Getting fairly close to end of grow. Took sugar leaf sample and used microscope to see trichomes on one more mature flowers. Looks like 30% amber but according to breeder still 10-20 days left. Any comments on if staggered harvest is in order.
Still has a way to go. There are still white pistils forming in abundance. The last 2 or 3 weeks is all fattening and adding weight. I would go at least 3 more weeks.
Still way too many white pistils. Wait until most of them turn brown, then check tricomes on the bract not the sugar leaf
Give her more time let those buds keep fattening up.
You shouldnt check the sugar leaves. Always check the calyx of the buds and try to get readings from different locations in the canopy. The top of the cola will always mature faster than the lower parts. And the Sugar Leaves will always mature faster than the colas.
Youre doing an amazing job so far.
Yeah with multiple strains most likely you’re going to have a staggered harvest. Even in the picture of them all together some look a little further than the others. Once you harvest your first in a few weeks others should be about finishing in different stages
Beautiful grow. I agree with them there. Patients will payoff
Thanks to all , greatly appreciated, new in Virginia. ( legal 2 years July 1st. ) This is third photo grow. Last one has been curing 3 months. invaluable info. Everybody have great day.
Good thing about a staggered harvest is not having to trim them all at the same time!!
Happy birthday @Bluntsmoke Have a good one.
Beautiful plant. But, a couple more weeks and she will be Beautiful-er. Let her plump up. Then just check her buds for trichs.
A blessing in disguise.
