Bin dark almost 2 days??? Why
The story is told that multiple days in dark cycle before harvest pushes the nutrients into the soil for better taste. I know they drop it to the root zone for sleep so it’s ready first thing when the sun is up, so it makes sense to me. I don’t flush or stop nutrients like many, so the dark period is my move.

I took some pic of trichomes. 
I would very much like your opinion this is my furthest along
I’m no pro here I’m still learning so take that for what it’s worth. But they look good, I still see some of those shiny clears. Personally I’m looking for all cloudy and maybe 5% amber. And sometimes they seem to turn very slowly. I’ve been saying one more day on my Zkittlez for 6 days now 
Don’t forget that the leaves mature far sooner, so you’ll see amber there early on. I’m waiting for the toasted look speckled in.

Ooooo man she is beautiful look colors an resin… also I notice some of your leafs don’t have noticeable resin now that’s normal right ???
The better you get… the more frosty they get. Some of those leaves have trichomes a little deeper in, but mostly not on the long thin fans.
Some people on here grow what looks like it was dipped in crushed glass.

Yea I have notice… I think I’m 4 weeks in flower… … n to think I was adding all rather than jus flower I actually thought I was a week away lol yes I got some time cool
Oh yeah. You have multiple weeks before they’re ready. This part gets fun because you almost don’t notice them don’t anything. The plants stop growing and the only change is the bud swell. You get to watch them pack on more weight and get more dusty. In the last 4 days my lower buds had almost laid themselves on the soil.

Wow … that’s some heavy nuggs … Have you ever used a trellis net ???
Negative. Mostly because so far (even though I didn’t) I play with them too much. I put too much plant in my little tent. So I opened up my old space to finish the Zkittlez. My wife didn’t love that I now had 2 grow spaces, so I brought that one and a clone outside frequently which allowed me to shut down that discs completely multiple hours every day. I most likely won’t scrog unless I’m running a single plant in my tent.

I I was lookin into getting an using one but idk an I’m guessing it makes accessing ur plants a lil harder?
I absolutely love the technique. But for me at this point I’m still learning how much they’ll let me screw with them. The way I LST doesn’t seem very low stress
I have been looking into running a single plant with a net. If your lung room is controlled properly you get buds from wall to wall in every corner with some patience and frequent attention. There is a huge amount of appeal to maximizing bud tops in your space if you have the stockpile to get you through the longer veg. That’s what I’m hoping to accomplish by having several plants outside this summer. An extra month of veg doesn’t hurt when you’re sitting on 4x the product you ever use.

Yea I hear ya, I think I finally understanding thus humidity n how it work… Wish I didn’t have 6 plant a month into veg n only 3 to better control as well but I figure 2 per tent should b very manageable but by time the I can put them in two a tent they’ll b almost done lol being only a month behind but my gikd leaf fem n super lemon auto will b uus 1 per tent to control better
Humidity is a strange thing to adjust. I’m finding the way it works best for me has been controlling my whole basement rather than trying to control the tent. Then everything that gets pulled in is what I’m looking for it to be. Currently my heater is in my tent (taking up space that I want back) but I plan to build a stand and shelf that will allow me to relocate it but still use it in the same way.
I have a fan I got at. WalMart that is more a heater than cold. In winter I had grown in closet n it got freezing in there n to keep air flowing I used a heater fan n it worked not only kept air flowing but warmed up n it has fan , half heat n full heat I’ma find box n send it to u it is small n will save room p.s it pretty powerful
I’ve been using a digital temp oscillating tower fan. Which works great, but it still takes up what could be the footprint of a plant. I like shorter plants so if I had a taller space I could lift everything and put the heat under the plants in the tent, but I don’t have that option either. So the stand I intend to build will allow me to locate everything outside of the tent (other than my light obviously).
