Pros and cons... ;)

What's your RH like now?

We have had an unusually cold winter here. The more my heat runs, the lower RH goes...

RH has been ranging 32-40%. We are in single digit temps this AM and my RH is down to 28%.

I want a lower RH during flower, right?

I don't know!!!!

I am at day 100!! (SERIOUSLY!)

I checked trics....maybe 50/50 clear/cloudy at best.

New white pistels appearing every day on a good number buds.

I have lowered temps to simulate fall sort of...63 during dark, 78 during light.

I'm not real......Happy

Are you *sure* that you don't have ANY light in there? There are some 120 day strains... *shrug*

It's supposed to be AK-47 and White Widow....purchased as seeds, at different times...from the same source.

And SME, you can bet your habit that there is NO light leak in the room. I was exiting as the lights went off for the night and I double checked just before writing this email.... I am 100% sure that every light source, indicator button, switch, etc is covered with black tape....you cannot see your hand in front of your face!

I read somewhere that stress can add a good bit of time to the flowering period... Both my grows have gotten off to real rocky starts..(No pun intended Rky...) The current grow being the worse of the two...

Could what these girls went through in the early stages of their life be biting me in the butt now??? Or even before that?? The butchering I did to the plants before that?? Just trying to find some reason....

I might end up really happy that the WPM made me restart from seed.......especially if this delay is partially the result of mistakes I made 3 generations ago!

WW should be less than 9 weeks and the AK should be just a tiny bit more than that so you're way overdue by the calendar. I doubt early stress would cause that. Colder daytime temps could stunt things a bit but 25+ days extra?

If you say it's dark I assume it is so the next question is; are you sure you're reading the trichomes right? Are you checking multiple places, plants and flowers? Are you sure the timer is set to 12 hours of dark and not 11 or something? I have no idea why you'd still have 50% clear trichomes past 75 days with those strains, it really doesn't make sense unless they were mislabeled seeds.

Let's see some close ups, maybe you'll just have to start chopping.

i've been scratching my head too Happy.

like SME said, there's probably only a handful of +100 day strains. alot of them are haze strains.

i've looked at other forums with people with similar issues. one thing in common is WW taking a long time to finish. but not the AK.

strange question: are you color-blind by any chance?

Hahahaha, actually I do have a slight issue with color.....but I can see clear, cloudy....and I have had plenty of Amber beer....so I would recognize that color....if I was seeing it...lol

I have been having my son verify what I am seeing with the scope....lol
