I think you have at least another week. The humidity might be slowing or hindering the stretch of your flowers. I'd try to get the humidity down to 40 and drop the lights closer and angle optimally if possible. That last picture looks like a sauna hehehehe. What has your lighting schedule been throughout it's life? and Temperature?

what are the colors of the trichromes??
Do you have a microscope?? If not go to Radioshack. they are 12 bux. They work great
All you need to do is pic a leaf, look at the trichromes. If they are Cloudy or clear wait a little longer. you want them to be 50/50. Here is a pic to go by

thanks people.
Any ideas on how to lower the humidity? I am having trouble keeping the temps up as it is so i have had to keep my ventilation off.
they have been on 16/6 for most of the time.

The cold combined with lighting schedule and humidity could be playing a role in the slow growth. I agree to pick up a microscope and check your trichomes. If they're real clear then you have some time to go. You should be going at least to day 65 I presume. A stagnant fan may lower your humidity.

20/4 Is the best for autos. And Changing the light wont hurt at all. Giving a plant more light will never hurt. But you could also Give it more dark now. To enduce the trichromes to harvest sooner. The more dark you give, the closer the plant will think it is to winter. So it will make the plant hurry and be ready for harvest sooner.

Hey james,the Bio-bloom should be used in combination with bio grow or fish mix..
I've used bio-bizz for a few grows now. I found the grow to be extremely weak,so I upped the dosage and my yellowing eventually went away. I did suffer some cal mag issues aswell which the alga-mic was supposed to keep in check,but it didnt. I got my hands on some cal-max(cal mag) and it fixed the problem...now I'm using puravida grow-bloom and magi-cal liquid karma and hygrozyme with some supplementing with my left over bizz products from time to time.now my plants are the heathiest I've grown yet.
I would recommend puravida next time you plan on purchasing nutes. you'll end up using less so it will last longer aswell as it's much cheaper and way more effective,IMO.
Also check the biobizz site..they have a feeding in the schedule if you dont already have one,it's pretty fullproof aslong as you up the grow(fish mix is strong).I did find it pretty close to impossible to burn my plants with the bizz as I was pouring it on..the bizz did give excellent results,although I decided to try something a lil'more simple and more user friendly with less parts to mix.
Anyway thats my experience with the biobizz line,hopefully that'll help a bit.
I wish you luck and good smoke.

You see those plants. I call them Boners when they look like that. You see how all the leaves are shooting up and trying to reach that light? They are telling you, they love you and want more of what you are giving them. Just do not over do it.
Did you get that Microscope yet?? Like you said those hairs are getting brown at the tip, But We need to know about the trichs.
Also Cut off all those dead Fan leaves and some of the Big Fan leaves at the bottom. It will help with the nutes inside the stem. Also It will now focus more on where the bud is and not trying to grow the plant on the bottom. And CUT THE STEMS OFF THAT HAVE NO LEAVES!! I see some =)~
Also how many days left do you think?? You look close. And if you have or when you get to 2 weeks left. JUST PLAIN WATER!! If you dont have or are using a sweetner. It will help with whats left in the plant. And shoot it up.
keep up the good work. they look great, and I cant wait to get myne as big as yours. No homo!

i grow low ryder diesel. have had some of the same problems with the lower leaves turning yelowish .hasnt had any real effect on the plants though atlest nothing noticeable im 95% sure that they will be allright. if it gets worse flush your pots with distilled or R.O water then ajust your nutrient strength a little at a time till you find the right dosage

there suppose to turn yellow during Flowering. That means the plant is dieing and using up all the nutes it has in those leaves. But we dont need Fan leaves because the plant stop growing Vertical. Some of them you keep at the top for photosynthesis. the more the merrier. but when flowering under this type of light and dont have enuff we prune the bottom to focus on the top main buds.
