I'm running 5 gal rdwc .. this and baby in other bucket!! Qb lights too.. please help. Please save me from myself !!
IMO the buds you showed us looks like they have at least a week left.. Or like 2... Too many white pistils on them Sent from my POCOPHONE F1 using Tapatalk
Do you have a jeweler's loop or anything that can get you down to about 60x? If so, snip a piece of bud material, actual flower not sugar leaf and check your trichomes. That's a guaranteed correct answer every time my friend. If you don't have one, you need one. I mean, if you want to be "sure" about when. Good luck bro, but in my opinion, you still have a little bit left. Nice job by the way also. She's a tank. Sent from my SM-G965U using Grasscity Forum mobile app
Very nicely done. Personally, if I was smoking it, I'd let it go longer. Commercial op --> chop. Also Im new to autos but from what I am seeing with them, larger plants (and your qualify) take longer to ripen. I currently have WW that is on day 92 and I have only chopped one branch so far. It was a beautiful 1 Oz nug but the others parts of the plant still have 2+ weeks (much less even plant than yours) which will take them well past day 90. All in all I'd say ditch the timeline. Bigger autos seem to grow just as long as photos (2+ month of flowering) from what I have seen.
Thanks everyone.. a bud just fell off I trimed and gonna dry it and use as test!! It was super sticky and just yummies!! I'mma Iet everything else just fill out and take it's course.. another week or TWO !!
I just ordered one from AliExpress.. so gonna be awhile.. I thought I was good with digital endoscope or my awesome camera on phone.. but, as you said, I need the zoom of a real microscope.. thanks
I luckily had an old microscope from when I was a kid. Only way to truly know when the window is. Are pretty inexpensive and invaluable for growing. They still look like they have a few weeks left.
I generally aim for 95-99% brown pistils - my last 3 plants now - which is when I noticed the harvest window opens... So IMO you're still at least 1.5 weeks out... Maybe a week minimum. Sent from my POCOPHONE F1 using Tapatalk
