Hell yea no problem people, it's always nice to see some sceince behind reasoning haha

No problem, thanks for checkin it out

Everyone talks about trichomes and their maturity, but i never really see any sceince behind it... it's just "yea man, like they change from clear to milky to amber". There's also the "amber is THC that is loosing potency" argument, where as i thought that it was a molecular change in the THC...

Hey man, yellowing and browning on the tips of the leaves? I'm guessing that your babies aren't able to breathe! Take off the hood, the only reason you would want the severe humidity is if you were dealing with CLONES, and the containing of the humidity is to help the root growth develop by...

That is quite the loss man, but since your whole set up if done, use the experience you've gained to make your next set up THAT much better whenever you're able to start up again! Always try to look at a bright side even though what your step dad did is unforgivable in a sense... Hope you get...

It's awesome to see a nice technique that is not only proven to help all strains, but also something that everyone can agree on based on stellar results! Gotta love rollitup for a great community! Keep on growing not only your plants, but your experience as well

Yea man, even if those 3rd party plants dissapear i would still consider your situation a win!! You salvaged what you think would turn out to be your two best, and you were origionally gonna just chop and get extremely premature buds that would've just been a letdown haha. I'm glad that you're...

I took a lot of consideration with what you said, and i HAVE heard about strongly sativa dominant strains sometimes have trichs that stay in the milky stage. I also agree that a more milky trichome density is more along the lines of the sativa type of high, therefore making a superb head high...

molasses is the shit! Your buds just soak up all of the nutes better from the micro organisms breaking it down organically with their waste by-product from the molasses. Buds start putting out some SERIOUS trichome density haha. And from what i see, it ups the ante on bud mass as well. Gotta...

You say in the very first post that "you are in no way changing the flavor, just enhancing what is already there" but it seems that you ARE giving it new flavors. So is it a very very subtle flavor that you are adding to give a "background" flavor note? I'm only confused of how putting other...

I agree with what you said regarding the pistil color. I've heard horror stories of people letting their flowering go for like 12 weeks just because they were relying on the pistil color to change, and when they chopped... Let's just say you couldn't open your eyes afterward because you were...

I was definitely lookin to wait it out a little bit regardless, so i'm with you on that buddy. And some of the pistils (i'm guessing stigma is the same thing) HAVE started to receed back into the fully swollen calyx, so my plants are definitely getting close to maturity, but only some just...

Glad i could give you some good insight brotha! So how's it goin? I'm guessing you are around the time in which you were gonna do your test run. Let me know how it's goin!

I have an i phone so i can't post any thumbnails, but a picture shouldn't be needed in order to answer my question. So i'm at 9 and a half weeks flowering, and my trichomes are all milky, but i haven't seen a single one turn amber yet. I'm using a 40x illuminated loupe that works GREAT, i can...

Rocpilefsj is correct. Personally i'd say that it's a good idea with your first harvest (i'm only guessing that it is because of the question) that it's a good idea to harvest in a couple different states! Try to harvest at the very first sign of amber (which will make sure that you're just at...

I think i might have the answer for why this happened to your buds, but i'm sorry to say that i don't have a cure for what ails your buds... Since you were feeding your plants every time you watered, yourgirls didn't have the necessary time to leech the nutes out of yhe soil, and then get a...

I kinda agree with simon in a way. You don't have to wait a MONTH bt at least wait another 2 weeks. I'm saying this because you will have your calyxs developed a lot more, giving you the bud MASS that you are looking for so that you may PROPERLY try your cure with results that will be closer to...

I'm hoping that you started your flush to get rid of the stored nutrients in the soil, forcing the plant to use up it's own nutes stored in the plant itself. This wil rid your plant of unwanted taste and aroma caused by nutes hanging around in your buds. Definitely so a 3x flush (flushing with 3...

Yo brotha, just took a look at your pics and i'd say that you are at least 2 more weeks from those girls' chop time. Let all of the pistils (hairs) turn color before you're thinkin about chopping. As for a scope, if you aren't color blind then a 4-8x magnifying glass will be fine to look for...

Keep them going man, don't cut them!! Get a 30-50x magnify illuminated scope, and use it to look at your trichomes. When they start turning from a milky white color to an amber color. When you have about 15% of them amber color, then you have entered the harvest window. It's unfortunate that you...
