Hello
How close do you think I am? (I have the tric charts. No need to send)
This girl is about 9 weeks in flower. It’s supposed to be a photo but it decided to start flowering on its own under a 18/6 light schedule. Currently under 12/12.
It shows significant Ruderalis genetics (So I’m told) so I don’t know if it will have any potency.
I’m looking for an energetic high. I have plenty of couch weed already.
Can you tell anything from the pics? Not in a hurry to harvest if it’s not ready.
Seeing allot of glass/milky I am w @Smokesdaily another week or two…. And yes heavy on the ruderalis gene that one is! I’ll bet it’s fire when it’s done!
@HotAndHumid with the cloudy to clear ratio from what i can see, right now youd get a racey paranoia type feeling. If you want max thc then yes, at least a week.
Take trichomes pictures of deep in the bud not the sugar leaves, they lie. Trichomes on the sugar leaves turn amber sooner and can fool you into harvesting too early.
It’s been two weeks since I checked in with this plant (original post). I think it’s now about 11 weeks in flower.
As a reminder, this plant shows a lot of ruderails genetics.
I’ve been out of town for several days and thought I’d come home and see the plant ready. Instead it seems to have a significant amount of new pistols. I’m guessing it’s foxtails.
Maybe my light was too bright. It now is showing about 500 ppdf.
I don’t have experience with ruderails or foxtails.
The pistols look cloudy but with only a trace of amber.
Should I let her go and wait for the new pistols to darken? Or should they be cut off if/when the plant is ready for harvest??
Some plants are just prone to foxtailing. Turning down the lights at the end helps. But If you’re in the harvest window go ahead and harvest. A few foxtails wont hurt the quality but a whole bunch of foxtails might.
