Manakin Day 74 and came home to some great growth, still some buds below the canopy but too far along to prune them, we will just have to see! Hope you all are enjoying this grow! Day 75 didn’t make it home to get a photo, I’ll update tomorrow.

Manakin Everything is going smooth I think, some leave tips seem to be burning a little not sure if I should worry. Any ideas what might be wrong? These girls are growing nicely, surprised will how well they are turning out. I grew two plants at the same time one from a bag and one from weed seed express. The bag seed was an auto flower and I got nervous that it was ready and cut it way too soon, luckily I had this one also. Day 83 the buds are coming in nicely, very excited to see how dense they seem to be!

Hello my friend The best way to judge the maturity of plants is to look at the resin glands, also called trichomes. Using a microscope ideally with 100x magnification, you can easily determine the condition of the resin glands and avoid having to guess. Trichomes go through 3 different stages: 1. TRANSPARENT Transparent trichomes only contain precursor cannabinoids that are not psychoactive. Harvesting at this stage will not give you a very powerful product 2. MILKY Milky resin glands contain fully ripe THC. To get buds as powerful as possible, you need to get as close as possible to 100% milky trichomes. Note that it is impossible to obtain 100% milky trichomes, as new resin glands are continuously produced. Likewise, even after harvest, the trichomes will continue to develop. 3. AMBER Amber colored resin glands are a sign that THC has been converted to CBN, a degraded form of THC. This means that your product has lost much of its potency. CBN is not desirable in any crop, as its effects are more narcotic than a true elevation Me personally I like harvested ais around 15 to 30% amber but that is just a preference 😉 Good luck for your grow bro 👍 may the force be with you 💪

Manakin Still having issues with some burning tips and yellowing, seems like the ph came out low at 5.5. Trying to ride this out two more weeks to harvest! These things are turning out so beautiful!

This was my first grow so i was unsure about what to expect. I read and followed as much advice I could many thanks to the community here and at cocoa or cannabis. Very excited how it turned out, the buds are curing at the moment and smell delicious! Can’t wait for my next grow!

Manakin Grow diaries helped me keep track and I think I paid more attention while growing as I felt accountable to updating my grow. I wish I didn’t have to harvest as early as I did but I am moving and needed time to cure. This was a great experience, I don’t personally smoke, but I decided to grow for my wife that had chronic nerve pain and smoking really helps her sleep! Harvest is tedious but it feels great after seeing all your hard work pay off! Thanks again to everyone for all the support and guidance along the way! Can’t wait to share the next grow once I’m settling into the new place!

I have experienced leaf tips turning yellow (as opposed to burn) from being too close to a light source. Might be worth a check if you haven't already done so.

Great photos this week. If you're into playing in the GD games you'll have to throw in for photo of the month at some point with this diary. ✌️
