to me these dont quite look right, the buds are decent size but are just too far apart. im worried its the result of the plant being rootbound during flower, ive moved it into the ground but i think it may be too late. there is minimal new bud growth and i think now is the time to harvest,i dont want it to ripen for too long. should i cut now or see if the plant will grow new roots and perhaps spring back to life in the final weeks?

can you get a better pix, maybe a bit further back from the buds, and also some of the whole plant?? it would help a ton as it's kind of hard to judge much of anything from that one pix imo..

Yea need better pics forsure. How long have you been budding for? If it was me I`d buy an inexpensive magnifying glass or mini hand held microscope. Once those Trichs turn colour I`d be clipping. Would like to see rest of plant. Perhaps LST would be an option as buds look real immature.

i moved her inside for the dark period, but left a household bulb on most of the time in the room it was in thinking it wouldnt have an effect. she went into flower but had very little bud growth.. in terms of numbers, at the moment the buds that are there are fat and snow like. currently the plant is in the ground, on a 12/12 schedule and is growing well. every new growth tip has 1 or 2 new buds and new hairs. gonna continue and see what happens. also, the buds that are ripe seem to be growing fresh hairs insde of them, none have come out yet but im hoping those continue to grow as well.

i got lazy and didnt take the plant outside until 10 or 11 am a couple times. it was also very rootbound mid flower, and almost stopped growth with a couple weeks to go. im still not convinced that it was light leaks but lack of sun and space to grow

was the flowering area TOTALLY PITCH DARK for 12 hours?? when i was new, i had some looked just like this! now, the only other lights in my grow room, overheadl, are green lights! so, if i ever need to go in, i can do my work, and the plants see nothing. but they need TOTAL darkness for 12 hours. no light leaks. does this ring a bell? yours, like mine, looks like its bouncing back and forth from flower to veg. thats looking like regrow. what kind of lights? i hope i was of some help
