Ok, after i minor problem with mites which was sorted out thanks to help from people on here, i'm now looking forward to harvesting my plant. I'm not sure if it is ready yet, the pistols towards the bottom of the plant are mostly brownish, but the pistols toward the top of the plant are still white with only a little brownish colouring towards the ends of them. Is it ready for harvest? My next question: I've got a large cardboard box with bars in to hang the harvest, i've also got an electric fan to use once they are in there, will this be enough to stave off mould and other pests? And lastly: I don't whether anyone can tell, BUT how much pot do you think i'll be looking at getting from this baby? Muchas gracias mi amigos y amigas!
if you can, check the trichomes. that's what will give you the most precise information on when to cut. either use one of those self-lit magnyfing glass (30X min), a camera on macro mode, microscope or whatever. cloudy trichs give off a head high, amber ones are more of a couchlock stone. so find the right mix for you ^^ for the box, i'd say it should be alrite. with good airflow, mold and such should not be a problem. from the pics though, i'd say it probably still needs a little while. but you're the only one who can tell for sure, i don't have the plant in front of me.
Cheers mate, it's a Kali Mist and is supposed to be ready by early November, but the leaves are startng to yellow at a really fast rate. This is my first outdoor grow after a failed indoor attempt using bl**dy miracle grow! I'll try to get some better pics taken and uploaded, i've had a little oven dried sample, and it was really nice
Cheers Spanishfly, i'll keep sampling til it's just right. ps; Where in Spain are you? I'm in Costa Calida, sooooooo much sun!
Nice weed tree. It looks exactly like mine even the buds but im growing indoors Yeah get a cheap microscope, take a leaf off a nice big bud and check out the trichomes. GL! Take pics when you harvest!
the point i was trying to make was that you are asking questions which are not possible to answere. (my age not withstanding)
My apologies, in my inexperience i thought there was a certain time to harvest the perfect crop, without realising it has to be perfect for ME. Although i'm sure i only asked one question which i now realise was impossible to answer, pedantic i know but hey ho i've got youth on my side, well no, no i haven't Hasta luego mi amigo
