I am at 92 days into flower in Purple Punch. Stunted growth. Very compact buds and very dense. Pictures show some amber, but is it time to harvest?
I am thinking of harvesting on Sat.the 15 July

How about pics of the whole plant? How long has she been flowering? Are we looking at trichomes on flower or trichomes on sugar leaves?

Still looks pretty cloudy friend, I’d say you’re due for a few more weeks of growth. I’m the same boat, buds looks beautiful just gotta stick it out
Looking great, but I also second @MidwestGuy questions, are those close up pics of the buds or tiny sugar leaves forming in the buds?

As well as how many weeks has the plant been flowering?
I still see a lot of clear among those trichs.

That’s what I’m thinking

It is 92 days into flower. I will get some additional pictures of the tricombs a little later.
Thanks for your responses.

Are the buds browning up as well as all of the leaves? With all that dead foliage I’d be extremely worried about mold and also just dead brown bud. I would have harvested first sign of brown bud.

I feel like I see some amber (could be lighting) but lots of clear…

92 days into flower or 92 days from sprout? I don’t feel like that is 3 months into flower.

13 some weeks in flower is insane, something had to have heavily delayed its development. Is there any chance you could fill out that support ticket? Anything you can’t answer just put N/A

And don’t get me wrong, you got some big, good looking buds but I just don’t see the trichomes matching your timeline.
As others have recommended, I would trim the dead leaves away.

Thanks Everyone.
This is my third grow. All ILGM seeds. Gaia nutes and worm castings in soil.
For the first grow I used only nutes in the soil before planting. I did not add any additional nutes. The GDP went 76 days in flower when harvested it. It turned out to be a very good smoke, estimated to be 23%., 37 inches tall, 5.1 ounces (144gr)
Grow 2 started of GDP the same way, nutes in the soil. After reading and doing research, I decided to add nutes during the grow. Shazam, even though lighting stayed the same, this plant went to 44 inches tall and thin even with LST. Well, the outcome was not as good as the first grow. I was hoping for a little better results, but that did not happen. 111 days in flower. Only 4 oz and the smoke was weak after 6 months of being in Grove bags.
Now grow 3 is Purple Punch. Full nutes from the 30th day it sprouted. The original nutes in the soil to start, and then Grow, Bloom, Molasses and Micro. I used the chart from one of the nutes manufacturer for guidance. I used a little less than what they recommended. Very small plant and compact buds.
I did not do a PPM check on the first grow. On the second grow, the PPM were too high to measure. The third grow, I watered enough for alot of runoff. The numbers were high, 3500. I stopped the nutes, ran a bunch of water thru the plant until the PPM came down to 950. Even with no nutes, the PPM kept coming in high every time I watered. Close to 2050 after watering and then I kept adding water until the number was close to 1000. It kept coming in over 2000PPM every time I watered. Also, water Ph changed. My first 2 grows I kept the water ph between 5.5 and 6.2. On this grow, I was told a ph of 8.0 was the target. So, I did 8.0 and the runoff was 6.4 - 6.2 with the PPM above.
That is the history of my grows. It seems like to me that the nutes in the soil at the beginning is the way to go. On the next two grows, the results were less.
I will look for the support ticket and fill it out in a short while.
Thanks again for your help, any ideas are appreciated!
Where do I find the Support Ticket?
@Adrjon99 where is the link for the Support Ticket?
My first grow: Broke Soil 115 days Flower 76 days Harvested
Grow #2 Broke Soil 146 days Flower 111 days Harvested
Grow #3 SO FAR Broke Soil 129 days Flower 96 days Waiting
Grow one was great.
Grow two not so good.
Grow three still going
Grow one had 30% amber. Grow two had 20% amber. Grow three has 10% amber. I will cut her when the amber gets to 30%.
Answer these simple questions the best you can.
If you do not know, or do not use something; Just say so = NA
Strain; Type, Bag seed, or NA
Soil in pots, Hydroponic, or Coco?
System type?
PH of runoff or solution in reservoir?
What is strength of nutrient mix? EC, or TDS
Indoor or Outdoor
Light system, size?
Temps; Day, Night
Humidity; Day, Night
Ventilation system; Yes, No, Size
AC, Humidifier, De-humidifier,
Co2; Yes, No
Sorry for taking so long to reply, fill this out and it should be a lot easier for us to figure out what’s wrong

Strain Type Purple Punch from ILGM
Soil that I monitor several times a day ( still kind of a noobie)
Ph on runoff is 6.2
The PPM in is 560 but out is high, 3500. I add water and keep checking the runoff until it gets to 950 - 1000. I have been doing this for 2 months.
3X3 tent, Marshydro TS-3000. I believe it is 150 watts. Indoors. I also have a 10 inch fan inside the tent that oscillates and moves the air.
Temp in Day 86 - 97 Night 75 - 78 in the tent
Humidity in Day 65% to 83%
6 inch fan with charcoal filter vented outside.
I have a de-humidifier but for the last 3 days it is not working.
Co2 No
Thanks for taking the time to create the info sheet.

The light is a Marshydro TS-1000. I put TS-3000 above.
