Hi there, it is my first time growing outdoor. So please bear with me if I don't have all the right terminologies in the cannabis world. I planted my plants in Mid June and they were in veg for until Mid August, it seems to me that my girls are taking a long time to ripen for harvest. it is already towards the end of September now and no clear sign to me that they are near harvest at all. They have lots of trics and good resins, I think but pistols are still mostly white on most of my plants. i see a little orange here and there but overall its seems white to me. I am just a little worried since its nearing harvest time and they seem to be behind. Also on some plants the sugar leaves and some parts of the buds are turning a light purple, is this normal. And also when do I stop all nutes. i been using the hydroponics nutrient systems with some other bloom boosters only. I attached some pics in reference to what my girls look like right now. And please someone help me with this question, Doesnt it seem like the buds are too leafy or is it just normal? TIA for any replies back!! Happy growing from Ca!
Harvest time is when they are ready. Do u have a scope or magnifying glass to look at the trichs? If not get one.
In the words of Tom Petty "the waiting is the hardest part". Don't worry and don't rush and a cheap computer plug in microscope is a great idea. Buds look great!
