i have a seven month old plant - strain holland hope. i don’t know when it started flowering for sure. my notes show i started fert. with shultze fert. on 8/12/16. i now have what i would consider to be small buds (about diameter from a nickel to a quarter and average length of 1 to 2 inches.). the…

I am a newbie so take what I say with a grain of salt!! You said 7 months old but I’m hoping you meant 7 weeks! I went to 12/12 when my plants started to flower on their own, I then figured on 65 days since that is what was indicated as flowering time. I bought a hand held microscope which I thi…

Very nicely put @tarzan ! I agree about when to harvest. :evergreen_tree::evergreen_tree::v:

Given the time money and effort you have invested then yes I would follow through with what you’ve started. I have a journal where I have noted the things I have learned, the time table for the plants growth and notes on my mistakes so I can avoid them next time. I would write down everything I’v…
