Buff up your buds, flowering stage.

This post is completely dedicated towards sharing advanced techniques of the flowering stage, and how we can end up with as much bang for our bud as possible. This is my first year growing, and my first harvest is due within a month (feels like ny wife is delivering a child) So far I've added organic Fertz (N, 4.5% - P205, 3% - K20, 3% - PH of 6. during the vegetative stage. Grow in 7 gallon paint buckets. And now that I'm getting close to harvest I'm adding carob molasses (1tbps/gallon) periodically.

Are there any experts out there that can share some tips and trade secrets to me and the rest of the rollitup community?

Look into Myco madness, or myco products in general.

I'm in the same boat as you in my buds flowering stage. GL

I don't have access to any fancy Fertz where i am, (holy lands, mountanious)my buds have been flowering for months so far and I don't feel like the buds are as massive as they should be. What is the ingredient inside myco madness that makes the buds go crazy?

If you have a legitimate address, you should be able to order some good stuff off the internet. I've been experimenting with some new bloom ferts, and have found Primal Harvest Solution Guano to work wonders. Buds have really been fattening up with this stuff.

Use a finisher. Fox farm chaching- AN Overdrive-AN Hammerhead- Atami Bloombastic- H&G Shooting powder. All of these do what your looking for. Big swelling and fantastic oil/trichome production. It's not for the kombucha drinking "organic only" type farmer but if your into getting great results these are widely regarded as the stuff to use. Carb loading with molasses is a fairy tale.

Mycro Madness, is fungal, which plays symbiotic relationship with roots. This allows the roots to uptake a significant amount more nutrients then it would do normally.

Overall increasing buds in all aspects.

The bigger the roots the bigger the fruits. Mycorrizae helps to achieve just that and there are numerous myco products from various companies.

Molasses is used to feed the microorganisms in your soil, it doesnt just make your buds fat or sweet.

The size of your buds could be a genetics thing but it also might not be ready for harvest yet. You'd be surprised what an extra 1 or two weeks can do for things.

I wish I could have a real adress, I really do.
That's one of the cons of having a perfect grow spot. I living up in the mountains of Lebanon so I have to make due with what I have.
All of you are suggesting great fertilizers but I just don't have access. I guess I'll keep using these organic techniques and carob molasses (which is working very well) and hope for the best!

Is it typical for the bud to swell (double in size) the last week or two before harvest? Also, im noticing a lot of my fan leaves lower down of my plant are turning yellow, is this a sign that harvest is near?

Probably too late for molasses. Those complex sugars are to feed the beneficials in your soil so that they can populate and breakdown the organic matter into more basic elements for your plants to absorb. Molasses does Not sweeten up your buds. That's just an old wives tale.
