usually plants mature on the tops first closer to the lights . mine are maturing from the bottoms a lot faster then the tops . I have never seen this before . usually not how it goes . every thing is dialed in where I want it . temps under control . only thing new is location . but room is total dark lights out pitch dark . very big sexy looking. I thought its strange and its on 3 different kinds . this time my lights are spaced out a lot more then ever before I usually over kill the lights over head this set up I have a lot more room so I spread the lights out . possible why I never seen this . what are your opinions ? what I mean by mature is it has all the sex shinny sugar on the bottoms almost done . the tops need a bit more to be finished .

D J Short has a plant called Flo and it does that he says to take the ripe buds as they mature, what's the strain

I had kind of the same issue. My Nyc Sour Diesel matured faster than expected with this grow. 8 weeks instead of the 9-10 weeks as expected.

I recently had an Afghan Kush that did that,the 2 biggest colas that we're the closest to the light were the last to finish.My theory is since they were so big,it just took longer for them to ripen??

Sounds like you machine is doing wonders. Lol
I think your lighting spaced out is the cause
that machine my woman broke it gone shopping 1 to many times with it . yes the lighting and the size of the fruit . it has pretty strong side lighting . issue is how the heck do I flush ? lol bottoms will be very amber possible over done before the tops are done . tops are just starting . cut the branches throw them into the hydro cloner for a week on the lower braches to flush ? I have very heavy nutrient in the plants right to the max chemical .

I take it this is not a common issue lol . I took a closer look . hard to see with a thousand hps shining directly into your eyes . the bottoms look a week ahead of the tops . I will be ok . wont need to do some crazy shit putting them into hrdro .

Stop feeding a week before harvesting the bottom. Then you will have a good week flushing for the tops. They say its a myth good way to compare.

yeah. I feed them so heavy I could flush them for 2 weeks plain ph water I bet they still will look ok. I will start my flush a week early and I don't have to worry . don't want my woman to have to go else where ! lol block one of her pipes with black ash shell punch you in the face . these are cherry tomatoes that you can smoke .

sounds like your getting a lot of side lighting into them buds

yeah maybe pin point a few lamps on the top of your buds to ripen the tops faster

you could try feeding a bit more K or some triacontanol may speed up the top growth

on top of these plants I have 1000 watt hortilux in a raptor xxx hood with a solis tek ballast . right next to it I have the same . light I bet you is more bright then out side on the top of them . every body has a mystery in there room sooner or later . I have been using these nutrients for 3 years mixed in to my own personal favorite . 12 55 10 on these numbers . n is high . I hate to see any yellow . my thoughts any yellow then the plant is hungry and the plant will try to survive and not produce my veggies . the k could be raised up a lot more . next time I will play around with it on a few would be great if it speeded it up by a week or more .
