It's actually only been alive for 8 weeks. It's an autoflower from the joint doctor. From what i can gather about the size and branching, i wouldn't guess that it was the original or thenumber 2. Being that it didnt turn purple, i'd say its not purpleryder... so I'm left with assuming its deisel ryder from the mix pack

Time to Harvest Hint: When the resin glands or trichomes (on your buds) are about one-half turning a milky white or amber in color (versus clear or translucent), and the small hairs have begun to turn orange, brown or reddish in color, it is then time to harvest your weed. You have a window of 5-7 days for peak harvest and potency. I will tell you, the more amber the trichomes have turned, the 'stonier' the pot will likely be.

This is why I recommend harvesting when about 1/2 of the resin glands have turned amber in color - be patient, and be sure of what you see. You will harvest excellent weed at this point without passing the premium harvest window and the weed will generally NOT make you completely lethargic when smoked.

Thank you very much. That is very helpful, but i have a question. Can/Should I harvest the top buds that are ripe and let the bottom ones recieve more light and keep the plant growing a little longer untill the bottom buds finish?

waiting it out. Leaving most of my lights on the bottom to concentrate on finishing it a little more evenly. Thanks everyone. If it gets over ripe, then the tolerance from smoking only this shouldn't be too bad. I could go for some crippling krip.

will do a report as soon as possible. I'll do a water cure for part of the crop to do some sampling as soon as 7 days from chop. Also will give a wet yield. The dry should be a quarter of that number. Then, i'll test that theory and post actual dried yield. My next grow is some Fast Bud from sweet seeds. Should be done faster than this lowryder x deisel(soma new york city diesel) varient. Fast bud is also a diesel x lowryder cross.
