You got a while to go, they do what they wanna!

If you are using a phone point the volume buttons to the ground to take pictures

 

[SpiffyFoxx]

What do you mean about the buttons?

Edit: I took them vertically, and there fine on my phone but when I upload them to the forum it turns the pictures to the left

I always run my pictures through the gallery and make a few adjustments, they always come out correct when I send them from there.

It feels like it's taking forever for them to finish, but they're getting there. The small one has gotten pretty frosty.
The lower buds on the big one aren't progressing much, what can I do to help with that?
Time estimate?

 

[Dudeski]

You still have a whike, now is when they really build some weight on the buds.

The other thing is as plants mature they can handle much closer LED clearances. At least if you're working with some of the Chinese LEDs. when I was running the Mars 2 700 I was about 300 actual watts I could hold 12 in above the plant and flower and get dense buds 18in down and that was about the limit of that light.

SF:

The reason for Topping, Fiming, Manifolding, LST, Super Cropping, SCROG and any other training methods are an attempt to answer that question about the lower buds. The short answer is they will never equal the main cola. The long answer is those training methods listed above and any others I may have forgotten that get all of the colas equal light will indeed make them better.

You could try Super Cropping and lowering the light but as a new grower that is a scary proposition. Just let this grow do it's thing and relish in your success. There will be future grows to experiment with.

Fiddled with my lights some. I'm going insane over here. Week 15 and they're not even close.
If this takes another month I'm declaring these semi-automatic.

 

[Dudeski]

Holy shit! Nothing automatic about 15 weeks

What strain is this supposed to be?

 

[SpiffyFoxx]

The larger one is fast buds green crack and the smaller one is their girlscout cookies. Idk wtf happened here.
