Hey, sorry to be the noob here, but .. flushing? Isn't that when you cycle clean water and clearing solution to remove salts from the growing material so that nutes will continue being absorbed properly? How does this have to do with harvesting and what am I missing? :) Thanks.

Hey guys. I'm nearing harvest (in about 2 days I'll do the first round), and noticed today that the very top of one of my plants was dry, and had some mold forming around part of it. I quickly cut the whole part off, with some spare. Then I separated the parts in the moldy areas from the parts...

Hey guys. I've been growing 2 lovely plants for a while and I think I'm almost there. I have one Aurora Indica and one AK-48. Enclosed are some photo's. They both look pretty cloudy to me, but no ambers yet. Should I wait for a few to pop up before havesting? (I generally prefer more head high...

OK, so I've done a check. I'd say the Trichoms are about 60% clear, 40% cloudy (this is on the more advanced plant). How quickly does the plant start degradation if not harvested on time?

Thanks canefan. Where do I check the trichomes? On the buds themselves or the little leaves that come out of them?

Hey boys and girls. I have 2 lovely plants that will be ready for harvest in a matter of days. Unfortunately, I am going to be away all next week. I have a friend who will water them, but I have two concerns/questions: 1) The harvest might be several days overdue. Is that a big deal? How much...

Well, I actually recommend this for a scope. It's super cheap and really good enough (and free delivery!): https://dx.com/p/60x-100x-zoom-microscope-with-led-illumination-light-25239

Hey guys. I have a follow up question. I started reducing my plants nutrients (currently at about 30%). Of course, this results in the leaf tips starting to become yellow etc. Is this something I should be worried about at this stage, or do I just plow through and let the plants deteriorate...

Alright guys, thanks very much :)

BTW, these are they. If anyone has a different opinion as to when they should be harvest ready, I'd be happy to hear. The one on the left is Aurora Indica, and seems slightly ahead. The right one is an AK48, and I suspect he might have a little longer.

Hey guys. I have two plants (my first!) approaching harvest time. I am guessing a week at most. I've been reading around and still have a couple questions I'm not sure about. Would be nice to know: 1) If there any problem in clipping and drying the plants part by part, as they become...

Haha this forum is the best. Thanks guys, applying your wisdom as we speak :) (btw, actually do have drainage, but I recently put them in a larger tray that doesn't, so they end up soaking their bottoms in solution anyway. My bad.)

Hey guys. So this is my first grow. Indoors, hydro (in Coco coir), using fox farm nutes. My plants are in week 9 and starting to bloom. I have one AK48, one Aurora Indica. The AK is doing badly. The bottoms leaves are yellowing out. I've tried reducing nutes for a couple of days (suspected it...

Hey guys, this thread is great. I still need some help though. My plants are in their early budding stages, hydro. One AK48, one Aurora Indica. The AK48 is showing a fast growing nut problem which I am now quite certain is Nitrogen related - the bottom leaves are becoming yellow, drying up and...

Yea, I think I'll make a cardboard door and replace this one with it. It's a rented house so I can't really mutilate anything :) thanks.
