all advice and book info. Supposedly I should be harvesting at the end of April but they don't look like they will be ready. What does it look like to you guys and should I continue?

They are small but you might as well continue until they are ready to harvest

Not worth the effort, rather pathetic to tell the truth

Thanks for that odd comment, Mad Hatter. Problem is, how do I know when they are ready?

lol, the dr. always gives pretty good advice. he will give you spot on info. and then throw in a seemingly contradictory comment. he pretty much covers both sides of the fence. that's a good thing. you're this far along, finish them. after your pistils change color, and turn back in, start checking your trichomes...

• Botrytis cinerea

• Botrytis cinerea is a necrotrophic fungus that affects many plant species, although its most notable hosts may be wine grapes. In viticulture, it is commonly known as botrytis bunch rot; in horticulture, it is usually called grey mould or gray mold. Wikipedia

• Scientific name: Botryotinia cin

In answer to the question, I was told to cut the fan leaves. I'm guessing that's wrong. This is grown hydroponic so I don't know what could have caused this "Botrytis" and not sure what I can do.

The person who made the box included the nutes. My res temp was at room temperature. But I'm ok with all this. It's our first time doing it and we expected some flaws. Going to be more precise the next time around.

If your going to cut the fan leaves like that, you need to spray them at least twice daily. Had the same thing happen with a few of mine where I tried defoliation. Much larger plants, but still.

Spray with what,nutes or plain water?

Plain water. Spraying with nutes will cause nute burn. Also, I should mention that you want to spray when the lights are off. Depending on the lighting system you are using, those little water droplets can act like magnifying glasses and burn the leaves.

It's not too late to start spraying now either. If there is enough time you will see new leaves coming in.

They are auto,so light isn't a huge factor. I do turn it on/off on a schedule but it's not a big deal. I heard about nute burn. Ty for the info

depending on your ambient room temp. it could very easily be too high. you def. want it to be below 70. i've never heard of having to spray your plants because of trimming. i trim through early flower, and aside from a couple doses of, "spray "n" grow", i don't do much foliars. it is a good way to quickly get needed nutes on occasion though.
