Im on my first ever grow. I was wondering if anyone could tell me roughly what stage Im at and if it looks ok because I haven't a clue!! Sent from my GT-I8190N using Grasscity Forum mobile app
Your plants flowering right now (its starting to produce actual bud). The white hairs on the plant need to be 50% amber before harvesting. Hope that helps. Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum
sort of... actually you're talking about the trichromes, which are the little crystals growing on the flowers. you want THOSE to be about 50-75% amber. go get a small magnifier from radio shack, you should be able to find one that'll magnify 100x for 12-15 bucks. good luck!
More amber trichromes will be more of a body high but if you harvest when they turn cloudy/white it will be more of a head high. The trichromes go from clear to cloudy to amber over time so its up to you to decide when to harvest
Thanks alot. Ill post pics again in two weeks! Sent from my GT-I8190N using Grasscity Forum mobile app
Damn you got a green thumb! Good work! Another month or so and you can harvest her! You sure this your first grow Im j/k
Hold on as long as possible. Make sure your trichomes aren't cloudy....looks like you will still have a little weight added as well.
Start cutting her down start from the top. Make sure all clean cuts. Then cut the next lot. Then the last lot.
You are flowering!!! From what I have read in ALOT of threads is that it depends on what kind of high you like. From what I have read if you like an active uppity buzz harvest when they are 35-40% amber. If you like a couchlock can't move high wait until they are 75-85% amber. I guess you get more thc with it 35-40% and more cbd when it is 75-85%. Also depends on if it is more sativa or indica. http://boards.cannabis.com/marijuana-methods/205997-different-effects-different-marijuana.html http://www.rollitup.org/t/cannabinoids-thc-cbd-cbn-do-you-know-the-difference.268014/
Leave it as long as possible, but I have a buddy facing the same predicament but he ain't chopped just yet
