No trichomes on leaves

[Hebrewdiver]

I'm growing my first GSC, girl scout cookie, and aGrowing under a 200w Bloom very close to harvesting I think. The buds are nice and big and good color. But I don't see very many if any sugar leaves or trichone on the buds themselves. Is this natural or have I done something wrong? 'm using a 200w Bloomspect that draws 394 from the wall in a 3x3x80" tent. I just don't understand why no trichones

 

[Remystemple]

did you mean 2000w? because a 200w led wouldn't pull 400w from the wall. a 2000w could.

 

[Remystemple]

yeah you did mean the 2000w. how high above the plants do you have it hanging?

I make sure my soil has a nice bit of Chitin in it, I have 1000s of Rove Beetles that slowly add Chitin to the soil.
I also add Chitin in the form of Optiveg when I plant a germinated seed.
My soil is loaded with rice hulls that breaks down into silicon plus I add a pinch of pure silica when I water most times.
And last couple weeks before harvest I lower humidity to 30-35% which also triggers more trichome production.
And I try to keep my temps between 75-80.
All these help trichome production.

My Hiydrow is a GSC cross and is close to harvest, its literally dripping in oil right now.

Wow that’s how I wish mine was looking

18 to 24”

You'll get it next grow, just get all your conditions just right and they'll be dripping in oil.

Yes a 2000w sorry for the typo

Does trichones are lack of affect the quality

Sadly yes no trichs no thc production.

Better luck next time.And it might just be that plants genetics were not up to par not every seed is equal.

Not good....I'm attaching a pic...maybe yall can see something I don't.

Don't give up on them yet, they're starting to look a little frosty Hebrewdriver, how long have they been in flower? GSC typically takes about 7 - 9 weeks to mature and that's under perfect conditions. I grew an AF Jack Herer a couple of years ago that wasn't ready to harvest until after almost 11 weeks in flower. Here's how it turned out

Thanks for the encouragement...about 8 wks now....I'm gonna stick with her until about all the hairs turn amber and draw in.

She has a ways to go still (couple weeks my guess w/o being able to see close up on the trichs), try moving the light down closer a bit (a little bit at a time so you can tell if it's too close if she reacts to it), varies on the LED 12-15" range is where I end up once they quit stretching. I mean there is sugar leaves and trichs, not like there is nothing at all there which is what you made it sound like.
