If you haven't already you're going to want to get a 30-100x magnifying glass to check the trichs.

Here's a couple charts to know what to look for.

Thanks That was great advice. Those charts are perfect. Now I understand. I will get a loop right away. Found one on amazon 30x lit jewelers loop for $3.98

Well I harvvested plant one. This is def a learning process. I am no learning th edrying curing deal. I probably harvested a little early, cloudy trichs no amber though. I was too worried about overdone vs too soon. Next plant is waiting for some amber before harvset. The first plant after hangging 3 days and now in 1 pint mason jars yielded 1 1/2 pint jars. Not so much, but I learned a lot.

Here are some pics of girl #2. Day 58 and almost ready. Just wanna see some amber trichs, still just milky. I am not gonna rush this one.

BTW the yield from plant one was about 1.25 oz dried. Not as much as I would like, but I am happy considering this was a first time effort.

No pics but a question. I def pulled plant one too soon. Plant two is at day 73. The trichs are cloudy, a few of the lower branch outer buds have a few signs of amber they have mostly red hair. The cola still has 30% white hair and milky trichs. I don't want to over grow and loose potency but i do want to maximize same. Any thoughts? I ill try to post pics soon.

I think it's time, the trichs are cloudy with some suggestion of amber. The hairs are 85-90% red.
I deff was too early with the first plant , but this was a learning experience.

Well, you're the one with the magnifying glass but it looks pretty much done from where I'm sitting.

If anything, I would flush if you haven't and chop her in a week.

Good looking girl by the way!

Thanks I have been flushing since I cut plant one. I gave her 24 hrs of dark and will cut tonite. Even with the 30xmag glass, I am a little unsure due to lack of experience. I will learn as I go.

Here's a quote I have saved that you mind find interesting;


"The Stichting Institute of Medical marijuana (SIMM), the first company to sell marijuana through the pharmacies of Holland, has been investigating the medical possibilities of cannabis, together with TNO laboratories and the University of Leiden.

One of their discoveries has been that to keep the ripe plants in the dark before harvesting could increase their potency.SIMM’s growers separated a crop of mature plants, harvested half of them and kept the other half in absolute darkness for 72 hours before cutting and drying. Analysis of the resulting dried buds showed that some varieties had seen an increase of THC of up to 30%, while CBD and CBN remained the same."


Not sure where it came from but I've seen it posted quite a bit.

LOL thanks for the info. I had already cut after 24 hrs, I thought I was being very patient, that not being my best virtue. But next batch I will deff try the 72 hrs. BTW got 4 1 pint jars 7/8 filled of nice bud. Letting it dry/cure now. Thanks again. I think I will start a new journal on the reveg/bubble bucket i wanna do. If the plants co-operate and reveg. If not I will try some more bagseed. The 3rd try will be good seed. :peace:
