I’m growing a whole widow CBD auto and am on Day 5 of week 10. Plant is being grown inside under LED 24/0 and I have been using Bio Diesel, Rhino K and Alloevate in the recommended schedule/quantities.
I know that based on the ILGM site, this auto is meant to be ready for harvest at between 10 and 14 weeks, but looking at my calyxes I feel like I’m still a way off. Trichomes are all clear. I’ve never done this before and fee like the buds still need to do some fattening as a lot of late stage flowering photos I see they look a lot dryer/yellower.
I feel as though I’m at least 3 weeks away from harvesting just based on what I read on the internet but who knows! Any advice appreciated.
That particular shot looks like it will be ready in that time frame. Maybe 2 weeks tops, for that particular bud. Have a couple more bud shots and maybe a full plant shot?
it’s been under a light basically its entire life but the last couple of days I’ve been giving it an hour or two of sunlight a day (Southern hemisphere, so summer here)
@Genderexpert welcomed to the community and happy new year
Nice job, if you thricomes are clear you should wait until how you like you get hit by the cbd of you plant, I like to cut my went is 70% milky and 30% amber, I never do cbd but thricomes mature is the same on all plants
Next grow try LST on you plants go to help you on more yields
The hardest thing about being a first timer is that there is so much conflicting stuff on the internet.
If I’m about 2-3 weeks out, I am thinking of finishing off my nutrient-laden waters in the next few days and following it with 2 weeks of flush.
Is it worth changing the light schedule in this last few weeks? I’ve also read that it’s worth putting the plant in complete darkness for 48h before harvest. Is there any truth to that for an auto?
@Genderexpert wow I never had that small plants from ilgm
What soil you used? I ask just cuz I’m in hpff and went I started it was on 5gl fibert pots and it was 5 ft tall that’s why I move to 2 gl pots homemaker
My first harverts was 39g just cuz I had spider mites
My second harverts just with LST was 4 oz
Like this
Sour diesel auto strain from ilgm from buy 10 get 10 that was my first order now I had 4 more strains but I’m wait until my two autos get mature
Yeah that looks amazing - this is my first grow and I’m guessing there is plenty I could have done better. At this point I’d just like to maximise what I have and harvest at the right time
Not many changes in the plant since my last post. Trichomes are all still clear but all of the stigmas have turned amber. The buds don’t seem to have grown much in this time. Is this normal?
