6 weeks flowering - any advice?

[polski]

Hi All,

Just past the 6 weeks flowering stage and things are looking and smelling really good, the buds are nice and sticky and have a sweet fruity smell
The plants haven't been fed since last week (mineral water only) do I have enough time to give them one last feed or should I just keep them on the mineral water?
I'm also concerned about mould - would it have shown by this stage if it was going to occur or is it something I should be keeping an eye out for in the next couple of weeks?
Pictures attached - any comments or advice would be much appreciated.

Cheers for now......

Hi Polski!
Nice lookin budz
Wot strain is it? u growin with floros?
From just looking at it anyway, its definitely sativa dominant!
Sativas take more than 6-8 weeks to mature from wot i know,
more like 10-14 weeks or something (Correct me if im wrong mod's)
I would feed it for another 2/3 weeks or so and then use just water for another week or so.I could be completely wrong as well since im a beginner!
In the pics the hairs look milky white all over and the buds look pre-mature from wot i can see anyway.Id give it another 4 weeks till the chop/ keep a close eye on the crystals with a magnifying glass and judge it from that!
Its the most precise way from wot i know!
Hope that helps!

That's quite interesting..I was just planning on asking the same question.. Though I think my plants are about 2 weeks behind yours

I might have to harvest reasonably soon though as they're outgrowing the grow space I have.. Kind of scary that they've already doubled in size since I hit them with the flowering light cycle.. hopfully they'll stop stretching soon...

Thanks for the info Critter, I might try adding a fan for the last couple of weeks - will this reduce temp? I have no heat source except the bulb (125w Ecolite - a flouro! ) but there is very little humidity in the growroom.
The plants are SKUNK#1 x HAWAIIAN, I've checked the suppliers website (Nirvana seeds) which recommends 8-10 weeks flowering, however another website recommends 10-12 weeks flowering for the same strain. Looks like they'll be going for another couple of weeks - will post more pics next week. Flowering stage from week 2 - 5 can be seen on my previous thread - 'flowering using 125w flouro - results'

Take care all, cheers for now......

Apologies! I've checked Nirvana seeds website again - they say 7-8 weeks flowering, Dutch Passion seeds say 9-12 weeks flowering. I'll just keep an eye on them !!
