OOOO, harvest in 2 weeks roughly????

I’m shooting for a week. The smell is getting quite strong and people can smell it when they walk up to my front door haha. I’ll most likely harvest 2 of the plants and leave 1 to keep maturing.

Harvested one of the plants Today.

Babies are beautiful, dense, & purple. I had an issue with “airy buds” but that resolved in a matter of 2 weeks. I ran in to a couple mold issues but i cut them out and kept the rest of the bud..

For the nugget buds, i made a make-shift Drying rack by cutting open a mesh rag and throwing the nugs in.

Overall, looks like a heavy harvest. Next week I’ll be harvesting the other 2.

Room stats:
50-57% RH
65-70 degrees
Box fan blowing air out of the closet (like an exhaust) to maximize drying time but keep air moving.

Yes!!!

What’s up guys,
Im flushing and i don’t see too much yellowing happening. They’re in 5 gal pots and I’ve watered it maybe twice with 2 gal of water then another gal an hour after.
Do i keep watering even if the soil isn’t dry?

Flushing for about a 8 days now. Watered about 4 days apart while soil was still wet

Flushing is basically water with plain water so any excessive nutes are "flushed out" from plant and soil.

Peep this beauty. Stem got hit with mold so had to chop. Wish i could’ve fed for at least another 2 weeks! These would’ve been BEAUTIFUL

The bud doesn't look infected.
Dry it and use for butter?!

I plan on making cannaoil and adding it to topicals and edibles!!

Good
I'm sorry it got rot.
Keep humidity down as much as you can.

I’m trying but NW weather at this time is very unpredictable. Next outdoor crop I’ll have to initiate flower early to avoid this!

Can i feed molasses during flush? Tbh i think i flushed a bit too early and due to closet size I’ll need to push a plant back a week. It looks it’s been packing on weight even during this flush!

*i don’t own a magnified glass powerful enough to get a clear view of trichomes, so i have not checked them*

 

[WthAmIDoing]

I’m not sure if these are fully flushed, but due to weather & mold, I’ll have to harvest this week.

Only issue is low Calyx:Leaf Ratio

My prettiest one. Nice and purple.

This one was constantly attacked by mold. They’ve densed up but definitely had stunted growth but are pretty dense. Calyxs have turned purple/brown and that’s definitely my cue to harvest tomorrow.

First batch came out to 4oz!

Good one
Mold is a Bummer, but you made it
Have you checked the trichomes?

Thanks! I’m impressed with the first batch.
Haven’t been able to get a CLEAR look at the trichomes but most appear cloudy. The first batch I’m assuming a chopped a bit early since i get more of a head high

 

[AngryBird]

You chop at your needs.
I post these for your reference, so you have your pick and harvest when you want!

Second Harvest definitely surprised me!

Nugs are beautiful, dense, and smell fruity and gassy. Will be harvesting the last once these dry up!
