So i have like 5 plants - others are all slowly growing - a few already died (had like 8 from start) this is my #1 Plant - in terms of growth and aesthetics - I have no idea what Strain they are. What do you think? It has been planted for 2 months - can anyone identify what the newly forming Yellow / light growth is (the thing right in front of the spider) - Oh yes, is this spider fine to keep on my plant - should i move him somewhere else? - Im sure it eats the bugs and things since it's an outdoor plant (I live in South Africa) Any tips/advice welcome. Thanks Ill upload 3 pics - First one is from a couple of weeks ago and the two with a spider on the plant is from today. 1.) Couple weeks ago 2) Today - Spider on leaf closest to camera 3) Spider has moved / look @ his web This is my first post here - tell me if I did sth wrong. Thanks
You did a lot of somethings wrong i'm thinking bro. A lot of em. Watch out for spiders man, i almost lost my pinky a few weeks ago to a spider in my plants. I'd trash those and research for a good week before you start up again. The medium your growing in doesn't look good to me. That newly forming light growth is flowers, that's all your gonna get out of em and they're covered in webs. At first i was hoping you were kidding =P my plants are a little younger than yours the biggest comes up to my neck.
Damn, so i should throw it away, study the art of growing weed and retry? It sounds better than just winging it like I am now.
Don't take this wrong man i know it's harsh but it's true. If you half ass your grow your going to get half ass plants. The more research you do the better they're gonna look. Check out the ultimate grow dvd on youtube, you can watch it for free and they cover indoor and outdoor growing. It was what i used to get started and i did great on the first run.
Okay no problem, I have a question though - I haven't smoked weed in weeks and i'm thinking - that plant is pretty juicy looking. (at least the area with crystals) Instead of getting rid of the whole thing, could i salvage that part and smoke it? lol
Yeah it might actually be good, isn't gonna be easy getting webs off though lol. you can't just pluck it and smoke it though, you need to wait till the trichomes go cloudy at least then they need to be dried for days and cured for a couple weeks before they'll be worth much to smoke. You can quick dry them but it feels like 25% of the strength you have after a two or three week cure.
It looks like one of them at least hermied, if it produces and seeds they will be female btw. second pic looks like a big pollen sack right in front.
Alrighty, I guess I shall study how to dry and cure then do so . Then watch the ultimate grow DVDs and try again
Hey bro. i have done a little bit of research about dying and curing but they only referr to Large plants - how can i dry/cure for best results with such a small plant? Any advice? Thanks
Cut the little bud off and leave it in a paper bag till its dry then just smoke it not worth curing that Lil thing bro ---------------------------------- there's certain accidents where you may be drunk and on drugs. but it's going to happen weather you are or your not -Ricky
Pop new plants ASAP too lol ---------------------------------- there's certain accidents where you may be drunk and on drugs. but it's going to happen weather you are or your not -Ricky
Lol thanks - how long would it take to dry in paper bag? - how will i know it's dry? (must i feel it?) thanks
Strain dependent. I have big colas dry in 5 days some 2 weeks . With these probably a few days and yes it will be dry like bud you buy ---------------------------------- there's certain accidents where you may be drunk and on drugs. but it's going to happen weather you are or your not -Ricky
