Looks real good. I'm holding back a little based on a friend of mine and his opinion. I want to chop, but he advises holding off for another week or two. He's grown before and I'm like a little kid on Christmas eve. What strain are your buds? My Ice Wreck started flowering about 2 weeks ago and now is going mental. I started feeding the Ice Wreck again. Flushing the other 3 plants as they are the ones that are close to harvest.
ThAnks man ... I beleive the strain is chemdog .... I know its a afgahn broadleaf species but not 1000% sure on strain
I wouldn't know an Afgan broad leaf or not. Just learning. Chemdog is a pretty good smoke, I've had it before.
Yeah it just takes a bit longer to cure ... It's deffintetly on its way to that skunky grapefruit smell but it still has more to go
Your RH is a bit high... I cure 70-75 degrees Fahrenheit and RH45-50
OK thanks. You say that is a cure. I'm drying right now. And isn't a good cure 55 in the jar. I might have to turn my Ac on.
None that's your plants way of telling you it's ready ... Fan leaves turn yellow and die as he plant puts all the energy into making buds ... It's on a great course don't mess with it too much and I would deffinetly flush today... Flush with copious amounts of water until it starts to flow from the bottom of the pot ( about 3-4 liters)
For drying I cut the whole plant from bottom hang upside down for 3 days in a pine cabinet with a air circulator ( not a fan) temp of 75 and a RH of 50-55 then cut all fan leaves and smaller leaves( they will wrap around your buds when they are ready to be trimmed) then after you trim let hang another day then break down the whole plant into sections and let that dry a day then chop into buds and when the stems at the base of the buds snap clean off its jar time ... You can get away with a bending stem too but the cure might take longer ... That's what did iff you look up a few posts you will see my buds
Thanks for the tip, and what about harvesting in two times is it worthy?
Then give it more time ... Are you checking tricombs? ... That's the truest way to tell if your plant is ready to chop of not... And I personally chop all at once instead of stages because the plant then sends energy and sugars that would normally be used for bud production to the "injured" site ... Buts it's all subjective everyone has their own opinion
Thank you Sir
Thank you. I am on course for separating the plant. It's for science for me. Others to follow. It was a 2 'er. Stunted it with bug spray early on. Took this one all cloudy. Hoping it works out. Saw trics only on the sugar leaves.
You need a mag glass to get a good idea on tricombs and if they are on the outer sugar leaves then they should be on the inner buds aswell... But it's all about trial an error
Have a loupe 30x. Checked today. Not ready yet. Do you recommend cloudy or mix amber. Pure tangerine powerplant. Smelled awesome about two weeks ago. Then lost that tangerine smell. Does that matter.
The tricombs r mostly cloudy with some amber, I flushed it now so i ll give it 7 to 10 days..
I like 25% Amber 70 % cloudy and 5% clear ... Those are my golden numbers lol... And it also depends on strain pics would help and maybe a stronger mag glass... I use an electric microscope with a light that looks like a "v" when opened ... It's 100x mag and it's inly 20 bucks ... Hydrofarm makes them and it is the best way to check tricombs while still on the plant ... Other than that you would have to chop a sample and use a 2 million dollar micronmicroscope lmao
Thanks for the info Sir.. will let you know. Going to get an air circulator.
No worries ... Good luck and happy growing!
