Sour Diesel 4 weeks flowering need your help and opinions

Hey guys I have a dilema that Is bothering me. I've been growing these ho's for a lil bit 2 months or so. When they were younger few weeks before flowering inwas sexing them and it was for like 2 weeks maybe under 12/12 but then I sexed em and had 24hrs for about 2-3 weeks. So Now these ladies have been flowering for about 4 weeks straight 12/12 no light leaks great temps 400w hps etc. One of them seemed to take off and is plumped up swelling I guess started early pistils starting to amber. Trichomes aleady cloudy maybe I saw very very few amber trichomes like more of the trichomes stem hope i'm giving you a nice visual so far Some leaves yellowed out so I was getting worried now I'm like my flowering time is all F'd up not sure what to do. I was looking to use some overdrive or big up powder(humboldt) but idk if I can if there's not gonna be enough time. Maybe my ph was very low I gave it a few reads with a ph stick (growing in soil) a ph test run off water it seemed super low like 5.0 or lower who knows with these colors. Stick read 7 but I think it's broken. So anway I gave it a good flush And even uses some final flush to make sure i get all the doody buildup out I'm just really kind of dissapoiNted because they def could get fatter and denser then they look. They don't seem heavy either. Am I just freaking out this isn't my first grow maybe like 5 or some Isht but I really never was satisfied with the end product taste etc so I wanna be sure the buds will burn taste well with white ash. Better to have decent size buds that taste great then to have big ginormous buds that taste and smoke horrible should I do? If you want pics I'll post up. Sorry if I was talking all over the place. I'm deseperate for info an I respect all your knowledge that I've read around here thanks so much. Oh and if u didn't know I'm growing some strain of sour diesel my favorite ever so smelly good. Supposly it a long almost 75 days 10 weeker about. So that's why I'm bugging out about it

Re: Sour Diesel 4 weeks flowering need your help and opinions

possibly some growth just comes in spurts..itll just sits and chills.. IMO the amber trichs really bring out the flavor of this bud

what day of flower is thatxactly.. how many leaves are yellowing off

Re: Sour Diesel 4 weeks flowering need your help and opinions

i grow indoor in dirt, i use good country well water, give nutes every other water(good old 20-20-20 when in veg.), when flowering i just use 15-30-15. i never do 24 hour light cycle, unless i run into trouble like you did. if i'm sexing and my plant goes to flower i put her on 24. i always do 18 hour for veg. then switch to 12/12. sometimes we over think things get back to basics....KISS.. Keep It Simple Stupid....that's how i've grown some of my best weed, indoor and out. The 15-30-15 is great.....good luk

Re: Sour Diesel 4 weeks flowering need your help and opinions

Perhaps this strain just has a different growth pattern than the others you have experience with. I mean, if one stain can flower in 5 weeks and another can take 9 or 10, then the cycles or stages could be just as drastically different. maybe. Perhaps. Just thinking out loud with ya.

Either way, those certainly aren't anything to be bummed about!!
