this girl is a bag-seed orphan and has been in 12/12 for 9 1/2 weeks, how much longer do you guys think before i put her into dark period?
Best way to tell is to go by the trich colors thru a mag. glass you want about 50x50 clowdy/amber. At 91/2 weeks she should be bout there.
9 1/2 weeks..? If you dont have a jewelers scope, then chop when all pistils are orange. If you havent flushed yet, then flush now - no nutes for the rest of its life only water, and chop when the pistils are colored and recede into the buds. I would think still a week or 2 max.
Go to RadioShack and get the 50x scope for about $12. The pistils are saying 1-2 wks but you need to check trich color. I had some with leaves that looked like yours,the dark area, and the trichs looked like they were degrading. Scope is a must to really tell. jmhfo havent tried the dark period stuff. maybe next time.
