OMG, thanks all. I don't know why I was freaking since she was SUPPOSED to be a fem, but it's my first sativa. Thank goodness I didn't trash her. And thanks to all of you!

If these pix are clear enough to tell, please tell me if this sativa after 3 weeks of flowering looks like a male or female...or hermie? I just can't tell. My other two indicas on the same time cycle are clearly females, but this one isn't clear to me. Thanks for your help.

Thanks for the responses. I think I will take a take a few branches now that show the most amber and maybe just harvest them over the course of the next few days/week. Cheers!

I would appreciate any feedback as to whether this 55-day-old Blackjack plant is ready for chop. I can see amber trichs only in a few areas, mostly on the tiny leaves. Not seeing any amber on the bud. So when they say to harvest at 10% amber, does that mean to factor in the entire plant? In...

I agree with poster that your lack of adequate light has prevented timely conversion from cloudy to amber trichs. If you want to play it safe, harvest one now and check it out over the course of a week's time to give it SOME drying benefit (as opposed to nuking it, which is harsh). By that time...

I'm not a photographer, but I took this through a magnifying glass so I could get close-up on the trichs. This is when I harvest ~ 10% amber.

Thanks, TC. I had a similar experience with WW, with peak time occurring between 7-10 weeks. Now I understand why.

There seems to be some disagreement as to whether or not it's good to go with 2-3 days darkness at the end, but the book that I have most definitely says do NOT do this, just keep it at 12-12 until the harvest. Here's a pic of what you're looking for trichome-wise.

Hmm, two good points to consider, so thanks for that. The plant has gotten banged around a little bit, so maybe that's a factor. I started counting Day 1 when I switched to 12-12, is that not the correct way?

Since it is 50 days in 12-12 and seed catalog said it needed 60 days to finish, I wasn't looking too closely yet. But I borrowed a magnifier and shot pictures through it, and it looks to me like I have too many amber trichs in certain places--on some leaves it looks 50% amber! On other buds, not...

You'll know peak harvest time when trichomes turn brown. Continue to take pix and look at them on a computer at 100%. You can spot the brown ones pretty easily. Some say at 10% brown, go to town; others, like me, prefer couch lock to head high, so then you let them go until ~ 20% (all relative...

Thanks for all the comments & advice. Sounds like I should do no harm and she might just come back to life.

ph has been spot-on throughout, no nutrients added except vitamins, which seemed to have brought it back from the near-dead; just wasn't sure how to continue, but you're likely right about the overwatering, so I will hold off for a while; thanks for your info. This is a new seed to me...

This sprout is 2 weeks old. I transplanted it for the second time today, as I suspected the roots were tangled once again. They were. It's the first time I have tried Happy Frog soil, and the roots are having a hard time getting through. Just when I thought it was dead, it seemed to revive a bit...

One day won't hurt if you plan to adjust to 6.5 as soon as possible and keep it there. Good luck.

Cool, thanks a lot!

Based on the number of amber trichomes, it looks ready to me...BUT she is only 45 days into flowering, so do I chop now or wait?

I will do just that. Thanks for the help.:clap:

From what I read in the archives, mushrooms suddenly appearing in your cannabis soil overnight can either be benign or helpful but rarely harmful, right? Please confirm. If anyone knows what kind these are, please advise if I should kill them or leave them alone since I am about 1 week or less...
