if shes there at 49 days^ ...I would say let her run 65-70 days atleast. shes got pleanty of fattening up to do. If you let her finish your in for a nice chunk of bud for sure, i dunno if thats ur first grow, but it looks great!...like i said let it finish completly and youll be very happy.
 
I don't know the strain, but I'd say she has a lot of fattening up to do, like ticalionstalion said. She looks great though, very chrystal-e.

that is a very sativa looking pheno of mli, it will likely finish somewhere around 75-85

well its my first real grow. I've grown for 1.5 yearsunder 150 watts of sprial floros. Just bagseed. This plant was germed on July 1st and vegged until August 20ish. Does the pot look too small? The bottom calyxes are starting to really swell. But you say 14 more days? Any idea on yield?

and yes, i have another pheno from the same seeds that is WAY more compact, its 1 month behind this one. But i thought it was tall/sativa, and there was also heat stress for 2 days. Would that make it sativa looking?

I grew the MLI a few years back and you will not be disapointed at all. She tastes good and yeilds well. And you did a great job on that bush for sure. My pheno finished at about 65 days but that pheno you have looks like a 70-80 day girl for sure. Nice pheno you have there. Did you clone? Hope so, you might want to keep this one. And you are half way hit her hard with some guano tea and she will fatten up fast.

Yeah that's got a ways to go. I thought mine was pretty slow to finish, but you've got something that looks to be even slower. Don't worry though because sometimes its worth it to wait for that super dank!

I would say you are a little over half way.. Be patient

It's kind of surprising that plant is an indica because I thought that most if not all indicas finished from 40 to 60 days, but you must have some kind of sativa hybrid going there..

good luck

You waited this long....let her fatten up, you'll be glad you did.

Ok so the consensus is to wait 10-14 days, and believe me I will. Yes, i have a mother plant now from when I topped the pictured plant in veg mode. I have no access to Guano tea until friday but I have blood and bone meal. How can I use these to help> Thanks to everyone who replied

The same plant 2 weeks 12/12



Same Pheno 2.5 weeks behind the bush


A shot of my Maple Family....2 different phenos, the ones flowering are all the same


Any educated guesses on yield? 1+ OZ 2+OZ???

You could top dress but this late.....I would wait until Friday and whip up a good tea out of wormcastings and High-P guano. You have another 3-4 weeks with her. So, that should be enough time. Add some molasses to the tea also. about 1 tablespoon per gallon. Should do just fine. good luck.

the leaves are starting to slightly yellow from the bottom up, what does this mean? And where can I purchase the castings and guano? Home Depot? Does that pot size look to be okay?

The pot size is a little small for me but I don't know the over all size of your flower area. The buds will be smaller is all. No biggie. The yellowing of the lower leaves is just the plant has used up the nutes in the soil. N most likely. Gusno is sold at hydro stores only not HD or Lowes. At HD and Lowes they carry the Espoma line of nutes. They are Organic and would work fine. Get some bone meal (4-12-0) and some molasses. Get a bucket or gallon jug. Fill with tepid water, add 2 tbls bone meal 2 tbls molasses and bubble the hell out of it for 24 hrs min. Water in. The 4% N in the bone meal will help with the yellowing and the 12 Phos. will help the bud size. You might need a source of K though. If you have a chance grab their Kelp meal also but sometimes they don't have it in stock. It (*kelp) will supply the K source. Just add a little to your tea.Hope this info helps.

Castings, garden center or hydro store. The HD and Lowes don't carry these either. You need to look online and find a hydro store near you.

Ok so I will do this asap. What would happen if the N was not taken care of and the leaves just had all the green sucked out of them? Pot size only determines final bud size? How long is it ok for the leaves to be running out of juice? I only have 10-12 more days.

I was just told in the Show It forum that my plant has suffered from light leaks. This is possible b/c I have to manually pull a cover over the cab at night b/c i have no front yet. Am I screwed, and what can be done?

I thought Maple Leaf Indica was a mostly Indica wide leafed strain. That there looks sativa to me. Is there some sativa in the strain? if so that might be a good pheno.

yes I've been told that this pheno might be special, and I have a mother of it pictured above. I am concerned about the health of the plant though. Can light leaks cause stretching and long flowering?

vonforne

as a matter of fact, yes it can. but usually it would stretch alot more. is the mother under 24/7? the leaves do not look any different than the mothers do. you are not really screwed but it will take her longer to finish. like i said earlier in the thread 3 wks or more. Did you fix the "leak"? She hasn't hermied on you if it is a light leak. I would secure the room of leaks and give her some ferts.....and wait and see. and about the description in the sales book on the amount of days it takes anything to flower I personally never go by. 50 days they say....I always check the trics. one of my biggest pet peeves is the "day counter" crowd. Oh but the book says 50 days and i counted my days, it should be finished.
