no trichomes after 76 days auto,wtf??

Post by duke »

hi all i got this strange thing ive never seen before i have a barneys farm zskittles og auto 76 days from seed and now a bigish size but theres zero visible sign of a trichome and even the foliage feels dry and not a trace of sticky,it has only very slight odour even if you rub the foliage or bud you can barely smell it! i shall try get some close up pics so you can see my surprise and concern i maybe wasting my valuable small space invain and end up short and straight!
as anyone had this with autos? i have only grown maybe a dozen autos as opposed to many hundreds of photoperiod grows and ive seen some odd ones,but this?]anyone?ps
feed dutch pro bloom 1-1.2 ec ph varied 5.6-6.2
temps 20-28c rh average 55%
lighting 250w hps 24=7

Tjays a bit random. It's as if they don't want to mature and fatten up.

Sorry no ideas to bring to party on this.

its odd alright i looked the info up on barneys and they say its sticky as feck and takes 70 days ,is that really meant to be a fact or do you have to add 2 weeks atleast like a photoperiod? if thats the case it should be finished and as you can see its a long way of,why do i get the oddball autos all the time! :bang head:
glad ive got reliable photoperiods in bloom as well thats for sure,thanks for reply,heres link to strain info

I had a look at strain info and what you have isn't what I read. Like you said its a 70 so add 2 week that 84. But still should be looking a bit more ready.


How have you grown this? Any stresses? Only ask as the leaf edges are curling but then again that could be age

hi it was started in a 6 inch pot of ugro coco under cfl for about 4 weeks then repot into 10ltr pot of coco simply due to lack of space for germing in large pots from the of,then under 250w hps about 12-14 inches from canopy,no physical stressors some gentle lst and tying is all the training its had,temps are fairly stable 20-28c good fresh air supply and osc fan.
fed daily starting low 0.80 ec and when they got moving after repot up nutes to 1-1.2 ec max,tbh its nearly always had curling leaf edges and to see if it was due to feeding or temp i stopped feeding for 2 days and just gave water with bg of -46ec and leaves remained curly edged,so changed back to the 125w cfl for a few days so temps dropped to 25c,made no difference,
checked ec of run of several times and found around what im adding coming out.
roots look perfect white and clean and she gets 20% run of minimum each feed,so im baffled!
i may just stick to photos in doors i doing well with same auto out in my sunroom crystals galore sticky and smelly as youd expect from a barneys offering!cheers for any ideas :idn:

Those leaf edges dont look like typical heat stress either. Tis a strange one indeed duke. Maybe try throwing some UV at it and see if it kick starts anything. I know that when they breed autos every so often one seed will need 12/12 before it will flower.
