Confused first time grower

[MickyB]

Please help. When do i harvest this white widow. Not growing buds like normal, or is this normal. Plants are grown in green house in sunny, very hot south africa. Tnx

You've got a ways to go still. Those buds will fatten up and all the hairs start curling in and turning brown. Plus your trichomes will start to amber. when 5 out of every 20 or 25 triches are amber its ready.

I wouldn't plan on harvest anytime soon u cant even call thos buds yet just let it keep going. Is this your only plant or is there more?

Evening mickyb, your doing a great job, just keep doing what you been doing, for another month or so.

Nice going plant looks gooood let it finish! Lol

Is this plant getting 12 hours of 'total and complete darkness' in every single dark cycle? Long days in South Africa right now could be working against you.

[MickyB]

Plant does not get total darkness for that amount of time, will try and rectify. Have 2 more white widow plants and few other strains, still small though . Tnx everybody for your input, feel much better. Can be quite overwhelming if you not sure what you doing is right.

agreed with flockshot they will only grow more lanky get them on a 12/12 light cycle and you will notice a huge difference

[Flockshot]

I suggest you use auto flowering plants, that do not require the 12 hours of darkness, and they will flourish in the South African sunshine.

Regular plants will keep trying to "re-veg" and get all messed up.

Tnx, saw some of the plants wants to do "monster cropping". So the learning begins!!!
