Plant not producing trichomes, but all parameters ok

[wdverdes]

Hi all, I'm in the 3/4 week of flowering, buds are stating to appear fatter but 0 TRICHOMES!!

Plants got 6/7 week of veg, topped and fimmed.

4 plants in a 80x80cm SOG.

For lights I have 10x50w cob full spectrum and 3x1w white, mounted in a board with termal protection to avoid burning the plants. 15cm of distance from the canopy.

I use a 3x1 analog light/ph/moist meter and the lights appeal to be right, half the potency of the sun here.

For fert, I'm using flowermind (organic) and some sintetic fertilizer npk macro+micro to complement, no signals of overfert that I see.

But no trichomes!!!

Should I wait more?

You are on the right track.....

Even without a closer picture, there are an abundance of trichomes staring at us....

Looking good....

Keep us posted....

Those look like the blurple lights, full spectrum is not that color

it could be the strain itself i got a strain named sour 71 its trichome production was crap i got another one named sweet rebel and it was frosty asf

All this was when i was starting out growing and i didnt do a really good job but it still frosted and the other did not

You are fine for week 4, I wouldn't really stress it. I've had plants frost up last couple weeks and some frost up early plants are like people, they are all different

I have some lemon haze and Colombian Gold but next week I'll flip some bluedreams into flowering to see the difference

It mostly comes down to genetics everything depends on the breeder

I also heard many stories of people buying the same strain from 2 different breeders and they turned out to be completely different

But it will come dont worry just keep doing what youre doing and keep her happy

Be patient, a farmer needs patience.

I was more worried of slow killing the plant or something like that... If the plants are happy and OK I'm too

Thanks man! It will be my first harvest and I'm anxious...
Here I have 2 lemon haze from seeds that behave totally different, even the clones are somewhat different, I guess that's how nature works!!

 

[wdverdes]

Some bottom leaves in one plant are yellowing and falling, I gave it a little boost in foliar NPK spray 10 10 10 (I don't think it's a potassium problem so I used the veg fert)
Am I right?

Hey wd......I mean no disrespect, but are you at 4 weeks flower or 4 weeks from flip....

Big difference.....

But I stand by my above post.....along with all the others.......
