So i still consider myself a rookie grower. First and foreskinz.
With that said i am very confused.
Research ive done says trichomes are supposed to turn amber. As this plant matures. Ive grown around 10 plants so far using ilgm seed bank. And have yet to have even one have anything other than clear and or cloudy. Triches. Is this normal. Or is their some step im missing. These are beautiful plants. So i inagine lighting is not an issue. And im using reputable nutrients line. (Dont want to plug companies. Not sure who we can and can not yet.) My plants. Have hermied. Before they would change from cloudy to amber… facts. I eve. Got the little white seeds. All theoughout plant. And the nannering of the buds. I have a trio pack supposed to be here anyday. And i would love. To get the baking trio pack right. Any help is apprectiated. 4x4x6 indoor grow.
Temps 68 at night. 79 to as high as 85 during day. On 12 off 12.
Let them grow longer. They will eventually turn amber
So hermie plants are ok.
I feel like i should see ambering trichomes. Before it hermies. Is this not the case? Not wanting a ton of littlw white seeds. In bud.
No
You should be. Herming is not natural and is the result of stressful growing conditions. Most commonly caused by light and heat.
Hmmmm. Ok. Noted. So maybe i should remove. Of of the two lights. I have in this room. As a beginner i went with cheaper lights. So figured i better get. 2. Maybe thats to much. But. Its only pushing 120 w though 100 led so doesn’t seem like anywhere near enough light. But they are led. So maybe thats part of my issue Ill try it out with just the one and see what happens. Thanks guy. Appreciate your input.
I wouldnt pull the light out. Tell me some more about your grow. Ill link you to a support ticket, fill in the blanks a pic or two will help. Lets talk it out, if your down.
Copy and paste this ticket and fill in the blanks. We will go from there.
Your in the right place, we will get you squared away.
How many plant’s do you have in your tent because it takes about 150 watts per plant to push buds to mature 120 watt will do one plant buds will just be airy not dense which is fine to somke
Ill do it thank you.
I just harvested 3 more. Because of the (what one called. “Nannering” and hermies i attempted my first clone and to my surprise. Sucsess. With just ph’d water and an airstone. That is the only plant in my 4x4x6. Nugs. Are very dense. Beautiful really just wont amber before going to long. Here are a couple pictures of situation. Then im going to fill out that form guy recommended. Thanks again for help.
Looks like you might be giving plant a little too much nutes
It could be too much light but not too many watts. What is the on/off schedule? Too many on hours or too close to the lights can stress and cause nanners.
600 ml phd water a every couple days. Maybe that happy frog soil. Thats only soil used. And 3 part hydroponic nutes. Already. Not as strong as soil. And I still cut it back to half strength. Mmmmm any known issues with ffhf soil?
Was 12 12. I just started dialing day light hours back 15 min a day. And should be at 11/13 by tomorrow.
Same light grew these 3 at one time these are the recently harvested
These are amber trichomes, pulled from another topic posted on 7/5/22
Maybe there is some confusion between what you’re looking for and information provided, i would like to help you get to bottom of this. Outside of getting some nanners, how has your dried harvest been? Did it smoke decent and get you high?
I remember writting that post a while back. Lol. Still chasing. I do not see the amber in the pics i took. As far as the smoke itself. No complaints. After curing a bit. Flavor came around. And oh yeah. Strong buzz. The woman loves it. Calls me father nature now lol. Im suffer from bone disease and trying to grow what i need for the pain refuse to go back to pain pills. My reaearch ive done. Says that the amber triches is where ill find the pain relieving properties. Here are a couple shots. Of the triches from my clone i have in tent now
Planted on may 22nd
Would you look at that. Making a liar out of me
Wonder if it was the reduction in lights. Or lessining the amout out time it gets the light.
Big ole fat amber triche. She must have heard me lol
This is not the full story. Amber trichs have started degrading and “can” convert to cbn. The cbn effects are known to help induce sleep and relieve pain. But you definitely don’t need to have high cbn numbers to feel sleepy or pain relieve from all cannabis. Sometimes the genetic make-up and terpene profile can provide this with very little to no cbn.
Check in the description of the strains. Many times the “expected” effects are listed along with flavor profile and THC content.
Thanks for educating me. Ill check out the effects. My new strains ahould be here anyday.
Wedding cake
Cherry pie
And girl scout cookies.
Maybe try these with a little light. Growing one of each. So based off what ive read ill need in ball park of 500w. Of light for all of them?
The number of individual plants is not what matters. The size of the canopy they create is what to base your needed wattage on.
I am running what is near the minimum for my grow area. I have 2x 150w lights to cover a 2+1/2x4 foot (approx) space. Right now I have 3 plants under them.
Those 3 gal pots. And if so whats your avg. Height. Leas than 3 foot?
