    Hindu Kush Harvest

    Yes i used molasses the WHOLE time in flower, watch PH and nute burn. I started with low amounts early in flower ie 1st week, then increased to where the water was a moderate brown. This is after being jarred for a total of 3hrs after 2days of drying at 30% hum 83F. I have smoked a few of...

    Hindu Kush Harvest

    Just an update, jarred her today after checking her. buds were crispy on the outside to the touch and stems broke on top two main buds. Bad news.....weight dropped again from 30g to 19g, a bummer, but she does look good. All personal.

    Hindu Kush Harvest

    Smell during grow was that typical pungent kush smell, has gone away during dry, should redevelop more during cure. Strong cut grass smell during drying. As far as i can add up, she vegged 7weeks, flowered for a little over 9weeks, or 65days, i wanted to go another week for more amber as i...

    Hindu Kush @ 6wks Flowering.....How much longer?

    Tommorrow is half way through week 8, she's still packing on weight, and i'm seeing some fresh white pistils up top and on various other buds, i clipped off a small sugar leaf (budleaf) from one of the large cola's, and upon inspection @ 60x all trics are clear to milky, unsure of percentages...

    Hindu Kush @ 6wks Flowering.....How much longer?

    Thanks guys, i'm going to harvest this sat i beleive, if i see no amber before then i may push her longer, i'm just unsure of how much larger or potent she will get at this point, i'm at 58days. I'd like a one hitter if at all possible.

    Hindu Kush @ 6wks Flowering.....How much longer?

    Dunno if anyone is still following but i'm still holding off on cutting, i'm at a day past 8weeks, still no amber trics, and she's still packing on weight. Fan leaves are seaming to be non existant now from flushing/molasses, but she's still going strong and i can obviously tell shes spreading...

    Hindu Kush @ 6wks Flowering.....How much longer?

    2 days past 7 weeks Flower. I see very few if any Amber trics yet, areas are definently still bulking up. The wait continues. Popcorns are becoming penny sized :), these should and will get larger if i wait a few more weeks on those areas......unsure if i should or want too. I'm trying to hold...

    Hindu Kush @ 6wks Flowering.....How much longer?

    Yes it is normal as the plant uses sugars in them and no longer needs them, they'll fall off if no longer needed, any purpling yet on the buds? My tops 2 are getting massive imo, and the purple is spreading to the rest of the plant, 1 more week if i can stand it.

    Hindu Kush @ 6wks Flowering.....How much longer?

    Update, 7weeks even. I'm thinking 1 more week. She's swelling incredibly nice. I can see areas that are filling out, day by day. Just waiting for lower buds to have that bursting look to them.

    Hindu Kush @ 6wks Flowering.....How much longer?

    I'm going to do a bit more research on isopropyl for the stems and such, but i'd like to get something if anything from them, most have a coating of crystals or what looks like some trics. Well i'm happy to say that as more yellow fan leaves come off i guess more strength is being put into...

    Hindu Kush @ 6wks Flowering.....How much longer?

    Picture was taken today, just before making this thread. I did forget to mention the use of UV-B as well ~6-8hrs a day over the last 2 weeks. So 1week or based on the overall look for optimal harvest time for the Indica, she's still throwing alot of new pistils out down low, and at popcorn...

    Hindu Kush @ 6wks Flowering.....How much longer?

    Thanks for the reply guys, was afraid i might not get any based on the question at hand. I did forget to add though that all breader sites i've looked at for the HK = 7 weeks, or 49 days, and i'm around 44 i think, but fddk said in his tutorial that most sites are off a good week-2weeks for...
