I think she is just about ready, I’m ready to taste the rainbow, what do y’all think?

ILGM Zkittlez at 88 days from popping out of the soil. Of the 6 plants this one grew faster than the others and started budding first.

I can see the sugar leaves have amber on the trichromes but I should probably wait a week if not two before I chop her down and hang her up to dry. Please share your thoughts.

That’s some great pictures, I think you’re spot on with another week. Nice looking buds.

@MoFo that all depends on the high you want.

@kellydans thank you :pray:, @Thatbaldguy I’m going for the best I could get. I see more color coming in, I am wondering if I wait longer if more colors will develop? I don’t want to pull the trigger too early.

The longer you wait the more “couch lock” you will experience. I like a more racey, energetic high so I harvest at the most cloudiness before amber.i get some amber of course, somewhere around 5-10%

I think you’re pretty close. I’d agree with a week, then chop.

@Jaysittinback What I really want to know is what I could do to bring out more color? I would love to grow something like this picture.

Yeah tha’s what they say. I haven’t repeated a grow with other things being the same but it looks like it happens

You’re in for a treat once that’s harvested and cured. Zkittles is one of our favs around here. As to that question that popped up while I was typing my 350R has brought out some purple on every plant grown under it. I haven’t been ballsy enough to try messing with temps or anything but there are articles around the web that suggest that and a few other things to bring out colors. Quick search will get you to them.

yes the proper light spectrum I heard about that. makes sense. Maybe why my outdoors has been prettier than my indoors (blurple). Also all the right micronutrients gotta be there.

Food coloring will work too. I was reading about commercial growers dying the flowers to make it more marketable. Seems like something they would do to sell more. Lol

I’d clear my calendar for next Saturday and get poised for a chopping party.

It looks like today is the day. I also feel like UVA add-on was worth the price.
