help 3 weeks in flowering but buds seem tiny

[audi07]

Nice one.

Will it be ok to snip some of the dry bits off?
Or will it damage the plant?

 

[mygirls]

i would wait tell they are completely dead.most of the time they will come back pending how bad of shape the were in.

The plant is also already stressed out by it. I wouldn't cut it off, but then, I haven't seen pictures of how badly it's crisped.

 

[audi07]

my camera is so crap ill try and borrow a better one get some better pics before the chop but heres some more dont know if you can tell how big they are and weather they look like they have two weeks or go a bit longer

it was the haze plant that got heat stressed

the big bangs shade leaves have slightly gone yellow but i think this maybe normal as its over a period

where as the strawberry haze was in one day obviously overheadted and fried the leaves

unfortunateley the pics wont show much wrong as i did trim the dryish buds off and all the dry brownish leaves off so it probably looks ok now

but strangley enough i dont think it stressed the plant as it seems ever scince
it seems to have fattened up more ? weird but maybe worth testing this guys snip some off top colas last two weeks may increase yeild worth a go a

yeh seems fine tbh and was obviously heat stress... they should recover fine and go to end as normal from what i can see.

oh and just to pick up on what you said re stress and size... a certain amount of stress can be beneficial for the plant... that is true ..although i wouldn't recommend doing what u did again

i didnt mean to sound like a dick i was just reading your thread and it was just one problem after another. it happened to me my first and second grow because i didnt have this forum of great growers to help me. and what i meant was that new growers could learn alot my your mistakes. i was just feeling frustraited for you when i posted no harm was meant and from the recient pics it looks like your grow i back on track and doing beautifuly.

good luck. but yeah sometimes i do like to make fun of people but not in this case.

 

[audi07]

lol mate i take it you have some grows under your belt can i just ask you
i understand proper dryncure will cause 75% loss on weight but dose this mean the amount of bud i see on my plant now like the size of the nugs with the loss of weight this means a loss on the size of the nugs right??

as i want the best dry n cure i was thinking the slow dry so if i chop my plant just at the tip of the soil trim it as best as posible the whole plant and just hang the whole plant up for the first 3 days then chop it to bits and hang individuall for another 5 or so days then paper bag for 3-5 days the mason jar em for at least two week what you think should be sweet nugs ??

my strawberry haze plant stinks in everyway light on lights off it over powers the big bang it seems to me the big bang has developed more buds flufy but the smell seems very little if any will this sort its self out with dry n cure as they rare both in the same enviroments ?

am going to feed em mollasses for the next 10-14 days then chop hopefully if the trichs are good

friends (. . )

truthfully do my nugs sound big enough

big bang fimmed two big colas are the size of coke cans and a half width and two in height and the lower nugs are the size of a computers mouse about 15 of them
strawberry haze fimmed 5 top colas but also the bottom branches shot up so its a bush of average size colas about just under 3 quaters of a coke can each iwill get better pics as i am telling the truth

From your description they sound fantastic. They will shrink during the drying process.

Basically when you cut them off they will feel reall wet and not very dense. When they dry out, they will get more dense as welll as throughout the cure.

Your curing method sounds just fine, I just don't hang my whole plants, just seems like a lot of effort for nothing. I just need the buds.

 

[audi07]

right im going to chop the tops off my big bang they look done and give the lower sites an extra week with the strawberry haze an extra week

my problem is i have a clothes wardrobe free bujt no spare fans its in an unused room and its real cool no radiator in there so i was wondering would it be ok for me to hang dry in the wardrobe without a fan blowing around and keeping the windows shut so its kinda room temp??

or would i be better off chucking the tops in a brown paper bag what about a mc donalds brown bag is that ok just for a week till the others are done then put em in the wardrobe with the rest if they arent dry enough to cure

getting worried abouyt mold with the tops as they are huge dont want to lose any bits of the plants any suggestions

 

[mygirls]

aslong as you have a fan blowing on the drying buds you will be o k

 

[audi07]

Yeah but there is no heat in the room, would it really need a fan i thought a wardrobe would have low humidity so i thought i would have to be putting a bucket of hot water in there to keep humidity higher in order to slow dry?

 

[mygirls]

with no heat and a fan that well be a slow dry. the fan well keepit from molng on you. you have to keepthe air moveing.

Does the fan need to be on constantly or can i put it on a timer and switch in on for a few hours then off for a few etc. ???

 

[mygirls]

that would be better then nothing. see with the moisture of the bud and the cold dark area spells mold.

No more answers until you post up some pics! We are all living vicariously through you wishing we were harvesting right now.

 

[juicyjayz]

again you should train a plant during veg and not cut a thing during flower

thats just whats best for the plant

use your light correctly and those leaves wont be in the way

it your not gonna train a plant corectly think about vertical hid lighting

with horizontal lighting you need an even canopy to properly use all the light

do you reccomnd a sog grow then?how much would a single cola in a sog under a 400 hps yield...around 10-15 grams?im gonn have them in a 10 gallon dwc,under a 400 hps..with a.n nutrientsa..

I'm not even sure how much longer I have to go. These strains are unknown and I've just finished 5 weeks of flowering. They look really immature still so I'm guessing 3-5 more weeks, probably closer to 5. They usually look more mature by now, but one of the strains is pretty sativa dominant.
