you got it, lots of hairs first and then the buds start to form, you will love it!!!

got any pics?

not right now .. gotta wait like an hour to get pics .. how long does it take before i start seeing buds

the buds start now mate, you have just got past the hardest part

at the nodes in the next couple weeks, you will start seeing chunks growing out where the hairs are. it's awesome and exciting and gets better and better all the way to the end.

I'd like to see those pics as well. I have 2 white widows and 1 himalayan gold at 4 weeks flowering and have the same question. I believe I was getting the EC off just a bit and my pH likes to jump because of my small reservoir. I could be paranoid though because this is my first time (what I consider my real first time). I'll consider taking pics.. its hard because their in a small space and my aeroponics unit has decided to grow a 3 plant jungle. Believe it or not, plant density is an issue.

it looks like you are over watering her that could be why the leafs are drooping..... are you feeding her food or just water.. cuz with nutes or ferts buds will be bigger

yea i am feeding her but with miracle grow .. only thing i could find

Don't use miracle grow, that shit's nasty :/

well there is no plant specialty shops where i live , the closest thing we got is a canadian tire and walmart, anyone know of anything better from either of these stores . is there any reputable website that i can order from and that will ship 2 canada ?

Here we go another MG hater. If you use the MG the correct way you will be fine. Or hey you could go pay 100 bucks for a liter or AN nutes that has a really nice shiny label but does the same thing.... Its up to you.

I've been using MG for close to 15 years with no problems and have tried a bunch of other fertz and they all do the same thing. Use it correctly and flush at the end and there will be NO problems.

I would say more than 3/4 of the people that say MG BLOWS DO NOT USE IT, YOU WILL DIE IF YOU SMOKE WEED GROWN WITH MG is all from people that have NEVER used it or used it incorrectly, this is just what I have seen.

Its all about how you use your nutrients! MG can grow plants just fine, you just have to read your plants and get to know them. Hey "66548" your plants definitely have a nutrient issue. If your problem was overwatering the leaves would be drooping overall... yours are clearly curling in on themselves which can be caused by a number of factors (heat and nuts namely). Though I am a newbie I would start looking at deficiency/overfertilizing pics.

I believe I caught my problem just in time. According to the back of the GH nutrient bottle, plants will not need as many nutrients if they are in a high lumen area. I definitely have a high lumen area!!! My ladies are always trying to get closer to the light.. I have lost a few little branches to heat, but the main kolas remain tied down and protected. My solution of course was to lower the nutrient concentration... My EC in is now 1.5 of a week 5 flowering mix. The result was immediate. They started filling in and getting dense the next day. Its only day 31 so I'm starting to get very anxious and excited!

Are you spraying your leaves alot??? or spraying them with nutes???

i dont sray the leaves any more ,lost the spray bottle , thanks for the info Mad Sci

how often do you water?.. how many days in between waterings and do you let your soil dry before next watering ?

That is one of the worst thing you can do is spray your plant with anything when its budding. It creates a huge risk of having mold take over your plant. When you flower you do not want your humidity that high for this exact reason it should be somewhere around 30%
