    Default white hairs with no buds at 10 weeks old

    hi guys and girls. so im coming to the end of my first lady. shes just over 10 weeks old, still have a good amount of white hairs and shes still swelling up.
    im gonna give her another week or so and chop her, but at the bottom branches i have almost non existent buds with huge white hairs, seems like these were popcorn buds that never developed

    do these things happen coz theres no light and would it be ok to chop still? as i dont think within a week they will develop

    There will always be a few tiny popcorn buds at the bottom-thats not an issue. Only real way to tell when it's ready is with a loupe though.

    yea ive ordered 1 of amazon, am waiting, thing is these aren't even popcorn buds, just inch long hairs on very tiny buds, i wanted to chop something off and smoke but i doubt white hairs will do the trick lol

    So taller non topped plants grow like this , As the bottom buds are so far away from the actual light and have lots of upper leaves blocking light . Alot of people will harvest the top buds 1st , Then leave the lower buds to fully mature then harvest ,

    Also i wouldnt just cut something off to smoke, It will all taste rubbish untill its been dried and cured . Make sure you dont cut your plants early though, Be sure to use that loupe and wait for 100% cloudy > 20% amber , You defo dont want to rush the last part )

    I always remove the lower part maybe a 3rd of the plant and get rid of most of the popcorn.

    I have my lights about 2.5 feet from top of canopy so thats probably it, lower parts must be over 3 feet away from light, i will take some pics when lights back on.
    got a few problems with it but since its almost time to cut her im not worrying too much, got yellowing leaves but ive burnt her so now am not sure if shes hungry or burnt and dont wanna feed her again. just wanna chop her tbh

    Great for throwing into your trim bag for hash later.
