Help with what stage of flowering

[Klleblanc]

Hello all!

First time grower who could use a little wisdom from my fellow greenthumbs..below are 2 pictures of my 2 shishkaberry plants .. both are about 5 or so feet and a about a meter in diameter .. they seemed to have gone through or are in the tail end of the stretch phase .. but the bud growth seems delayed .. best guess on which week of flowering and how long away from harvest I am.. all input is welcome

Welcome to 420 Magazine Klleblanc,
I would say you are about 2 weeks into flower. When she will be ready is up to the genetics... did you get a rough estimate from the seed provider as to how long this strain flowers for?

These were clones actually.. I figured and planned for a mid September to early october harvest. I also have some rene growing, see below, that seems more along in the flowering.. a clone as well. I plan on covering through late September into October to combat any mold issues

I second that, about 2 weeks. And about 3 weeks for the other.
Nice plants, they'll give you a good yield.

Thanks! Appreciate it .. its my first actual grow season.. I have a few if those rene all the same size .. and the shishkaberry is doing nice.. had some lock out or calcium deficiency.. but reset the soil and treated with calmag... seems to have worked .. had some OG Kush growing however got screwed with male seeds .. any advice to produce to best yield ?

I'd give them some flower nutes, and some flower booster, and some kind of enzymes if you want to take it further. Do not mix it too strong, I'd mix at about 50% of recommended dosage at first, and don't feed too often.

Hi @Klleblanc and welcome to the forum! I am growing a variant of that plant, a hybrid developed by Santero called Berry D'licious, a cross of Shiskaberry and Sour Diesel.
My plants have been very slow to show sex, even 6 weeks into veg I still have one being reluctant to show, but it does seem to be a very strong plant and I am looking forward to a great harvest in a few months. As I understand it, this is a 9 week flowering plant, and I agree that you are roughly 2 weeks in according to your pictures. It does not look like your bud growth is delayed, it just takes a while to get things going, and even at week 6 or 7 you will think they look pretty small. That last 2 weeks however is when things get very exciting, and your buds will typically double in size and weight in that last stage of the grow.
