Well i started the harvest with GoldLeaf and it was germinated on May 9th and planted in the ground the second week of June, and finished Aug. 31.
@Fepony - roughly where in the world are you located? 8/31 is a pretty early finish.
@PhantomFarmer i am in New Mexico @ 7150â.
You did better than I did. Mine was in on 5/21 and made it till mid September.
howed you do with the weather? @SmoknGranny did things stay ok? how about you @bluntley420
Not a happy camper lol bad weekend in NH. Extremely humid then down pour. Early partial harvest. No wet weight, spent about 4 hours putting stakes in picking through bud rot and washing. ILGM Afghan and strawberry at week 7 of flower. The three in the pot are all cut down. Still 4 in the ground and 3 Durban taking their sweet ass time.
@cj7huntngrow I cut all girls down on Friday 10/6. There was just too much rain. In jars curing now with b62 packs. Ended up with approx. 250 grams from 3 plants. Not bad for second outdoor grow but could have been a lot better.
I just finished trimming out the first cutting from Sunday. Iâm slow, what can I say?
I got a frost warning yesterday and called my partner. Since she didnât call today I think I can still finish the harvest Friday 
So, so far so good 
I was stationed at Ft Devens back in the day. Use to party in the W place.
Me too. Somewhere very close to the dead center of Mass.
Mine are all in. Had a hard freeze 2 days ago but finished them up before night fall. I am now officially done for the year.
I have a question for you guys. Are you growing in a shaded area? Maybe in the woods? To be honest, these plants look like they are lumen deficient. (not enough sunlight)
Rain predicted Wednesday here in So Cal. Trying to hold out for the amber trikes like @garrigan62 does it. But itâs time to fold em I think. Still battling powdery mildew too. Itâs like the rash that never goes awayâŚthe vinegar solution ainât cutting it. Just chased off a few moths outside whilst relaxing with a cocktail. Is there any relaxing to be had this time of year?
First growâŚgreat journey!
Good luck all!!!
Iâm up in Northern Cal, decided to harvest popcorn couch buds this morning, plants gone til spring.
Copy and paste this to your flies for future referene cause if you have White powder Mildew now you will most likely have i or get it next year.
Powdery Mildew
Mildew spores can be brought into the grow room through air ventilation into your grow room, your cloths, pets and be carried by animals outdoors. and land on the plant infecting other parts of the plant, buds, stems, stalks and leaves, also spores can land on indoor grow room walls, tubes, growing equipment, hoods, ballastâs, cords and etc. Spores can remain dormant until environment factors trigger it, like high humidity and cool temperatures, poor air circulation. Powdery mildew in vegetative growth is much easier to rid than in the later stages of flowering. Night time temperatures and moisture triggers spores to be released. The mildew eventually covers and coats the plant thus reducing the process of photosynthesis. If left untreated powdery mildew will infect all plants in your garden and coat your plants in flour like substance and cause leaves to âsuffocateâ Yellow and die off. If your plants are in flowering, depending how far into flowering, your buds will eventually become infected and will not be able to be used. Buds will have a stale moist smell and will be coated with a white powdery substance that canât be removed no matter what you do. Very early detection in flowering plants that have powdery mildew is extremely important, the longer you wait in flowering the more impossible it gets to eradicate this, due to this, bud size gets bigger in flowering and having high humidity temperatures over 65% can trigger active spores to start, not only powdery mildew, but triggers other problems from it, like bud rot. Not only will you have lower yield, but you wonât have any buds, due to the fact mold has crippled your harvest.
Strains vary in susceptibility to molds, just like other pathogens and nutrient requirements and care.
Prevent and Control
Symptoms of your plants having powdery mildew include: white blotches of furry stuff and white spots or splotches that you can wipe off, having humidity that is over 65%, also starts on darker areas of the plant and spreads to the top. Darker areas on your plant that do not get a lot of light will start to show this first, then when spores become active it spreads to everything. The longer you let it go the harder it will be to eradicate, late flowering plants that have this are extremely hard to get rid of, due to bud density thicker in late flowering plants, because of this the mildew attacks the buds which you canât cure mildew once it affects the buds.(also known as Bud Rot)Plants that are stressed from environment factors, or fighting pestâs will be taken over more by this mold, due to the fact itâs already fighting problems. If you see your stressed plants getting it first, try to isolate the plant and bring down humidity, better air ventilation and or negative air pressure grow room. If you have mildew with your fans running, you will need to take them down and clean them as the fans can spread spores around the room. You will need to wash down everything in your indoor grow room, spores land on everything, so everything needs to be washed with mild hot water and bleach solution. Removing infected leaves from the grow room is critical, carefully removing them and trying to not knock spores into the air is a challenge. Applying a bag over infected leaves and tying it shut then removing it helps out with not knocking up spores in the air. Making sure you use h202 on stems that have open wounds from leaves that was removed. DO NOT water when lights are going to be going out, doing this keeps water on the plants soil and causes higher humidity levels, this goes for foliar feeding. Water plants when lights first come on or there is at least 5 hours left of lights on. You want to reduce the amount of humidity as possible if your levels of RH are high, you want to keep your humidity levels around 40 to 50%, and anything over 60% is going to trigger problems. Also keeping plants spaced apart allowing maximum air flow in between plants will help minimize plant to plant infection. Using a dehumidifier can greatly reduce humidity issues. Using a meter that tells your grow room conditions like temperature, RH and time can help combat your problems, by keeping track before and after you water can tell you how much if any your humidity can rise after changes made to the grow room. Sulphur Burner is another way to prevent and kill powdery mildew by vaporizing spores in the air. (Do not apply sulfur when air temperature is near or over 90°F) Controlling your mildew outdoors can be somewhat of a challenge, you canât control outdoor temperatures, or environmental factors, Using Vapor Gard,Wilt Pruf sprayed over the leaves can prevent infectionâs.
You will need to treat your plants with various organic and chemical controls. This list will work for indoor and outdoor growers in killing and preventing Powdery Mildew. Outdoor growers can use Organics List below to help prevent Powdery Mildew of starting, even after it has started using anything below will help kill it off. (Note: When using chemical and or organic control methods, do not spray the buds, and for health and safety reasons, stay away from spraying around the buds if all possible.)

@Fepony how do you like skywalker ? im thinking of doing skywalker og but havent seen any journals on it
@Ocean_grower Iâm not sure. It was not as hard a bud structure as i would have liked. Hard to trim. Loved the look of the plants. I will know more in a day or two. I took samples in for testing today. It had a nice yield on all 3 plants i did. But to be honest, the TrainWreck and GoldLeaf beans i got here performed the best. Rock hard buds. HUGE yields. Small size. Appear to be very mold and pest resistant. Super hearty and an easy grow. Both are nute whores and love full on, all day sunshine.
@Ocean_grower well the SkyWalker now holds the record for THCA @ 27.6%.
