I think
I have a CK 55 days into flowering right now and every pistil on the buds is still white. Anyone else have this issue? I thought CK was a 55-60 day strain?
I think every single person I've ever spoke to about CK has said it flowers for at least 63+ days. I'm barely about to flip mine to 12/12 and I'm expecting to go over 60 days

One thing everyone has to remember flowering doesn't technically start till about a week in... So if you count from 12/12 which everyone does you sometimes have to add a week

Really? I wonder why Barneys lists it as a 55-60 day strain then?

Yep, this is why I always begin the countdown about a week after flowering when the flowers begin to actually show.

That's what I was thinking. Seems to have far more sativa like traits!

i chopped mine at i think 64...dude grab a cheap microscope and check the trichs every day to see when they turn amber....ed rosenthal said some of the plant will be ready b4 the lower branches, depending on light i believe?... cloudy trichs with swollen tops mean time to cut...if u see amber cut that day!!

Exactly... Oh I also run co2... It's like you have to grow it better so it keeps getting you stoned... Then when you're smoking gottis... It's time to change...

Its cuz we're all smoking indicas lol

We can't go in there all straight-eyed...he'll know something's up.
I think that's it. I always try to get solid indicas if available. Never Been a big fan of sativas. Don't get me wrong I love a good OG. But I'll take a heavy indica like bubba or master any day

I'm growing in 2 gallon round pots in ffof soil. Using advanced nutrients sensi grow along with f1and b52 for veg and sensi bloom with bud candy and overdrive for flowering. The ph perfect line. Got 10 critical kush and 4 girl scout cookies clones. Got em under 2 600 watt cool tubes and air conditioner and 2 exhaust fans. 1 for the lights and one for the carbon filter. Along with one more fan for intake and 2 oscillating fans. The intake and exhaust fans are 250 cfm inline fans. It's all in a 4x8x7 box I built
