Sativa #2 looking good.

Sativa #2 looking good.

Very reassuring to hear! I have been doing some research h and it looks like the leaves are probably falling off because Sativa #2 is using all nutrients and energy towards filling the buds. So there's not enough energy to keep the leaves from falling off. So for not I'm less upset by the loss of leaves

Re: NYC Diesel - Wonder Woman & Random Seeds

NYC Diesel still has quite a few white pistils, but she also has amber trichomes. I'd like to see her pistils darken over the next few days to harvest near Wednesday.

How long has the Diesel been in flower?

Today is day 64 (week 9 day 1) of NYC Diesel's flower. She's still got a lot of white pistils, but Wonder woman matured much faster. Wonder woman was also a lot shorter than NYC, but I'm not sure if that makes a difference

Practicing patience with the sativas

Watered sativa #2. Going to give NYC Diesel a few more days, harvesting this weekend. And are those buds thickening on the Sativas? Or is it just me?

I just harvested a couple ounces of NYCD the other week. Sampled it today. Real smooth, but so much flavour. The smell is very strong too, you'll love it. Unfortunately I had her next to a wild sativa that discretely hermied under the 1000w HPS and turned my tent into a rape scene. Ironically, I had a beautifully mainlined Liberty Haze I accidentally over watered and killed. You live and learn! Now I've got about 2,000 seeds of amazing hybrids, crossed with some crazy 20ft bush weed from Asia. Worst possible cross ever LOL

 

[Gauge Steel]

love the beautiful buds Steve. Cant tell you enough what a great grow man. Lots of good meds there.

Wow... So one male was able to ruin your entire harvest? Thats a lot of power. You're making me think I should always sick to feminized seeds to stay on the side of precaution

Thanks gauge, it's been great having you around to help me out and keep me company

Deciding between harvesting NYC Diesel today or tomorrow. Any thoughts?

If your trichs are where you want them then whenever its convenient. .

 

[Gauge Steel]

Again i am a newb, but she is still growing white pistils. Maybe thats the strain, but its still growing is the point.
I am with PW. Check the trich's.
I do know that my buds did swell a significant amount in the last two weeks leading up to 50% amber.
I did flush with straight Distilled for 10 days.

Agreed, I'm letting them all go the rest of this week to try to get as much maturity as possible

 

[SativaSteve]

Thank you Gauge for advising me to wait on the NYC Diesel harvest. She's still thickening up and would have hated to bring her in too soon!
Wonder woman is going to be trimmed today. After drying for >1 week her stems are becoming more stiff/dry. Will post pictures/weight tomorrow.
The dilemma: I leave the state for summer traveling this Friday. I would like to harvest everything this Friday, let them hang for a few weeks, and then have a friend trim the buds once they're dry. The problem is I'm not sure either of the Sativas will be mature enough for harvest then.

The sativas dont even look close

 

[Gauge Steel]

Frosty and delicous. I am envious for sure. Two weeks may be a bit long for drying. Anybody else have an opinion? You cant re-hydrate.

It would be a gamble
