This is not a duplicate post. They are different plants in a different medium in different grow tents . Please don’t delete or tell me it’s. Duplicate, it’s not! Anyways now that I got that out of the way what does everyone think about harvest? These are two plants In this tent, 1 gg4 and one runts in soil. I also have 4 more in a 5x5 but those are In dwc mediums. Do these two ladies look like I could maybe start thinking about harvesting? It’s been over 9 weeks in flower ? The trichomes are milky.
They look beautiful @matty777,
You’re in the window, really up to your preference now. I’d wait for 10% or more amber personally.
I harvested a Bruce Banner auto that was cloudy, only a bit of amber. The high doesn’t hit me hard like I like, not as relaxing as some of my other plants that I left longer and doesn’t seem to last as long.
But ya, start thinking about your drying rack and getting your jars ready! Or Grove bags, if you cure in those.
Nice looking buds, too btw!
Thanks @Spudgunner . that’s what I was thinking as well. I’m gonna wait till I get the amber trichomes. I’ve been doing a ton of research for curing and drying . I was gonna hang dry for a week in 65 degrees ac room, then switch to those special curing bags I think I’m gonna order cause I wasn’t happy with my jar curing on my oat grow at all.
Wasn’t happy with my last grow at all.
I just bought those terp lock bags. Anybody have any experience with those?
Yeah, I still use jars, had pretty good success with them. I’m cheap! I don’t buy into all the new gadgets they come up with, figure I’m growing to SAVE money! If I want to spend, it’s going to be for something that will benefit the grow (lights, ferts, etc).
I use 650ml (about 22 oz) Classico pasta jars, they are actually Mason jars and seal really well. Won’t even go out to buy jars, just eat a lot of spaghetti before harvest! Burping isn’t an issue for a week, open the jars up to breath, go have a shower, then close them after I get out. Then drop in a 58% Boveda pack (size 8) and seal them up for a month or more.
Just need to make sure the buds are dry before you jar them. Roll up a joint and smoke it…if it stays lit and smokes to the end, good to cure!
I need to take a page from your book and stop buying so much stuff. Sometimes it’s necessary but I’m also growing to save money along with the joy of growing such a beautiful plant.
I just finally got my jacks fertilizer. I’m using it in my new seedlings and gonna use it from now on. Can anyone tell my the dosage information on it for seedlings, veg, and flower? I’m using a coco medium from now on.
Yeah I’m switching to jacks a and b with epson salt. A lot of people on the forum use it. I’ve done a ton of research and it seems a lot of long time growers swear by it .
I am finishing the plants I have off with the general hydro line since that’s what I’ve been feeding them throughout their life cycle. I have new seedlings now that I’m gonna start on jacks line.
@matty777 you asking about grove bags? I use grove bags and love them as well as jacks 321 in coco coir. First grow with new nutes and so far its my favorite yet out of house and garden, fox farm trio, and jacks 321
Girls look great. How long do you veg those for?
I think those were 1 week after they all got roots (1 month veg from clippings to 1 gal) they got flipped to flower to try and get them all the same size. Started out with a full 36 site cloner and only kept the best looking ones with the most root growth. The whole idea of that was to see how fast i could clone and flip to flower and if it could produce a good haul. I got 6 1/4 lb bags full so i was rather happy with my results
Is that a 4x8 tent ?
They sure are purdy. nice and fat.
Yep 4x8x6. But mine as well be a 4x7x 52 inches as my light restricts my grow as it cant go all the way to the top but its the only tent style i could use to fit my height requirements in my basement and i have the portable ac unit and dehumidifier on one side taking up a 4x1 rectangle space
How long did you veg these for?
I’m trying to get a perpetual Harvest going right now . I have a 5x5 and a 2x4 in my grow room but I’m hoping I can just fit a 4x4 instead of the 2x4 cause I don’t think it’s enough space for my veg. I’m playing around with everything now and trying to figure out if I should do a sea of green kinda things like you got there or if I should do a full 8 week veg and do less plants.
