When to chop down? Pics

Hey All! Appreciate the help so far on my other posts… community has been amazing.

Trying to figure out when to chop these two guys down. Here are some pics of the plant and some of the best trich pics I could get.

Any thoughts? Looks a little foggy right? Right around day 50 of 50 to 55 breeder schedule. Not super dense on th mugs yet

I’m a new grower myself but your buds don’t look too far along yet but don’t worry they grow fast lol I’m not too far ahead of you on one of my plants I’d think you have maybe a month left on it but the main sign is to wait until 90% of the hairs are yellowed over and then microscope it

I like that you are low stress training the plant, it is outsidde and doesn’t seem to have any pest problems either well done with that, one of my plants is probably the same size as yours but I have it in a grow tent under a trellis net, I will send pics when I can !

@Morganpost135 thanks for the quick response… wasn’t sure since I realized I was getting close to the breeder timeline. They’re auto flowers so they’ve been in flower for a few weeks now. I feel you on hey aren’t super dense yet though!

they don’t look too far into flower, but flower goes by fast don’t worry about waiting long but you will definitely notice it putting on a lot of flowers soon

Nice, is that an auto? How far along are you? @Morganpost135

You still have a while to go. Theyre just now starting to build buds. When checking trichomes you want to look into the bud itself. A wireless microscope will help a ton. You can get one on Amazon for 30 bucks or less.

The pic i posted is about how i prefer. Mostly cloudy with a touch of amber. It all depends on what type of feeling you are going for. More amber % equals more couchlock.

Not an auto it was a bag seed I forced into flower any clue on what yield could look like

6-8 weeks left judging from those pics Growmie :love_you_gesture:

Yes, 6 to 8 weeks is a good estimate.

Hey everyone!

Looping back on this with some updated pics… any thoughts on if I’m there yet? I’d love some denser nugs but starting to think that may not happen.

Day 70 of Blueberry Auto that was scheduled for 50 - 55 days from the breader. Started getting some yellowing of leafs yesterday afternoon. I’m still feeding nutes once or twice a week when ppm’s drop.

Is that day 70 of flower? I would recommend not following breeder times. Guestimate 8-10 weeks of flower, this pics are from the sugar leafs and the trichomes will turn a lot sooner than the actual bud. You have to inspect the calyxes that form the bud Growmie :love_you_gesture:

The calyx is part of the bud, which may, in turn, be a part of the much larger [cola] The calyx holds many of the most important plant parts, including:

  • Pistils: The reproductive organs of the plant, including the long hairs called stigmas
  • Trichomes: The resin glands that provide cannabinoids, including psychoactive THC

The pistils and the calyx are most cannabinoid-dense parts of the plant. Resin is highly concentrated in the calyx and pistil, so this area of the plant that is harvested and sold as cannabis bud.

The calyx is what holds all of the juicy parts of the bud in one nice, neat package.

Calyxes are easy to spot in developing plants. When a sprout begins to develop tiny flowers, the presence of a calyx with a long, white pistillate hair will indicate the sex of the plant.

Id def wait another week or two and check again. Grab ya a wireless microscope off amazon on the cheap and you can get real personal with those trichs.
