@DinafemSeeds, Hey man! Yea they are officially all down and drying now. Two I did on day 81 and the big one today day 83. Gonna get some pics updated of the last week and drying hopefully tomorrow. Looking like a huge yield for sure :) I made a little bubble hash with the trim and it was very smooth, reminded me of Amsterdam hash, great stuff!!

@CoastGrower, Hey thanks man! I thought the same thing when mine were young too. They start really low and go quite bushy but once they hit about week 5-6 they do a big stretch for sure. I would strongly recommend LST with these autos. Good luck with yours as well!!

Looking great so far, but don't rush to harvest!! You will miss out on the bulk of your thc and weight. From what I can see, you've probably got another 2-4 weeks until you start flushing. The mighty moby is a beast and remember it has haze in it which can lengthen the time it takes to mature. Dont purely go off the breeders 80 days 90 days etc, its just an estimate and from my experience with autoflowers, the breeders always estimate on the very short end of the harvest window. Also, your buds will loose 70 to 80% of their size and weight during the drying and curing process. A soda can diameter bud can shrink down to a d -cell battery when dried. Happy Growing!!

@Dirkgentley, 75-85 day's is typical for our Moby dick xxl auto mate so your right on track 👍 The stretch looks to be over and focus has definitely shifted to bud production and trichome development looks amazing 👌 Looking good in here 👍 All the best ✌️ Mark..

@Ga4rd2en0er, Hey thanks for the advice. It seems like all three of them are maturing at slightly different pace so it looks like I will be doing a staggered harvest for sure now. I plan on setting up a dry box in a couple weeks and yea will probably push my flush out at least a few days at this rate. Most of the good diaries of the Moby XXL I have seen have gone past the 80 day mark so I agree I will probably be in the middle of June before I get them all down.

Those Buds look pretty big very nice I noticed some leaves in the bottom are turning yellow and some tips looks burn could it be you're feeding too much nutrients I have passed through a very rough time flushing mine and I notice a little bit of the same in yours but hopefully they're doing great I will be continue watching your development have a Happy grow

@Canadian, Hey thanks man. Yea I think most of the yellowing is coming from the underside is from my relatively cheap light. It doesn't have the penetration I would like but is doing the job for now. And yea I have been backing the nutrients off a bit and doing a semi flush. It seems they are doing ok. I am about 11 days out from stopping nutrients completely so I will probably try to ride it out. It seems if I just lower my nutrient solution slightly and water more frequently they rebound pretty quickly. Getting super excited now!

looks good but be patient on harvesting. Most flower for at least 9 weeks. Go anotheer three or four and you will be rewarded.

@CommanderCannabis, Hey thanks! Yea I know right this is the hardest part! Looks like day 80 is going to fall on June 1st so going to start checking the trichomes next week. I am looking to probably harvest at first sign of amber, but I'm a sativa guy so. 👆
