Would love to know the best time to harvest these. I'm in Southern hemisphere, they are outdoors. Seeds were assorted, not sure what varieties though. Tried two different cameras to get a decent close up, but this is best I can do. Should i wait for more red pistils? Don't want to leave them too long and wreck the high.
1. i love
how marijuana
loves the
sun.

2. wait for some red hairs maybe about half, or 2/3 of the flower, or get a good microscope (60 x) look at the trichomes... there are varying opinions about the desired ratio of clear:amber and/or milky:amber and/or.. blah blah blah
chop her when she's looking ready is basically what you want. if she was too much of one kind of high and not enough of the other kind, then try again on the next plant; im hoping this isnt the last plant you ever grow. :)

3. dont ever worry about killing the high. see #2.
4. love your plants

Thanks lochem, they are truly loved !!! It's been a labor of patience - planted the seeds in September (our spring) in the pots they are still in. I started with really good soil and have used virtually no fertilizers (a bit of nitrogen from seaweed supplement) and it's been such a rainy summer i've let nature do ALL the work. I will have to wait 12 months to 'experiment' with best time to harvest, as I won't plant again until September.

Can anyone advise of the strains/varities from the pics? I'm looking for a nice buzz that also help relax neuromuscular pain from MS.

Thanks for feedback!

looks like a sativa dominant hybrid - you may be looking at a 9+ week flowering time, but it could also be less
good luck, and dont take my word for it - you should know when the time is right

Day 53 marley's collie. Thinking of starting flush tomorrow. Still have 60% of new white stigmas on most buds.
Strain is supposed to be 60-65 days.
What does everyone think.

First grow unknown bag seed 43 days in flower was wondering how much longer?
It's hard to see in that light, but from what I AM able to see, most your hairs are still white. Wait til; a good 65% are red. And if your able to see the trics, wait til you see a large number of cloudy, and a few amber, but that is really a personal preference.

If you like, wait til the hairs turn a bit more and snap some new shots of her. Otherwise, looks pretty good, buds look nice and all. Just give her LOTS of light til harvest.

THAT my friend....is pretty. It's like Christmas in Amsterdam :-P
And yeah, if your gonna flush, go ahead and start soon, but a lot of people don't believe in flushing. But it's really a personal thing. I DO believe in flushing with ice water when your doing your final flush. Since it mimics the first frost and puts bud production into overdrive. (Or so i've been told, i'm not a plant ;-))

Thanks dajosh being my first grow it certainly has been a learning experience and ive made my share of mistakes. Well ive been struggling to keep my water temp up without a water heater in it so maybe i will let it get below 60 on the final few days of the flush.
Thanks
