Increasing trichomes and growth

[Vaporeyes]

sitting at 35% now and could prob hit 20 if need be...

having more blue light or veg light durring bloom helps. i went from a standard high output hps bulb to the eye horti super hps and can tell that that 30% more light in the blue area makes a huge difference.

First 3 ro 4 weeks are pre-flowers and pistal balls, then it starts suddenly happening!

so what is the longest it will take for the harvest to be ready

 

[harryo]

depends on the strain once the flowers start turning from white to amber at least 2 thirds then your ready or very close your plants will also tell you once you know what to look for there are all kinds of strains out there that are mould resistant and dont forget hydrogen peroxide 35%food grade is also a natural mould inhibitor peace bro

so what is the longest it will take for the harvest to be ready

almost all indica strains take 9 weks from starting 12/12 til harvest.

I said almost all, it can be 8 to ten weeks.

And sativa is usually longer much longer. Right Roseman?

soo since were talking about yield and growth, how do you guys trim your plants in the flower stage?? do you tend to let them do what they want and remove the dead leaves as they grow, or do you keep trimming them the same way in veg?? ie keep fimming,topping, etc??

Amen, bro, taht is why very few growers grow Sativa inside. It can take 14, 15, even 16 weeks to flower, not counting the VEG cycle.

Most growers do NOT trim, Top or Fim in Flowering, only in early VEG.

I only remove DEAD leaves in Flowering.

Will deff make sure my plants i plan on growing are indica dominant. what wuld be the ratio that an indoor grower should seek as far as indica to sativa? Temps should be no higher then 85, and im aiming for that in the room I plan on using, in tent i would like 75 possibly lower.Any ideas on how to keep RH low in a tent?. I have a super eye horti as well and nice comment bout the kandy kush. Hope it is not more expensive than the BB.

Nice!!


I am in for the wait of my life!! I am growing my first Sativa dominant strain! Good thing I have a stockpile of full mason jars!
