This is something I've been looking forward to for a long time. I have done a little research but I find it a better learning experience to just go out and get it done. Here we go!!
So many tops! Did some stress training to even the surface out. Tied twine & put a little weight on the major colas to balance things out. About to start flowering very soon!
It seems the plant does better with higher humidity. I've kept it low until recently and I can tell a difference. The buds are now turning from white to orange. I tied at ring to a few outer branches to help balance height. Worked pretty well but I've cut most of them off. So far so good! If anyone has any tips I would greatly appreciate it. Ive read flowering is a greater challenge then veg stage. I've used fox farm trio sparingly throughout the grow. Im not sure how close to the end I can continue so i gave a very low dose yesterday (6/28). Thanks for checking it out. I've thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of the new challenges of growing and look forward to learning as much as possible!
Thanks for checking my grow out. I honestly am not entirely positive exactly how old she is. It's smell has dramatically increased in a short period of time. I have done some research but still not sure how, when, where to harvest? This is my first time in this venture so I would greatly appreciate info in regards to the harvesting process . I've read basic info that is easily Googled so I know a little bit. I'm more looking for an experienced grower who has their own traits or rituals they may be able to help share. So far so good. It's been a fantastic challenge to conquer and look forward to the end rewards!!!
Should be the last week of flowering! I took advice n ordered a jewelers loupe. I am seeing yellow leaves now especially at the bottom. I've plucked most of them so far. Im really surprised at how well the plant has done. Just simple rain water was used n very, very little nutrients were ever introduced. Green crack or these plants in general are tough. The start had many different issues to tackle. It's very rewarding to see it through and know the end is so close! Thanks for checking out my grow!
The end has come! These are the last pictures taken right before I chopped her down. She really had an extreme fruity-ish type smell once I started moving her around to chop. I noticed some amber showing on slot of the buds so I followed advice n chopped her. It was a great experience growing for the first time. I'll be honest, it was simpler than I thought it would be. I didn't really have any major issues at any point. I would say in the beginning figuring out what distance from the light was the toughest obstacle. I dobt really use nutrients, mostly just plain ole rain water seemed to work. I used strings n tied down the outer limbs to the pot with clothes pins. This gave it the flatter more surfaced shape in order to give as much light as possible to the plant. Also, when I induced the flowering it barely stretched at all. I was surprised bc I've read they can double in size but it definitely did nothing of the sort in this case. I'll definitely use the pin trick to shape any future projects. Now time to dry and start the next process.
I hung my plant to dry for 2 days. I then put it in a mason jar to cure. I opened periodically each day. Well after 3 days in the glass jar I got MOLD. Well I tries to dry it out longer each day for the ones that survived the mold. A month has passed and it looks good but the smell is weak. Doesn't really have a delightful smell or taste. It's dank as far as strength in my edibles but smoking it is not very pleasurable. Can someone give me as specific as possible advice on the ENTIRE process after harvesting bc it's obvious I don't know what the hell I'm doing with the curing and it's sad to see some of the most beautiful bud I've seen not reach us potential
