I do have mites, yes, but seeing as I’m outdoor and close to harvest I just cut out the fan leaves that had mites on them, have been more worried about my WPM issue…although this morning has been windy so 
its stays in check today!

@dragsterdad I just read back to the begining of your post…where abouts on the east coast are you? My plants started flowering going into the last week in july, maybe a touch before, similar to yours. I’m planning on harvesting 2 of my 5 this weekend and then following up the next couple of weekend with the rest…

You should. I went kinda crazy and popped 20 seeds. Don’t know what I was thinking. Right now I have 13 beauties and 2 low performers went outside. Annnndddd they are in flower. Didn’t think about that when I put em out. So will see how they do.

My wife supports this little venture and what I have learned has helped her with her gardens. That certainly helps on this end

Awesome. I had to tie down one to keep it below fence. I should have a microscope Sunday so I can get better trichomes pics that I can see better. I can see with a loupe but I need to see better.

I am finally able to see my trichs a little better. What I’m seeing and what y’all see may be two different things.
I think they’re about ready to harvest. I was gonna give em another week maybe
Two of my outdoor ladies look like this. My small girl isn’t quite this far and had bud rot so amputated a decent sized bud. Didn’t see any other spots

If that’s all buds and not on sugar leaves, I’d say they’re ready when you are. Lots of amber!

@elheffe702. It’s all buds took a ton of pics and 2 plants are at this stage. One not far behind. And 2 further back. These two look pretty awesome for my first two to get to harvest ever. I was so happy I forgot to take pics of the plants.
I flushed as well as I could today and I’ll have some help Wed. So maybe then. Was gonna put them in my tent dark overnight but scared to bring them in my grow room.
Can I put a large black trash bag over them for some dark time ???

It’d cause the humidity inside the bag to spike…I wouldn’t.
Got a closet?

These ladies won’t fit in any closet I have 
I can put them in garage Tuesday night till Wednesday at 430. Temps will be 75-79 so won’t be 
too hot and will be 99% dark.
Wife has my back but won’t let me put in bathroom because of very recent spider mite episode. Which is under control at this time

Final living update for Ladies # 1 and # 2. These were the leaders of my 5 outdoor ladies and because of me they had a rough time. But here we are, the night before harvest. They are tucked in the garage for some dark time so they will be ready when I get off work.
Unfortunately my short bushy lady has bud rot. I tried cutting out the mold back to clean growth and have a fan on her. She’s prolly a weekish away from being ready. I may have to cut her early to salvage some bud

I keep hearing horror stories about bud rot! I found a tiny bit on a popcorn bud when harvested, however I have been able to somehow avoid it in an seriousness on the rest of the ladies thus far (knock on wood). My buddy, who I gave 2 plants back in may, had a case of bud rot starting on a pretty dense bud area on one of plants and was also going away for 2 days. He decided to harvest both plants rather than risk coming back to rotted ladies…
I hope they make it to harvest for you @dragsterdad !

It’s pretty bad. I may take her down this weekend. She is dried out but 
I don’t know. My other 4 are 5+ feet tall and this one is 2.5 feet and bushy. Guess I’ll find out soon lol
