Photo Period Plant

[Ice cream]

In the 10 plus years I’ve been growing it’s always been hard for me to check!

I usually check the tightness of the buds and when all the hairs recede

 

[Ice cream]

I’ve started pulling any large leaves as well

 

[bluter]

i'd leave for a bit as i still see a lot of white pistils coming in

Any estimate on harvest?

Any estimate on harvest?

looks like it'll be cannabis ...


edit : i don't follow days. the plant can't read a calendar. harvest is when it is ready.

Right on, each plant thinks different, she will know when it's time to harvest.

Good morning!

Today is Day 67 of flower. My guess is 10-14 days before harvest. Should I continue to feed nutes or just plain ph’d water the rest of the way. Please excuse my constant questions as this is only my second time doing photos. Her last feed was 4 grams of MegaCrop on Tuesday @Sueet @bluter @013 @garybo @GainesvilleGreen

Great question, I"ve read that if one is feeding with a field fertilizer, then you must stop now and feed her water only.
If you were feeding a nutrient base food diluted with water, then cut down on the food until just a few days before harvest then water a couple days.
That info is only an opinion and it may not hold much validity.

Good luck and I"m looking forward to hearing from some of the smart guys here on this subject, such as 013, or sueet, or....you know what I mean.

@Ice cream Never feed water only with Megacrop, you can reduce it if you feel it needs to be reduced, and the last one can be plain watering since after that she won't be needing to do .. well, anything. But if it were me, I would not do that until/unless I am certain I'd be chopping within a few days.

@garybo I'm not one of the smart ones, I just happened to have run mc for my first couple years.

 

[Ice cream]

I hear ya @Sueet . You mentioned that before. Sorry. I will feed until chop.

Good Morning

Today at Day 68 from sprout and was fed 4 grams of MegaCrop. Unless these old eyes are playing games, she appears to be fattening up!!!!!

She is really gotten bigger, well done do you have a pic up close so we can see the bud?

[bluter]

you're still pushing new pistils. that'll slow significantly or stop altogether before it is finished. there is a final bud swell about 2wks from finish, it sounds like you are just hitting it now.

you can feed til finish. don't bother going to straight water it won't help regardless of what nutes or type of nutes you use.

Here’s another pic from this morning at Day 69

I know it’s done when it’s done but I’m thinking next Sunday.

Take a little tester nug from down low and dry it and try it.... expect it to be a little harsh, but you should still get an idea of where she is in terms of what you like. If you like it, Sunday sounds lovely

All-

When to harvest is the hardest part of growing for me.....

Good Morning

Today she is on Day 75 in flower. She was fed 4 grams of MegaCrop yesterday. I noticed she is barely drinking.

Thoughts?
